Les serveurs sont professionnels, sympathiques & efficaces.
On a pas eu à attendre pour avoir une table.
J'ai pris ramen tonkotsu. Le plat était super bon & en bonne quantité.
Le goût était correct, rien d'extraordinaire. Le prix n'est pas excessif, mais ça reste un peu cher pour ce que c'est.
J'ai pris le ramen'Tokyo style', mais honnêtement, un tonkotsu aurait été un meilleur choix. Le bouillon était plutôt ordinaire, rien de spécial.
Le karaage était croustillant & bon, mais je recommande la version originale plutôt qu'épicée. L'épicée est un peu molle, avec une sauce qui rappelle le poulet coréen (as a Korean).
Pour 10 $, c'est un bon rapport qualité-prix.
Au total, environ 45 $ pour un ramen + karaage avec le pourboire.
+Les baguettes auraient pu être réutilisables plutôt qu'à usage unique. Après avoir mangé le karaage, ce n'était pas très propre de continuer le ramen avec des baguettes pleines de sauce.
Ils auraient pu en donner une nouvelle après l'entrée.
Aussi, une seule serviette en papier par personne c'est trop juste.
J'étais assis juste devant la cuisine, donc c'est dommage qu'ils n'aient pas prêté plus d'attention à ces petits détails de service.
Visited 1 time.
Welcoming staff, clean place & super cosy atmosphere.
As for food, the Takoyaki balls were super delicious. The ramen we took, hmm.. they were good too but I expected them to be better. I had the Tonkotsu & added extra black garlic oil too but I personally found that it still lacked depths & flavours. (Same impressions from the people accompanying me)
I would recommend if for the welcoming & super nice decor though 👌
La déco & l'ambiance sont wow ! J'ai ADORÉ les dumplings & le ramen Tonkotsu.
I may have found my new favorite ramen place in town.
The decor is striking. It's like the original Blade Runner. It's very well done. Great place for a dinner date.
Menu has a lot of typical appetizers, ramen & mazemen. We tried the house wontons, the classic tonkotsu ramen & house mazemen. Everything was excellent. The katsu was perfect, probably the best I've had here.
The cocktails were also very interesting. Nice staff.
Come early, because it's popular.
Prices aren't cheap (especially the apps), but the quality is there. I'll absolutely return.
Quite possibly the saltiest tonkotsu ramen. My + 1 & I could not finish the ramen :')
Souper sans faute. Gyoza & Karaage en entrée. Ramen TanTan & Tonkotsu. Tout était succulent & sans faille. Que dire du service. Il était rapide & amicale.
Une soirée plus que parfaite
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.
My partner & I shared 2 dishes - the perfect amount of food at lunchtime, honestly. The tonkotsu ramen left me craving it weeks after. The hamachi crudo was pretty good, perfect as a fresh appetizer before our main. The service was upscale quality. It came to around $45 after tax & tip.
Really tasty, best ramen in Montreal. I tried the tonkotsu ramen & the porc is tender & tasty, really recomend
The ambience of this place is great! It gives off a cyberpunk/stray vibe. Service was very good too. Food took a little too long but the server was very attentive. As for the food, my partner & I ordered the mazemen & the tonkotsu ramen...first few bites we were amazed by the flavour! But after a few more bites it gets old. Overall both dishes were too salty. The menu is small & doesnt offer much variety for food (yes for drinks). Not a kid-friendly place (nor picky-eater-friendly). It's also very expensive, $70 for two people, 2 ramens, 1 non-alcoholic drink & 15% tip.
Nice atmosphere, the food was good too. The tonkotsu ramen was very flavourful.
On a Friday night, we had to wait for 20 min for a table. They ask for our number to call us when a place is available. We had to wait for around 15 min for the food to come. The food was just average. We took the Tokyo style & Tonkotsu ramen & the broth was too salty. The quantity is too little. For the egg, you only get half of it. The noodles texture was perfect. It was expensive, around 20$ a bowl. The karaage was good but ordinary & is not in big quantity. The server was nice & quick. I wouldn't come back
Having experienced this place at the start of our Montreal road trip, we returned on our last leg before heading home. We can report that the tonkotsu ramen was equally good the second time round. We also tried the very spicy lamb mazemen & although I could take the heat, certain spices just make my head sweat. Really tasty! The extra surprise this time was the fish cake which was a lovely starter.
Even though we went in a day were the service was slow, probably due to the fact that they were at full capacity, the food did not disappoint. Delicious tonkotsu & the surprisingly delicious neotokyo. Really enjoyed my time with my wife there.
Many moons ago, I came across Kinton Ramen in Chicago. I was looking forward to finding one in Montreal, but then I got distracted & came across this ramen-ya! Neo Tokyo had a little bit of that underground grunginess that you see in many Japanese manga/anime & sci-fi films. It transports you into that pseudo Matrix set. Our hostess (I think she is Meriem, at least that's what the bill said. Sorry, I should have asked;) was jokingly asking us if we want the French or English version of her services. Regretfully my français est très mal. So we went with English. The selection of appetizers were fantastic. Japanese fusion, they would not be out of place in any top Japanese restaurants: Spicy Karaage Nasu Agebidash Agedashi Tofu Kimchi Tsukemono You can really sense the various textures & depths of flavour. Then the main event: Tonkotsu! I have religiously tried many places from Japan, US, UK & it is a real skill to combine both the right noodles & the broth. Neo Tokyo hits that bulls eye on both counts. The firmness of the noddles & the richness of the broth were both exceptional! The creaminess is so smooth. Your inner noodle-self will thank you profusely!
Perfect restaurant. Hits all criteria perfectly. Vibe, food, staff's friendliness, whatever criteria you set they will satisfy. Had spicy karaage, miso truffle, tonkotsu, chicken ramen, & the mazemen, & all of them were top tier. Highly HIGHLY recommend
Really cool decor for a restaurant for sure! Unfortunately, the food was not exactly up to par considering the price point in my opinion. Takoyaki was tasty, nothing negative about it. The Mezamen I thought tasted ok & is a nice option. The Tonkotsu ramen was the most unfortunate as it made my friend sick & tasted odd. I do not know if they put some sort of cream or milk in the broth but it tasted as though cream had not been tempered in the broth properly & curdled, which is too bad. I value a restaurant's food above all else which is why I am only giving 3 stars, but we otherwise had a good service & the atmosphere was fun.
The tonkotsu ramen was very good! It was a shame that they forgot to add the ajitama egg to it.
Best tonkotsu ramen in Montreal, if you like pork chasao. Will try others at 5&7. The place rocks.
