    Bottomless Pete Reviews: Regashi

    What's it like at one of Montreal's most enigmatic izakayas to date?

    Bottomless Pete

    Say hello to Bottomless Pete Reviews, The Main's anonymous critic who aims to eat up everything the city has to offer, going beyond half-baked Google Reviews and influencers putting on yum face.


    Regashi

    7 out of 10

    $$ out of $$$$

    • Address: 820 Atwater Avenue
    • Phone: (514) 846-2040
    • Website: regashi.ca
    • Wheelchair access: Not without some struggles.
    • Reservations: Right here.
    • Vegetarian-friendly? Yup.
    • Vegan friendly? Not really.
    • Parking: Given the location, there's some, but not much.

    So, Regashi opened earlier this year in January. It's a new izakaya, and one that's completely different from any other izakaya in the city at that, from the family behind Tri Express. Chef and co-owner Thierry-Tri Du-Boisclair leads the operation after working alongside their father, the chef Tri Du of Tri Express.
