RamenJapaneseAsianGrillVegetarianSoupsResto-Bar

Ramen Isshin means One Heart One Ramen. Bringing you true authentic Ramen to the city of Toronto. Our happiness is your happiness & we always want to make you smile.

We offer a variety of bowls that are very unique in flavours, textures and taste. We want you to have our "Isshin" experience and leave satisfied & always smiling!

Our signature Ramen is our Wok Fried Red Miso Ramen. Every bowl starts in the wok. A generous handful of veggies mixed with our signature blend of red & white miso, sake and other seasonings are fired up. Tonkotsu broth is added and brought to a piping hot temperature, this is then poured over a fresh bed of noodles. This process melds all the flavours perfectly together to give it that unique Isshin taste.

Offering exotic Ramen's like Tsukemen aka Dipping Ramen, our famous Black Sesame Tan Tan Noodle and our White Sesame Shio Ramen is what also set's us apart from the other shops in town.

We also pride ourselves also on our large selection of Vegetarian Ramens as well as our awesomeappetizer list.

Poulet karaage & korokke were really good so 3 stars.

The restaurant was quiet, clean, & efficient.

Ordering was simple & convenient by having a barcode to place online for the table. Lots of options for toppings & styles of soup, including vegetarian broths.

The portion sizes were very generous.

Amazing Ramen Experience - A Must-Try!

This ramen shop is absolutely incredible! The broth is rich, flavorful, & deeply satisfying-perfectly balanced between savory & umami. The noodles have just the right chewiness, & the chashu (braised pork) is so tender it melts in your mouth. The soft-boiled egg was marinated to perfection with a creamy yolk.

The atmosphere is cozy & authentic, with friendly staff who make you feel welcome. The menu has great variety, & every dish we tried was delicious. Highly recommend the tonkotsu ramen & gyoza!

If you love authentic Japanese ramen, this place is a gem. Will definitely be coming back! 10/10! 🍜✨

You are immediately greeted at the front door & told to sit anywhere you like. As it was my first time, the waitress took the time to explain the whole menu to me. Small alterations request to the dish were accepted without a problem. I chose the Red Ramen & it was delicious. The broth was extremely flavourful & the Ramen noodles were tasty & chewy without being bloating or too filling. I finished with a beautiful decorated mango mochi dessert. The atmosphere was cozy in a modern quick diner environment. Very high quality ingredients & service attention.

If you're looking for a cozy spot with flavorful ramen, this place delivers. The broth is rich, the noodles have great texture, & the toppings are fresh & well-balanced. Service is quick & friendly, & the atmosphere is inviting. Definitely worth a visit!

Good & fast service & the atmosphere is pretty good & cozy. Would've liked more space to sit but that's my only caveat. As for the ramen, I ordered the spicy miso & it was very tasty & well balanced. I would've like the broth to be me warmer but can't complain about anything else. Very recommended !

Forgot to take pictures but I was definitely impressed. I've been to Japan so I can give a fair comparison; Isshin has it down. I got the spicy shio & some karaage & it was delicious. Creamy flavourful broth, just spicy enough & just enough perfectly cooked noodles. The karaage were crunchy with nice, big pieces of chicken. Using their app also made it really easy to order & customize the ramen with plenty of choices to pick from. Really excited to have another good ramen in the neighbourhood!

In my opinion one of the best ramens in montreal. Broth is amazing & noodle texture on point. Portions are also very generous! Couple a negative points: 1- no free extra chilli powder or sauce... everything is a surcharge. At least its homemade chilli sauve 2- menu description said 1 egg be we only got 1/2 egg

Best ramen place in Montréal if you ask me. The broth is addictive 💕 ramen dragon rouge is my favorite ❤️

Had the Shio & Garlic Shoyu ramen, broth was great, noodle texture was perfect (order the thick noodles for that extra chew). Ramen egg was a little on the sweet side, needs slightly more salt in the marination, not a big issue. Great overall bowl of ramen!

Great ramen place in Plateau Mont-Royal. The system of ordering on your phone is perfect for individual dining, but with multiple friends it can be a hassle. I took the Kotteri Shoyu Ramen. The broth was good, but a little bit salty (I know it's suppose to be the rich broth). The noodles weren't good at all. The chashu had a good taste & toppings were well chosen. I also had the karrage chicken, that I would recommend to share with friends.

Very Good Ramen, Broth is amazing....noodles could be a bit more thicker but still its a must visit😁

Stars given for the perfect chewiness level of the noodles, the flavorful broth of veggie spicy miso, & the tasty deep fried chicken karage. I was hesitant between the shio (sea salt) or shoyu (soy sauce) base broth, but ended up with miso & it didn't disappoint. The place on Mont Royal is not big tho, it's ideal for solo eaters or couples. The servers are attentive, they come regularly to check if everything is ok. A flat note of the soirée: they charge $1.50 for literally a spoon of chilli oil 😲

I ordered the red miso pork tonkotsu. The broth was flavorless & it only came with two pieces of cold char siu. I won't be returning

Overall pretty good ramen. All the toppings were delicious & the broth was satisfying. If you're socially anxious, this place is pretty neat because you can order & pay for everything online, even if you dine in.

We had a friends get together at this awesome Ramen venue & loved it ! By far the best Ramen in Montreal & we particularly loved the broth ❤️ I had the Spicy Vegetarian Miso & it was so delicious & my partner loved his Garlic Shoyu Ramen as well 😊The others had Shio Ramen as well as Spicy Shio & we all loved each bite as it was beyond tasty & very fulfilling. With a great service & perfect venue to bring your friends, I cannot wait to go back & try other items in this 10/10 Ramen place 😍

The ramen was excellent. The pork belly char siu was flavourful & so it's the broth. The veggie Miso was surprisingly good. The Karaage chicken was crispy & tender. The place is a little bit small compared to the one from DIX30 & it's always packed.
