Our menu was designed & developed by our Executive Chef Koji Zenimaru. We hope you enjoy his offerings created from his personal experiences, life and travels throughout Japan. Ramen Isshin presents you our true authentic tastes of Ramen.
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.
Pretty good ramen spot! The broth was flavorful & the noodles had a nice texture. Portion size was decent, & the service was friendly & quick. The place can get busy, so sometimes there's a short wait. They have good options for vegan!
J'ai pris le ramen shio au sésame blanc. C'était vraiment bon : le bouillon est savoureux & réconfortant, les nouilles sont parfaites, bien cuites, avec une bonne texture. La portion est juste comme il faut pour une personne. Une bonne adresse si on cherche un ramen de qualité.
I am not a big fan of ramen, but went there to meet a friend. It was actually enjoyable, service was really good & the quality of ingridients was visible.

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.
O ramen é simplesmente excepcional! O caldo é rico, saboroso e perfeitamente equilibrado, a massa tem textura incrível, e os acompanhamentos, como o chashu e o ovo marinado, sao frescos e deliciosos. Uma experiência autêntica que vale cada mordida
The best place I've ever been in! I love staff, I love food, I love everything! Just amazing spot to go alone or with your friends. Delicious food for affordable price!

Food was delicious & service was excellent despite how busy the servers were. They managed large tables, outdoor seating & smaller tables inside without any stress.
Highly recommend the Red Miso ramen & mango shaved ice cream.
Super delicious ramen! I got the spiciest ramen they had to offer (Red Dragon) & it did not disappoint. The broth was rich, flavourful & had the perfect amount of spice. The chashu was tender & the marinated egg was super yummy. Service was friendly & efficient, & the atmosphere was clean & relaxed. Great spot for a satisfying bowl! I will definitely be coming back.
First off the service is very warm, our server explained the menu very thoroughly:)
I took the red spicy miso & my partner took the red dragon, both ramen were rich in flavour & the noodles were perfectly chewy, honestly felt like a breath of fresh air finally trying some good ramen in the area, I would say its one of the best restaurants on Wellington!! Definitely worth it & we will be coming back

I've recently visited Isshin Ramen Verdun & it was a truly outstanding experience from start to finish. The ramen broth was rich, comforting, & perfectly seasoned. The noodles had a great chew & texture, & the toppings-especially the tender chashu & the runny soft?boiled egg-were fresh & flavorful.
The service was warm & attentive, & the atmosphere was cozy yet modern. They were able to handle a full house efficiently, & the wait time was reasonable even during a busy dinner rush. Portion sizes are generous, & the price is well worth it.
Five stars for cleanliness, friendly staff, & a menu with great variety-including vegetarian options. I'm already planning my next visit & recommend this place to ramen lovers in the Verdun area.
I have been a regular at this location of Ramen Isshin on Wellington street for about a year now & all I could tell you is that they are the best ramen place I have tried in Montreal. Their ramen is always flavorful & fresh. As an Asian who grew up in Asia, I could tell that everything is homemade with my first bite of the noodles & sip of the soup. They are also always launching a new article to make the experience more interesting to their customers. My latest best is their MATCHA KAKIGORI (A SHAVED ICE OR A BINGSU). OH MY GOD, it's really refreshing & addictive. It's a must try, especially during the hot days of summer. You won't regret it. The server Betul went above & beyond to accommodate my order by making a new kakigori base on the spot when they ran out of it that day. All that being said, you won't regret going there because they got the best food & service in town!! 🥰🥰🥰
