Japanese Ramen restaurant. Specializes in Fukuoka style Tonkotsu Ramen. Home made creamy Tonkotsu broth, organic, totally Non-MSG. Also serves some small side dishes and Japanese beer.
Overall, reviews describe Tsukuyomi Ramen as a visually striking, cozy space with Japan-inspired decor and a lively vibe that many find engaging, though a few note it can be noisy or busy; the staff are repeatedly praised for friendly, knowledgeable service and speedy attention, with reservations recommended during peak times. The ramen earns widespread praise for depth of flavor, well-balanced broths, and generous portions, especially tonkotsu and miso varieties, while some bowls are described as excellent and others as good but with room for improvement, such as noodles or the egg in certain dishes or the vegan ramen not meeting expectations. Appetizers like gyoza and karaage are commonly liked, and the beer or sake offerings are highlighted as a nice pairing, with the location noted for value and consistency compared with similar spots in Montreal. A few reviews mention changes or inconsistencies over time, or preferences for certain bowls over others, but the overall sentiment is that Tsukuyomi Ramen provides an authentic feel and is a standout option for ramen in the area, with plans to return.
The reason why I didn't give 5 starts is because they completely forgot to put the egg in my Ramen 😭
It was ordered via Uber eats.
Otherwise, the food is delicious.
Bad experience. The waiter forced us to have starters & the main dish Ramen at the same time. I explained to him that we would like to have the starters first & then the Ramen. He just wouldn't do it & try to give me some weird explanations. Attitude. If you like this restaurant I highly recommend you go to their other location like the one in Mile End.
After coming back from our honeymoon in Japan, my wife & I started noticing a painful pattern. Every ramen place we tried felt like a messy remix of a beloved classic, the kind where the original melody is there somewhere, but it's buried under auto tune, unnecessary bass drops, & one guy yelling his producer tag every ten seconds. Technically ramen, spiritually off key.
Funny thing is, we had actually been to Tsukuyomi Ramen before our trip. We liked it at the time, but we didn't quite understand how good it really was. Then we went to Japan, got spoiled silly, came home, & bounced from one disappointing bowl to another. By the time we circled back to Tsukuyomi, we were honestly scared that it would disappoint us too. Nothing hits quite like the fear of discovering your old favorite was only good before you knew better.
So we went back to Tsukuyomi anyway, hoping for the best & bracing for heartbreak.
The bowls landed, my wife took one sip, & she delivered the verdict we'd been chasing.'Japan good.'
Not Canada good, not almost there, not good in a nostalgic way. Actually Japan good. The broth has real depth, the noodles have the right bite, & the entire bowl finally matched the harmony we remembered from the ramen shops we visited on our trip.
& as a bonus, they are also the only spot we have found in Montreal with actually good Yuzu beer. Not a knockoff citrus beer pretending to be fancy, but the real crisp refreshing deal that pairs perfectly with a proper bowl.
It turns out Tsukuyomi had been the real deal all along. We just needed the round trip to appreciate it.
If you have been mourning the loss of proper ramen since coming back from Japan, this place is the one that finally hits the right chords. For us, it was like rediscovering a favorite record & realizing it always sounded better than the remixes.

Par le passé, le goût du bouillon du ramen était exceptionnel. Cependant la recette que nous avons goûté lors de notre dernière visite semble avoir changée. Le bouillon goûtait peu, semblait dilué en goût & épaissi avec un épaississant. J'espère que la recette originale sera de retour. Ce n'était pas un délice comme par le passé.
All elements of the ramen (& the 3 entrees we had) were just perfect. Could have done without the corn but it didn't take anything away from the ramen.
We went there as a group of friends. We booked the table online in advanced & we didn't had to wait for our table.
Some of us were the first time in a ramen restaurant. The waiter was very kind & answered all our questions about the ramen & the sake.
We ordered a couple of starters, which we shared, & everybody ordered a ramen.
Starters were delicious & also the ramen was very good!
The billing was easy, the waiter knew exactly how to split the bill.
I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
Delicious ramen, cool vibe, the decor is really original & i felt transported back to japan. Had the lychee & mango sawa which were so yummy & didn't taste like alcohol at all (dangerous haha)
Amazing ramen place in Montreal great for anyone with dietary restrictions with a vegan ramen dish. Beautiful interior & great vibe, closest thing to being back in Japan. The lychee Sawa is a must & definitely the matcha cheese cake
