I gave this place another chance after having a disappointing experience here a few years ago, but unfortunately it was disappointing again.
The chashu was decent, around 7/10, & the broth was just average, maybe 6/10. The biggest problem was the noodles. They were somehow both clumped together & so overcooked/broken that I could barely pick them up with chopsticks. I literally had to eat the noodles with a spoon. For a ramen restaurant, that is a pretty serious issue.
At around $33 after tax & tip, the value was also poor for what I got. The neighborhood & atmosphere are great, but the ramen itself did not live up to the reputation.
Broth: 6/10
Chashu: 7/10
Noodles: 3/10
Value: 4/10
Overall(weighted): 4.5/10
Maybe I was unlucky twice, but after two disappointing visits several years apart, I probably won't be coming back.

Original post:
Extremely bad experience. I waited over 30 minutes, & the waiter didn't put my name on the waiting list, even though he did ask for my name! After the meal, I asked for a napkin to clean my mouth.'There's no more, sir.' Okay. I then noticed that the same person who said that brought a bunch of napkins to the people sitting close to me after I came out of the toilet.

Soft noodles, warm soup, & only the fried chicken tasted not that bad. Like someone said above, this restaurant wouldn't last over a month in Tokyo.

Malgré une attente très longue, le service est impeccable. Les ramen sont très bon, cependant le bouillon est trop épais & devient un peu écoeurant vers la fin. Sinon adresse que je recommande !

This & Yokato Ramen have been on my list of places to visit for a while now. I had the chicken ramen with sesame broth & thin noodles, & the flavours were on point. Sweet, savoury, & spicy, everything was perfectly balanced, & the noodles were cooked perfectly.

The portions are also quite generous for $25. The potato croquettes my friend ordered were equally amazing & I highly recommend.

I'll be back.

In between 2015-2022, Yokato Yokabai had an elite Pork tonkotsu ramen for Montreal. Just went back a couple of days ago & I was delighted to have enjoyed a superb Pork tonkotsu ramen (rich, creamy with a dazzling texture exactly as any great tonkotsu ramen broth is supposed to be), the house-made noodles (that I always request'thin' to carry on the tradition) had impeccable texture & even the Chashu was sublime (as in balanced sweet-&-savory flavor, a rich layer of smoothly rendered fat, a structure that holds its shape, the tenderness they rightly advertised), all as great exactly as in those aforementioned brighter years. Great job Yokato Yokabai! Excellent service, superb atmosphere.

Si vous aimez quand c'est goûteux, je vous recommanderais de mettre le niveau de sel à élevé. Pour un bouillon plus riche, allez-y pour celui au porc, celui au poulet est plus léger mais tout aussi goûteux. Overall, ce sont les meilleurs ramens que j'aurais goûté à Montréal.

The ramen is great, but the mocktail is not worth it. The atmosphere is too dark to see the menu clearly.
