Ukiya Izakaya offers a lively Japanese tapas vibe with a broad, affordable menu that shines during happy hour and all you can eat options, while a number of reviews praise the friendly, attentive staff and stylish, cozy atmosphere. The food is generally good and varied, with standout bites like grilled eggplant, beef short rib in a rich sauce, tasty dumplings, takoyaki and sashimi, and many notes on generous drink selections from cocktails to sake, though some dishes can be over fried or under seasoned and a few orders arrive late or are incomplete in the all you can eat format. Service and speed are inconsistent, with some visits described as fast and welcoming and others marked by slow service or misordered tables, and a few diners felt portions or quality did not always meet expectations for the price. Overall Ukiya Izakaya is seen as a reliable, sociable spot for groups or casual meals, strong for drinks and sharing plates, but potential guests should temper expectations on consistency and dish execution.

Ukiya Izakaya offers unparalleled value with its authentic Japanese cuisine. From generous food portions to delectable beef dishes, every bite is a testament to quality. Their skewers are a highlight, crafted with precision & bursting with flavor. Service here is exceptional - honest, prompt, & always with a smile. What sets Ukiya Izakaya apart is its unpretentious atmosphere & relaxed ambiance, creating the perfect backdrop for a memorable dining experience.

It had been a while since I had Japanese food so I had a craving for some. This was one of the first options that came up on Google so I came for a dinner with my mother after seeing the high reviews. It turned out to be a great find. We ordered a variety of dishes as appetizers & all were delicious. I loved the Gyoza dumplings but the beef skewers were a hit as well. My other ordered salmon & I had shrimp tempura Ramen. We both enjoyed our choices. After that we ordered a matcha cheesecake & a yuzu one for dessert. While both were tasty my preference was for the yuzu cheesecake. The citrus flavours added a nice contrast. Not only is the food delicious but the prices are shockingly reasonable. Eating out has become expensive in Montreal post-pandemic but the prices here were what I would have expected to find pre-pandemic. Given the quality I felt that the value proposition here was excellent. This is a great choice when you are in the Plateau. I'll be adding it to my list of places worth a repeat visit.
