The ice cream was incredible! Personally, I am a matcha fan, anything with matcha wins my heart! The ice cream was very smooth, creamy and rich in matcha flavor. There are nutella at the bottom of the taiyaki! The only down side of this was that I could taste the taiyaki was not freshly made at all. You get to choose between 2 flavors of ice cream: Lemon Sorbet or Matcha. They change their ice cream flavors all the time! Taiyaki with Matcha Ice Cream + Nutella Filling ($7.75 +tx) read more

3.5 I liked this spot but at the same time I was very sad when my Taiyaki fell apart on me. When living in Montreal this was one of the first places I visited and I was happy to because the service was nice, the ambience of the place was cool, and the food was pretty good. I'm a huge fan of poke bowls, so this place was perfect. Situated in the village is KAMEHAMEHA...cute name and lots of options here. It does get busy and they don't accept reservations so just be wary of that. For the life of me the French name of the poke bowl I had escapes me, but it had torched salmon (sort of torched at the top but not that Smokey of a torched flavour) and you could customize the toppings. The ingredients were fresh and tasted pretty good. It looked quite nice too. For dessert I wanted to try Taiyaki because it's hard to find good ice cream Taiyaki. The flavours of the ice cream change all the time to reflect the seasons (I think they had peach recently). The size is generous but that's good because the price is steep (around $10). It was tasty but the waffle was sort of flimsy for the amount of ice cream and kind of broke on me. I had custard on shoes by the time I finished, but alas it's nothing some water can't fix. I went back a few times when I was in Montreal and I'd go again! read more

This uber cute place is mostly known for their fish shaped waffle ice cream cones, which are amazing and change every few weeks if I'm not mistaken. You can choose to put custard or Nutella inside and the flavours are always a bit quirky, which I really appreciate. They are also super instagramable with the cutest decorations! HOWEVER I don't think their poke bowls get enough spotlight - they are my newest addiction and I can't believe I thought they were an ice cream shop for so long before trying them. They have a few options on their menu but my absolute favourite is the Kailua (the salmon one). You get to add 3 extra toppings (with no extra charge) and if you go there and aren't sure of what to order, here's the recipe for success: - Kailua - Avocado - Oignon frits - Tempura It comes with the most tasty spice mayo (which is not SPICY-spicy) and the combination of the crunchy tempura and the delicious crispy onions will make you want to come back the next day (I promise you). I got the small one and it costed exactly $12 with taxes and before tips. The quantity is good though, and they are very generous with the salmon. Plus the place is so cute with the millennial pink, rose gold and greenery it looks like it came straight from a Pinterest board. read more

When I got inside the restaurant; I was mesmerized with so much pink in this restaurant. I loved the table sets; looks like the backyards tables and chairs of Olden Europe. Plus so many plants around. I believe; we want a Hawaiian vibe. I never been to Hawaii ...one day hopefully. The service was amiable. I got hanauman bay poke ball. It was simply delicious with mix of salmon and tuna. My sister had sunset beach with salmon and Mixed fruits, which my sister devoured it. Desert time: we went for ice cream in fish cone. I took coconut flavor and my sister took peach flavor. Beside, the fruits and the candies, the base of the ice cream was Nutella. I thought that was the best part of this item. Definitely, our tummies were happy! read more

Aesthetically pleasing atmosphere and tummy pleasing food! Not too pricey for the large choice of high quality ingredients you can add to your bowl. Only 4 tables and some bar seating so if you want to sit you have to pay attention to peak traffic times. Loads of interesting drink items as well. I ordered a smoothie that was missing some ingredients so the staff recommended another flavor that I really enjoyed. It was like an edible yankee candle, in a good way! Only sad part was no fish ice-cream for moi! Will return when I'm in the area; I need to get my hands on their ice-cream! read more

I wanted to try a new Poke bowl place and this one didn't disappoint. I did a take-out. The service was fast. I ordered 4 poke bowls! I took the Waikiki and I really loved it! It had Red tuna in it. I was really happy when I saw that they placed the sauce in a different container. Sometimes the mayo sauce can be quite heavy, so to be able to put your own amount was a way better choice. The portions are just perfect. Although, the small portion was extremaly small. Be sure to verify if you want it that small. I will definetely come back to try something else in the menu. The staff was really friendly! read more

Not sure if I came at a busy time when the Pride Parade was going on, but it took forever just to order one spam burger. My friend and I had this place down for a while prior coming to Montreal. When we got there, the restaurant was extremely stuffy and packed as the shop itself isn't so big. Some groups gave up on waiting and left so that moved the queue up. I think I ended up waiting 40ish minutes, which was unexpected so my meter was up while I was still anxiously waiting. We grabbed the food and ran to our car to eat the burger. The burger itself was good and it came with a good sauce, but you honestly cannot go wrong with anything made with Spam and spicy mayo. I probably wouldn't recommend this place despite how cute the shop is. Service was too slow and nothing on the menu excites me. read more

Very very disappointing ice cream. For 9$ a pop, you better knock me out of my socks. I had the twist chocolate-passion fruit. The flavours did not shine through. They felt water down. The passion fruit was a bit grainier and was melting faster. The service was slow and they only took cash. Yes, the fish are cute. But really, it only feels gimmicky. Sure you will have a cute Instagram. But that's pretty much it. read more

Delicious poke bowls! The red tuna poke was spot on. They have different sizes depending on your appetite. It's a really cute trendy decor Hawaii retro style with soft pink and jungle Colors. The famous fish ice cream is something you must try! Why? Well not so much for the ice-cream itself but for the waffle instagramable fish cone. Oh and sorry to spoil the surprise but you can add Nutella inside too. You should have seen my eyes when I heard "Nutella"...mmm yes please! So why 4 star and not 5? The price, $9 for the ice-cream and the small poke is a tad expensive too. Service could be a little more smiling too! That's all you need to know! read more

Finally tried this place to see what all of the fuss was about - and also for that insta-worthy pic! Ordered a fish-cone ice cream yesterday. The cone was warmed and filled with nutella (you can also get it filled with custard). I got the passionfruit & dark chocolate swirl ice cream. Came with a small skewer of fruits and a small skewer of candy. The ice cream flavours didn't really mesh well together and I found them to be bland. The cone was the best part - I would eat that alone with nutella. I think that for $8.20, it's overpriced and they can do better. read more

Went to this Hawaiian place because of so many amazing pictures that are posted on Instagram, their iconic ice-cream in a fish shell (aka taiyaki) is so popular! I have to admit that the soft serve in taiyaki is quite expensive (around 8.50$), but it was worth a try! The location of this snack bar is in gay village, a buzzing and animated spot of Montreal. The interior decor of the place is tropical plant themed, with flowers and green plants everywhere. They also offer a variety of poke bowls, with all kinds of fish and the plating is simply amazing! Will get a try next time! read more

This is an ice cream review! Came here for those insta worthy fish cones and was pleasantly surprised by a gorgeous restaurant. The ice creams are lovely creations where they fill a fish waffle cone with either custard or Nutella. Then you pick an ice cream flavour. I think they change them up but I went for a mango. They can swirl the two flavours they have as well. The toppings are minimal but very aesthetic. I got Pocky and an animal cookie. The price per cone is a bit pricey: $8+ dollars but it's nice that they have an interior where you can chill out for a bit. Overall a good experience. The staff are friendly and the restaurant is a photo lovers dream. read more

We stopped by here for their poke & ice cream. The poke was great but we loved the ice cream - Mango/Passionfruit. We liked it so much we made two stops here before we headed out of town. The flavors were the perfect amount of tart & sweet. The decor is super cute. Very pleasant atmosphere. The service was friendly and fast. We didn't get a chance to try the spam burger though, it was sold out both times we were in there. So next time if were in the area. read more

Kamehameha - Hanauma Bay Poke Bowl - Hawaiian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

The resto I still can't pronounce the name of but sounds like something something haha. I've been wanting to check out this place for a while. The location is not visible unless you use google maps - I had to squint to see the display sign on the window. Stepping in, the decor is no different than any other Poké place - but I liked the use of fresh green leafy plants. There were only three choices of ice cream - matcha, coconut or peach or you could get half coconut / half Matcha. I went with the 1/2 n 1/2. The ice cream is served in a fish waffle cone (under baked - the dough was a little raw) that is filled with a custard or Nutella base. I really enjoyed the presentation of the ice cream - decorated with coconut flakes, an Asian pixie stick Cookie and a mini fruit medley brochette of strawberry and blueberry. The flavour of the ice cream was ok - I enjoyed matcha more. All this cost 8.50$ paid cash or card. I paid with card- BE WARNED, I chose no tip on the machine because I picked up the ice cream and was still charged 2$ tip- totalling 10.50$. I decided to let it go. Will I be back? Probably not. Kem Koba still holds my throne for sweet frozen goodness. read more

Most millennial, Instagram-friendly place in Montreal. The Poke bowls are ok (don't come with too much fish, but delicious nonetheless), but what really makes Kamehameha worth it are the taiyaki desserts. For $9.50, you get a Japanese taiyaki, Nutella or cream, a twist of their amazing homemade ice cream (2 flavours, depends on the day), a Pocky stick and a stick of fruit. read more

For the price of 8.50 you get the smallest serving of soft serve in a pretty fish cone. Aesthetically pleasing, but in my opinion not worth it. The soft serve I had was mango and dark chocolate was good though. Maybe for a one time thing, but for the price doesn't make it easy to want to go back. read more

This is a very dangerous restaurant. We placed an order for two poke bowls to take out and specified no mango because of an allergy. When we opened the bowls, lo and behold, both bowls contained mango. We called to report the incident but the employee just directed us to write a complaint, which we are doing now. DO NOT EAT THERE. read more

I've only had the ice cream here. Came here on a Friday afternoon and there were plenty of seats available. The decor is very cute.

The taiyaki was nice and crispy. I would return! read more

I'd been looking forward to this place since we decided to come to Montreal & it did not disappoint. Lovely gals walked us through the French menu to help us customize our bowls exactly as we wanted.

Kamehameha - Waikiki & Haunauma Bay bowls. Delicious! - Hawaiian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Staff is very nice, in a great neighborhood, and is a unique offering as well. What brought me here was the Ice Cream - but also got some poke as well. They have a vegetarian version so it was nice to see that. I'll start off with the poke - it was made well, tasted ok, but it's basically ALL RICE. I got the largest size of a veggie option, and it was laughable how much rice the dish was made up of. Maybe, maybe, 6 spoon fulls of the non-rice ingredients on the top and the rest of the big bowl was all rice. I hate to be harsh with a review, but it's too offensive to not let it impact my review. My tip to the owners: don't be cheap, especially when your vegie option is the same price as the fish ones. Maybe you can put so little on a fish options IDK, but paying 15+ dollars for a few cubes of tofu with some vegies and a GIANT GIANT bowl of rice is nuts. Next the ice cream - it was good. They were having problems with their machine so I couldn't have the flavor I wanted. Had Cherry/Chocolate swirl on the fish. It was tasty, but very average too. More of an Instagram moment. The Ube was DELICIOUS, I tried a little of it from my co-diner who got it in a cup cause it was too soft for the fish cake. I would try this place again perhaps, but I really hope they change their stance on how much rice they use in the poke. read more

The ice cream was really good (i got matcha/coconut twist), however, they just added the coconut mix so the coconut side of my ice cream melted really quickly, have I known, I would of took another flavour or only matcha (I think the cashier realized it after serving me because she told everyone else that the coconut was really soft...). The fish cone was pretty good but it was a bit doughty (the feeling when something isn't fully cooked but I guess it's good if that's what they were aiming for). The inside of the restaurant was really pretty and clean. The toilets are also really nice! read more

Very friendly boutique looking shop, wish there was a sign in front so I could tell where it was. I ordered the taiyaki ice cream with passion fruit. The ice cream itself was fantastic but couldn't say the same for the taiyaki. Not sure if they sold us an old batch but it was too hard to chew on. The ice cream itself for that price point was a bit pricey compared to what we can get in Toronto. Overall: Store atmosphere: 4/5 Ice cream: 2/5 Overall rating: 3/5 read more

Kamehameha - Sorbet was amazing can't say the same about the taiyaki.... - Hawaiian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

The fish ice cream looks really nice, the flavour was like how others rated, just average. It was more like sorbet than ice cream.

Went to try out their softserve. Flavours available were Matcha and Cherry. I chose the cherry one and it was pretty good. Got the fish cone, it fits a lot of ice-cream and toppings, so it makes sense it's more expensive that your regular ice cream although $8.50 felt like an exaggeration? read more

I must admit their fish cone softserve ice cream is very instagram-able, however it is quite expensive at around 8.50$ each. The cone itself was original but it's soft like a waffle, and considering that it was a really hot day, it was difficult to hold the ice cream up while it was quickly melting. Therefore, you have to eat it fast if you don't want it to collapse. Another thing I didn't like was that the cashier made our ice creams first before making us pay, which was not convenient at all since we had to pay with one hand while holding the ice cream. Overall, definitely a place to try once and take pics but for 8.50$, it wasn't what I expected. read more

I went there to try it because of the dragon ball z named poke bowls, it's said to say that it tastes like any other poke bowls. I thought it was going to be more fun and worth the price but it wast all that much. I tried their ice cream with the fish cones that costed a whopping 8,55$ and the ice cream was okay but the cone was not fresh at all. But the overall experience wasn't worth going for it. read more

Fish cone ice cream sucks! Tasted awful, cone was like a piece of rubber. It went straight in a garbage. Money waist!!

Worst icecream and customer experience ever. When we asked what flavours there are, the cashier pointed a French handwritten menu and said "there" with no further explanation. How awful to expect and assume your customers know French? I have a French background, but assuming a customer just knows how to read French is just wrong. Awful, awful place. And to top it off, their icecream sucks. The "citron et melon d'eau" was the worse icecream tasted in my life. Even McDonald's is better and consistent. read more
