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.

Petit restaurant avec peu de places assises. La nourriture y est vraiment délicieuse, leurs bouillons sont vraiment goûteux. Je conseille les ramen Black Garlic, c'est rempli de saveurs!

Delicious ramen! Went for a late dinner with some friends & good thing because it's a small place with only 3 tables & 2 high top tables facing the windows.

The quality & quantity is the best here. The black garlic ramen was filing, flavourful, & tasty. We also got the karaage & edamame to share. Really good. I especially liked that the edamame was salted & warm & the karaage was crispy & fresh. Our server was also super nice & attentive.

The cafe is also decorated with all things cat! Very cute.

Had an amazing experience at iku ramen! First the food was absolutely amazing i ate every last kernal of corn in my delicious black garlic ramen with golden noodles 🍜 it was a mouthful of deliciousness with every single bite. It might sound like an exaggeration but trust me ... it was that good.

I love ramen soup ... in this place it is outstanding. &! The place is cool with little miniature toy cat figures making cute poses placed around the dining area.

Great place for a date & planning to bring one soon. Follow me @jackbrown9120 on all social media outlets.

Probably one of the best ramen places in Montreal. My kid loves ramen, so we checked out most ramen restaurants in town, & this one is one of the best. It is a small restaurant with one person seeming to be both the cook & the server. But the ramen was very good. I recommend the garlic oil option.

Lovely & cozy place, ideal for a ramen stop in the midst of the winter cold. I enjoyed the fragrant black garlic ramen & the shrimp tempura was perfectly fried & crispy.

I am a japanese ramen fan, I will do anything to try out all of them in Montreal! This place being located on the busy wellington street, this cute small place where I found a lot of tiny small cat figures ( very cute actually) you will have to street park We ordered the tonkatsu ramen & the black garlic ramen. the noodles were not soggy, they tasted more like handmade noodles to me just perfect the way i like them to be. the ingredients inside were generously given, the pork, judas ears mushrooms, the marinated eggs(so delicious) but a little too many corns though? maybe for those who love corns they wouldn't mind as for the broth i think it could be a little better, it was a little blend not much flavor. i wished to be more thicker? But we still enjoyed our bowl & left happy Will i still go back? yes for sure i would love to try their other bowls Thank you for the waiter who was kind enough to clean the mess on our table, good service!

We had miso ramen, udon & black garlic & they were all fabulous. We also ordered the edamame which was mediocre but the karaage was excellent. They were very accommodating to our large group with multiple kids.
