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.
This small, unassuming place serves up a really tasty ramen. The portion was smaller than expected but perfectly reasonable, especially if paired with one of there classic entrees.

Brought the whole family in, including my 6-year old. All four of us felt like our food was 5 star! The atmosphere with all the Japanese Pop culture is fantastic, & the service from both the owner & his staff was really excellent.
Extremely good service.
The waiter immediately served water.
I suggest the creamy tonkutse, so delicious & HUGE portions for a very reasonable price.
I suggest it.
Our food came out in 5 minutes
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.
