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.
Ramen Isshin is described as a clean, modern, welcoming spot with ample parking and attentive service. The broths are praised for richness and depth, with the red dragon and spicy miso among the standouts and solid shoyu and kotteri options noted. Noodles are described as hearty and handmade, and portions are generous, with a variety of toppings and sides such as gyoza, takoyaki, and karaage. The staff are repeatedly noted as friendly and helpful, providing clear menu explanations and recommendations for both families and date nights. The menu offers flexibility to request less salty broth and includes vegetarian options. While a few comments mention saltiness or value considerations, the overall sentiment is that Ramen Isshin delivers high quality ramen and a consistently positive experience. Many reviews call it a standout ramen spot in the West Island or Montreal and a new favorite.
Loved our first visit to Ramen Isshin! The broth of the shoyu was delicious & the pork belly was amazing! The only thing'missing' is homemade noodles. If the noodles were homemade I think Isshin could give Yokobai a serious run for their money. We'll definitely be back!

C'est le pire restaurant de ramen de Montréal. Les ramen que nous avons commandés étaient insipides, & ils ne proposent ni sauces ni sel. Si vous demandez des sauces pour au moins donner un peu de goût au plat, ils vous les font payer en supplément ! 👎 J'ai payé plus de 70 $ pour un plat qui avait le goût d'eau chaude.
Portion généreuse, ramène savoureux & service courtois. Quoi demander de plus. Le prix est aussi abordable, important pour les familles qui veulent pas dépenser leurs paies.
I visited the other night & left completely impressed. The ambiance is warm & inviting, perfect for a relaxed evening out. The ramen was rich, flavorful, & easily some of the best I've had in the city. What really stood out, though, was the service. I had my toddler with me, & our server went out of her way to make things easier she brought a small bowl & spoon for him right away & was incredibly patient throughout our meal. Thoughtful touches like that make all the difference. Highly recommend this spot, & I'm already looking forward to our next visit.
My father & I are regulars here, every time we get great service. The ramen is the best in the west, as is the karagge. Highly recommended. Clean & fresh. Must visit.
I ate dinner at Ramen Isshin for the first time last night with my wife & 2 young kids. We might have found our new favourite restaurant!
It's rare that I try a new place & find absolutely nothing to complain about (yeah, I'm like that). Ramen Isshin though...
The place itself is tastefully decorated. It was immaculately clean as well. Even the dishes (plate & bowls) were beautiful & matched the decor.
The service was exceptional. Our server had a genuine smile on her face & gave us a detailed explanation of the menu. She also had a suggestion for the kids that they loved!! I should mention that my kids have a couple of favourite restaurants, but last night they both agreed that this is their new top spot!
I had the Red Dragon ramen. It was the'spicy' option. I would say the heat level was low, but not in a bad way. It just wasn't very'spicy'. However, it was FULL of flavour! The broth was rich & delicious; the noodles were hearty & felt home made, & the meat was tender & delicious. We also tried the raw octopus with wasabi appetizer, which was also very nice. I'm pretty sure I'll eventually try everything on their menu eventually.
Overall, this place is an absolute gem! If I really dig around for a complaint (which is how I roll), I'll say that getting around in that neighbourhood sucks. Can't turn left anywhere. That being said, obviously not their fault & if I weren't so stubborn I could have just used my GPS.
We now have a Ramen Isshin in west island. Yay.
Everything on the menu is fabulous.
They also ask you & offer less salty Ramen. Go for it. It brought us back our culinary memories in Japan.
Great friendly service. Explosion of flavors at every bite & spoonful booths.
