I've been a big fan of sansotei over the years & this was my first time at the Mackay location. Unfortunately, it didn't measure up. The tonkotsu black was bland - both the broth & the chasu pork lacked the full rich flavour I was used to & the noodles were slightly overcooked. The chasu is also sliced super think like a cold cut so the value is not there either. No one came to ask how we liked it. Maybe this is the sad reality with multiple franchises but I won't be returning to Sansotei again.

Best ramen in Montreal! Loved it, the broth tastes amazing & rich

One of my favorite ramen spots in Montreal Sansotei Ramen stands out with its flavorful options & cozy atmosphere.

I ordered the Black Tonkotsu Ramen, which came with chashu (charred pork), wood ear mushrooms, soft-boiled egg & a black garlic oil that added an incredible aroma & depth of flavor - 10/10.
I also tried the Black Miso Ramen, which had a bold miso & mushroom profile. It's a bit thicker & saltier, perfect if you prefer a strong, hearty broth, with tender pork belly & egg - 9/10.

The space is warm & cozy, great for couples or small groups, though it might be a bit tight for larger parties.

Located right in the heart of Montreal's Asian food hub, surrounded by Japanese, Korean, & Chinese eateries, Sansotei is a place I'll definitely be returning to. Highly recommend!

This is an outstanding ramen experience. The broth is dense & deeply flavorful, showcasing an impressive depth of umami. Its authentic taste is a clear indicator of traditional preparation, making each spoonful a remarkable culinary experience. Highly recommended for those who appreciate genuine, high-quality ramen.

Really good Ramen & Gyoza! The broth was tasty, not too salty or rich, & all the ingredients were high quality. The ramen egg was really good! & the chicken breast & smoked pork that we had in the soup were not the cheap shredded type you often get. I'd definitely recommend this place.
