I truly enjoyed my visit at this restaurant. As soon as I entered I was greeted and offered to sit anywhere I wanted. I placed my order and the food came fairly quickly. Everything was cooked fresh and made to order. The Ramen was really good. The dumplings were pretty good also. I've never been a fan of deep fried dumplings but I thought I'd give it a shot and I wasn't disappointed. Annnnnnnd not to mention, the prices were reasonable to me. Definitely coming back when I'm in the area. read more

When I was done shopping at BJ's, I decided I wanted sushi for lunch since I hadn't used chop sticks all week. After checking for a close place, this popped up. It was so easy to get to through the interconnected parking lots. It is in the strip behind IHOP and near Raising Cane's ( but much better food). Plenty of parking. It is a smaller footprint being a store front but have a selection of tables. The menu is smaller than other sushi places but it has most of the popular ones. I ordered my normal Shrimp Tempura Roll. They don't have fountain pop which always gets a star off but has Coke products and was quick with a glass of ice. Service was by the owner so he was friendly and interesting in giving good service. The roll came out freshly made. It was delicious but different than most since it didn't have cucumber or avocado in it. But that let the shrimp and toppings shine. Beautiful presentation. I will be back next time I shop at BJ'S. I would be other times but I don't live near. read more

My boyfriend and I absolutely love this place!! It is definitely a hidden gem! The staff if so helpful and friendly. We are always given great recommendations for something new to try every visit. The ramen is something that will most definitely touch your soul! They poor their hearts into their cooking!! read more

My friend arrived first and grabbed the last available table during a busy lunch rush. I am grateful I did not have to wait since I tend to get hangry. Others following us added their names to the waitlist. The restaurant is small with just a handful of tables. One chef, it appears, prepared all the meals. I barely glanced at the menu; I already knew I was having the ramen. The only question was which one. My friend selected the eel bowl while I had the miso pork soup. The latter was served with sliced pork, bamboo shoots, fish cake, and seaweed. The broth was full of flavor; I enjoyed every slurp. I appreciated that the meal was sizeable and inexpensive - I was able to stretch it to two meals. We did not linger given the number of people waiting. read more

Came here for lunch to check the place out since the old owner retired. A lots has changed, and if you are a fan of the old Matsuchan you need to prepare yourself. I went by myself to check it out before I brought the rest of the family. There were good things, there were bad things. Let's start with the bad. The menu is greatly diminished in regards to the different kinds of ramen you can get. Curry? Gone. Hot n Spicy? Gone. Corn Butter? Gone. Champon? Gone. There are three choices. Unfortunately none of those three are ones my family likes so this will not be an option for them. The serving size is 1/3 of what it was. The number of included items in the ramen is greatly reduced. There is no carrying home leftovers for the next day becuse you will finish your meal. It is also a bit more expensive when you factor in what you are getting for the price you are paying. Now the good. Had the tantanmen which is a delicious spicy ramen. Noodles were springy and the egg was perfect. Service was top noch. Very polite. Ramen came out quickly. Water was refilled quickly and multiple times. AC works. Overall I will probably not be back. My favorite styles of ramen are gone. Quality food and service is nice, but unfortunately if you don't have the items I want to buy, I'll go somewhere else. If you know, you know. I wish them the best and hope they fill a need for ramen in that area. read more

This place is under new management. A lovely family took over not too long ago. Service time wasn't bad, the guest service was 5 Stars, the mom was so sweet! The inside is a bit small, so larger group more than 6 may have a little bit of a wait. But still try. We had a small party of 3. Location isn't the best as there isn't much visibility for the shop, as it is located near the back of the strip-mall-shop. So, we tried a few different things - all of which were good. I will rate them 1 to 10, 10 being the best, 1 being not the best. 1. All of the Ramen dishes were delicious, 9 out of 10 2. The karaage was so good 10 out of 10 3. Does Shumai also tasty, 6 out of 10. 4. The sushi was fresh and delicious, 7 out of 10 5. Spring rolls, very very tasty, came to the table piping hot 8 out of 10. 5. The takoyaki, really good, 8 out of 10 Overall great place, the new management is still working on their place, but you should give these guys a try. I'm going back again. read more

I had been visiting Matsu-Chan a few times a year since 2009 when I was a university student in the Japanese [language] minor program and a lot of my classmates would also frequent. After graduating my girlfriend [now wife] and I would make it a point to try and eat at Matsu-Chan when in the area, even after our first kiddo, and eventually our second. Last year before one of our trips to the area my wife let me know that they were under new management and when I looked at the new menu, I was saddened that all of my favorite items were no longer present, and it seemed that my beloved little slice of Japan was now "just" a ramen shop. While my wife loves and can handle ramen and the broth, I would typically get the different rice bowls, or other entrees because while I love me some good ramen it doesn't work out well for me with the hour or so trip to the area. We'd get some rolls, takoyaki, and other appetizers to share around the table before digging into our main entrees. With the increased prices, and fewer options, I will end up going to any of the multitude of places [Aji-ten is usually our #2] to get my kick. I'll miss the little shop and the times I've had, like perusing the manga while waiting for a table. I wish the old owners the best, and the new management as well, especially if it was a familial transfer, but Matsu-Chan is not for me anymore. My wife will eventually get up there and let me know how it is, but for now, I'm just happy that a little bento shop opened near my workplace run by two first gen transplants, so I can at least get my fix without the drive. read more

We went back and we're so incredibly sad. They changed owners and as of June 10, 2025 the people that used to run this place no longer do it. Although the name is the same, the interior has completely changed the cute kitschy interior is completely wiped out. The menu is completely different. Where they used to have a lot of different Ramen options and noodle options all gone. Now they just have three Ramen all for either 16 or $17 each. The rest of it was sushi. We went on a Saturday night at about 6 o'clock and there was literally nobody else there. The restaurant was empty of other customers and the parking lot was pretty empty too. I was so incredibly disappointed. I honestly did not eat the food and didn't even order. We turned around and walked out. I was just sad that I went to a place that was called the same name and it was nothing alike. We drove 30 minutes to this place and won't come back. I wish them the best, but this shake up was not for us. They were friendly. The place was still bright. And it seemed clean in front. read more

Matsuchan - Tonkatsu - Ramen Near Me - Canton, Michigan

Modest little spot with a simple menu and super yummy ramen. Great for lunch. You will be full!

Some of, if not the best ramen I've ever had. Everything is made from scratch including the noodles and it shows! I'd be surprised if they don't grow rapidly with this kind of quality. It's a small outfit for now with limited drink choices, though many are imports (no alcohol), but worth the visit to just try the ramen! read more

Matsuchan - Entrance. It can be easy to miss because the sign is the same color as next door. - Ramen Near Me - Canton, Michigan

A family favorite. It's a small and cozy restaurant tucked in the heart of Canton. It seats literally like 20 people, so you always want to make sure you're going in between a rush. Everyone is always polite and efficient and the food comes out fast. You can't go wrong with ordering anything there, and it's affordable and so delicious. I've tried every single ramen dish on the menu and you literally cannot go wrong with anything. Although, we believe the owner (chef) is trying to retire and sell so hopefully if someone is buying it, they keep it the same. Otherwise, I encourage everyone to go visit Matsuchan before he officially retires! read more

Matsuchan is as authentic as you can get! It's owned by a very adorable family and the inside can only sear like 12 people. You can't miss the line of people waiting to get in either! I had corresponded with the business on their instagram and asked about vegetarian and vegan options and they sent me an entire list of things I could eat - UNREAL. I got some umeboshi onigiri which had the perfect amount of saltiness and deliciousness! I ordered their creamy vegetarian ramen and added and egg and the portion size was very generous. Be prepared to take a lot home!! 10/10 would recommend and would come back!! read more

Update: came back and tried the Tantanmen. It's spicy but oh wow, this is my new favorite ramen. For those who don't know, Tantanmen is based off of the Sichuan dandan noodles dish. So Tantanmen is flavored with chili oil, sesame paste, and some soy milk I think. I tasted all of that! It's got the slightly nutty sesame flavor and the kick of the chili oil, added with some ground pork. It really amazed me. I think this is my favorite ramen dish now. read more

New ownership for a longtime Canton restaurant in a quiet strip mall on Sheldon Rd off of Ford Rd. Called to place a takeout order. Note: New number is 734-691-5045. Telephone number under former ownership is still listed on Yelp. Ordered over the phone for a california roll and chicken karaage appetizer. Cali roll was delicious, good sized pieces. The cali roll automatically comes with eel sauce on top so ask to not have sauce on it upon ordering if you definitely don't want eel sauce. The chicken karaage was tasty, crispy and seemed pre-marinated prior to frying. The dish comes with a light, sweet dipping sauce with a slight kick. The restaurant has been renovated and is very clean with a few tables for dining in. Upon arrival to pick up my order, the staff was very welcoming and courteous. Menu is limited but it provides the good basics of a simple japanese style meal. Ramen bowls, sushi, appetizers and a couple of poke bowls. Ample parking makes pickup easy when you order takeout. read more

A new owner took over the matsuchan in Canton Township at the Harvard Square. Original owner have retired for good after 30+ years offering affordable ramen, curry, fried rice and all Japanese traditional home cooking. The new owners retained the name matsuchan, renovated the old joint and offered new menu. It was disappointing to note that the menu shrink to only 3 soupy spicy ramen noodles. Most of the menu are sushi and Japanese fusion gyoza (fried) instead of steamed. No fried rice, no udon, no yakisoba, no yakiniku,no cold soba. What is more noticeable is the pricing of the menu compared to previous owner. Good luck my friends and customers! read more

I miss the old owners menu, but the new owners really cleaned the place up. The ramen was pretty good, I like how the interior isn't grimy anymore. Service was good too read more

Came back after several months as store was closed for renovations because owners retired and it changed hands. The good news is the interior looks clean and new....dirty carpet gone with pastel tile everywhere. Hours are 11:00 to 8 everyday with no more funky open/closed times. Bad news is smaller streamlined menu eliminating my wonderful "ramen set" for $11. In its place, was ramen bowl with thin sliced pork in light pork broth. Smelled like pork roast and was delicious! However, no seafood dumplings or fried rice...just pork slices over noodles at $16. Was it good and hearty? Yes. Was it impressive enough to bring me back? Don't think so. read more

We've been back recently and our new favorites are the duck soup ramen, the curry ramen, and the onigiri!!! Still love this place as always.

Super good ramen and very fast. Friendly staff, good for kids. Will come again. Clean inside.

It's been a while since I've been back here because I moved out of the area but I'm glad this place is still there and the food is still great. Went there a little after they opened for lunch and they were already busy and full. Despite having to wait it was only for a short time. I tried the chicken and egg bowl this time and it was good! My mom tried the seafood udon and it was a huge portion. read more

A small mom-and-pop ramen shop. We came there around just before noon and already full of customers as they have very limited seating. if there are no seats , you have to sign your name and phone number on the waiting list and they will call you when it's ready. You can't wait inside of their restaurant. Prices are super reasonable and affordable. Menu is a consist of ramen and other Japanese comfort foods including curry , onigiri and stir fries and such. I tried Tonkotsu ramen , it had a lot of noodles than I expected it made me so full. But to me the soup tasted overpowering with garlic flavor so I think I wanna try regular shoyu ramen next time. Also I ordered gyoza and it tasted fresh with lots of minced veggies which reminded me of gyoza shop at my town in Japan. It was definitely handmade and not a frozen ones that I appreciated a lot. This is a nice spot for an affordable lunch for a family. read more

Very rich broth with plenty of pork added. It was nice to see that they don't skimp out on that. Quick service with a nice waiter. Very good ramen read more

I consider Matsuchan "home cooking" from someone else's home. The food is authentic, unfussy, well made, and served in generous portions. I would highly recommend one of the lunch or dinner specials, whatever they happen to be that day as you get a great deal of food with nice variety. I've been coming to Matsuchan for 30 years and it's just as good now as it was then. read more

Have been a few times over the years. Small family run place with efficient no nonsense service. Just to say if you are the kind that expects being pandered to you aren't getting any. :) The ramen is good and hit the spot in Michigan winters. I usually get the Hot and Spicy but for lunch yesterday got the Champon. Very hearty the ramen was just right, big shrimp however the pork a bit overdone. But all in all very good. As you can see in the pic I added a bit of the togarashi spice. read more

This place is small and homey. The food is very adorable and their lunch specials even more so. I love going here because I know what I'm going to get. It's nothing fancy, with just one chef behind the counter, but it checks all my boxes. Excellent food and service. For such a small place they have such a large menu & many types of ramen. I recommend the curry ramen to all of those around me and all of them who have tried it love it as well. read more

Recently went late June, mind you I always attended the older one under the old management and they had more options and for a good price! The menu its totally new and almost double the price. Miso pork Ramen is no more, also a lot more other dishes are no longer. Staff is amazing, and welcoming. read more

Got take out from here while in the area. I've been wanting to come here for a while as a recommended from my cousin but never in the area! It's a small place! They have specials and combo deals also but you might have to ask them about it over the phone. The hot and spicy ramen has a good kick but not too crazy but I'm not a huge fan of spicy ramen that is kimchi based. I really liked the miso pork ramen! The broth is beautiful. The marinated shoots is very sweet though. I don't think the miso pork ramen comes with an egg but the spicy ramen did! The meat dumplings weren't that great to me. It's cool how you can see the kitchen in the dining space, again, a small place. The beef curry rice was very good also. I would like to try more dishes from here! read more

I looked up Matsu Chan. It means "small pine." The simple aesthetic of peace and quiet this understated restaurant conveys fits that name without effort. Small, nondescript and homey, if feels as if you've been invited to sit and eat the fare of a home kitchen. Without exception, every item we've tried is wonderful. From their shrimp shumai to ramen, eel bowl to gyoza and fried rice to yakisoba, it's served quickly with kindness and is invariably delicious! What a find! The attention the tiny staff pays to every detail of your meal is matched by the quality of service. Don't sleep on this local gem! read more

Friendly and attentive service. The menu is limited and overpriced for the quantity you get. Appetizers don't have descriptions to alert for any possible allergens. Kind of miss the wall of license plates and decorations. read more

Seriously hidden gem! So glad to have found this place tucked away in the corner of a strip mall. We went in for dinner and the place was full, not a big restaurant so expect to wait but it's definitely worth it. Very casual mom and pa style establishment which adds more to the appreciation. The waiter was very helpful as everything on the menu seems to be more authentic than your traditional American ramen that we've become accustomed too. I'm not sure I'll try Ramen from anywhere else anymore. I ordered the miso pork soup, my partner the corn butter soup as well as the rice balls and both were amazing. This place is incredibly delicious for an incredibly fair price! I will definitely be revisiting soon read more

I have been watching a lot of Japanese ramen videos on YouTube lately but never had it. Found out this place was down the road and dropped in. It was great, perfect spice, creamy soup with a good portion. I added extra green onion. The staff was great, apparently new owners and it's been there for a long time but I never knew it. Well worth the try, will be back for sure! read more

I enjoy this restaurant. It is tucked into a corner of a strip mall. The restaurant is very casual. The owner has license plates from all over the world on a wall. The restaurant itself is homey. The soup is incredible. It is a mom-and-pop shop. Give it a try. I promise you will be back. read more

Haven't been here in a while since I moved out of Canton, but they never disappoint. A bit small inside, so you may have to wait for a table if you hit the dinner rush. Absolutely worth the wait though. I highly recommend katsu curry. If I remember correctly it's not listed on the menu, but my friends and I always ordered it. It's just the beef curry dish with a piece fried pork added on top. They have the best miso, and they always deliver amazing and tasty food every time. read more

Authentic, classic, and great. Service is fast. Small place, so there might be a wait if you go at peak times! The ramen was very authentic, and it's what I hoped it to be. Portions are a little on the smaller side, so I would get an app too! There's a ramen special where you can get a small bowl of ramen, fried rice, and shrimp dumplings or something... I definitely recommend that! I didn't do it, but I wish I had. It gives you way more food than ordering separately! read more
