Izakaya Kabocha - Montreal, Quebec

Went on a Thursday night, and for the kind of weather it was outside it was surprisingly empty. I gave it a chance, because I wanted to go somewhere for ramen that I hadn't gone before, but I was unimpressed, and honestly pretty disappointed with the quality of our meal. ... It was okay, hence the 3 star rating. It was the first bowl of ramen I've had for some time, so maybe my expectations were set too high, but it just didn't feel like it had much love put into the broth or the rest of the ingredients. I left the egg in the broth to continue to warm up and cook, but even then by the end of my meal when I went to eat it, it was still really runny. This is the first bowl of ramen that I haven't finished in some time :( I ordered the hell ramen, but it seemed that all they did was add more red pepper flakes than the other bowls. As an appetizer we ordered the gyoza, but it was almost over cooked on the outside? Too crispy. At least the service was good - service staff was kind, a little chatty, but they would explain some history of the place and culture to its patrons which I enjoyed. I would go back to give it another try for the service alone, and maybe a different type of ramen. Read more

Had Panko Shrimp as an appetizer, which wasn't that great. Tasted like fish sticks. Ordered cold Ramen and was surprised when it didn't come out with broth. Keeping an open mind we tried it anyway, it turned out to be spectacular. Great summer cuisine and great service. Pros: Excellent service. Creative dishes. ... Excellent quality. Cons: None. Had a blast with the wait staff, great dinner overall. Read more

素敵なの場所です！Really a nice place with good quality, fresh and tasty food. Had sashimi, and squid with mushrooms. And cherry on sunday shochu! Shiso shochu! So rare to find in province of Quebec! ご馳走様でしたー‼️

I have been waiting for my food for more than a hour, i thought they will taste fantastic. But.... I am so disappointed!! And the picture below is their popular spicy miso noodle soup, it's salty like I am drinking water from the ocean! I could said the only good ... thing they left for this restaurant is their service!

Took a bunch of stuff and it was great. The drinks were good. Had some tataki, maquereau, fried chicken, another chicken plate over rice and under the dome was tuna. The best was the maquereau and friend chicken. Cost about 90$ for two. Worth the try
