Dans l'ensemble, les avis convergent sur une expérience de ramen rapide et savoureuse avec un service généralement chaleureux et une ambiance agréable. Le bouillon, qu'il s'agisse du tonkotsu, du miso ou d'une variante tomate, est souvent décrit comme riche et profond, les nouilles bien cuisinées et les garnitures comme le chashu et l'oeuf exprimant une grande qualité. Plusieurs commentaires soulignent la rapidité du service et un accueil attentif, ainsi que le bon rapport qualité-prix et la variété des accompagnements (gyoza, poulet, etc.). Cependant, quelques expériences déplorent une impression moins convaincante, avec un bouillon plus fade, des nouilles trop cuites ou un chashu trop fin, et certains critiquent une heterogene entre les emplacements ou un service qui peut manquer d'attention a certains moments. Dans l'ensemble, Sansotei Ramen demeure une adresse appréciée pour ses saveurs authentiques et son cadre convivial, susceptible de revenir tester d'autres varietes.
A very accessible ramen restaurant located in downtown Montreal, just a 5-minute walk from Guy-Concordia metro station. The atmosphere is calm & pleasant, & the staff-often Japanese-are very friendly.
I do find the menu a bit limited for people who aren't big fans of pork, like myself. However, there is a chicken ramen that I've had twice & highly recommend, especially with the spicy sauce you can add for $1.
Prices are quite reasonable. If you enjoy ch?sh? (braised or marinated pork slices, belly or shoulder), there are three options to choose from depending on your taste.
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.
I was warmly greeted by a friendly staff when I first arrived.
For someone with a seafood allergy, the staff was incredibly helpful in guiding me to safe ingredients for my ramen. It ended up being delicious & everything I was craving.
