There are also sushi, chips, bubble tea and etc. That night my rideshare dropped me off close by; therefore, I could not say no to not going. This time I got the Nem Nuong but the Cha Lua and pate banh-mi is great as well. I find it a bit more "authentic". After 9pm, all the food in containers are 30% off. I forgot about that-got their at 9:03pm and a swarm of people rushed in. I am removing one star because I was charged for a 10 inch banh-mi but the lady used the 7 inch. Also, they are only $7.75!!!

Such an amazing evening! First night in Montreal from Seattle, and my girls wanted Sushi. We were…read morelucky enough to find Kyo! Our reservation was for 19:45, but we were starving by 18:45, so we stopped by to see if there was availability. They were able to accommodate us right away. The hostess was very polite, and our server was very helpful. We had the Miso soup, edamame, and Yaki Udon to start; 5/5 for our starters! For our mains, we shared the Snake and Unagi rolls; both were 5/5. We wish we had ordered the Rainbow roll instead of the Snake, but my daughters love spicy. If we had bigger tummies, we would have ordered both. Cocktails and mocktails were on point! The mochie for something sweet at the end was delicious! Thanks for such a lovely evening out in your beautiful city!

I got the Salmon and Tuna poke bowl and vegetarian spring rolls. For the price and quantity of food, I wasn't very impressed. Not sure if this is how poke bowls are done here, but I'm used to much more white rice, while this was primarily seaweed/salad as the base. None of the flavors or ingredients were standouts and I have had much better poke bowls elsewhere (in the States). The spring rolls tasted like they were just heated from frozen and had a weird aftertaste. The filling was basically mush and didn't have my fresh vegetables. Overall, I would say this is a decent choice for a close meal after touring the area, but nothing outstanding in my opinion. Price: 3/5 Taste: 3/5 Value: 3/5

Once inside you'll see a charming bar surrounded by tables, some with cushions! If you decide to go outside, there's a lovely garden terrasse with lights and plants everywhere! We ordered 3 entrees, a main dish, and a side of edamame beans. All of the dishes arrived one by one about 15 minutes after ordering, which really impressed me considering how fast the restaurant was filling up! Every dish we ordered was delicious, the chicken pad thai had a lot of chicken and egg in it which I really enjoyed, and the sauce was tangy and helped bring all the other ingredients to life! The calamari, crab cakes, and tuna tataki were all very impressive dishes, just big enough to enjoy without filling you too quickly. The edamame beans were tossed in a soy based sauce and caramelized onions, which I had not seen done before. And guess what: LOVED it! Quick and friendly service, incredible atmosphere, and worth a second trip!

Went to this bar for the first time with friends on a rainy day so we had thought maybe our…read morereservation would be pushed back since we weren't sure if the bar had a covered terrasse ( which it did ). We were also late and I had called the number and left them a voicemail to advise them & when I got there and mentioned this , the host looked at me weird , which I didn't get why and went to see if they can find us another table since they had given our table away since they thought we were going to be a no show ( since they didn't check the phone msg). We got to our table, the waiter was nice and super helpful for the dinner . We had ordered the edamame and chicken gyoza for appetizers. The edamame had a quick since it had a blend of spices to make this Japanese spice & the gyozas were succulent. Mains : my friends had orders the tofu salad and tartare , and I had ordered the bibimbap. Mine was as expected , delicious & so was the tartare. The only main complaint my friend had was for the the tofu salad as there was barely any tofu in the salad and more of the kale . Drinks : I ordered a regular mojito ( not the one on the menu but the classic), one friend ordered a non alcoholic mojito & the other didn't order anything to drink. She had wanted an ice tea since she was driving and the bar actually had everything but ice tea , which was a first . The reason why it's a 3 star is not solely based on the drink selection, but mainly how we were greeted and dealt with at the beginning. I would definitely go back eventually to try again when it isn't raining

I was yearning for Asian food and I came across this menu online and noticed the Thai options they…read morehad, so I walked here a few blocks from the hotel I was staying in. They were moderately busy on a Tuesday night and they greeted and seated me immediately. My server was great, very friendly and helpful. The menu had a couple of items that looked appetizing, such as the Tom Yum soup and curry chicken stir fry. I started with jasmine hot tea, which was excellent and warming after the walk in 2 degree weather. The soup was warm as well, but flavors weren't as authentic as I expected. It was decent though. Next up was the curry chicken stir fry and it was really bland, so I used a bunch of their hot sauce to spike it up. I've never been to a Thai spot that didn't have birds eye chili and Prik nam pla, as their hot sauce was a form of sriracha. It was spicy, but not much flavor. Overall, the venue was beautifully decorated and service was great, but food mediocre.

Think lots of simple wood furnishings and Indie Tunes mellowing you out. To be honest, I've had better iterations of these dishes elsewhere, but I still think the food was good, but it was the cozy atmosphere that took it over the edge. It's not for everyone- and that's part of what makes DonDonYa unique. I had the Peach Yogurt drink which was a lovely accompaniment to my meal of cold noodles with peanut sauce and the Okonomoyaki. The Okonomiyaki was a bit overcooked, but still good. The noodles were nice too, but lacking the depth of flavor I've had in other renditions of this dish. Overall, the food here is good- more like 3 star territory, but I was really enamored with how cool the place was, so I'd say 4 stars is where I feel DonDonYa lands.

Cute, quiet, cozy but still very spacious "cafe" with tons of drinks to choose from. The actual food menu felt a little short though. We ordered: Majesthe Karaage ($8.5) Chicken Katsu Curry Omurice ($15) Lu Rou Fan ($12) Garlic Sausage Fried Rice ($16) Oolong green tea ($6.5) Lingonberry Lemonade ($6.5) We chose most of the recommended dishes on the menu and I'm glad we did because they were really good! The Karaage was a little salty but the sauce paired really well with it. The chicken Katsu was so good, I loved how crispy it was. The rice portion is small though but the dish looked so cute with the egg on it! The Lu rou fan was light on the stomach despite it being rice heavy and the ingredients went well with each other. It's such a perfect comfort dish. The fried rice was my favorite! The flavor was on point! I would come back just for this!
