Ramen Danbo Kitsilano
Good ramen but not sure I'd wait almost an hour again next time. My friend and I put our name in around 1:30pm on a Saturday and were told to expect at least 75 minutes. We ended up getting a table around an hour later. It's nice they have the text system so it gives you a chance to walk around 4th Avenue.
I had the negi-goma ramen and added a soft boiled egg. My friend is gluten free and got the classic ramen with the vegan soup and gluten free noodles. She told me ramen danbo is the only ramen place in the city that she's been able to order gluten free noodles. Surpringly the ramen took a while to be served. Not sure if they had to make the vegan broth or get the GF noodles. My broth was really good and had a good sesame flavour. Noodles were good texture, unfortunately they forgot my egg. But I noticed a server and they brought one out on the side quickly. The egg was cooked perfectly and the yolk was nice and jammy.
I enjoyed it overall and would go again to try the classic ramen.

Restaurant Chez Claudette
Tried Chez Claudette after googling best poutine places in Montreal, and it appeared on multiple lists. The menu is extensive with many poutines to choose from. There are also omlettes (breakfast only), sandwiches and burgers. They do not have a menu in English, but our server was a friendly gentleman and gladly pointed out the top 5 poutines.
I had the Fermiere poutine (a top 5, which included sausage, bacon, onion, mushroom) and my friends had the montreal smoked meat poutine, and a burger that came with a classic poutine on the side.
The poutines were good, and the gravy was flavourful but was definitely on the the salty side. The large is a generous portion and included a lot of toppings... however we all found that the meat was also extremely salty. We all ordered our own individual large poutine but next time would probably share, as it is a lot of food. Did not try the burger, but was told it was delicious.
With so many poutine restaurants in Montreal, I'd probably try another place next time I'm in Montreal. However, seemed like there were many locals eating inside so that's a good sign!

Caffe Mira
Cute and cozy cafe on Main Street. I love matcha lattes and was super excited to try the Matcha Strawberry Latte after seeing it on social media and hearing good reviews. The drink is gorgeous with the three colour layers. Not sure if I was supposed to mix the drink before drinking but I left it as it and then mixed it about half way through.
The first sips were delicious and the strawberry puree was really good. However about half way I wasn't loving the drink as much. The matcha flavour is very light compared to other places and the drink ended up just tasting like milk. I subbed for oat milk for $1 extra and my drink was over $8!! Decent drink to try but not worth the price in my opinion.
