Review Summary

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.

Very cool location! Anime art & decor everywhere. Food was out of this world! Hands down one of the best bowls of ramen in a long time. Gyoza was great too! Staff friendly & approachable.

Decided try this place on a cold & rainy evening as we were walking in Mont-Royal. I was surprised by the cute decor! The space is on the smaller side, which makes it very cozy. The food itself is also really good. We tried the Yuzu ramen & the Spicy Paitan Pork ramen. The Yuzu is very light & refreshing, meanwhile the Spicy Paitan is warm & hearty. I would highly recommend both as they are very unique & hard to find in Montreal.

This ramen restaurant advertised itself as a "Japanese ramen restaurant," so as a Japanese couple, we were really looking forward to visiting. However, we were surprised to find that the taste was quite different from authentic Japanese ramen. If I were to think of it as a different type of noodle dish, it was enjoyable, but it was a bit disappointing to imagine people perceiving this as Japanese ramen. We ordered tonkotsu ramen & shoyu ramen. The first bite of the shoyu ramen immediately stood out because the soy sauce flavor was completely different-it seemed to use a more fragrant soy sauce, possibly Chinese-style. It was a unique taste I've never experienced before in my life. The pork topping on the ramen looked very crispy, thick, & appetizing, but the flavor was dominated by salt, pepper, & oil, which made it difficult for us to finish even though there were only two slices of chashu. The soup also had a noticeable oily layer on the surface, & we found it to be overly greasy. Instead of the rich tonkotsu flavor we know & love, the soup had more of a sesame-like aroma than tonkotsu depth. Overall, we probably won't return to this restaurant. My wife, who absolutely loves ramen, left some behind for the first time ever, which really surprised me. For those looking for authentic Japanese ramen here in Montreal, I'd recommend trying other places. If you're open to trying an Asian-inspired noodle dish with adjusted flavors, this might still be worth a visit. We've only tried two ramen bowls, so perhaps exploring their donburi or other side dishes could lead to a different experience. *On a note unrelated to the ramen, the Japanese anime merchandise, posters, & decorations inside the restaurant were very eye-catching. As an anime fan, I was initially drawn to the store because of them. However, upon closer inspection, I realized that many of the posters & decorations seemed to be printed images sourced from the internet rather than actual merchandise. Of course, I can't confirm whether these are official goods or not-this is just my personal impression-but it was a little disappointing. That said, there were a lot of figures on display, & I did enjoy looking at those.
