About

Chika Ramen Izakaya focuses on the precise art of Japanese noodle craftsmanship and traditional small plate culture. The kitchen prepares authentic tonkotsu and shoyu ramen broths, utilizing long-simmered ingredients to achieve a deep, complex flavor profile. Diners encounter a wide selection of izakaya-style appetizers, including crispy gyoza, savory yakitori skewers, and fresh market-inspired seasonal offerings. The interior design emphasizes a casual, high-energy atmosphere that prioritizes communal seating and focused interaction with the culinary workspace. Noodle textures remain consistent with traditional standards, offering firm, springy bites that pair effectively with aromatic oils and house-made toppings. The beverage program complements the salty, umami-rich profile of the ramen bowls with a variety of cold Japanese beers and distilled spirits. This establishment serves as a dedicated destination for those seeking traditional Japanese comfort food.

Review Summary

Chika Ramen Izakaya generally receives praise for its cozy atmosphere, generous portions, and flavorful ramen and appetizers like karaage and takoyaki, making it a popular spot for visitors and locals in Quebec City. While many diners enjoy the authentic-style offerings, friendly staff, and fair pricing, experiences can be inconsistent regarding service speed, food freshness, and the complexity of certain broth bases. Some patrons have noted concerns about recent menu changes, minor cleanliness issues, and occasional lapses in attentive service, yet many still recommend it as a solid choice for a satisfying and warm meal.

Was described to me as the place to get ramen in Quebec city, & did not disappoint.

Great atmosphere, quiet atmosphere with smooth jazz playing lightly in the background. Suitable for pleasant conversation with no struggling to hear. Staff were not overbearing & met all expectations.

The Tonkotsu soup was amazing & highly recommended. Also pictured are the vegetarian Tofu Ramen, & Gyoza (dumplings). Unpictured we also tried the Kagaare chicken & Yakitori chicken. All very good.

A very pleasant experience & very reasonably priced as well. Under $20 for a main course is comparable price to fast-food places. So no hesitation saying that this is 5 stars for the price bracket.

Très bon Izakaya, le seul bémol était que l'okonomyaki était trop cuite & un peu sèche, mais à part celà tout le reste était très bon !! & les ramens étaient vraiment délicieux avec des gros morceaux de porc !!

I enjoyed how the ramen had corn. Vegetarian options were clearly marked, but hard to tell which ones were vegan. Was told the kimchi ramen was not vegan, grateful the staff warned us. I think the broth could be more flavorful. Another person in our party loved the broth & thought it was great as is. There were no windows in the restaurant so felt a little stuffy atmosphere wise.

De passage à Québec, logeant 1 nuit dans l'auberge de jeunesse en face : fatigués nous sommes allés à Chika Ramen...drete devant. Purée ! Le ramen sauce blanche WOUAAAAAAHH LA LA LA LA LA LAAAAAAAA !!!! Meilleur Ramen de ma vie (pour l'instant!!!)

Dites-vous, j'ai ramené mon amie québécoise dedans quelques jours après : tellement je devais ab-so-lu-ment en manger une nouvelle fois avant de quitter le sol québécois !

Entrées bien cool aussi ✨🙌🏻🤩🙏🏻🤤

There were so many food items on the menu that it was hard to choose from. The ramen flavor was above average. The quality of the food was not bad, either. The restaurant had three employees, but we had to wait to ask for additional orders, even though there were only four tables with customers.

One of the good point is they are open on Sundays.

Great place to hangout & grab small tapas style portions. Everything was pretty tasty except for the Ramen. They were very nice though in that we wanted to order one to share & they actually prepared them in 2 small individual bowls.

Happy hour draft beer was on with buy 1 get 1 free so we ended up having quite a good time pairing that with a bottle of Soju.

I got the tonkatsu ramen, & I will say it is better than all of the ramen I tried in Japan. If you are coming to Quebec City, this 150% needs to be on your list.
