Minimalist decor creates a focused environment designed specifically to highlight the interactive nature of the cooking process. A strong emphasis on raw ingredient quality ensures that every sear and seasoning remains consistent with traditional preparation methods. This establishment serves as a dedicated destination for individuals seeking a collaborative meal centered around the heat of the grill and the depth of fermented spices.

Review Summary

Restaurant Makoto is frequently praised for its delicious, generous portions of Korean and Japanese comfort food, often highlighted by dishes like bibimbap, katsu, and various soups. Guests appreciate the cozy, authentic atmosphere and the attentive, friendly service provided by staff, even when operating alone during busy periods. While the dining experience is generally regarded as affordable and high quality, recent menu changes have sparked mixed feedback, with some patrons expressing a preference for retired dishes or original recipe styles.

If I tried Japanese food for the first time here, I would never eat Japanese cuisine again.
The place says Japanese & Korean food but it has really limited items selection.

Quelle belle découverte sur le boulevard Saint-Laurent! Nous avons passé un moment délicieux dans cet établissement où chaque plat est présenté avec un soin remarquable.

Le ragoût servi dans son bol en pierre noire était absolument savoureux & riche en saveurs. J'ai aussi beaucoup apprécié la fraîcheur des accompagnements, notamment les tranches de pomme & la salade qui complétaient parfaitement le repas. C'est un endroit chaleureux où l'on se sent bien accueilli, & j'y retournerai sans hésiter très prochainement.

Been twice & really liked the experience. The food was super yummy along with the miso soup & salad. The price is affordable compared to other restaurants nowadays. Only first time we waited for long time to be served & to get our food but it was pretty busy that day & they only have one server in the whole place so I can understand. The second time there were not too may ppl so it was fast. I love their tofu soup & rice cake meal, was so special & tasty. Would like to visit more!
