TSUJIRI a été fondée à Kyoto (Japon) en 1860 par Riemon Tsuji, un maître du thé réputé pour son esprit de "YUWA" — afin de continuer à innover tout en préservant les traditions. Il y a un siècle, M.Tsuji a perfectionné la méthode de culture du GYOKURO, la plus haute qualité de thé vert japonais. Elle est encore utilisée aujourd'hui. Il a également inventé une boîte à thé qui préserve la longévité et la fraîcheur des feuilles de thé durant le transport, permettant ainsi au thé frais de Kyoto d'être disponible dans d'autres villes japonaises. En l'honneur de sa contribution à l'industrie japonaise du thé, une statue de M.Tsuji a été construite à Kyoto en 1933. En 2010, notre première CHAHO (boutique de thé) en dehors du Japon a été ouverte pour perpétuer l'esprit de notre fondateur et servir du thé frais à nos clients dans le monde entier.
Globalement, Tsujiri Montréal est perçu comme une adresse incontournable pour le matcha et les desserts, avec une large offre de patisseries, parfaits et glaces au thé vert, et des boissons comme les lattes et le hojicha, accompagnées de plats chauds tels que ramen et soba pour ceux qui cherchent autre chose. L'ambiance est généralement décrite comme agréable et typiquement japonaise, avec beaucoup de places assises et un cadre convivial qui invite à rester, mais le lieu peut être très fréquenté et bruyant à certaines heures et les prix restent relativement élevés. Le service est le plus souvent salué comme chaleureux et professionnel, bien que quelques expériences négatives aient été signalées, notamment en ce qui concerne le comportement d'un membre du personnel et des incohérences dans les boissons ou les portions, sans que cela caractérise l'ensemble. En somme, Tsujiri Montréal offre une expérience riche en saveurs et en ambiance, avec des desserts et du matcha très prisés, et l'envie de revenir pour explorer davantage le menu malgré les aléas de fréquentation et de qualité parfois variable.
I loved the matcha ice cream with mochis! The matcha flavor is rich & makes the ice cream feel light instead of heavy & creamy. It's super refreshing & not too sweet at all!
However, I didn't like that they added about half a cup of jelly, it was way too much & really affected the overall taste & texture of the ice cream. On the plus side, I enjoyed the red bean; its sweetness balanced the ice cream nicely, keeping it from being just bitter matcha with a light texture, & making it sweeter & more flavorful overall.
The portion is a little small, but this is a great spot to hang out, study, or just relax.
They have great quality matcha for the price, & it's bigger shop than imagined. With modern & calm room decorations that's black. & oh, I love their ice cream! I am a big Matcha fan, so I love that their matcha desserts & drinks taste more'bitter' & tea-like than your usual matcha store. They also offer free wifi, since there are a lot of students around. Unfortunately, I don't think it's a good study place there. During the many times I went there, it's often crowded & kind of noisy.

20251227 Update: More parfait & dessert images added.
2024: Tsujiri is famous for their world renowned green tea & this shop carried with its name is famous for their matcha dessert. All desserts created with Japanese aesestics. Visually appealing, look simple & complex in making. If you are first time here, I would like to recommend their green tea soft serve icecream products such as parfaits, or as simple as green tea ice cream in the cone. I am sure you won't disappointed. They also serve hot dishes such as ramen & green tea udon that you are rarely find in North America.
This is a specialty matcha café. They use dense brown sugar in the shiratama parfait & kuromitsu matcha glace, which overpowered the overall flavor & made it feel almost medicinal. Their yuzu drink & hojicha ice cream were really good. The café also has plenty of seating, so it's a nice place to sit down & relax.
Very well decorated Japanese place that serves drinks & ice cream, specializing in match flavors. The ice is super good & worth the price. Oh, & you can also order match slushie with ice cream on top. Very spacious so you can sit down with group of friends or family

Everything matcha is delicious...best matcha ice cream. Also very good ramen & poke bowls. Great casual dinner or dropping in for dessert. The parfaits are amazing. Wish they stayed open later in the summer though.
Had a fantastic time at this Japanese spot! The food was top-notch, & the ice cream was absolutely divine - creamy, flavorful, & utterly delicious! Can't wait to go back & try more! 🍜🍦
This place is going head to head with closeby competitor Matcha Zanmai, with similar offerings centering around Matcha & Hojicha. Tsujiri does have a larger menu with some other items not found at Zanmai however. It also offers more seating for customers, which is especially useful for the cold months. I went for the matcha ice cream & was satisfied with the texture & flavour of the dessert. I'm not a fanatic of Matcha but definitely appreciate it.

If you like macha, hojicha & Japanese cakes, this is a nice cafe that you must visit. The ambience is quiet & peaceful. Cake & ice-cream with strong green tea flavour & the sweetness is just right.
It's not easy to find an authentic Japanese restaurant in Montreal at such an affordable price, but Tsujiri is a great choice for us. I could easily eat here every week. The matcha ice cream is my favorite-perfectly balanced & not too sweet.
Years later, it's still as delicious as I remember. The matcha ice cream is just right-bitter enough & not too sweet, which I like. However, the cone isn't great; it's not crispy & lacks a smooth texture.
