The sushi / makis were not fresh. Food taste and quantity not worth the price

Enjoyed a great dining experience at Kyo. Really happy with our choice to come here and try a variety of dishes and drinks. Every bite was excellent, great quality beef and the fish/sashimi were the star of the night. Worth the price for our special occasion.

The food was somewhat tasty, but it was still miserable compared to prices and rating of this restaurant. And the size of food is disappointing.

Kyo bar Japanese is among the highest-rated sushi restaurants in Montreal. However, personally, I found the sushi extremely bland and did not enjoy the food at all. The service, on the other hand, was impeccable. I’m not sure if it was an off day, but based on my experience, the sushi really did not meet my expectations.

Very very bad quality sushi, I eat sushi throughout Montreal, and I think this one was the worst. They overcharged and gave very bad quality fish. Very disappointing.

A few family members of mine swear by this spot and I've always been very impressed by it. The food is delicious and I've never had a bad service experience there. Speaking of which, whenever I'm in town I always try to practice my French with waiters, and my last time here was definitely one of my better experiences with that! Turns out not immediately switching to English when someone is trying their best is actually cool! Anyway, my only gripe would be that since this place is so popular, it can get very packed, especially with large groups. We sat by the window near the front and there was a group of like 20 people in high chairs arm's length from us. I'm a relatively tall man and felt like Stuart Little surrounded by people at twice my sitting-height.

We stopped into Kyo by chance after our original plans for New Years weekend brunch fell through. The food is outstanding, and the service is just as good!! Julien, our waiter was as witty and charming as he is handsome ;) Seriously though, he is awesome. He made several outstanding recommendations including the pork tonkatsu which was fantastic. If you’re in old city Montreal don’t miss this spot, we LOVED IT. Thank you, Julien 🤩
