Ordered the Kotteri Shoyu & Chicken Shio for pickup & was really disappointed. Both broths had a strong taste of rancid oil that completely overwhelmed the flavor. I definitely wasn't expecting that, especially given the restaurant's reputation. I paid $55 for what turned out to be a very disappointing meal, & unfortunately, I couldn't finish either bowl. I also ended up with a bad stomachache afterward. 🤢

Wow!
Les bouillons sont goûteux. Tout était délicieux. Gros coup de coeur pour le shio épicé ( pas trop, juste relevé)

I am Japanese & a big fan of ramen, but this place has impressed me the most among all the ramen shops I've tried in Montreal. The type of noodles changes depending on the soup, & they were so firm & tasty that they were delicious even on their own. Today, I had the Miso & Shoyu ramen, but next time, I'll try the Shio ramen as well. I would also like to add that the bright & friendly staff provide excellent service, & you won't hesitate to leave a tip. haha! Their smiles will make your meal even more enjoyable.

Très bonne ambiance, déco à thème, nourriture très savoureuse : shio & miso rouge. Moshi pour dessert. Le personnel est bien à l'écoute. Merci. Nous reviendrons :)

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!

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!

Excelent Ramen. J'ai pris un Shio, le Tan Tan au sésame noir & porc & mon amie un végétarien. Les nouilles kaedama au choux frisé sont aussi intéressante. Une bonne adresse a montréal. Leur gyoza sont bon mais un peu cher pour juste 5 morceaux. Je reviendrai gouter leur nouveauté de ramen froid...
