Ikkousha Ramen Toronto features some of the best noodles in the city. “Made by professionals only”, - a phrase touted proudly, their global presence backed up by their consistency.

The broth is brown, often frothy, and rich, especially the Shoyu, and with the table condiments is enhanced even further. At base tier (no spice) I personally find just a few chilli flakes and sesame seeds bring out the best overall taste, however, others swear by their “Godfire” (the fires of hell in a bowl basically) and 3 chilli icons.

Portions an excellent, with the finely sliced chashu more than likely pouring over the side of the bowl, and the sushi nori towering proudly above the bowl, flying like the globally recognised flag of ramen.

The eggs are perfectly poached, with a medium hard texture that explodes if you pressing the tongue against the top of your mouth.

The side dishes aren’t too bad either, with better than average rich and a combination of wow factor ingredients together.

This is a top 3 ramen location in Toronto, and worth a quick stop for anyone visiting town or living there.

It got VERY busy shortly after we ordered our food. It was like night and day. The food was absolutely delicious though, so I get the hype.
The hours were interesting but with good ramen comes lots of prep so I won't complain, just sharing that so you look into it before heading over.

Stopped in here for takeout and the service was amazing. From the order sheet to the speed of getting my order everything was great. I could tell it was going to be good as the line for tables was out the door. Once I got my ramen back to my desk is was amazing. The broth was amazing and the pork so good and simple. I’ll be back again to try the spicy one and others as it was great.

The soup is incredibly delicious, boasting a rich blend of flavors that delight the palate. The portions are generous and satisfying, ensuring a fulfilling dining experience. The menu offers a plethora of choices, catering to a wide range of preferences and cravings. Undoubtedly, I'm already looking forward to my next visit, eager to relish the exceptional culinary offerings once more.

My favorite Ramen place in Toronto! They don't have a big fancy menu, but they are really good at making Ramen. I have tried most of their Ramen in the past and all of them taste great! Their servers are always welcoming and attentive which is an extra bonus.

Toronto feels like a blend of L.A.,New York, and San Francisco they even have their version of time square. Also, a variety of incredible food! I was surprised when I saw Ikkousha. Because they have a branch in LA, I believe. So i have to eat there immediately!

I always love how they prepare their ramen. The richness of the noodles and its texture, the delicious fatty broth, and the chasu so soft. They never disappoint. Until we see each other again.

Now that’s some good ramen! This place is packed on a Friday night, as expected. I think the flavours and service are authentic, staff were very sweet and accommodating. Ordering is simple, you just check off the specifications for your bowl on a sheet and give it to the staff! Maybe I didn’t order the right bowl, but it was alright. Good bowl of ramen but no wow factor. It was also nice to see some good vegetarian options!

The wait staff here provided us the friendliest customer service I’ve experienced in a long time. Every staff member was incredibly friendly, helpful and inviting.
The ramen itself was also great. I was warned about the spice level of the God Fire, and it was indeed pretty spicy at level 1 of 4. The egg is an excellent add on, although next time I would leave out the pork ball.
There are two Ikkousha Ramen storefronts just a couple doors away from each other. One serves pork ramen dishes, and the other serves chicken. We visited the pork location but I’m sure the chicken is just as great. I would be happy going to whichever one first offers you a table!
