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.

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!

2025: it was quiet but somehow the service was inattentive. The food arrived quickly though. I don't think the tantan deluxe is for me & the pork was a little overcooked, but the takoyaki was nice. I like that they had anime on the screens.
2018: Ramen was very good, flavourful & a sizeable portion. I like that you can add more ingredients in for a small fee. Fried chicken was disappointing. Service was efficient. Small place, can easily have lineups.

Je partage l'un des avis indiquant que c'était bon, sans être excellent.
Le ramen était bon, mais j'ai connu bien meilleur. Il s'agissait d'un tonkotsu, mais dont l'épaisseur (le gras) n'était pas au rendez-vous (pas de choix sur le gras du bouillon, d'autant plus). À une cuillère de viande près, on était sur un ramen végétarien : le ramen contenait une cuillère à soupe de viande hachée (& encore). Certes, je mangeais le ramen'd'entrée de gamme', mais pas au point de le voir sur la carte des ramens avec de la viande. C'était ridicule. J'avais davantage l'impression que ce ramen était proposé dans la carte des ramens avec viande, histoire d'augmenter le volume de plats proposés & dire qu'il y aurait des ramens avec de la viande pour tous les prix (quantité de viande minimale pour l'un & maximale pour l'autre).
Personnel cordial & attentionné.
Il semblait effectivement y avoir une'incitation', au moins tacite, au pourboire. À commencer par un message placé à côté du terminal de paiement pour rappeler que l'addition ne contient pas de pourboire & le personnel zieutait mes actions à l'étape du pourboire du terminal. Au lieu de cultiver la précarité salariale avec des tips, veillez à mettre la pression aux patrons pour des salaires décents. S'il le faut, augmentez le prix de vos plats : on paiera le prix juste.
Tout de même près de 17$CA TTC le ramen'd'entrée de gamme' (dit'basique'). J'expérimentais meilleur rapport qualité prix, avec une quantité'sérieuse' de viande & pour moins onéreux que si je prenais le ramen dit'Deluxe' (en relatif). Aussi, même s'il se peut que ce restaurant soit moins onéreux que la concurrence, il n'en fait pas moins qu'il n'est pas abordable.
J'étais particulièrement attiré par ce restaurant en raison de la quantité d'avis & la notation moyenne tournant autour de 4/5 étoiles. Ce volume d'avis proviendrait-il des étudiants de l'université de Concordia ?
Rien à dire sur l'ambiance, c'était très bien. Au plus simple.

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.

I ordered two ramen combos from this restaurant through Uber Eats, but only received one when the delivery arrived. I called the restaurant immediately, & the staff told me to place another order for one ramen combo & said they would contact their boss to send me an e-transfer refund. I followed their instructions, but I never received the money.
The next day, I called again to follow up. A different staff member answered, told me she would speak with the boss, & never got back to me. On the third day, I called once more & was hung up on right after I explained the situation. After that, I haven't been able to reach the restaurant at all-my calls won't go through anymore, & it feels like my number has been blocked.
This is unacceptable customer service & a very disappointing experience. I would not recommend ordering from this place.
Update: After posting this review, the restaurant reached out to me with an apology & an explanation. It turns out the refund via e-transfer was sent to the wrong email address due to a typo on their end. They acknowledged the mistake, took responsibility, & also addressed the poor communication & unprofessional phone response I experienced. They offered a 50% off coupon as a gesture of goodwill, which I appreciate.
While I still believe the situation could have been handled better from the start - especially with clearer communication & follow-up - I do appreciate their effort to make things right after the fact. I've decided to keep the original review up for transparency, but I also want to acknowledge that the restaurant did take ownership & apologized sincerely.

I've walked past this unassuming little ramen shop for years. When an old friend said they made the best ramen in town I was eager to try. I'm so glad I did!!I had the deluxe gold, & it was one of the best ramen I've ever had.

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

Our 2 ramen are both delicious, noodle soup is very good also. but some comments are correct online: the restaurant is old, dark & not too clean. The 4 pieces of seaweed was not fresh enough, not crispy, & was already limp. That's it.

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

Let's start with the food: unreal. The ramen was incredible, very very happy with the food. Then there's the service, the staff there are very friendly, & very accommodating. They went way above & beyond, making it a very welcoming & positive experience. I can't say enough good things about this spot, if you are in the area check it out!

The ramen here was spectacular, super filling, & so fresh. I had the vegetarian tan tan miso ramen & I will be dreaming of that broth for years! The staff was friendly & the atmosphere was quaint, there was even anime on the tv!

It was very fast & service was good largely because it was not-busy. The menu is extremely pork-y (one could get vegetarian ramens then add extra ingredients as sides & the takoyaki is decent; but when you're scanning through the menu it feels like 80% pork).
