I hadn’t eaten for 12+ hours and decided to stop off for dinner. I got the miso ramen with pork, it’s been 24 hours now and I’m stiff suffering with extreme food poisoning. I’m in a crazy amount of pain with non stop vomiting and diarrhoea.

We had miso and shoyu ramen plus karaage and pork shumai.  Ramen soup was legitimately tasty and very generous amount excellent quality shiitake mushroom. The three slices of chashu were succulent (the fat melts in your mouth), thick and the most generous we have ever seen.  You don't need to add extra!  Unfortunately, the noodle was over cooked. The karaage was unfortunately hard and dry (note they put lots of white mayo sauce on top - no mention on menu).  Pork shumai was tasty but didn't expect them to come sitting in a sauce (no mention on the menu).

Craving a hot warm bowl of ramen on a cold winter day. Hono Ramen was perfect.

Enjoyed a miso ramen, swapped the pork belly for salmon patties at no cost which was great. The brother was full of umami and just warmed my heart. Egg cooked to perfection. I also added the special appetizer of the day (quail eggs) and loved the cold temperature against my hot ramen. I was so full after this meal, highly recommend.

Such a great experience! Delicious ramen in a wonderful setting. It was a great way to pass a ramen-tic anniversary dinner. The Sapporo slush is a must-have! Merci beaucoup! C’était absolument génial. 🙌 On se reverra bientôt!

I visited with two friends on the 9th of November 2022 in the evening. I had already tried Hono Izakaya previously and adored my experience. This place is like a sister restaurant directly connected to each other. The welcoming was great as well as the service throughout. I learned that you can only reserve online. I recommend doing so to guarantee a spot. The restaurant was mostly full.

The restaurant has a few really unique coktails. I really liked the Yu-Gin (home made ingredients). We shared a karaage together as an entrée. The chicken was crispy and the sauce nice and zesty. For my main dish, I got the miso ramen with extra chashu, egg and spicy sauce. The spicy sauce on the side is perfect to dip food in. The broth was really creamy and had excellent depth to it. Though I felt a light granular feel to it. The eggs are perfectly marinated and the egg yolk deserves a moment of appreciation. The meat in the ramen melted literally in my mouth. Make sure to eat the meat first. I also got a Highball Dewar's, something that Japanese are quite fond of. I preferred the Yu-Gin personally due to its light sweetness.

I also got a Japanese cheese cake that I found lacking in the cheese department, but learned from our server, a kind tall blond haired and beautifully tattooed woman, that this was the way that Japanese made this type of cheese cake. I was happy to try it in the end.

We stayed about 3 hours in the restaurant. I will definitely return to try out the other types of broths. All in all, it was an amazing night with great company and a restaurant that gave off a welcoming, quiet ,and cozy atmosphere.

My second visit went equally marvelously. I brought a great friend that we often make home made ramen meals before watching a good movie. I tried the tonkotsu daily dish and again added two portions of meat, two eggs and spicy sauce on the side. The beefy broth was extra rich and quite enticing. Not as exquisite as the miso broth, but a close second. That's in addition to the Sapporo with ginger ale I barely finished due to sheer quantity (is was really refreshing, bit the "small bock" is enough to quench most thirsts.

My friend particularly loved the edamame. They were warm, their skin more tender than usual and seasoned to perfection. He enjoyed the karaage, but feels that another restaurant on St-Joseph has an edge over Hono Ramen.

The woman that welcomed us at the entrance is the same that served me last time. She recognized within an instant and was just as kind as the first time. Our waitress that had lovely transparent manicured nails honored us with her attention to detail and kindness throughout.

Another five star experience ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I returned with my friend Simon to celebrate the completion of the ink work for his next graphic novel. Emmanuelle served us wonderfully.

Sapporo buck with ginger Yuzu, and Yuzu slush was refreshingly good. Our karaage chicken, ramen, and chocolate treat were exquisite.

Five stars as usual.
