Restaurant Makoto Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
JapaneseKoreanBBQAsianFusionSushiBrunch
Le Makoto is a restaurant that offers variety. The menu has a little of everything, traditional Korean and Japanese favorites. The food is tasty and affordable!

Start with an original cocktail, they are really fun! You can then order the most delicious and comforting spicy pork soup and an amazing fish tempura. The Deung Gal bi is unforgettable, easily the most tender and juicy that you have ever tried. They use quality ingredients that are full of unique flavors. A very clean place with a good atmosphere and friendly service that is also very fast. Honestly one of the best Korean and Japanese restaurants in Montreal!

Review Summary

Makoto draws praise for its welcoming staff, quick service and cozy ambiance, with favorites like bibimbap, kimchi jjigae, tofu dishes and teokkochi earning frequent compliments. The food is often described as flavorful with generous portions and reasonable prices, and miso soup and a simple salad come with meals. Several reviewers express disappointment with menu changes, missing items such as sundubu jjigae, beef seafood udon, fried chicken udon and the salad with ginger vinaigrette, hoping for their return. Some diners find the new side dishes less appealing and the chicken breading crumbly. A number of guests hope the restaurant will reintroduce elements of the old menu while still offering new options. Delivery experiences have shown that old versions can be accessed through the restaurant's ordering options, which helps bridge dine in and takeout. Overall Makoto is seen as a reliable, affordable option with tasty dishes and friendly service, though menu revisions have divided opinion and left regulars hoping for a balance between nostalgia and new ideas.

Absolutely delicious food, cooked with such care. The tofu teriyaki is my go-to: always good. The agedashi tofu is delicious & the Tteok-kochi was perfection! Crispy outside, chewy inside, perfectly spicy. Miso soup & a fresh & delicious salad come with every meal. This place is a wonderful find! Super yummy, affordable food, & the service is wonderful as well.

Très belles portions pour le Prix. La nourriture etait prete rapidement & le serveur était très gentil. Le tofu etait egalement tres bon. Je recommande pour des couples ou des plus grands groupes. C'est très bien situé, tout prêt du marché jean-talon!

I would recommend the Fish Katsu, Agedashi tofu! Always a solid choice for lunch.

Truly such a treat to find Makoto! We went for dinner & it was absolutely delicious & very reasonably priced. I got the tofu teriyaki & it was scrumptious. Miso is served before each meal & it is the best miso I've had in the city! The atmosphere of the restaurant is so cozy & almost nostalgic. It reminded me of a scene from the Office or something. Will definitely be returning!

One of the best agedashi tofu I've eaten in the city! The soondubu jigae isnt my favorite but its really good too, impressive especially since its a new addition to their menu. Service is really good & I can't wait to try their other meals on the menu because apparently everything is yummy 😊

Cuisine coréenne & japonaise variée & équilibrée. Les plats sont bien présentés, la nourriture est délicieuse & le prix très abordable. Nous avons essayé le Kimmari, l'agedashi au tofu & le takoyaki & nous nous sommes régalés. On nous a offert le thé & une soupe miso, délicieux tous le deux. De plus, le personnel est sympathique, accueillant & très aimable.

The agedashi tofu was delicious as well. & the Tteok-kochi was perfection! Crispy outside, chewy inside, perfectly spicy. Miso soup & a fresh & delicious salad come with every meal. This place is such a find! Super yummy, caring service, & affordable food. We can't wait to go back.
