Reviews describe Kazo Ramen as a cozy, small spot with anime posters, friendly vibes, and quick service, where creamy broths and flavorful toppings stand out. Many note standout bowls like creamy tonkotsu and yuzu ramen, with rich, well balanced broths and springy noodles, and some say the pork is well cooked and juicy. Several diners call it among the best ramen in Montreal and praise the atmosphere and reasonable prices, along with attentive staff. A few reviews point to drawbacks such as a tiny space that crowds during peak hours, and some dishes that lean away from traditional ramen in favor of a Chinese influence, with occasional comments about bland broth or overcooked noodles. Overall the sentiment is positive with many planning a return and noting the quirky decor, fast service, and a vibe that makes it a reliable go-to when craving ramen.
Came across this place on a cold rainy day & decided to give this place a try. Had the creamy tonkatsu ramen & it was amazing. Perfect level of savouriness of the broth. Chill vibe. Nice staff. 10/10 Definitely coming back for more.

Tried the Yuzu & the Spicy Paitan - they were both pretty mediocre in terms of kinda bland broth, not fresh noodles (over cooked texture??), very few toppings. A bummer because the reviews are so good, but this is far from the best ramen around.
TL;DR good, better than typical Kinton, flavorful not too salty, noodles good texture. Parking sucks.
Saw the high rating, decided to try it out. Tried various items & they are all better than your typical Kinton ramen.
The karaage was juicy & not extremely salty, fairly crispy. The dipping sauce was a tiny bit to the sour side. Pork creamy tonkotsu, the kids loved it.
Pork spicy Paitan, very flavorful, not salty, they give you a fairly thick piece of pork belly, nicely charred up. But if you are into spicy food like me, consider asking them to make it extra spicy, because mine was like a 1 out of 10 on my spicy scale.
Could use a little bit more noodles & the broth temperature wasn't high enough.
Tiny restaurant with delicious ramen. I tried the spicy paitan ramen with pork. The broth was very rich & flavorful & the noodles were well cooked. The donburi & the creamy tonkotsu ramen were also pretty good.
The place is very small with just a few tables, but the vibe is fun with a lot of anime stuff on the wall.
