Konjiki Ramen

I went there and ate vegetarian potato ramen.
It was amazing. Taste is like creamy and if you like spicy one, they have a spicy sauce.
I recommend you guys to eat as it is at first and then put spicy sauce into soup.
And service is great also. I’ll go there again soon.

I had the fried mushroom appetizer and the vegan potato ramen and was disappointed in both dishes unfortunately. The appetizer was very greasy and I could really not taste the mushroom itself. The potato ramen wasn’t bad at all but felt very creamy, thick and heavy with got a bit off-putting. I’m sure the non vegetarian options are better but I’d rather have a simpler good vegan ramen than something overly complex which misses the mark. The service was AMAZING though with very friendly staff.

Previously, there was a restaurant called "Aki-something" that served both donburi and ramen, but now it's the opposite. It has become a restaurant called "Konjiki Ramen," where they also serve rice bowls.

Konjiki Ramen has become famous for receiving a Michelin star, but personally, I enjoy the rice bowls here. Living in beside city of Toronto, it's not often that I get to enjoy such meals dining out. However, one drawback is that the rice isn't particularly delicious.

The restaurant has a second-floor walk up style appearance and doesn't look like a typical shop, so it's important to be careful looking for it.

This is a really great ramen spot in North York. I've had the wagyu ramen twice and I'm a fan. The other ramen options are creamy and super tasty. I recommend the fried mushrooms for appetizer. They're crispy and flavourful, like chips but garnished with green onion and much more decadent. During my most recent visit, the server asked if I would like a half or whole egg in the ramen. I think this is a new option. If you like eggs, go for a few extra whole eggs. They're jammy and we'll marinated. I also recommend going for the super sized ramen so you can have next day leftovers.

I went to Konjiki Ramen recently.

I ordered "Smokey Black"
The noodles had just the right amount of firmness, the flavor was intense, and everything was wonderful.
I think it's the best ramen house in Toronto.
I would definitely come back.
I hope this restaurant will be opened in Korea.

And what a cute cafe next door!
They had a lot of very pretty cakes on display.
Bearpuff was so cute.

This ramen spot is awesome! The food is super tasty—flavorful broths and perfect noodles every time. But what really makes it stand out is the great service. The staff is friendly and on top of things, making your meal even more enjoyable. If you love ramen, this place is a winner!

When word first started circulation that Japan’s prized Michelin star Ramen establishment was opening up in Toronto, I could not wait to try it, and it did not disappoint.

The main star of the show is curated from local produce, bar the noodles, which Mr. Atsushi Yamamoto himself had imported the noodle making machine over from Japan to ensure the same standard of excellence.

Placing both hands on either side of the ramen bowl, the feeling is warming, but just a little too hot to keep holding on comfortably (meaning just the right temperature). Dipping the spoon in to explore, there are 5+ sections of the clamshell broth that are completely diverse in taste. Some consisting of shallots, others the spring onions, some with a more meaty taste of the finely cut chashu, and others of the marinated richness of the broth alone. The noodles are unique, almost square cut (not rounded), cooked Al dente, and have just the right springy texture and surface area to encapsulate the surrounding ingredients with a few slurps.

Konjiki is not to be mistaken for the morish-ness, of some of the neighbouring establishments, where the MSG carry the dish. Konjiki is truly a culinary experience, that will appeal to the more experienced palette without the need for additives. There are a few customer favourite dishes, for those who’d rather stick to either Vegetarian (like kaiso salad), or chicken based (such as Karage).

The location can be packed, but in most cases the turnover runs like clockwork so expect to be seated within 30mins to an hours wait time, unless it’s peak times, in which case make reservations. Absolutely worth a trip specific detour, and trying at least once.
