Je voulais tester ce restaurant & je ne suis absolument pas déçue!
Décoration originale. Line up pas trop longue & assez rapide pour nous trouver une table. Le serveur souriant, serviable, chaleureux & aux petits soins (j'aurai dû demander son prénom). Son collègue qui nous apportait les plats, est d'une politesse exquise a la nippone. Très très agréablemt surprise !!! J'avais l'impression d'être au Japon !!! Wow !!! Wow !!! Wow !!! (Dommage j'aurai dû aussi lui demander son prénom).
Drink: sans alcool possible
nourriture : bonne
portion : généreuse
On peut discuter sans crier ou hurler 👍🏻
Délicieux! J'ai pris la soupe Hakata?, je pense que c'est nouveau dans leur menu, bref j'ai adoré le bouillon jusqu'à la dernière goutte. Si j'étais chez moi, j'aurais léché le bol. La petit drink sans alcool (Ume?) était délicat & refraîchissant. Que dire de l'emplacement tellement bien décoré, dans un stylr cyberpunk japonais. J'y retourne avec mon amoureux la prochaine fois! Quelle belle découverte!
Overall we had such an amazing experience. The waiter was kind & offered suggestions to add to our drinks order, as my partner likes yuzu. I got the H20 & loved the taste of Sake & Mezcal.
The ramen I had was a rich, fatty & salty broth with amazing taste & fresh noodles. Definitely delicious but if you're looking for a healthy option try the Miso!
My partner had their signature mazesoba & it was AMAZING with fresh herbs & meat.
For this price point in this neighbourhood I'd highly recommend it. 10/10 value too.

The open kitchen concept adds & extra dimension to the experience they're offering at Neotokyo.
The aesthetic makes you feel like you're stepping off the streets of Montreal into a local ramen shop in Tokyo!
The drinks are great & pair well with the food they offer. If you're in the area or not, it's worth trying.
Before myself & the group of friends I went with left we were already planning to come back again shortly. Not only is a fun & cool place to check out the food is one of the best bites I've had in Montreal.
The ramen was OK but nothing special. The place itself is cool. However, I was disappointed by the cocktail. As you see, there was too much ice for 12 Cad. Actually, it was not comfortable to drink because of the ice. When I asked for the straw, I got it served the way I am holding. So not very hygienic at all. There was no individual packaging or anything. The waiter was literally holding it like this..
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.
We had to wait 1h15min for a table, but they told us right away it would be between 1-1.5 hours. Left my number, went for a walk, & got the callback exactly on time-no complaints for a trendy Saturday night.
Once inside, you're completely immersed in Neotokyo's cyberpunk ramen world. Neon signs, a retro phone booth, even the graffiti in the bathroom-every detail is perfect. It's hands-down the coolest restaurant design I've ever seen.
Service was fast considering it was a full house-order taken in about 10 minutes, ramen & sides out in 16. Prices are really fair: $110 for 2 mains, 2 sides, & 2 drinks. Everything was flavorful & delicious.
Food was really good! We took 6 side dishes for two & it was enough food. Ambiance is good, decor is really cool. It is more of a family friendly place, rather than a date night/ pre drink restaurant.
Very nice atmosphere in the dining place, giving the Japanese cyberpunk vibes. It's also a nice to hangout for a drink or two with friends. I have been here during lunch hours & it's crowded with a long queue. However, when I come after 8:30pm, I can straight walk in & have a seat without waiting.
