Yokato Yokabai est une destination de choix pour d'authentiques ramens tonkotsu de style Hakata. Reconnu pour son bouillon d'os de porc riche et crémeux mijoté pendant des heures et préparé entièrement sans GMS, ce restaurant chaleureux offre un véritable goût du Japon. Avec ses nouilles faites maison, ses bols personnalisables et ses à-côtés savoureux comme le fameux poulet karaage, il propose une expérience traditionnelle d'une qualité exceptionnelle.
Dans l'ensemble, Yokato Yokabai Ramen est fréquemment salué pour ses bouillons riches et profundamente aromatiques et ses nouilles bien travaillées, beaucoup de gourmands le qualifiant du meilleur ramen à Montréal et notant des notes authentiques de style Hakata que l'on peut personnaliser; l'ambiance est chaleureuse et conviviale mais souvent animée et bruyante, l'espace étant parfois étroit et les files d'attente longues, facilitées par un système de SMS pour avertir quand la table est prête; les accompagnements comme karaage et edamame reçoivent de bons échos, tandis que certains trouvent les prix élevés ou les bols pas toujours assez chauds et considèrent parfois l'expérience surévaluée selon le moment, la table et le plat.
We had dinner here at 5pm on a Friday. No line to get in & was promptly seated. The restaurant was small & my husband & I were put in a seat facing the wall which was fine. The restaurant was dark & hot. Hot because they are literally cooking the food with fire right in front of you! Which is awesome. I hate when ramen comes out warm/hot. This came out extremely hot which is perfect.
I ordered the sesame broth with normal salt & chicken teriyaki. The broth was nice & creamy. They put HUGE pieces of chicken in the soup. I was actually shocked. It was all very filling. If you aren't absolutely starving or aren't the type of person to have a big appetite, you can share one bowl with two people. $22 for that much food was great.
The service was great & the food came out quick. Clean big washrooms as well.
Love this place for its amazing sesame broth & tender noodles. The taste is always there. The ambiance is similar to Tokyo izakayas, tight but enjoyable. My favourite ramen place.

Yokato Yokabai Ramen is definitely one of the best ramen place in Montreal. Their ramen is super delicious & the prices are reasonable. Service is great as well. I also love their karaage & edamame beans. They also have a bar section to grab a beer/drinks with friends/coworkers. Would easily recommend this restaurant. Only con : it's often busy so might have to wait for a table.
Ramen was tasteless. Nothing like a good ramen should be rich & full of umami. Pork look old & dry. If you get the chicken instead you would get big pieces of chicken thighs that they call teriyaki chicken but looks more like steamed chicken. Chicken garage was good nothing out of this world. They should make better ramens

De l'extérieur on ne s'attend pas à apprécier autant ce que l'on va manger. Les ramens sont vraiment extras, peu de choix, mais les choix disponibles sont maîtrisés à la perfection. Les prix sont raisonnables & le services est très agréable.
Adresse à faire à 100%.
Saturday 12:30 pm, 5 minutes wait, seated at the bar. Ordered sesame broth chicken ramen. Really thick broth, & they gave me probably three chicken thighs worth of meat, really generous amount I almost couldn't finish. I'd say it's a decent flavor, but it's not unmatched, you can probably find similar taste downtown Montreal. It's worth the visit if you happened to be close & there's no line.
Vous aimez les ramens, vous cherchez une ambiance digne des meilleur shonen ? Ne chercher plus vous êtes au meilleur endroit de Montréal !!! Un délice.
I'm so sad this ramen has gone quite downhill from since I first started going years ago. the pork used to be fatty & tender but now flat & dry, the kara miso wasn't as complex as I remembered, broth pretty mid, & they somehow made the shiitake flavourless. I used to drink all the broth at the end but I barely wanted to finish the bowl this time. we also had the spicy karaage & it was very one note.
also what's up with the far corner table?? the two person bench is ridiculous & uncomfortable to manoeuvre. the service wasn't spectacular either; I filled out my form, went to the washroom, came back & the server still hadn't took it. I went up to the cash to put our orders in.
this was my favourite ramen out of any spot in montreal/toronto/vancouver at one point but now I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
I was overcharged for everything, as shown in my picture. The server told me they just recently changed prices, but it's illegal to advertise a certain price & up charge later on the final bill.
Maybe it's the truth, or maybe they're just banking on you not noticing! I'm thinking it's the latter, I ordered 2 eggs but only got 1.5!
Dont wait in line, this place is just riding on old fame… mediocre ramen too

Best Ramen in the city. Wish it were a little hotter (temperature), but great food & vibes.
Update: took friends here tonight. All the ramen dishes were luke warm. Really a problem. Food was a long time coming. Great servers & vibes but not sure I am willing to risk another cold bowl of ramen.
