Reviewers describe Shushuto Bar à Ramen + Tapas as a stylish, cozy spot with a vibrant atmosphere and a diverse menu that covers sushi, ramen, bowls and vegan options, with generous portions and creative twists like carbonara udon and duck mazemen. Drinks, including cocktails and saké, are often praised and the decor and overall vibe are highlighted as standout features, making it a popular choice for date nights, gatherings and brunch. The food generally pleases, though a few comments point to inconsistency or items that feel pricey for the value, and some desserts or plates are disappointing. Service is frequently described as attentive and friendly, with fast and helpful staff, but several visits mention slow pacing, occasional ordering mishaps or loud noise in busy periods and parking can be challenging nearby. Reservations are advised for dinner, while lunch and brunch are easier to drop in for, and many reviewers express they would return to try more items given the variety and strong flavors.
Très bon restaurant! J'en suis à ma 3e visite & j'apprécie particulièrement le fait que le menu change au fil des saisons, ce qui permet de découvrir de nouvelles saveurs. La nourriture y est tout simplement excellente tout comme les cocktails. Une adresse que je recommande sans hésiter pour ceux qui cherchent un très bon repas dans une ambiance agréable.
Nice place for a more chic night out with friends or date, sort on the mid tier pricing when it comes to Japanese food, but the food can be a little hit or miss.
Have had the tsukement & Khao Soi dipping ramen before & it was delicious, definately some of my favorite from them, their duck is always really good as well.
Sushi fish is fresh, rice is done ok.
Was a little dissapointed this time with the katsu steak, the'self grill' new to the winter menu, it's quite minable. There's not much meat & the coating is rather flavorless & falls apart, it was also quite oily & moist so there was no texture to it. The sauces are ok, the miso butter is delicious, otherwise the'soy wasabi' doesn't really taste of much besides light soy sauce, the rest is just wakfu mayo.
Stylish decor, amazing food, helpful staff. Always a pleasure visiting this bar. Drinks are unique & tasty. Prices are very fair too, so your visit there leaves you in a very good mood.
Le udon au curry au crabe… Wow c'était délicieux!!!! Mes amies ont aussi pris le udon carbonara, vraiment bon aussi. Belle ambiance, on a eu une excellente soirée!
Arrived at 17:30 on a Wedensday evening. Resto was completely empty. Was told by short, long-haired host that he could only give us the tiniest table beside the plates/napkins trolley, everything else was booked. We accepted, although we shouldn't have. 2 hours & $200 later, the restaurant was only half full. Thanks to the host for judging us to be unimportant guests who only deserved the worst table in the house. No comment on the food since I was very irritated by our mistreatment, makes the meal much less enjoyable.
Won't be returning.
It was fabulous. Noon on a Monday; there were only 8-10 other customers enjoying their lunch - so peaceful (more came in as we ate).. 70's music playing quietly in the background (our generation-we loved it). I loved my salmon tartare - delicious. He had the duck salad, which he also enjoyed. Our server was great. When we told him how much we enjoyed the music, he said it was his personal favorite golden hit's list. He said it was a totally different place in the evening - the joint would be hopping! I will definitely go back - but only for lunch.
My friend & I had a wonderful luncheon at Shushuto's on Saint-Patrick Street in Montreal.
We were warmly greeted at the door & were told to select the table we wanted. Our table service was prompt & in our own language, English, which we appreciated.
One of the real benefits of Shushuto's menu is that there's something for everyone, sushi, Asian bowls, ramen dishes, & vegan selections. I ordered the Mango salad with grilled duck breast, & my friend ordered the salmon tartare. Both were absolutely delicious & we thoroughly enjoyed them.
It should be noted that parking can be a challenge in the neighborhood of the restaurant, since there are more condo's are being built & reserved street parking is on the rise. Reservations for lunch at Shushuto are generally not needed but they are a necessity for dinner. If you do reserve for dinner, add more time to your commute to allow for parking.
Lunch at Shushuto was a great experience & one I hope everyone tries. I will definitely be back.
Unbelievable brunch! Best I've had in my many visits to Montreal. Mind you, I'm biased for Japanese cuisine. The cheesy udon was a surprise that I believe my picky aunts from Japan would have even liked. (If they could get over the amount of butter & cream.) Also, the steak katsu was tender, juicy & melt in your mouth! Don't miss the Sayonara Summer if you are into non-alcoholic like myself. I considered it my dessert. Price was well worth the food & art on the walls is so lovely. The koi & lotus flowers are all hand painted!
Take-out
First time trying shushuto, & did so for the vegan sushi.
It was DELICIOUS!!! The place has a really nice vibe, they were very busy (also a good sign) but still good service.
This will be my go to for sushi & trying other menu items
