Fodor's Expert Review Kazu

$$ Downtown and the Golden Square Mile Japanese

You could almost walk right by this tiny establishment on this seedier stretch of Ste-Catherine St., but the line of people waiting to get in is a telltale sign. Popular plates include the tuna rice bowl or the messy barbecue pork neck—you'll be licking sauce off your hands, but you won't be sorry. The juicy shrimp burger and the veggie bowl with tofu, lettuce, tempura flakes, and a little chili oil on rice are both great options for lunch. Arrive 15 minutes before opening time or well after 8 to beat the queue.
