Kazu - Montreal, Quebec

I love coming to Kazu regardless of the wait. The service is great, with servers always happy to have you. My favorite drink is the yuzu beer, and the food is phenomenal. Highlights include the shrimp burger, Bibimbap, and Okonomiyaki. Be sure to try their specials on the wall.

This place is always packed so expect a long line. I ordered takeout instead and it was ready in 20mins. You can even call ahead to pick up your order and skip the line. They have a wall of specials for the week and all the dishes are so creative ... and unique. My favourite dishes were the fried green beans with truffle dip and the tuna salmon bowl! The eel hand rolls were also very tasty. The eggplant dip was a bit bland and from the other times I have eaten here it had been better. Maybe an off day. Will definitely be back for takeout!

One of the few restaurants that I just keep coming back to. Amazing food, amazing presentation, amazing service. The chef owner and his are are both so heartwarming and passionate about their work and it really shows in the food they serve! I remember asking the owner if he ever planned ... on franchising since the restaurant was getting ever so popular and he said no because he needs to be there to supervise in order to maintain overall quality. Much respect for his work ethic, I hope they keep on flourishing. Read more

Kazu is an absolute gem. Easily the most authentic Japanese cuisine in the entire city. The place has a small Tokyo bar style atmosphere and is complemented well by absolutely sublime service. Seriously, every server is attentive, smiling, and they move with the speed of sound. The food is incredible. ... My wife and I have been to Japan twice now and this food comes closest to getting us so nostalgic and excited to go back. It's comforting, warm, and delicious. Best part is the price! For four shared appetizers, two mains, 4 shots of yuzu sake, and 1 ginger Sapporo, I was floored to see the bill be just over $100. We were so stuffed we even took a doggie bag. So incredibly worth it! Yes, the lines can often be long, but I now see exactly why this is the case. This was a phenomenal experience and looking forward to coming back soon. Read more

Amazing food also comes with their amazing services. The curry chicken was delicious. The rib was super well marinated and so tender that it comes right off the bone. The cod was a very big portion and was grilled to perfection. We only has the stomach to try two of their chicken brochettes, ... but would certainly want to try more. Finaly, the staff was amazing, the services was quick and efficient. Read more
