Konjiki Ramen in North York

I mean Hokkaido ramen better but this is still great

Rinka was such a lovely, bright, and kind server Made our experience great! Will be coming back

Excellent ramen and service. Tongatsu ramen is one to die for

Compared to Japanese ramen, its still half as good as it is. I hope it can be better and Ill consider helping again.

Ordered the Tori Soba and almost broke a tooth biting down on what looks like a piece of bone. Its ground meat and other soft ingredients so def did not expect that. Poor quality control.

Delicious ramen with extraordinary service!

Best ramen I ever ever had compared to the ramen shops I ve had in Japan. Broth was very rich and flavourful without any other additives. I tried the Wagyu with angus beef ramen as well as the lobster ramen and I highly recommend it.

Kid-friendliness: No kids menu, or simpler dish option Food

The food is okay but the service is amazing and the washroom is so clean, smell better than mine lol. 100/10 for the cleanliness.

The food is great. Im writing this review as Im waiting for my daughter to finish her food. The only issue I have is with the service at the end, I drop 60 dollar cash on a two bowl super size ramen, which came up to 53 including tax. The miss ask me if I wanted change and I answered yes. She comes back and shows me a 5 and a toonie, which gives me no wiggle room to adjust it or gave me any chance to even touch my change. The girl got some skills but that really bothered me mentally because I didnt want to cause of a fuss in front my family. I hope she reads this. Next time, just get the change and leave it on my table. How I tip is my business, but this felt so forced to tip you how you wanted it.

I was worried it wouldnt be delicious because the reviews were so different, but it was really delicious. I ordered clam broth ramen and it was clean and delicious. Compared to other stores, it is true that the quantity is a little less for the same price, but it is not that small. On the contrary, at other stores, I always got sick of leaving food or overdoing it, but since it was just the right amount to begin with, I emptied it completely and felt moderately full. And I think Onsen Tamago is the best here.

The spicy red is absolutely delicious. It tastes very close to the best ramen I ever had in Japan.

Second time at Konjiki Ramen North York and it was fantastic once again! Tried their new Wagyu Ramen and Smokey Black Tonkotsu, both were exceptional. The Wagyu beef was tender, and the broth was flavorful. The Smokey Black Tonkotsu had a unique depth of flavor. Highly recommend trying them out!

A restaurant who scams customers, I ordered delivery from this restaurant on UberEats, the menu offers BUY ONE GET ONE FREE for some items, I ordered TWO different items, and the restaurant ONLY gave me ONE for each item, this is a SCAM! This happened on August 25, 2024.

They have the best ramen with a lovely cafe in Toronto.

As soon as I walked into the shop, the staff greeted me warmly. It put me in a great mood, and the soft-serve ice cream I ordered afterward was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. This is the kind of place that makes you want to come back. The interior is also clean, and the staff are vibrant and friendly. Next time, I plan to try the ramen.

Here s a sample review expressing your concerns about the dining experience: The worst ramen place ever. Very Very Dirty. First, the gyoza arrived broken, with the filling spilling out. The cutlery and dish provided had noticeable oil stains and felt sticky, which is very disgusting and made the dining experience uncomfortable.

This ramen was sooo amazing! I liked the texture of the ramen Also, the staff were very cheerful and nice. I definitely wanna eat it again Food : 5/5 |

The Foggy Ramen - if I m not mistaken- is creamy and delicious. The best I had. The sweets and deserts are great too. Food

I will come back for the ramen, but please improve your wait times and customer service!! Seems like this place is very short staffed. Customers are left waiting in line at the front of the store without any direction or signage... are we supposed to take a number? give our name? After waiting 20 mins in line for our table, we were surprised to see empty tables?? We waited another 30 minutes for ramen... which is probably the longest I have ever waited for ramen. A note to the owners, Ive visited 3 of your locations: Markham (now closed), Shinjuku and this North York location. The best overall experience was in the Markham branch- yes, in my opinion it was better than Shinjukus!!! Please bring back the Markham location :)

This place what makes my go back to the office manageable. Best ramen I have tried in Toronto.

Really miss this place, been here alot when I studied in Toronto. Miss the flavor! Goood ramen on earth!!

Really good strawberry matcha ice cream! The flavors were really intense and even the cone was good. Very friendly server too.

Server completely ignored us and was rude and dismissive.

Food

Edit July 2024 Went and expected a quick lunch, waited for it to open at 11:30am, 1st one in and ordered clam shio right away, waitress asked if I wanted egg I said no, asked if I want half and I specially said only if its included from the price as she showed me the pic with the half egg... Took more than 20 min for the bowl of noodles to arrive, I know exactly because I had to add money to the meter... So they definitely wasnt ready to open as they usually dont take that long being the 1st to order and not busy at all.... Bill came and was charged for the half egg... Not happy with the service... Old post when it first opened: 3 weeks later, we are back, still very busy and had to line up... One star is strictly for the wait staff... Waited a long time for a wait staff to acknowledge we are ready, the waitress asked if we are ready to order but walked away... Same waitress walked by and asked again and told me shell get another waitress to help us but walked to serve others instead... Old review from 3 weeks ago: One of the best ramen Ive had so far and Ive had a lot. The clam shio was what I had and the broth is so refreshing, clear and tasty vs the regular ramen soup base. The noodles are slightly different then the common thick/thin ramen... Its on the thick side and does have its own uniqueness... I think its mixed with some wheat base vs 100% flour... The only reason its a 4 star vs 5 is because of the service/wait staff... Dont get me wrong, they are very nice people and well mannered, but you can tell they do not know how to properly arrange seating... Its still a newly open restaurant, will give it some time but overall the clam shio ramen was outstanding.

Haven t been here for lunch recently but there was a pork katsu don set for $11.95 with udon, dessert and tea which could be upgraded to super size for free! Quality and service was great, will 100% come back

Amazing place!!!

overall great experience

Food is impactful with every bite, warm feeling, cozy atmosphere

Spicy ramen upsized! Great tasting broth, good amount of noodles, thick slices of pork, and spicy chili oil to make it zing. Chicken marriage was very tender and perfectly fried. Great service too!

anyone who writes or rates this restaurant at less than a 4 stars ... mustve caught them on a day that they were down to one newbie person running the show that never made ramen or the customers just landed from Japan and are comparing this restaurant to some 3 Michelin star restaurant in Tokyo. Best Ramen in Toronto!!!

Update Jul 05 2024 Still as good as I remember! Our favourite noodle restaurant whenever we are in the area. Today s lunch is no difference with great noodles as always. The clam and the beef broths are excellent. Highly recommend!

Title: Lobster Paradise - Must-Try Lobster Ramen! Rating: 5/5 Review: This ramen houses special lobster ramen is an absolute delight. The rich, flavorful broth paired with succulent lobster meat and perfectly cooked noodles create a heavenly combination. The attention to detail, fresh ingredients, and top-notch service make this place a must-visit for any ramen and seafood lover

best ramen in toronto

Nice ramen here. Good place to go after shopping.

Best ramen in North York!

Wagyu ramen and premium matcha soft serve ice cream are to die for

Love the Ramen here!

amazing food

10/10 rec

Delicious ramen and lobster gyozas.

I explicitly started in my online order to separate the noodles by itself from the broth and toppings as I have certain family members who have allergies. The order came and this wasnt the case. Called Konjiki North York immediately and all they said they couldnt help me at all with my order. Extremely poor customer service for an order they didnt pay attention to the details.

Top tier ramen. Legit the best you can get. Highly suggest the spicy Red. Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian ramen and truffle fries and other options. Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor. No stairs.

We came here bc we heard about all the buzz for their ramen. I cant lie, the ramen here when compared to other places was interesting. It didnt taste bad, but it didnt taste the best. The broth was very light and tangy and the meat was kind of plain and relied on the broth to make it flavourful. Everything was fresh though! I dont think id come back here for the ramen. But worth a try if you want to! The best thing here was the Green Tea dessert cake. That was literally the best dessert i ve ever had. I wanted to order another one but I held back!

Decent place for ramen

Solid Ramen; rich broth, dense noodles, and plenty of toppings. Personally I find that you ll need to get the larger size to feel really satisfied. The restaurant has decent space and isn t too loud when it s not busy. Service is fast. Plus we got an extra char siu each.

Came in for a takeout. The girl who was taking the order managed to really stress me out with her unprofessional behaviour within minutes. Will see how the food is later.

We had the signature mild and intense clam broth ramen. The soup base and toppings were fine, but the noodle texture was horrendous (I have been here 5-6 times in the past so I know how it is supposed to be). I don t know how long they have cooked the noodles for, but it was extremely chewy and I thought I tasted raw flour. We have requested to recook the noodles, but all they offered was to microwave the entire noodle bowls - didn t really change much even after that. I doubt I will be coming back to this location anytime soon.

I ate ramen here for the first time! I am Japanese, but I can recommend this restaurant to everyone in Canada The staff are also all bright and wonderful! I ordered a Smoky Black. I recommend it to those who like thin noodles and thick soup. Its very delicious! The staff also recommended Mild Shio. Its lighter than Smoky Black so please order according to your preference. I think Ill try that next time too! I was able to have a pretty time here. Everyone, please come!!! Kid-friendliness: This restaurant has forks,spoons and high chairs for children

Came here to grab a dessert after dinner and was definitely shocked by the price given how small the portions were for everything. The taste of the desserts werent anything to write home about, but the matcha ice cream was probably the best out of the things we tried. Definitely try another place if youre trying to satisfy that sweet tooth.

Visited on Mar 23 2024. One of the better ramen places in Toronto and GTA. Had the black garlic oil ramen and it had deeper flavour then other places Ive been to. Not much more expensive either than other cheaper places. Food

Best Tonronto-Japanese Ramen ever!

The worst ramen I ve ever had. Not tasty at all, couldn t even finish it. It doesn t worth the price. It was delivered cold and no utensils either.

Hidden neighborhood gem. Ramen is delicious, matcha ice cream is the BEST. Very friendly servers nice and clean environment.

Worst restaurant ever in terms of service. Highly unprofessional employees with no customer service!

Been here over 5 times now and will continue to come back. Services for lunch or off hours are so quick which is just the way I like it when my ramen craving strikes. Their famous clam broth ramen never disappoints. There are also lunch combos and mini bowls to choose from when you want to get bang for your buck. I ve also tried their lobster ramen before which met my high expectations and was sooo creamy and filling (up to you whether you think the price is worth it). P.s. plan ahead of you re going on weekends because most likely there ll be a line.

Very disappointed in this place. We had the lobster ramen which is the first page special made SPECIFICALLY for this location, accompanied by sea bream and yellow bell peppers? For $35 getting a whole tail and claws was great. Eefu noodles, and lack of flavor and texture in the noodles / broth had me thinking it was an instant noodle pack with a lobster from the store. The fried king oyster mushrooms were cut into really thin slices, like chips. Nothing resembling for mushrooms at all. Not sure why this place is packed or has the reviews it does.

Food was good but the service was very slow and we waited for a long time at the entrance even though there were open tables. Music was absurdly loud and it was difficult to have conversation. They kept playing 2010s Justin Bieber for some reason.

Waited for a simple bowl of ramen for over 15 minutes when I was the only customer. No explanation of why it took so long and no apology. And they don t seem to be aware of the long wait time, and did not enquire kitchen staff about that.

I had Spicy Red ramen. It was so delicious ! And, the calm atmosphere of this restaurant is good. Konjiki ramen is the best ramen restaurant in North York!

Come here pretty often . Consistent nooders. Noice.

The lobster ramen is a must try for seafood lovers. The soup base is rich and creamy and the lobster meat was cooked to perfection. Everything blends well with the soup base and the ramen really fills you up. Food

Disappointed in this place. Was looking forward to trying this place out, but it was not great for me. Food: The vegetarian option I had was pretty bland, to be honest. They had two vegetarian options (an avocado and a potato option), and I ordered the potato one. I asked for some chili oil to give it a bit of flavor, and they brought a very small portion for me to use. We also ordered the fried mushrooms, and they almost tasted like bland, thinly sliced plantain chips. Service: Fine, but could be slow for some. I noticed that a server kept apologizing to another patron who was seated, and Im not sure if its because they were very delayed in getting the patrons food or something else. Atmosphere: I liked the atmosphere well enough. A tall central island has large, sturdy chairs for patrons to sit. You would want to sit next to your party as the distance across the table would make it difficult to hear without being pretty loud. This does mean that you might look up from your food into the eyes of strangers though. The place is attached to the bakery place, and they have a bunch of menus that advertise crossover items. You get a same-day discount at the bakery if you show them the receipt for Konjiki. Vegetarian options: Two vegetarian ramen options. I was not impressed by the potato option I ordered.

This North York Ramen shop is wonderful. Texture and flavours of the ramen there are so good. I was too busy to enjoy the food and forgot to take a picture. The noodle is perfectly cooked. The broth is creamy and delicious. It is a combination of culinary heritage and finesse. Even the egg is cooked just right to achieve a perfect jammy ramen egg. The Matcha (green tea) Ice-cream in Konjiki is certainly a complement to an enjoyable meal. It is as good as the ones I had in Japan. The subtly bitter matcha taste and slightly sweet creamy ice-cream is amazinig. Service is good. Servers have very good manner. They are friendly, welcoming and patient. I would definitely recommend this place for a delightful meal.

This place has one of the good ramen in the city. the flavours were different from what I usually order but it was super delicious. the staff were super nice and helpful. the place is clean. Definitely, a must try

The noodles were thin and not chewy, the pork was not as thick and the egg was half you have to pay to get a full. Compared to Kinton, the price is not as friendly either. I don t think it s worth the price.

It was okay. The service was good, fast and friendly. Food was okay, I tried the clam based ramen and its not as bad as I thought. The desert came from the desert store next to them in the same area. Which you have to pay separately, kinda inconvenient. But overall its an okay experience.

Came in spur of the moment. Best decision.

A favorite ramen spot. Soup is always flavorful and even the regular size is enough to make one full. The photo is the seasonal wagyu bowl (beef flavored broth) and the smoky black tonkotsu, alongside a dish of truffle dumplings. Would highly recommend, cant wait to keep coming back to try everything on the menu!

I had the fried mushroom appetizer and the vegan potato ramen and was disappointed in both dishes unfortunately. The appetizer was very greasy and I could really not taste the mushroom itself. The potato ramen wasn t bad at all but felt very creamy, thick and heavy with got a bit off-putting. I m sure the non vegetarian options are better but I d rather have a simpler good vegan ramen than something overly complex which misses the mark. The service was AMAZING though with very friendly staff.

Good food and good service

I went there and ate vegetarian potato ramen. It was amazing. Taste is like creamy and if you like spicy one, they have a spicy sauce. I recommend you guys to eat as it is at first and then put spicy sauce into soup. And service is great also. I ll go there again soon.

Theres usually a line but maybe its just because its new. Dont worry, the line moves somewhat quickly. Put your name on the list and check out the surrounding area in the mean time. I had the vegetarian ramen which was made with soy milk for the broth. Creamy with a salty kick. Satisfying and filling. The service was prompt despite being new so I only expect it to get better. There is a weird self aggrandizing poster on the wall of the founder. Overall, good experience.

This is a must-go ramen restaurant in Toronto. Its very delicious and the service is great. I have visited many times. The Smokey Black Ramen is especially delicious.

I never knew ramen could be so perfectly balanced and refined until I tried Konjiki Ramen - its no surprise its consistently rated five stars by satisfied customers. Macha soft serve of Saryo is also good!!

I had the smoky black ramen. The toppings were gorgeous and very delicious! The hospitality was also great! I will go again.

I have visited this ramen restaurant many times . It s a great restaurant. I like especially Signature Clam Mild Shio ramen . The egg is delicious, so I add them every time. I was able to feel clam taste. And I also like chicken Karaage and Takoyaki . For me as a Japanese, I hadn t thought I would be able to eat Japanese style food that it s a great quality in Toronto.It was so delicious. And Service is a very good. Quickly and friendly service. This is the best ramen restaurant in Toronto. I will definitely visit again!!!

I went to Konjiki Ramen recently. I ordered Smokey Black The noodles had just the right amount of firmness, the flavor was intense, and everything was wonderful. I think its the best ramen house in Toronto. I would definitely come back. I hope this restaurant will be opened in Korea. And what a cute cafe next door! They had a lot of very pretty cakes on display. Bearpuff was so cute.

One of the best places for ramen and cafè. Tonkotsu are rich, clam-based soups are unique. Friendly service. Food

Tasty ramen.

The fried pork cutlet was overcooked, look as like charcoal, and everything was just super salty

Visited on a sunday after when it was quiet, on a friday or satirday Id recommend booking. Friendly greeting and the staff speaks Japanese. I just wanted to review the menu and I did that with a beer and the fried chicken (a lot of the sake was sold out). The fried chicken was really good and there was a good sized portion for an appetizer. The decor was interesting and the restaurant offers 15% off the cafe in the front. The facilities were well maintained and the price was very reasonable. Ill come again for the ramen.

Signature clam broth ramen: 5/5 My favorite of all time. Usually Japanese ramen broth is too thick for me, but this clam broth solved the problem perfectly. Spicy miso tonkotsu ramen: 4.5/5 My partner tried this and he said it is good Chicken karaage: 4.5/5 Really like their dipping sauce

No word to describe the food. Excellent

Unique tastes!

Tasty ramen!

I ordered Katsudon on Ubereats! Pretty decent taste and portion for the price! I liked it

I went 5 years ago with my best friend who was living in the condo in front of the restaurant, and two months later I went again because the ramen was delicious and I was wanting to impress a girl, that girl today is my wife, that s all I can say, excellent food, excellent place, excellent vibe!

Food is amazing when they havent run out of 70% of the menu items. A bit of a hit or miss for me Parking: On busy yonge street mighr have a hard time finding parking depending time of day.

taste

Previously, there was a restaurant called Aki-something that served both donburi and ramen, but now its the opposite. It has become a restaurant called Konjiki Ramen, where they also serve rice bowls. Konjiki Ramen has become famous for receiving a Michelin star, but personally, I enjoy the rice bowls here. Living in beside city of Toronto, its not often that I get to enjoy such meals dining out. However, one drawback is that the rice isnt particularly delicious. The restaurant has a second-floor walk up style appearance and doesnt look like a typical shop, so its important to be careful looking for it.

The food was absolutely amazing and the staff was very friendly.

They made a mistake with my order. I ordered through skip and the clam broth ramen was missing. Called them and they .told me I can pick it up and they even gave me a free takoyaki however when when I got home the ramen they gave me was shoyu and not the clam. Very disappointed. I was really looking forward to having the clam ramen.

Very authentic Japanese ramen. Dont let the simple menu fool you, the food here was outstanding. The soups were tasty and rich, it was apparent that they were prepared with patience and efforts. The ramen noodles had an excellent texture and consistency, and as a result they had an wonderful mouth-feel. The fried chicken, gyoza, and deep fried mushrooms were all fantastic. Will come back to this place again.

Real nice atmosphere, fantastic food. Got the black garlic ramen, the broth was heavenly!

This is a really great ramen spot in North York. Ive had the wagyu ramen twice and Im a fan. The other ramen options are creamy and super tasty. I recommend the fried mushrooms for appetizer. Theyre crispy and flavourful, like chips but garnished with green onion and much more decadent. During my most recent visit, the server asked if I would like a half or whole egg in the ramen. I think this is a new option. If you like eggs, go for a few extra whole eggs. Theyre jammy and well marinated. I also recommend going for the super sized ramen so you can have next day leftovers.

One of the waitresses forgot to order our food and caused extra wait. Food was really good. Food

We placed an order for pick up and when we got home we noticed a mistake. I called the restaurant right away to notify them and Furkan acknowledged the mistake and said that the next time we would eat at the restaurant he would make it right ! I went the following week and Furkan and his team provided us with exceptional service and compensation. Thank you so much and this will remain our favourite ramen spot in North York!

A nice clean ramen restaurant with high quality noodles. Price is okay but justifies with amazing taste. She was everything to me.

Best Ramen in Toronto! Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant was wheelchair accessible Food : 5/5 |

Really great tasting ramen and good atmosphere. Must try but when busy be prepared to wait Food

Tasty but $15 ramen is a bit much.

Good service and food!

Food was amazing, definitely recommend. The broth wasn t heavy and it was flavourful. Gyoza was fried just right and the filling had plenty of meat. Nice cozy sit down, would definitely recommend

Ordered the clam intense shoyu ramen, the ramen wasn t fully cooked which resulted in me having to chew really hard, next the portions of the ramen weren t the same as the ramen I got half way less noodles than my friends, and finally the ramen had a huge layer of oil which made me have no appetite. I don t know how this place has so many good reviews but it is a true disappointment for me.

Very good ramen. The staff seem very authentic. I didnt ask if they were really Japanese, but they said irashaimase to people that came in, which is the word that they say in Japan to customers. Anyway staff was great, design of the place is also very japanese, music was also very authentic. brilliant place.

(edited) the owner reached out to us to confirm the incident, and after verifying the time and date of the incident, apologized to us, and offered us two free bowls of noodles. As we ve been going to Konjiki for awhile and we never had problems with the flavours of their noodles, we will continue to visit Konjiki. Thanks to the owner for a prompt followup! (original) Utterly terrible service. Our bowls of noodles sat on the counter for well over 5 minutes while the server (an older man who seemed like a manager and he was the only server handling the dining area) prioritized in cleaning tables and getting the bills done for two tables. We saw him look at and walk past our bowls multiple times. My wife and I was looking at the bowls saying they better not be ours, but unfortunately they were. When he brought the noodles to us, I said they were on the counter for too long but would accept them. He did not say a word and left. Ours noodles, as expected, were starchy and soft as they were sitting in the soup for a long time. Zero follow up from him. When he sprayed the table next to us to clean, some of its content got on my wifes arm. She swept it and he saw her doing that too, but again didnt acknowledge it or apologize and walked away. Never ever did this before but did not tip as our experience was table and the noodles were bad. What a shame, as flavor was there.

Great Food Great Atmosphere and Good service. Definitely try all their ramens I got the Spicy Miso Ramen it was great.

Overall fantastic restaurant. Broth has many depths and flavours. Suggest to order the limited time angus and wagyu. It is amazing. Would suggest a pass on the lobster but definitely do order if you want a clean lobster broth and huge lobster tail :)

The place smelled like chlorine. The server could not remember an order of three items. She was too busy on her phone to ask if we liked the food. I had to approach the cashier to catch her attention, and the suggested minimum tip was set at 12%. The ramen was just so so and overpriced. The chicken karaage was not bad. Would not recommend.

I called and was told I can t place the order over the phone and told me to come in while still 15 mins left before they close. I was 2 mins away once I got there, they mentioned the kitchen just closed and the girl who told me to come in just clocked out .. Awful first experience

Food: 4.5 Stars Service: 4 Stars Ambience: 4 Stars Value: 5 Stars Overall: 4.375 Stars Did I mention ramen is my favourite food? I live for ramen. It s such a delicious, affordable savoury flavourful succulent comforting bowl of goodness! I don t think that s enough adjectives to describe how much I love ramen I love my noodles done al dente, and this place has nailed it! The noodles have the perfect firm, chewy texture or, as my fellow Asians would call it, QQ texture. Every bite grabs on to that delicious tonkatsu broth that warms my heart. I always love to order two eggs in my ramen as I love that yummy flavour of their eggs My go-to order is the Original Shoyu Tonkotsu Ramen (15.50 CAD). The staff is always very friendly and provides good service! With elevated seating, the chairs are comfortable, and the dine-in experience is very cozy, especially with their delicious bowl of goodness. One of my favourite ramen houses in Toronto kellychan360

Decent ramen and complex flavours. But service at this location is very poor. And also is very cramped seating. There were not enough waitstaff for the restaurant for a Saturday night, only two. Also due to the high table in centre of the restaurant packed w guests, it is difficult to see and wave the waitstaff to order, get utensils, get bill. We were a table of two, and ordered two clam shio ramens, a gentleman took our order. He didn t seem to understand english too well, and also didn t clarify or repeat the order to us. After a short wait one bowl arrived and we waited another 10 minutes but the other did not arrive. It was already difficult to get their attention, but finally we had to order another one because it was forgotten/missed. I m not sure why he did not clarify the order or remember it as we only ordered two things as a party of two. The price for the ramen is already quite expensive compared to competitors. So the service shouldn t be this poor. No water refilled, no other communication/greetings, no apologies about order missed. We decided to try out this location after multiple great visits to our favourite location in Richmond Hill (that closed down permanently) but this was quite a let down.

Only one table of dine in and it still took them more than 30 minutes to prepare one bowl of ramen... they literally just left the order sitting there and nobody bothered to pack it up

The food was great and high quality but a lot of the items were not available when we went

I absolutely loved the vibe! The food was ( chefs kiss)!!

This ramen restaurant is really good customer service. They are kind. My favorite ramen is Clam Broth that have 2 tastes. It s a authentic ramen !!! Definitely I will go again Food : 5/5 |

I would highly recommend Konjiki Ramen to anyone looking for amazing Ramen in Toronto! My personal favorite is Smoky Black Ramen!! I have been back here so many times and will be back again. Food : 5/5

I usually come here for the lobster ramen, but for some reason, I just didnt find it to be anything special anymore. Paid $32, plus an extra $2 for chill sauce, which is quite absurd, imo especially since it wasnt spicy at all. Also, I added pork belly for another $4.5, which was basically just fat. I also brought some dessert, which was ok but expensive. The atmosphere is nice, the service was just ok. Came in. There was only 1 server, and the restaurant wasnt busy. The server, I guess, was a bit busy. I wasnt knowledged for several minutes. Sat myself down to the long and empty bar table. The food just seems overpriced for what you get. Will I come back? Sure, its better than most ramen joints. Will I come back as frequent not so much. Idk, the food quality seems to have changed. Maybe its the portion size as it just doesnt seem to be the same.

Really good ramen. Excellent pork charshu

When I had Konjiki s ramen bowls a few years ago, it was really good and flavorful, and thought it was nearly as delicious as the bowl of ramen I had in their main branch in Tokyo. However after tasting their ramen a few days ago, I can t help but to notice how different it is from what I had before. Still, can t deny that this is one of the better ramen places in Toronto as far as I m concerned.

One of the better ramen joints in Toronto. Between the clam broth and tonkotsu, I would pick the clam if I were to return, since I think a few places such as Sansotei does a better tonkotsu ramen. The topping choices also leave a lot to be desired - the pork is lean and reminds me of thanksgiving ham, the pickled mustard greens clash with the balanced broth, and normally it comes with a pile of red pickled ginger (I asked for none this time) which completely changes the flavour of the bowl so I feel like it should not be a default topping but perhaps a condiment on the side. That being said, I really liked the smoothness and richness of the tonkotsu, and the firm and chewy whole wheat noodles were perfect. (Original shoyu tonkotsu - 7/10) Now the clam broth is at least something that s unique to Konjiki. It s quite delicate but exactly what you d want in a clam-based broth, but might not be for those who crave that rich tonkotsu flavour when going out for ramen. (Signature clam mild shio - 8.5/10) Some other things I noticed - usually ramen places will have extra noodles as an add on, but this place does not. You only get the option of supersizing your bowl for $21 (more than extra noodles would cost). Marinated egg is extra for $2, but is my favourite topping. The wagyu ramen has never been available in the 3 times I went for dinner, so go early if you want to try that. Appetizers are pretty standard, can t go wrong with a freshly fried karaage. On a regular weekday at 7pm, the wait isn t bad, around 15-20 minutes.

Been here a few times now, it has quickly become one of the favourite places in the gta, and not just for ramen!

Not as quite good as I thought it would be. The service is disappointed that I didn t get a glass of water

We went to this place with a group of 6 (one toddler) and it was great that they could accommodate us :) I ve ordered the lobster ramen (only on Wednesday) and it was very tasty!! Kid-friendliness: They had a high chair for my (toddler) little niece.

We read the magazine Torja, Toronto and Japan August 2023, and came here for the Yuzu Ebi Shio Raman. However, they didn t have the Yuzu Ebi Shio Raman. The stuff said they don t know about this Raman at all. Apparently, there is a gap between magazine and real store menu. We drove for 40mins to get here, so we decide to order some other Raman . My wife and I ordered a Shio Raman and a Unagi Set. In the unagi lunch set, it said your choice of daily cake/dessert. I thought waitress would ask us for what we would like for dessert, but they didn t. Instead, they bring us the dessert without ask any question. When we ask them about what choice do we have, the waitress shows confused. It looks like that she has never been taught that customer can choice dessert. Waitress still provide us the choice, but I can t forget how confused her face was. Therefore, this service quality isn t stuff s problem. It is lack of education from the management. Management also failed to make sure their special menu in magazines is available in store menu. I still wish that I will be able to try this Shio Yuzu Ebi Raman in future.

amazing food

Servers were awesome! and food is great as always!

You can tell that the Shoyu broth is cooked with great care, not just hot water poured over a packet of instant ramen, like in so many ramen places. The flavours of the broth and toppings balance each other out perfectly. For $15, you get a large bowl of ramen (the regular size), which in itself is very filling; but I would also recommend the pork and vegetable Gyoza. I have dined here many times and plan to come back again - this is my favourite ramen place.

Delicious ramen, the noodles are well cooked here and you cant miss the chicken karage

A bit expensive but the ramen was good and the staff were friendly.

Been here for 3rd time...Food pretty good, tried spicy miso ramen (tried both level 1 & 2 spicy), level 2 not as hot as what the menu described, but thats personal preference. The Chicken Karaage don set, really good... Chicken is juicy! Picked cream puff as the dessert for the don set, taste good! Only one thing to complain, the food waiting time was quite long, with only 2 tables in the whole restaurant. But definitely worth for a try!

We have not visited this ramen shop for a while. They expanded the menu to include Japanese Don for lunch. The ramen quality is still very good. Both of the Signature Clam Shio Ramen have excellent clam soup base. I still recommend people coming this ramen shop for authentic Japanese ramen!

The food was pretty good. The fried mushrooms and Takoyaki were great - special shout out to the Takoyaki which was creamy and warm on the inside! The ramen was good, and the ramen options are all inclusive but I would have appreciated more non-pork options or non-pork subsistions as I feel like I missed out on most of the menu because I can t eat pork.

Come here regularly to have the smokey black ramen. I usually find ramen too salty but this place has it right! My ramen is always on point and delicious. Service has always been great as well. Highly recommend this ramen place as well as the ice cream from Saryo that they partner up with.

An update. Ease of ordering direct or through DoorDash, Uber Eats. Fast, accurate and courteous for pick up. 2 Michelin stars cuisine for home enjoyment. Kudos to chefs and all staff. Lobster Ramen is amazing, they serve at North York location daily over the COVID 19 period. The broth is like Lobster bisque without cream. 28$ worth every penny, it should be on anyone s bucket list.

My absolute favourite ramen place in North York!! Price is quite fair and comparable to other restaurants, and their ramen is very special (Clam broth).

food is nutty

The ramen was delicious. I got the Spicy red tonkotsu supersize and it was the perfect amount of spice once I mixed everything together. It was very filling.

The ramen and food offered here are more or less what one would anticipate from a Japanese restaurant in Toronto - neither exceptional nor terrible. However, the issue with the establishment lies in the poor attitudes exhibited by the staff, which, in my opinion, necessitate further training. While I dont mind paying for average food, it never feels justified to endure disrespectful treatment as a customer.

Although their portions arent that big, we were very comfortable for a long time after. Food quality and service was great.

Black tonkotsu ramen is the best ramen i ever had. Vegetarian potato soy milk ramen was hearty but not quite my style. Nice servers.

By far my favourite ramen place in Toronto. My go-to is the smoky black tonkotsu. Fresh, chewy noodles with sous-vide pork chashu, roasted garlic oil, smoked cherry tomatos, smoked ground pork, braised bamboo shoot, spring onion, and leek all swimming in pork bone broth. The dish is smoky, hearty, and never fails to satisfy me. To top it off, you can add a soft-boiled egg for a bit extra, which I always recommend. Service can be slow sometimes but its always worth the wait. P.S., the place is always full, so keep that in mind before you come. Not sure if they take reservations. Vegetarian options: Theres vegetarian ramen and appetizers.

I am very generous to rate 2 but not 1. I ordered the lobster ramen and Aussie wagyu ramen. However , the taste of wagyu is sour and the soup base is so bitter. That s really disappointing. As for lobster one, it s ok but the soup is too rich enough. For the service, it s really disturbing when I was enjoying ramen with a friend but the staff is spreading some disinfectant, the odor is too strong , bad experience.

Lunch time specials Love the ramen here! It is what I like + noodle style (thin) , karaage chicken and truffles fries so good! Free egg with lunch special must order . I will come back again! Food

5 stars: I had the $16 spicy miso tonkotsu ramen with mild spice, which was still pretty spicy in a pleasant way (it has spicy in the name for reason, even if you get mild). It was a fair portion and very delicious. No complaints. Food

Definitely get the ramen when you come here. Their clam broth is super refreshing and has a great mild taste. Unfortunately, I opted to get the eel bowl and while it wasn t bad, it was not very good. Definitely frozen and had a chew to it. Their lobster gyoza was also a little questionable but the rest of the stuff was good. Staff was super nice and attentive.

We ordered the most expensive dish Wagyu Ramen and we exited to get the joyful experience. But for the price 38$ they could be at least more creative. The broth was extremely greasy and plane. Through the fat you can t really feel any flavour. Meat, plenty of noodles and onions that all you will get in your plate. Serving wagyu beef I believe chief may use little bit more creativity. I am happy that we got this dish with the promotion code otherwise it would be a waste of money and expectations. Ramen with expensive beef must not leave you feeling that you ate a greasy soup with beef and noodles.

Tried the wagyu ramen. It was bomb. broth is good and tasty would come back again

It has a very authentic Japanese vibe, great customer service and awesome food the husband and I were impressed but wont be coming in often since we live in Markham

The seats are comfortable and the ramen is of good quality

Had the lobster and wagyu/angus ramen. They were fine but for the price definitely a try just once item. Beef pieces were a bit tough and I thought the broth was just ok. I liked the lobster butter but I thought the ramen altogether was a bit too salty. Noodles had a great texture.

Really enjoyed the unique taste of the smokey black tonkotsu ramen. Also I usually do not like clams or shellfish, but after trying a bit of the house special clam broth ramen that my partner ordered, I actually didn t mind it. Its really nice that the broths were also not too salty, and did not parch you afterwards. I was able to drink most of it and feel fine hours later. Staff was really friendly, to the point of sharing a joke, and service was super fast. Additionally we also shared a 6 pc gyoza appetizer, which was good too! I can see why this place does so well.

Cute, cozy and tasty give a like

When word first started circulation that Japan s prized Michelin star Ramen establishment was opening up in Toronto, I could not wait to try it, and it did not disappoint. The main star of the show is curated from local produce, bar the noodles, which Mr. Atsushi Yamamoto himself had imported the noodle making machine over from Japan to ensure the same standard of excellence. Placing both hands on either side of the ramen bowl, the feeling is warming, but just a little too hot to keep holding on comfortably (meaning just the right temperature). Dipping the spoon in to explore, there are 5+ sections of the clamshell broth that are completely diverse in taste. Some consisting of shallots, others the spring onions, some with a more meaty taste of the finely cut chashu, and others of the marinated richness of the broth alone. The noodles are unique, almost square cut (not rounded), cooked Al dente, and have just the right springy texture and surface area to encapsulate the surrounding ingredients with a few slurps. Konjiki is not to be mistaken for the morish-ness, of some of the neighbouring establishments, where the MSG carry the dish. Konjiki is truly a culinary experience, that will appeal to the more experienced palette without the need for additives. There are a few customer favourite dishes, for those who d rather stick to either Vegetarian (like kaiso salad), or chicken based (such as Karage). The location can be packed, but in most cases the turnover runs like clockwork so expect to be seated within 30mins to an hours wait time, unless it s peak times, in which case make reservations. Absolutely worth a trip specific detour, and trying at least once.

Good ramen, personally i find this store is better than the other branch inside the Yorkdale Mall.

This was my favourite ramen in 2017-2020. The clam broth is one of my favourites. It still is! It s with huge regret, my biggest disappointment was today. As soon as I sat down at lunch, the server asked me if I was ready to order. I needed a few mins to decide. She forgot about the wobbly table that I was sat at and I had to remind her. I asked for fork and bowl for my kid, and she came back with chopsticks. I had to remind her. With the same server, I noticed she was in the washroom and didn t wash her hands after she left. The vinyl seats also need a good repair. Today s one was letdown. She was the tall, skinny one with the glasses. She was quite unkempt. The food and broth is always good. What would help is some new innovation to the menu. The restaurant was packed when it first opened. It s gone gradually downhill since. I am so gutted. Where is Tony? He was so good and listened to feedback. He paid attention to the smallest of details along with most of his staff. Whoever was there was today was just a hot mess.

Got the gyoza, original shoyu tonkotsu and smokey black tonkotsu ramen. Seated to served was very quick, the ramen arrived a few minutes before the gyoza. All the food was fresh and delicious.

Its delicious

The service is good, just the taste of ramen is not what I expected, I was a bit disappointed after eating it. Hopefully, they can improve their soup and chashu in the future.

Cute place, friendly efficient service. Mushrooms app was kinda useless. The karaage (fried chicken) was delicious especially with the wasabi mayo. Lobster was ramen was alright, comes with a tail and a claw. The pork in it was tasteless though. Noodles werent the best. Wagyu beef ramen was alright. The chunks at the bottom were delicious but the beef slices were tasteless. Matcha sundae was too bitter. Black tea sundae was delicious. The sake by the glass from a carton was very sweet. They didnt have our first choice available.

This resto takes me back to Japan! I was so lucky to get the limited quantity wagu beef ramen, and Hubby got the spicy Miso ramen. I was so happy with all the meat in mine, what a treat, yummmm. Btw we took regular size, even though it looked small upon arrival at the table, it was quite filling?! I was fully fed by the end of the bowl. Love it

Quick and friendly service. The intense clam broth was a bit underwhelming. It just taste like shoyu only, no clam taste. The tonkotsu ramen taste better. Not heavy in MSG, will give credit for that! The interior is ok but the sofa is really beaten up and the leather surface is peeling everywhere.

Great food.

Love their set meals and cream puffs!

Things have changed here since when they first opened. It no longer has the MICHELIN flavor and taste.

An unassuming little gem with amazing ramens and flavourful broth.

Hands down, Best in city. Try the lobster one, there will be no leftovers All good however management is charging for hot sauce!?! Condiments are usually free of charge.(fyi, we are not referring to a home made, secret sauce, but only normal hot sauce) Parking: Paid street parking

Not much to say, it s quite delicious.

huge fan of their clam broth! lighter than most ramens, but still full of flavour

Ramen was great! Bit pricy and their chashu was little different from other ramen places

OM NAME

Always have a good meal here. The unique clan broth based ramen is delicious. Usually very busy but worth the wait!

The smoky black ramen tasted like a campfire in my mouth in the best way possible! Get this restaurant a Michelin star!

This ramen spot is awesome! The food is super tasty flavorful broths and perfect noodles every time. But what really makes it stand out is the great service. The staff is friendly and on top of things, making your meal even more enjoyable. If you love ramen, this place is a winner!

We stopped in for the shoyu tonkotsu and spicy red tonkotsu ramen. The presentation was nice and they both tasted great as well!

About a year ago I gave 5 stars for their ramen, but their other menus are horrible. Such a small portion and they serve cold

Honestly really disappointed. I had a bad experience with Konjiki at Yorkdale mall, but i brushed it off because I thought to myself mall food isn t that good anyway. Which takes me to this review. I was near the area and decided to give Konjiki another chance honestly to be disappointed in the end. There is just no flavour in the broth and the noodles are not even good either. It was bland and tasted like flour. I also ordered karage because I like to compare appetizers at different ramen spots, and this one was honestly the worst one yet. It was not crispy at all, was oily, and on top of that it wasn t even cooked through properly. I bit into it, it wasn t hot at all and I saw pink. I m only giving this place two stars because the server took the karage off my bill. Otherwise I think the Konjiki brand needs to try their own menu and fix it.

I was genuinely disappointed by the food quality, the pork char siu was dry and COLD, the egg was fully cooked (rather than a traditional soft boiled egg). The noodles and the broth are alright. But I was genuinely surprised by the mediocre pork and egg. The staff were very polite and friendly.

Excellent service and food - specially their signature Clam Intense Shoyu Ramen. Will definitely go again.

It was my first time eating ramen since coming to Toronto. I ordered Spicy red and the soup was very delicious with just the right amount of spices. The seasoned eggs were delicious too so I added them :) Food

I visited this restaurant at noon on December 17th. Let me talk about the food first. I ordered the pork chop rice set with smooth egg. The pork chop itself is delicious, with thin and crispy skin, but the smooth egg underneath is really not good. I know if the chef forgot to add the flavor, and I can t taste the flavor of the sauce of the pork cutlet rice at all. I hope this can be improved. 4.5/10. Regarding the soup part, after observation, it seems that it is not freshly cooked, but is brewed with dry powder and hot water, and it is not stirred evenly after brewing, so the soup above has no taste when drinking it. But when it goes down it becomes very salty 2/10. Then about the cake, the taste of the cake is not bad, but it has a pinky taste, which makes people feel weird. 7/10. To sum up the above points, the chance of me returning for a return visit should be low, because the meals are not cheap either. The price of this set meal is 20.5 Canadian dollars before tax and 23.16 Canadian dollars after tax!

tasty ramen, wagyu and angus beef ramen had a lot of meat, very recommend nice cake shop amd dessert shop beside it Food

Disappointing service and food

Wonderful staff and 5 star food!
