Ramen Misoya

Ramen Misoya is a cozy basement spot that delivers flavorful ramen at a more affordable price point than many others in the city. Portions are generous, especially the amount of chashu you get for the price.

Here's what I tried:
* Shiro Chashu Ramen - 9/10 Flavorful broth, nicely charred chashu, & a good variety of toppings.
* Gold Miso Ramen - 7.5/10 Rich & hearty broth, though some toppings were unexpected (like a fried potato wedge).
* Takoyaki - 8.5/10 Tasty, a good choice while waiting.

The staff is friendly, & the open kitchen adds a nice touch. The place is warm & inviting, but since it's located in a basement, it might be a little tricky to spot. It can get busy during lunch, & service can be a bit slow but the food is worth the wait.

Recommended, & I'll be back!

Flavorful ramen with tasty, hearty broth & generous toppings. Service is quick & friendly. Cozy atmosphere, though it can get crowded during peak hours. Great spot for ramen lovers.

good ramen for good price. Third time coming here. Definitely recommend getting the ramen with a couple toppings like egg, pork or whatever to make it more interesting (base flavour gets boring after a while) silver shiro spicy

My spouse & I are vegetarian & we are always on the hunt for excellent vegetarian ramen. Ramen Misoya hits it out of the park. Every fan of vegetarian ramen should make sure to check out Ramen Misoya when in Montreal. I got the Tantan, my spouse got the silver with an egg. Both were outstanding. Excellent flavor, toppings, noodles, etc. 👌

You have to go down a flight of stairs to get in & we were a bit nervous with our stroller & 5-month old. But the staff was incredibly helpful & it was not a problem at all.

Pretty typical ramen place - not about the ambience, it's about the food.

Honestly best ramen I've ever had. Great portion sizes, great broth, great noodles, great toppings. It is a bit of a hole in the wall but holy moly, bar = raised.

I was told by a friend that Misoya was the best ramen shop in Montreal...but all I found was disappointment.

First of all, I want to get it's best positive out of the way immediately. The service was great, the lady was courteous, attentive & very friendly.

Now that's out of the way the not so good points... the ramen.. noodles were acceptable, the toppings were mediocre at best..but the broth was too salty...I had the Silver Spicy Shoyu, while my girlfriend had the Golden Tokatsu. Both broths were very salty... but she had over five full cups of water throughout the dinner..

Also a huge negative here was the music blaring from the speakers..also for a Japanese restaurant, the musical playlist was very weird...from anime theme songs, to j-pop, to j-grunge, to metal..All blaring non stop...made it a bit too hard to get a conversation going. Also the decor was very...bland...& un-japanesque...

So yeah...is Misoya the BEST Ramen restaurant our city has to offer?
My personal opinion it would be no, but maybe you'd like it?

Try it out for yourself.

Tied for best ramen in Montreal for me. Delicious broth, tasty ramen, some kind of tempura tofu & some other non-identifiable but super-delicious toppings floating around. The staff is 100% Japanese & the service is what you would get in Japan. 13$ tax & tip included for lunch. Great! We'll definitely go back & often! (2013)

Wow, how things have changed in 2018. Quality went down & prices went up. 21$ for ok ramen. Not going back.

Now they also have curry ramen!!! So rich and delicious. Perfect for a winter meal! It also comes with a generous portion of chicken. Best soup/ramen place in Montreal!!!
