Neotokyo is widely praised for its immersive cyberpunk atmosphere that feels like a Blade Runner inspired Tokyo, with bold neon decor and a vibrant, energetic vibe. The food earns consistently high marks, especially the ramen and mazemen, with favorites including tonkotsu, miso with truffle, tan tan, and other flavorful broths, plus well liked sides like karaage, gyoza, takoyaki, and a refreshing cucumber salad. Generous portions, good value for the location, and a fast, attentive service are common themes, though crowds can make it loud and lead to wait times or busy service, particularly at peak hours. The experience is often described as memorable and worth returning to, whether for a casual bite or a date, with many appreciating the decor, the vibe, and the variety of options, including vegan choices. A few notes mention saltiness in some broths and occasional service hiccups or payment tip practices that could be improved, but these are outweighed by the overall positive impression of atmosphere, quality, and consistency across visits.
On est venus pour souper ici, tellement une ambiance cool mais en plus les cocktails qui nous ont étés recommandés par notre serveur étaient super bons! Cool vibes, merci!
The atmosphere was great, but it can get a bit noisy & the tables are fairly close together, so it's not the most intimate setting.
The staff was very friendly & the food was delicious. Everything we ordered was really flavorful. For two people, sharing one appetizer & ordering two main dishes, the total came to around $60 CAD before tip, which felt very reasonable.
A great option if you're looking for tasty relaxed dinne
Absolutely amazing. We arrived about 10 minutes after they opened & tables had already begun filling up. Our server was a very chill guy, very helpful, & he was a pleasure to have. I got the Tonkotsu ramen & it was was perfectly made. The noodles were perfectly firm & didn't get soggy as I ate. It was some of the best ramen I've had in North America. My friends also got the vegan ramen with the vegan meat add-on & enjoyed it a lot. The environment was also superb. Overall it was absolutely amazing & I would love to go again.
Edit: Second time here. Just as amazing
I had such a great experience, easy 5 stars.
The vibe alone is worth the visit. It honestly felt like stepping into one of those dark, cinematic video game restaurant scenes, moody lighting, graffiti walls, a kind of futuristic Tokyo metal aesthetic. It's edgy & industrial, but somehow still cool & chic at the same time. Not pretentious, just effortlessly stylish. The whole space feels immersive, like you're in on something special.
For food, we told our waiter to surprise us & pick the dishes, & that was 100% the right move. Every plate that came out was excellent. Everything felt balanced, intentional, & exciting without trying too hard.
The drinks were also great. I ordered one of their house cocktails with sake & peach (I wish I remembered the name), & it was perfectly done, smooth, slightly sweet, super refreshing, & not overpowering. Definitely one of those drinks you could have more than one of.
Between the atmosphere, the food, & the drinks, Neotokyo absolutely delivered. If you're looking for a spot that feels unique & memorable while still serving genuinely amazing food, this is it. Will definitely be back.
Plats délicieux, staff très gentil malgré le fait qu'il y ai toujours une grosse activité, ambiance chaleureuse on se croirait vraiment au Japon! On adore l'endroit & c'est délicieux on vous le conseille +++ pour les ramen qui sont savoureux!!

Got there a bit before opening, & was lead right in. Had a nice tonkatsu ramen. Nicely balanced unlike the uber porky one I had in Tokyo:) Too much pork is that possible - lol.
Staff was very nice. Nice vibe.
Wow, from having been to Japan a few months ago, they really were able to reproduce the Tokyo'food court' experience there. +1000 just for the atmosphere!
I had the vegan miso ramen with extra impossible meat & spicy sauce. It was super tasty & can't wait to to back to try the other vegan option.
2026: the second time was even better. Those spicy chicken wings are so good. The neotokyo beef bowl is also quite nice. The lychee mocktail is yummy. Service was better than 1st time also
2025: Such a cool vibe! I am curious to go back & try some other options for sure.
Initially wasn't sure if we had to be seated or seat ourselves! It was quite busy. Workers are great.
Wish we had better service for the water, but it was super busy so it is fine!
I did not enjoy the octopus entry cause of the mayo, I would have loved it without.
The noodle however were amazing.
The fillipino style clementine ice cream was awesome
Il y a un an, nous sommes venus ici pour notre premier rendez-vous. Un an plus tard, nous y retournons pour célébrer la Saint-Valentin ✨?❤?
Un vrai délice pour les papilles, un service impeccable & une ambiance immersive 🍜
I had the truffle miso ramen & it was really good, rich & flavorful. The service was also great, especially the hostess (I think she was Latina?). She was kind, helpful, & managed the wait times really well.
3 stars because it was super disappointing to see that their payment terminal suggested tip amounts based on the total including taxes instead of the pre-tax subtotal. This is not legal in Quebec as of May 2025.
Tips must be calculated on the price before taxes under Bill 72. It's quite dishonest to not abide by that & I strongly encourage the restaurant to review & correct this practice.
