New to the area & found this great restaurant just around the corner. Absolutely amazing! I am always on the lookout for restaurants serving fresh, tasty ingredients for great priced meals… Crafty Ramen is our new favourite place to go ?! We ordered takeout & choose from the 2 can dine special. 2 Ramen dishes & 2 appetizers were the perfect size for my husband & I. This is the kind of food that soothes the Soul… definitely comfort food for any reason. Absolutely love Crafty Ramen & will be back often! For times that I want Ramen but cannot get myself to the restaurant, I found that Crafty Ramen sells their Ramen in stores. I have been to downtown Longos 3x in the last 2 weeks for: 1) tofu/vegan ramen, 2) pork ramen & 3) chicken ramen. All very different & all very delicious!Ramen at Crafty Ramen is not a noodle soup, it is a wonderful & pleasing meal ?! Check them out, you won’t be disappointed.

Do yourself a favour - hit up another local ramen joint.We might not refer to ourselves as ramen experts, but we’ve had enough ramen to know when one doesn’t meet the mark.Unfortunately Crafty Ramen didn’t meet the mark. Flavour lacking, overly oily and not spicy (where spicy indicated) broth. Thick noodles are nice and chewy, but quantity is lacking in each order. We left feeling hungry and disappointed.Inside the vibe is alright, not traditional, more Toronto style.Would try somewhere else.

Friendly serviceWayyyyyyy too many green onions on everythingThe sides were probably better than the ramen . The kfc and brussel sprouts were sweet heat at their best. The gyoza were fried and fresh but tinyAll of the ramens we’ve had have the same (slightly sour) under taste. The broths also lack body. The noodles have great chew to them. Wish there were more toppings for the price

Very nice place. My Ramen Tokyo Style was good. I really love gyosas, I ordered the veggie option (4 pieces). Did not liked them. But my ramen and the eggs marinated in soy sauce were good… expensive but good. Almost 2 dollars for one egg ?

I really don't like to give bad reviews, but the Ramen is not good, unfortunately. Sort of flavorless, not spicy, etc... The service was fine.

Lives up to its rep. The ramen and appies are extra tasty, and the staff is super friendly. Looking forward to the next time! Appreciate how carefully they prepare take away, no worries in transport.Vegetarian options: Delicious ?Dietary restrictions: Finally ramen with a gluten free option!
Have been to a lot of ramen place in town, but this place keeps something different from them all which I love the most. Ambience, music and a live kitchen keep the guests active and blend with the experience. Thanks

I always passed by here whenever walking down Ossington, so I’m glad to have checked it out.Unlike most places, you can order at the front, and then head to the back. They had pictures of the menu items and as a visual learner- I’m very thankful for that lol.The gyoza was good, they have good meat to skin ratio (rare!), but the filling was maybe a 8/10. A lot of the foods are really strong in flavour- like the meat one. It was sweet but also sour, and not many noodles to balance it.The toppings on the ramen is great- tender, and I LOVE bamboo shoots so I was glad to get so many and it tasted great. There weren’t that many noodles and the brother wasn’t as flavourful as I thought it would be.The service was really nice and patient, and the vibe was good. Because you already paid, you can take your time.Thank you for having me :)

Hands down the worst ramen i have ever had. We were the only customers in the restaurant but the service was poor. I ordered 2 ramen, the both blanched. No taste at all one even have bitterness from burnt garlic taste.Overall it was a really bad experience.The only thing i like was the store decoration.

Fresh hand made ramen noodles with elegance. What would you want from any diner? A fresh calm atmosphere, enough place to sit, good service and affordable prices. They check them all. The have an option for frequent customers who would get free gyozo at 10 ramen orders and free ramen at 20 ramen purchases. I have come here when they initially opened up and i had the spicy chicken tantanmen which is simply delicious. The soup with the ramen tastes exactly like my mom s chicken stew, so it took me back to when i was younger and my mom used to make her chicken every Sunday. Simply delicious. Meat lovers ramen is also good in terms of variety of meat and the presentation, i went for the non spicy so it felt tangy so next time i would prefer spicy. Gyoza is sweet but its good when warm. The icy pop felt like real blueberry crushed up and made it into a ice pop ( i liked it). The place is just a vibe with anime pictures on the wall with the setting that would make you say, ’ Hey, that was crafty’.
