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.

Expérience absolument horrible. Notre commande à été prise dès notre arrivée. On n'avait pas reçu nos simples pintes même après 30 minutes, malgré deux rappels au bar ('ça s'en vient'). On voit le barman parler à la serveuse en nous pointant, mais après un autre 10 minutes, finalement la serveuse vient nous dire que la commande n'a pas été imprimée & qu'elle doit recommencer. Manque de professionnalisme total.

The bar man & the waitress working today are completely incompetent. Ordered as soon as we arrived. Asked about our drinks twice after 30 mins & were told'they're coming.' After another 15 minutes they finally realised that our order hadn't been put through which was going to make us late for the FEQ concert. Disorganised- avoid.

Le barman & la serveuse qui travaillaient aujourd'hui étaient complètement incompétents. Nous avons commandé dès notre arrivée. Nous avons demandé nos boissons deux fois après 30 minutes & on nous a dit « elles arrivent ». Après 15 minutes supplémentaires, ils ont finalement réalisé que notre commande n'avait pas été enregistrée, ce qui allait nous faire arriver en retard au concert de FEQ.

Désorganisé - à éviter.

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.
