Reviews for Chika Ramen Izakaya in Québec, QC
Excellent spot for a cocktail and ramen! I definitely recommend the chashu pork! Service was extremely welcoming/friendly and... the atmosphere was cozy and modern. Would be a great spot for a party. Lovely selection for whiskey to choose from as well! Willbe visiting again next time we're in Quebec :) Read more
Had the tonkotsu ramen with a few extras. The broth was a bit bland but the chashu pork was amazing. I highly suggest taking... extra! The karaage was very good and warm. They give a good portion. The gyoza were ok, I thought they were unusual since theywere made with chicken and not the traditional pork. However you can choose to have then steamed or fried. We also had Kimchi. Ididn't quite like it since it was sweet and not sour like the traditional kimchi. The best were the sweet fried balls fordessert. They were stuffed with some kind of pastry cream and are freshly fried. Read more
Not the best experience, not the worst. Service was bland and generic. The food reflected the same, inconsistent and tasting and... feeling unauthentic. Read more
Located at a corner of the busy street with lots of restaurants and pubs, it would be a good choice after all the alcohols... ???? The best part about Chika is they give you a good amount of noodles, as to some other places where you only get 3 or 4 bitsof noodles. The Tonkutso is the most flavorful one. The Shiyo and Seafood both have the soy sauce base broth which wasokay. Their pork slices have a little crunch around the edge. Read more
Very yummy tonkatsu noodles, karaage chicken and gyoza. I especially like how the food is not too salty, as many places tend to... get this wrong. It is a hidden gem on the corner of the street. Read more
???????? The restaurant is hidden in the basement but it gives it a cool Japanese underground vibe. ????We came here sunday... night on patriots day and sure enough the restaurant had its first little section very full. The problem that night is thatthere was only 1 waitress for the whole restaurant doing drinks, ordering, serving etc. I think the restaurant should ofanticipated more clients on a holiday and I do not know why they were short staffed but we waited 45 minutes just to get ourdrinks and 1 hour to get our ramen soup which is extremely long. One table left after 40 minutes of waiting whithout thewaitress being able to come and see them to order at least drinks. I honestly feel bad for the waitress who was clearly rushingand could not work any faster than 1 human alone can. Again it was ridiculous for 1 waitress to take on the whole restaurant. Ihope the restaurant realises they need to have 2 waitresses on nights like those and to be better prepared next time. ?*We weredebating wether the restaurant deserved 2 or 3 stars. Depending on the ramen. 2 if the ramen had nothing special, 3 if the ramenwas really good but its hard to give more due to the extreme waiting time for both drinks and food and a couple mistakes duringthe night. ???? ???????? The menu is small and simple and puts emphasis on their home speciality which is their ramen. Then youhave a bunch of little entres you can have like chicken balls, crab balls, edamame, etc ????The drinks were really good! I hadYuzu Classic which was sake with grapefruit and honey tea ???? and my husband had the Japonese Beer and Matcha tea drink. Bothwere unique and very delicious. ???? And finally the RAMEN. We had the Spicy Miso and it did satisfy our hunger and was a goodbig portion that we both barely finished, but only because it was very good. You know that broth that has not only saltiness buta distinct taste that is addicting and satisfying. You want more and you enjoy every bit of it. The t Read more
We are vegetarian and don?t eat garlic, scallions, and onion, they can accommodate our request and at the same time taste so... good!! ???? Metre Street parking available and easy to find. In Quebec, there r not much choices for ramen and this one isdefinitely a place to go. Read more
Not a huge fan of Japanese Ramen but this place ramen was good. We ordered miso, soyu and seafood ramen. All of them were... delicious. Ordering machine didn't print out our order so we had to wait for 40 min to eat. They apologized. Left the entrancedoor opened and we smelled Marijuana from the street. Not a good place to bring your kids at night. Read more
