Review Summary

Ramen Isshin is widely praised for a rich, comforting broth and chewy noodles, with bowls described as flavorful and satisfying and toppings fresh. The service and atmosphere are often highlighted as friendly and efficient, able to handle busy crowds while staying clean and cozy. Standout orders like spicy and red miso ramen earn strong recommendations, and portions are generally generous with good value, though a few reviewers find prices high or some bowls uneven. Some criticism points to an overpowering garlic oil, broth that can taste bitter when altered, and occasional notes of small meat portions. Overall, the reviews present Ramen Isshin as a reliable, popular ramen spot with vegetarian options and a range of flavors, though experiences can vary and it may not be the absolute best in the city.

Ce que j'ai goûté est très bon, mais je trouve les prix exagérés. Le menu donne envie… mais trop cher. Une bière Sapporo: 9,95 plus taxe, plus pourboire, revient au prix de quatre bouteilles en épicerie. Je donne cela comme exemple car tout le monde peut comprendre la comparaison. Quatre petit morceaux de « pork Gyoza » (une entrée peu copieuse; sur la photo) a 9,50$ & un pouding à la mangue (6,50$). En fait j'avais commandé autre chose qui me semblait appétissant mais on m'annonce quelques minutes plus tard, qu'il n'y en a plus. Étonnant!

Je suis allée sur la terrasse vers 16h30 17h je voulais juste grignoter quelque chose & boire une bière car j'avais beaucoup marché (plus d'une heure à pas vif & même chose au retour)

Étonnée aussi qu'on m'incite, sur la facture, à donner jusqu'à 18% de pourboire… sur la terrasse! Cela ne m'incite pas à revenir.
De plus en plus de restaurants n'exigent plus de pourboire. Il y a de très bons articles à ce sujet.

The food is alright, what I mean is that it is more or less on par with the rest of ramen restaurants out there but is grossly overpriced... Off the bat, their soup is roughly $5 (~20%) more than Kinton & other competitors out there & they gave you 2 slices of pork that's PAPER THIN. The broth is not particularly impactful/memorable either, is average. I tried Isshin a couple years ago in Ottawa & it was good & I gave it a 5 stars, but it wasn't $22/bowl with barely any ingredients in there, it was literally 2 thin slices, a bit of ground pork & some bean sprouts, not even a sheet of seaweed. For context, at the time of typing this, you can get a spicy ramen combo with gyoza & coke at Kinton for the same price. The "seafood" pancake is also disappointing, mushy & tiny, barely any seafood in there, very salty too. Overall, in terms of taste it is OK, in terms of value I won't be coming back.

Had high hopes for this new restaurant but was sadly disappointed. We did not receive part of our order & I asked for another sauce for my gyoza but it never came. Service wasn't very active & we were never asked how our food was. My dish with rice & fried chicken(maybe pork?) Was bland & dry. The Ramen may be good but I won't be back to try it.

Really decent shoyu ramen. I found the broth to be a bit less flavourful than I prefer, & the chashu pork was on the thin end of the spectrum. Noodles were on point. The egg's texture was good but it tasted a bit sweet for some reason. I'll probably return to try more of their menu.

Very satisfied with the overall dine-in experience we had at Ramen Isshin Verdun! We ordered the Pork Gyoza & Korokke. Both plates had the right amount of crunch, the flavor was good & the pork in the gyoza was juicy. As for ramen we ordered the Red Dragon & the Spicy Shio with White Sesame. The broths were packed with flavor & really rich. The ramen noodles were perfectly chewy & the amount was good for the quantity of broth. The Red Dragon is really for the spicy lovers, it hits the right spot for a good spicy craving! For the price (approx. 18-22$/bowl) the portions are generous! Service is fast & good. The people that work there are kind & they patiently answered our questions. We will definitely come back to taste more from the menu :)
