" I can’t stop raving about this place! DonDonYa has quickly become one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. The beef donburi was perfectly seasoned and so satisfying. Portions are generous for the price, and I was pleasantly surprised by how quick the service was. The decor has a lovely charm, reminiscent of Japanese cafes in Tokyo. It feels like a little piece of Japan right here in CDN! Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at DonDonYa was a delightful experience! I had their signature rice bowls and they were packed with flavor. It’s clear that they take pride in their food.

" I visited DonDonYa for the first time and really enjoyed the meal! The ordering process was smooth and the service staff were super friendly. My curry udon was delightful but not quite what I expected; I found the noodles to be a little too soft for my liking. But I will certainly be back to give the sushi a try next time!

" How wonderful it is to find a spot like DonDonYa in the neighborhood! The friendly staff made my visit memorable. I really enjoyed their tempura and the portions were decent. Although the atmosphere was calming, the kitchen was slightly loud which took away from the experience a bit. Overall, I'd recommend it to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)
