Gros wow pour le Hono Izakaya 🔥 Service écoeurant ! P-A en cuisine a pris le temps de tout nous expliquer, chaque assiette, chaque détail, avec full de passion. On a vraiment senti l'amour de la bouffe, autant de lui que de son chum en cuisine. Définitivement un resto à essayer !

Du début à la fin, Ao Izakaya offre une expérience irréprochable. La cuisine est raffinée, parfaitement exécutée, avec des saveurs justes & audacieuses qui témoignent d'un réel savoir-faire. Chaque plat est réfléchi, précis & visuellement impeccable.

Le service est à la hauteur de la cuisine : attentionné, professionnel & fluide, sans jamais être envahissant. On se sent accueilli, conseillé & pris en charge avec un réel souci du détail.

L'ambiance complète parfaitement l'expérience : chic, feutrée & chaleureuse, idéale autant pour une soirée d'affaires que pour un moment plus intime.

Clairement une adresse incontournable à Québec. Bravo à toute l'équipe - Ao Izakaya se démarque avec brio.

Really nice izakaya with a great atmosphere - very cozy & inviting.
The quail eggs were delicious.
The fried tofu was especially good: the outside was very chewy & bouncy, & the tofu flavor was subtle rather than strong, which made it quite unique.
Definitely a recommended dish, & a great place to enjoy the vibe.

J'avais hâte d'enfin essayer le Hono Izakaya & mes attentes ont été surpassées!! 🤩 La nourriture était délicieuse & à bon rapport qualité-prix & en plus, l'hospitalité & le service étaient remarquables. Le staff a été super accommodant sachant que nous avons ajouté une personne dernière minute à notre réservation & que nous avions un bébé avec nous. Merci à toute l'équipe! Une excellente adresse à essayer à Québec 👌

This was the best meal we had in Quebec City this visit, & one place we went to was $600 for two. Hono Izakaya was 170 for two before gratuity, including a few unique cocktails & we had a lot of food. So it is saying something. The food here is very good & it has good vibes & service. Standouts were the miso salmon & mono yakitoris, & the crème brûlée, but everything was good. Fair warning the okonomiyaki were pretty huge so don't order both if there are only two of you (lesson learned haha), also the meat one has very strong smoked fish flakes on it that was not our cup of tea but can understand some people may love it if smoke fish is your thing. Anyhoo thank you Hono Izakaya for restoring my faith in the Quebec food scene 🙏 I will go here again! Side note it's across from a big Eglise de Scientologie which is also a bit of a novelty to see for those of us that are small town folk at heart.

Amazing - & very authentic - Izakaya experiences. Delicious food, excellent service, & inviting ambiance. Every dish was great, but the chicken thigh & salmon belly yakatori really stood out.

Outstanding service, menu, cocktails, design. We were thrilled to find this restaurant in Quebec City. We love Japanese food & Hono Izakaya did not disappoint. Our waiter, Alex, was attentive, knowledgeable, friendly, & calm despite the large number of people he was serving. The cocktails were creative & delicious, the yakitori were perfectly cooked & delicious, especially the duck heart. Their take on the classic agedashi is light & flavorful, with a darker, umami-full dashi. We hope to return soon!

I want to begin by thanking the Izakaya staff for being so flexible in accommodating so many changes in our reservation. We contacted them by email & they got back to us quickly. They were gracious & helpful each time we had to make changes.

The food was excellent. The wait staff explained the premise of the restaurant is to share many plates across various areas of the menu. All the dishes we ordered were excellent. The tofu curry was outstanding, the sauce was gentle & elegant. The dumplings were amazing, we split our order & got half vegetable & half pork. The sauces the came with were perfect for the fillings.
The service was attentive even though the restaurant was busy.

Overall, I would recommend the restaurant highly
