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.

The Awesome: Seated immediately, close to Le Concord hotel, tasty, filling & very fair priced. I would definitely go back. The not so awesome: If it matters to you, there did not seem to be any Japanese workers in the front or back of house. Karage was good & plentiful, but lacked skin. The butabara was huge (great value, but not really bite sized pieces). Rice is a complement to all the other dishes served in an Izakaya. It should, therefore, be brought out with the first round of dishes. On two occassions, I had to get up to request service from our server, who was busy playing with her phone. That should never happen! &, that was the only reason I felt a star should be deducted.

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.
