Ramen Misoya Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
RamenJapaneseAsianVegetarianSoups

Where ramen and miso meets
Ever since Japan’s Edo period (1600 to 1867 AC), Miso has been known as a healthy and tasty
condiment and has been beloved for generations.

Miso is made with soybeans, rice (or barley in some cases) and salt by being fermented for a certain
period of time. It originated in China, spread to Japan in the 9th century and became known as Miso paste. In the long history of Japan, Miso has been a sufficient protein source, to enhance rice, soup or as a sauce over vegetable side dishes.

As a fermented food, miso is a great source of probiotics or beneficial bacteria, which increases the
health of your gut and enhances your immune system. Miso is also high in protein, in minerals like
manganese and zinc, and vitamin E, vitamin K, various B vitamins, and folic acid.

Review Summary

Reviews describe Ramen Misoya as a cozy basement ramen spot in Montreal offering a range of miso ramen and generous toppings at a reasonable price. The broth is frequently praised for depth and flavor, with favorites like Gold Kome and Shiro Chashu noted, and diners appreciate the option to add extra broth or toppings. Noodle quality and toppings are variable; some bowls feature excellent chashu, while others show fatty edges or misfires like burnt chashu. Service ranges from fast and friendly to slow or understaffed, with long wait times reported at busy times. The atmosphere is cozy and anime on screen adds to the vibe, though the basement setting and occasional cleanliness or visibility concerns are mentioned. A few reviews mention delivery issues and refund mixups, though responses indicate some remediation. Overall, many see Ramen Misoya as a strong, comforting ramen destination and value for money, with high praise for flavor and several caveats about consistency and service.

So disappointed in my experience today. I've been coming to this place for years but started coming less because the food was less qualitative than it used to be. I decided to give it another chance today.

It took more than 1 hour for me to get my bowl of ramen. In the past, I've never waited more than 20 minutes, even when the place was full. I ordered extra fries (4pcs) with my bowl. After more than an hour, the server brought the bowl with 2 pcs & says they will bring the rest soon, which then arrived at the end of my bowl. How is it so difficult to fry 4 fries? Tofu was also missing on my bowl but the wait was so long that i didn't want to ask & wait more. The ramen was good, broth was flavorful but not spicy for tantanmen. Not good enough for such a long wait tho.

The server was very kind, was tryng her best & i could see that she was embarassed of the situation.

Sadly, i think it was my last time there!

This place has good review & their ramen do taste good. However, I couldn't stop doubting if it's been overrated because I waited for 40 minutes to get a normal bowl of ramen when it's not at their peak busy hour & there's only 3 other tables in the shop (1 already got served). I think everything will taste good after you sit & wait for half hour while starving.

The server did explain because there's only one chef in the kitchen. In fact, there's only one server & one chef during a weekend lunch time. I couldn't imagine how work they would experience on that day! So I think employer should definitely hire more people to help, otherwise, I doubt the quality of the food can be consistent.

Regardless of bring about 40 minutes before closing, the wait wasn't bad, & ramen was spectacular. Genuinely the best bowl I've had in a while. Another review said they'd be dreaming about that bowl & I agree. Affordable & filling, we're coming back for sure,& bringing friends

They really stuff their bowls but the broth was ok. It's a nice intimate setting.

My friend & I were suppose to go to the Malatang right above this place but it was closed. Was a little disappointed. I don't know about my friend but my bowl was lukewarm & the chicken was okay but too pricy for the small potion (I ordered the larger size). Overall it was Soso.

Tasty broth & good texture of the noodles, but the cha-siu slice is thin & small, the egg was not perfect, & the price for these extra aren't worth it. Maybe best for vegetarian dishes. Took a while to receive the bowl as well, perhaps understaff.

It was... pretty standard. I was honestly disappointed by the food... it was very... standard. Don't take my word for granted, though. It may be because I like strong flavors, but still, it tasted very bland for me. At the very least, I did not enjoy it that much, but it was definitely not disgusting. For the price, it's decent. It definitely is budget friendly compared to most Ramen places nowadays. My friend, however, seems to enjoy it (as you can see, there are 2 different bowls). I ordered a Miso basic, & I think my friend ordered something from the Golden section of the menu. The selection was alright but lacking in every meal item... which made me hesitate on what to get, & so I decided to stick to something that people suggested. The service was sad even though the restaurant was not busy... I felt like the waiter was rushing to get it over with. I don't want to question his mood nor attitude since it was my first time there, & it could be one of those bad days, but it really might just be a 1 time problem!!! The place is in a secluded spot, but the inside gives you a "private place" sort of feeling. It's a nice spot to have a calm & peaceful meal. Anyways, it's good for a budget friendly meal, but I don't want to come back here regardless...

This place is a very unexpected surprise... Located in such an unassuming spot, with not much of an attractive ambience. The first impression when I entered this place wasn't so welcoming as it didjt have a good smell. Me being so sensitive to smells, a gud smell always impress me more. The place was small with limited seating but surprisingly getting filled back to back... So, naturally I decided to try out the food...

Very sweet server & he helped us to decide on what to choose... Ramen quantity was biggg & tasted great too... Gyoza didnt impress much but not bad... Couldn't finish the whole bowl, so had to pack off... Do try their gold ramen which is more flavourful...

Good ramen shop! Had the Tonkutsu Black & the Silver Shiro Special. The silver broth was as advertised with a lighter taste. They were tasty, but not outstanding bowls of ramen. The noodles had a good chew & it was a hearty dinner for the price. Our server was helpful!
