Info & Location
About us
UMAMI RAMEN & IZAKAYA is the very first fully vegan ramen restaurant in Montreal.
Thanks to the import of a Japanese machine for making noodles, the establishment makes its own homemade noodles from organic wheat, in addition to making its broths, Tsukemono, kombucha and sprouts! The restaurant offers several varieties of ramen and small classics of Japanese Bistronomy in a vegan version. Whether we think of okonomiyaki, gyozas, Agedashi tofu or even tempeh Tonkatsu, Cédric and his team are happy to present to you every day, from starter to dessert, these revisited Japanese classics... just a few exclusives straight out of our kitchens. And who says Izayaka, of course, says refreshing beers, sumptuous wines, intoxicating cocktails, delicate sakes and other fine wine products. At Umami Ramen, we experience cruelty-free gastronomy at its best!
Our Specialties
Ramen, Tsukemen, Wafu Salad, Shishito, Korroke, Okonomiyaki, Homemade fermentation, Homemade dessert, Private importation of Sakes & Cocktails.

via LibroMeilleur resto à Montréal. Très impressionné par le service & la nourriture. Je laisse rarement un commentaire mais dans le cas présent je doit dire que l'expérience était de 10/10
via LibroThe quality of the food is high but I found it too salty for my taste. I drank the entire bottle of water & was thirsty through the evening when I returned home. The service was cordial but when it got busy I could see them forgetting a couple of things. That happens & that doesn't take away the experience as the service workers were kind & apologetic. This is my second time here. The first time was last year in the fall. I ordered different dishes the second time & still found it salty like the first time. I had the gyoza the first time didn't order them again as I found them bland. The tonkatsu was not bad but the sauce was (again)very salty. I preferred having them with just the lemon. The wafu salad was boring with only the greens with a little tempura pearls that does not justify that price range. Some other veggies could have made it more interesting & maybe worth the price point. The tan tan ramen dish I ordered was very salty including the tofu. Last year it was a curry ramen same thing very salty. If I had to choose between the two the tan tan was better. I didn't finish the broth due to the saltiness although I found the spice level perfect nonetheless. Dessert was good the yuzu ice "cream" was very refreshing & did clear the palate of the saltiness out of my mouth. I would like to come back & try different dishes from the last two times to compare. I didn't order any cocktails as I don't drink alcohol & just stuck with the water. The last time I ordered a non alcoholic version & was charged the same. Every other place reduced the price point as there was no alcohol or made it larger & added more juice. So this was why I stuck with the water.
via LibroUn repas en famille mémorable! Merci pour cette belle expérience culinaire!
via LibroLes Ramen, le dessert & le saké étaient excellents; le gyoza était très ordinaire & le enoki au champignon est peu intéressant par manque de saveur. Le service était inégal probablement par manque de serveurs. Nous y retournerions pour les ramens qui éataient suprebes.
via LibroJ'y retournerez sans hésitation tout était parfait délicieux les serveurs sont super bons 👍
via LibroJ'ai découvert un resto qui m'a fait découvrir de belle saveur & texture & surtout tout en légume . Je suis un grand consommateur de viande première fois dans un resto vegan ... & ça seras la dernière fois
via LibroWonderful food. The four of us had the tasting menu - 2 dishes were too small to really share - but otherwise it was nicely paced & delicious. The only downside was that the restaurant was too warm - the air conditioner was right beside an open door (!) at one end so did little to cool the restaurant.
via LibroComme d'habitude j'ai adoré mon expérience! Seul bémol : les mouches à fruit étaient vraiment au rendez-vous à la table. C'était malheureusement distrayant, mais ça se règle. 🙂
via LibroOn a bien aimé l'ambiance en général bien qu'extremement chaud en intérieur. Les plats Isakaya étaient excellent. Les ramens était OK mais pourraient être mieux. Les nouilles était un peu trop dure & il manquait de topping. Belle experience en général.
via LibroWhat a lovely accident that we found this place while looking for vegan restos open on Monday. We ordered the tasting menu & my only complaint was how full I got! The food was amazing, the drinks were fantastic & the service was lovely. A wonderful date night for our last night in Montreal! The matcha ice cream was so good!!!!!
via LibroTrès joli resto de quartier avec charmante terrasse isolée procurant un havre de paix au coeur de ce quartier animé. Nourriture excellente & service impeccable, attentionné, discret tout en étant sympathique. La banquette extérieure en bois n'est pas vraiment confortable, la prochaine fois j'apporterai un petit coussin ;-)

Nou avons pris le menu dégustation & un verre sans alcool avec gingembre sublime.
Présentement des plats & goût exquis.. Le service était impeccable. Merci pour cette belle expérience.
via LibroLoved it. Best ramen ever. Will come back with friends. Posted a Google review. Thx guys!
via LibroTables un peu proches les unes des autres. Beaucoup de sollicitation de la part des serveurs/euses. Jamais Servi par la même personne mais ce n'est pas un problème. Il faisait très chaud, un peu de ventilation aurait été apprécié. Très bon service par ailleurs, excellent repas. Très belles présentations. Belles couleurs, bonnes portions. Je recommande.
via Librola bouffre 10/10 (tout est bon), le personnel est gentil & attentionné, super ambiance
