Un monde fou se presse devant ce restaurant ; il faut absolument réserver. & il vaut mieux être placé à l'étage : le niveau sonore de la salle reste élevé, mais beaucoup moins qu'en bas.
Les plats sont délicats & les saveurs très raffinées. Le service est agréable.

Really poor experience.. food was super disappointing, atmosphere was uncomfortable, seating was unbearable (we had to hold our jackets while we eat…) & services was subpar (waited 15 minutes after being seated so we can have our order taken..). Avoid if you can. Neotokyo or Tori Ramen in Royalmount are significantly better options.

Excited to eat here but disappointing. I'd recommend skipping this restaurant. I've lived in Japan & eaten tons of ramen. My wife is Japanese. This is not authentic or what you want if you are looking for anything authentic. Not sure how they got a Michelin Star rating or why people would wait 30-45mins to eat here. Service was not so great. Food overpriced. Server asked us to wait in the basement near the bathrooms until a table was ready??? Should have left at that point. We ordered karaage which was the best part of our meal. It was well done but normal quality you find at any Japanese restaurant. However it was brought to our table with no plates. Had to request them. Server barely came to our table. Ramen was no where near the quality of real Japanese ramen. Chashu was diced which is weird & broth was not delicious or salty enough. Thin noodles were too thin & thick normal noodles you usually get for most ramen. Teriyaki was yummy but not salty enough. Overall disappointed with our eating experience here. Check came out to $85 which we thought was crazy high for the level of service & quality of ramen.

De belles découvertes dans ce restaurant, les portions à partager sont en adéquation avec les prix
Le thon & les carbonara Udon, m'inciteraient à y retourne

Food is great, however if you make a reservation you cannot order a ramen which is weird tbh, otherwise food is good

My favorite restaurant in Montreal! The food is top notch, however, there is always ridiculous wait time for drinks, & you barely ever see your waiter. Service definitely needs to be improved, & more bartenders are absolutely required for obvious reasons, but still giving this place 5 stars for the amazing food.

Tout était très bon comme on s'y attendait. Cependant, une table qui mange un ramen à côté d'une table qui n'a « pas le droit » d'en manger puisqu'elle a réservé… ce n'est pas une explication raisonnable ou même sensée. Gros non sens je crois!

Ramen has always been good at this location but with the years the service has gone from bad to worse.
No possibility of reservations & coming to wait 30 to 50 min on place. & then they assigned us to a bar booth when upstairs there was a full floor of empty tables.
Also another person gets a full table before us because he'knew' the guy that was handling reservations even if he arrived way later.
To wait a full hour & then minutes just to be seated at a bar with no space for your coats & legs when there is a full floor of empty tables upstairs it's ridiculous.
Hire more people so you can open your top floor & give customers the service they deserve.
You have the space & the good food, customers deserve to be treated well, no matter how popular this spot has become.

Welcoming staff. The grilled squid was delicious but I wasn't a fan of the udon carbonara. The place felt a bit crowded, I was bumping elbows with the person sat behind me

Plats excellents, raffinés. Personnel très à l'écoute malgré le flux continu de clients. Le budget à prévoir n'est pas le même entre les ramen/nouilles (peu cher pour la qualité) & les tapas (petits ce qui nécessite d'en prendre plusieurs mais ça vaut le coup, surtout les bao !). Pour un samedi soir de novembre, il y avait beaucoup d'attente à 20h (1h30) mais il est possible de donner son nom & revenir quand l'équipe nous envoie un message ce qui est très pratique.

Ichigo Ichie Izakaya is one of the best isakayas of Montreal, but they should be careful with who they put at the entrance: last time I was there, there was a young white lady who was the hostess at the entrance & she was creepy...she would look at you & welcome you if you are a good looking tall male & completely ignore other clients: I am not jealous & that is perfectly fine in general life & at a low-end eatery or a tavern, but that is not what should be expected as the hostess at a restaurant of the ilk of Ichigo Ichie Izakaya.

Vibes & atmosphere were good & the food was great, too. Service was friendly & professional. Our table was tiny though. Hate when restaurants try to cram tiny two person tables into the middle section so everyone's constantly walking around you & your table all the time. Not a good seating experience. Especially when you want to try several different dishes & have no space on the table.

Pretty good, enjoyed it & would go back. Heard about the udon carbonara, it was familiar, good but I wasn't wowed as much as I thought I'd be. Came back another time, much better, the black cod was INSANE. melt in your mouth goodness.

This spot is always packed except for super late at night. They do not take reservations for the ramen side of the restaurant, so I recommend getting there earlier than you'd want to eat. Put your name in & go a block over to a bar & have a drink & play cards/watch a game before being called in as it can take anywhere from 30-90 minutes for a table to be ready. The environment & staff are wonderful. Watching the kitchen work is like watching an orchestra perform; it is an act of art. The food is great, though I'd recommend their appetizers more than their ramen. Personally, I found the ramen to lack flavor, but the broth was wonderful. The fried chicken appetizer is to die for. Definitely experiment with your ramen bowl as the ordering process is designed for your own creation. I'd recommend getting thick & not thin noodles as I believe choosing thin added to my negative bias towards my meal.
