Review Summary

Reviews describe Iku Ramen as a cozy, cat themed, compact spot with a welcoming and attentive staff and a calm atmosphere. The menu features bowls like Shoyu with chicken, spicy miso, black garlic, and tonkotsu, all praised for balanced broths, chewy noodles, and generous toppings. Desserts such as mochi and matcha tiramisu are noted as pleasant bonuses. Service is consistently described as friendly and helpful, with moments of exceptional care, though occasional understaffing or crowded times are mentioned. The interior decor and cat motifs spark delight and contribute to a charming, intimate vibe, while a few notes mention heat in the dining area or that some broths could be richer. Many readers call it a hidden gem and a top ramen pick, with strong takeout and dine-in experiences and good value. Overall, Iku Ramen is described as tasty, comforting, and worth trying for ramen fans.

Absolutely BOMB
Me & my friend had the Shoyu with chicken instead of pork & it was genuinely the most amazing ramen I've had. The eggs were delicious & the chicken was so savoury, the broth had me nutting & everything else about the dish was genuinely orgasmic. We had mochi's for dessert & we loved them.
The interior was so cute! We were geeking out over the little cat figurines (some had a pair if balls & we found that amusing)
Service was good too! There was only one person, not sure if he was the owner or not, but he was super nice & friendly!!
10/10, will be returning. There's gotta be crack in the food.

It was around 18$ for a bowl of ramen, which is an acceptable price considering the portion served. The service here is absolutely incredible. The waiter was incredibly friendly throughout the whole meal & was really thoughtful. He was giving stickers & candies to the children & even thinking ahead for the customers that were sitting at a harder spot to serve. Most surprisingly, he was holding the door for the customers which was lovely. The food itself was decent. While I enjoyed the nice clear & flavourful soup, I feel like it wasn't thick or flavourful enough to adequately complement the noodles. The noodles were also a bit too soft for my liking, I usually prefer the noodles with a bit more elasticity. The toppings were great though! I quite enjoyed their marinated eggs that were bursting in flavours & their grilled chicken that was prepared in such a different fashion than other restaurants. The chicken was sliced into smaller pieces prior to grilling which made the enjoyable crunchy texture more spread out & the chicken was also tender inside which was great. While I absolutely loved the interior design that was cat themed, I feel like the atmosphere wasn't as enjoyable as it could have been because we were suffocating a bit from the heat since the restaurant did not have AC.

Their Shoyu ramen (with grilled chicken) is the best I had all across Montreal. We come back very often & they are always consistently good. They now have a Matcha tiramisu that is flabbergasting. Ridiculously worth every penny everytime we go there.

Ramens : There are a variety of ramen, many levels of spiciness 🔥, pork , chicken ect. I personally found it tasted more like Chinese soup. Still good soup though. Staff : Super friendly, good service. Ambience : Very homey with lots of little 🐈 cat figurines, very cute. Price : Very reasonable price

Ramen noodles were perfectly al dente, chicken broth was flavourful without too much salt (the vegetarian broth could've used a touch more along with spice). Prices were very reasonable.
