They have at least 3 fully vegan ramen options, which is amazing as most places have one. I had the Spicy Negi - Vegan and it was so filling and flavourful. I added bok choy and green onion for some extra veg. Highly recommend this dish.

Located in the heart of the Ossington strip this is the first Toronto location of a popular Guelph-based ramen bar. It's not a full service restaurant as you need to order and pay for your food at the counter before going to your seat, where the server will bring you your order when it's ready.
I loved the concept of the "Civil Servant", a light and citrusy chicken broth ramen featuring yuzu juice and crunchy lotus roots toppings, but unfortunately I only found this bowl of noodles to be mediocre...while the texture of the ramen noodles were good, the over flavor profile of the dish seemed to be lacking unity and umami.
The interior of the restaurant is nicely decorated to give you the feel of eating at a Japanese food stall, and the warm lighting and quirky collage of Japanese culture on the walls makes the space welcoming. You're also able to purchase their specialty make a home ramen kits here.
Vegetarian options: Th restaurant offers a few vegan ramen options, as well as appetizers
Parking: Paid Green P parking lot 2 mins drive (7 mins walk away). Street parking available.

We were so excited to try this place and the vegan mapo tofu ramen was a major disappointment. It was extremely salty and, unfortunately, inedible.

I loved everything in here; it was just 10/10, especially the staff, who were super understanding, friendly, and amazing. Special thanks to “chriti and nehi”

Foods are good, just not my type. Recommend for those who can not be tolerated to spicy foods. Bao was very sour
The food tasted great. However, this is the second time I have ordered from crafty and the soup leaked out of the container and on to my clothes :'( I think some improvement in packaging would be helpful. No one wants to pay for food just to have it end up being wasted leaking out of containers and all over their clothes.

——Update: stuck to stovetop heat and this was a game changer. The other three bowls I tried were delicious. ——
I’m so sad! I ordered this online and it came in dry ice. After microwaving as directed, the noodles were super chewy and the chicken was completely dry and stringy. I have three more packs to try. Hopefully the next ones are better.

Love this place! Such a cool vibe, feels like you're back in a noodle shop in Japan! The food was amazing and the staff were so friendly and helpful! There were so many great options to choose from and they helped us narrow it down based on our preference. My husband and I shared the korean fried chicken which was amazing and I had the spicy chicken tan tan - can't recommend it enough if you can handle some spice! Finished off with a watermelon/jalapeno popsicle which was unreal!! Will be back ASAP!

Super friendly service and great tasting food! I learnt about this place from Dragons Den and wanted to taste the ramen fresh. The combination of toppings is definitely not traditional (imo) but was still a tasty combo! The other interesting thing, is they make the ramen without pork broth. At first I was disappointed, but I got a 'rich broth' and didn't miss the pork at all. Would definitely recommend

Great portions and spice levels. They have a good selection of ramen flavours to try that are unique, as well as many Japanese beverages available too. The restaurant itself is also well-decorated and enjoyable to spend time in.
