About

At Honō, it happens in the gestures, and in the consistency of these gestures. As newcomers to the community, it is with respect that we make our place. Saint-Roch is like a team: we wear it proudly on our jersey, and when there are players who fall, we are there to reach out to them.

Speaking of respect: for us, respect is measured by the sum of the parts to which we decide to apply it, and this is what makes our integrity. Here there is no discrimination. Respect is applied everywhere: to traditions, to food, to customers and to their experience. Fla-fla in our decor, we don't want it. We do not try to influence the client by anything other than our thirst to perfect the fusion of Japanese and Quebec cultures.

Many guests highlight the high quality and inventive presentation of dishes like the pork belly, skewers, and dumplings, noting that the shared-plate concept offers a fun and exploratory culinary experience.

Great service & good. We especially enjoyed the chicken sausage yakitori & the vegetable Okonomiyaki. Highly recommend having dinner here.

Ma meilleure expérience en restaurant a vie. Service impeccable, la nourriture de style street-food japonaise répliquée à la perfection & les saveurs sont incroyables. Depuis ma première visite j'y retourne fréquemment & je vous recommande fortement pour une soirée tête à tête amoureux ou avec des amis. Leur spécialité est les yakitoris cuits à la perfection de la manière traditionnelle, vraiment à essayer.

Très bon service, nourriture excellente! Yakitori de coeur de canard un peu trop cuit mais le reste était tellement excellent que ça vaut quand même le 5 étoiles Bravo !

As my tasting opinion,bowl with porc is relatively simple & good but I feel rather unbalanced to see the same shredded porc in the dumplings without added veggies or without any other ingredients that play good roles to be a dumpling. However, yakitori are as good as always, I recommend butabara & Tsukune with a glass of beer. 🍺 Perfect than ever. But miso soup taste so flat that need to be improved tasty more.

Incredible experience, some of the best Japanese food I've had in North America. Service was exceptional. Would suggest to anyone in Quebec City. The pork belly yakitori & karaage in particular are a must

Surtout un enjeux sur les edammames & certains yakitori.

Cuisson non uniforme des fèves, certaines plutôt dure d'autres plus tendre. Sur un bol entier ont voit vite la différence.
Yakitori, quelques enjeux de salé trop fort ( pas le canard, c'était bien avec la fleur de sel, mais les autres plus à problèmes) & une tendances plus brûler que griller. Dans l'ensemble quand même satisfaisant, je recommande quand même le resto

Another banger dining experience in Quebec City! We sat at the bar & were taken care of by the charming bar manager. The leek Yakitori blew my mind! Excellent wine offerings & a chef's kiss of Japanese whiskey selections. The staff are kind & very thoughtful. I can't wait to come back.

C'est l'un de mes restaurants préféré à Québec, les oeufs de caille, les comcombre & les yakitoris de saumon sont à se jeter par terre. Je leur souhaite une longue vie à ces gens passionnés. J'ai hâte que vous ouvrez votre second unité. Love you xxx
