This place left me SPEECHLESS... It was soooo good. We came right when it opened and luckily we did because they were pretty much booked up for the rest of the night. I got some of their tako wasabi with a summer special beer for appetizers and it was the best pairing ever on a hot day. There were so many tasty looking options for dinner but ultimately I went with the creamy mentaiko udon. It was so creamy but very light, left me wanting more and more. The wife got the creamy salmon udon and WOW we were blown away by the salmon. It was prepared with perfection and MELTED in your mouth. The kids got the yaki naku soup udon, the beer was pre marinated beforehand which you can really taste with the soup. The kids fell in love with it and cleaned the entire bowl. This was worth the drive and wait. I'll definitely come back every time I visit Toronto
I finally checked out this spot at 5469 Yonge Street -- noticed it a few times but never tried it till now. We got the "shrimp curry udon" and the "spicy cream udon", and both were packed with flavor. The spicy one was my favorite since I'm all about that heat! It's kind of a cool mix of Japanese and Korean styles with a bit of fusion. The total came to about $41.70 before tips, which felt pretty fair. The food looked nicer than I expected too. Seating wasn't the comfiest this time, but it's definitely a chill place to hang out, chat, and enjoy some beer or wine. Definitely worth a try--let me know if you like it!
Here's a rundown of the food I've tried at Menami: ***** Menami's spicy cream seafood udon is my favourite -- it's so tasty! This is the dish I'd keep wanting to return for. **** The Mentaiko udon was good, creamy and tasty ***^ Potato cream curry udon was good too. ** Baby octopus appetizer was just okay, it's mostly breading. I wouldn't especially want this again. Sometimes it can be a bit too busy to feel totally comfortable, but the restaurant looks good in terms of decor.
We had cheese udon and torched salmon tataki. It was all so good. I have 0 complaints and you can't go wrong here with how delicious it all is.
What can I say. Best izakaya experience ever! I finally had the chance to visit MeNami for their Winterlicious deal and I was very impressed with the overall experience and taste! The service was very friendly as we were greeted with warm kindness from the staff who made me and my friends feel like at home. They provided amazing recommendations of what to order based on the different combinations! The ambiance inside the restaurant is very cozy and cheerful to enjoy a fun night with friends! The food was excellent! From the perfectly seasoned Beef Tataki to the light and fulfilling Corn Kaki-Age that has a nice crunch, nothing can beat their awesome udon! The new Potato Cream Curry Udon has a nice balance of spicy and sweet which is very ideal for the winter season! The Spicy Cream Seafood Udon is also packed with lots of amazing flavour with perfectly cooked seafood! The Shrimp Shrimp Pasta is a nice east meets west dish that has perfectly cooked al dente pasta with the chili oil and shrimp! The Yaki Niku Udon has lots of amazing deep flavour from the broth while ensuring the udon has a nice bite! Overall, MeNami was well worth the years of wait to finally sample the udon and izakaya experience!
Ordered their udon with tempura on the side. Udon was lacklustre and tempura was crispy but nothing special. The portion size for the tempura was too little for the price. No close up pictures but the mentaiko creamy udon was SO much better. It was very creamy, almost like evaporated milk creamy, and the mentaiko wasnt fishy at all. Service was okay. It wasnt very busy when we walked in around 6pm but soon after, the tables started to fill up and the place was packed. Nice ambiance and theres a patio section but dont know if I'll come back to this place.
Came for dinner with a couple friends, I think they've expanded their menu! There were a lot of new appetizers. We got the miso yuzu salmon tartar ($13.45), which is deceptively small compared to the picture of it in the menu. It also didn't taste the greatest, but the corn kaki-age ($7.95) was light and crispy! I think it's a solid choice to get here. The potato cream curry udon ($18.95) looks small but it's actually super filling. The potato cream layer is cold but when mixed with the hot curry udon after, it actually creates the perfect temperature to eat the udon at. It's a really unique dish and Im looking forward to coming back to try it again :)
The drinks were good and light! Food was fine when it came to the appetizers they didn't stand out as much, but I have had there entrees before and they are delicious. The food took longer than expected to come out, as some dishes came out immediately where it seemed like we almost wait 20-25 mins for the next dish to come out.
I came here for Summerlicious for their $35 3 course dinner option. Food was decent, servers don't pay attention to you or take your plates away at an appropriate time. Not all, but a few servers were constantly talking amongst themselves by the bar. Appetizers: corn kakiage and beef tataki - amazing Main: curry udon with shrimp tempura - I loved the shrimp. Udon was pretty good. Curry was okay - I was surprised to see beef in it since it wasn't listed as beef curry on the menu, and the server seemed annoyed when I asked her questions Dessert: blueberry creme brule - amazing, green tea cheesecake - not fresh, a bit hard, couldn't finish it
my second time here. this time i came for the winterlicious menu. food is always amazing and unique here. to start, the salmon tataki was fresh and citrusy. the shrimp was fried to perfection - especially when paired with a shrimp chip! their iconic potato cream udon was sooooo creamy, rich, and delicious as usual. seafood udon was adjustable in spice level, and had lots of seafood toppings. matcha cheesecake and mochi were nothing special but still good. i always love the ambience here. feels warm and homey. reminds me of late night in japan. service was fast despite it being a snow day. amazing!!!!
MENAMI . . The last time I've been to @menamitoronto was probably pre-COVID. I remember loving their potato cream udon which they don't have anymore. I opted to try their new spicy seafood cream udon which was bold of me because I can't eat too spicy. However, I found the spice tolerable and the udon was flavourful. The shrimp and squid were good, but the mussels were so tiny they got lost in the dish. Also, the prices are pretty steep here considering the portion size. Even though the flavour was good, I'm not sure if I'll be back. For that price, there are better alternatives out there where you'll leave feeling more full. . . Spicy Seafood Cream Udon 3.75/5
I'm happy to say that the udon here has improved compared to the last time I visited, although that was a while ago. The flavour of the broth, the texture of the noodles, and the portion sizes are now above average (or, well, my standards for "average" have had to decrease a bit). We all ordered the udon dishes with clear soup bases, and highly enjoyed the savoury but not overpowering taste (no food comas reported after the meal). We came on a busy Friday evening and service was alright - our waitress came to our table just as many times as strictly necessary. It's quite a crowded space here, definitely come prepared to speak loudly to be heard. Regardless, no one rushed us out the door which we appreciated. There are a few new items on their menu which I'm curious about, so I'll probably be back for those! :)
Another one of my go to spots for date night. It can be a bit loud with dim lights but it is a vibe. The staff are pretty quick with their service too which is great! My go to is typically their mentaiko cream udon. I find it to be very flavourful and filling. It can be a bit pricey, but I'd say it's worth a try if you haven't been yet.
This was my first time at Menami. It is located at 5469 Yonge St (near yonge & finch). I'll be honest - this is one of the few restaurants I've been to where every dish I've tried was absolutely delicious and flavourful. No complaints whatsoever. For tapas, we ordered salmon sashimi, beef tataki and corn kakiage (a must try item)! For the main dishes, we ordered the spicy cream seafood udon and tonkatsu. We also ordered cocktails ('drama queen'- a new edition to their menu and 'good morning sunshine.' Service was also excellent. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a cozy izakaya that serves delicious food and drinks. read more

The udon is really delicious!!! We ordered a appetiser with bread and curry sauce but it is super sour. I recommend to go for their udon but not other food. read more
This restaurant close to yonge and finch. Street paid parking available. Came for Winterlious 2026 lunch menu. Very busy on arrival. *Need to RSVP. Customers were being turned away because without RSVP. Had an accessible washroom upstairs main floor and smaller washrooms downstairs. Menu apps A group of us ordered few different things to try apps. Corn fritters, shrimp, salmon and beef tatkki. All very delicious tasting. Lunch app portions all smaller than dinner as written on menu 3 pieces vs 5. Mains- Noodles ordered, cheese udon taste like Italian pasta with udon flavor was excellent. Photo curry udon, unique presentation of piped potatoe topping on top. Was not expecting it to be cold but makes sense otherwise would melt into the hot udon area. Just made the udon warm vs hot on a very cold winter day. Spicy seafood udon rated well and not too spicy, tempura curry udon noted was very hot when it came out. Udon bowls not very large however it is filling. Dessert- Rice mochi with Cold cinnamon hearts drink. Mochi rated as very fresh with a bit of red bean inside. Matcha Cheesecake has nice tea flavor not too sweet. The creme brulee with blueberry was a small portion but tasted fine. 2 Servers were very busy and food came out quickly. They could not do separate bills just 1 bill however they told us upfront so there would be no confusion. Good spot. Would come for winterlicous for the value. read more

I went to MeNami with a few friends for Winterlicious. The first thing that I noticed about MeNami is that the environment is so welcoming, and the staff are incredibly friendly. My favourite appetizer was the Corn Kaki-Age. It was crispy, had some creaminess to it, and the corn was very juicy. It was pretty incredible. I also loved the Torched Salmon Tataki. It had a nice smoky flavour to it, and was also fresh and juicy. The main courses were delicious, and I was pleasantly surprised at how filling they were. I had the Shrimp Shrimp Pasta, and it was delicious. What I liked best about this dish was that the creaminess, the spices, and the cheese all popped out and came well together. I also tried the Potato Cream Curry Udon, and it was also perfectly balanced and absolutely delicious. The prices are great for what they offer, and they have generous portions. I will definitely be back. read more
I've had my eye on this place for years now and finally finally I made the trip over to Canada from the USA to give Menami a go. I was definitely pleased with the pick of dishes my friends and I selected and would indeed be back to try more. I was here for the potato cream udon but disappointed to discover it was paired with a beef udon dish. However the waitress was kind enough to tell me that they could make it with vegetarian curry and make the entire dish vegetarian friendly. I seriously appreciated that the menu was so accessible dietarily! It was such a warm cozy dish, I absolutely loved it. The oven baked cheese udon was the best of the two and reminiscent of Alfredo and carbonara in many ways. The udon itself was soft and had the perfect chew and don't be fooled as I was to think portions weren't that big. Everything was very filling. read more
Move over ramen, make way for udon too! MeNami is one of the popular udon bars in Toronto, bringing here the art of udon-making from Japan. Those fresh bouncy noodles are truly distinct from the usual variety! Seafood Yaki Udon is a tasty udon meal layered with bonito flakes on top of shrimp, squid, mussel then drizzled with mayo, green onions & soy sauce. A creative & delicious rendition. Rice is on menu at MeNami too. Curry Rice with Pork Cutlet is one of the classics emulated here with minced beef, cumin & onions in Japanese curry sauce. They also offer a selection of sake & drinks. It's clear why this is a tasty spot for socials. read more
Chicken Karage - served warm and crunchy. Perfect for sharing with a group. Comes with tartar sauce Curry Udon - very creamy with good curry flavour Spicy Cream Seafood Udon - very yummy with lots of seafood. Not too spicy Nagasaki Udon - very large bowl which I ended up sharing. Not too spicy. Very strong brine-y seafood taste if you are into that Torched Salmon Tataki (not pictured) - salmon served cool but outside is cooked. Good flavour with a clean taste Service was good besides two instances where the waiters were very busy and had to delay helping out table - completely understandable :) Inside of the restaurant was decorated for Halloween and the waiters were in costumes read more

Came here yesterday because they were offering a special for $30. For $30, you got a starter, main and dessert. We got here at around 6:30 and the place was pretty busy. I liked the ambience of the place. It was modern yet still cozy. You scan the QR code for the menu. From the $30 set menu options, I ordered the salmon, tataki, tempura soup udon and the mochi ice cream for dessert. All courses were sent out in a timely manner and all were yummy. The tempura was crispy and the udon had a good chewy texture. Service was good too. Our waitress was polite and efficient. My husband ordered the chicken tempura curry udon and did feel like the portion was a bit small. But overall, this restaurant has a nice ambience, good service and solid food. read more
Came for Asialicious and it was a really great deal. $30 for 3 courses - an app, entree, and dessert. I chose the Taco Wasabi, Fresh Salmon Don, and Mochi Ice Cream. Taco Wasabi - I've had this dish before and this one had way too much Wasabi in my opinion. It was almost uneatable - the sting that would hit your nose hurt really bad and I've never experienced that with other Taco Wasabis. The Fresh Salmon Don was a really good portion and is pretty much like a giant poke bowl - but no complaints. I really enjoyed it and it was super filling. Lastly, they ended up not having enough Mochi Ice Cream (kind of disappointing ) so I tried the Blueberry Creme Brulee which was pretty yummy. The space is really small so best to make a reso for larger groups, but keep in mind they don't provide split bills for groups. read more

After looking through this place's menu for YEARS, I finally found the time to stop by this place at last! Now, I need to start planning on when I will be back haha. Visited on a Sunday afternoon, and less than half the place was occupied. The restaurant is pretty small so I can see why there would be a long wait on weekend nights, but weekend afternoons seem like a good time to dine here. There was only one server, but he did a good enough job tending to everyone. He brought more water for our table every single time we asked (which was many times), checked in on us every so often, and ensured we had all of our dishes. -[RICOTTA FRIES] $9.95 (10/10) Crispy Fries, Ricotta Cheese, Black Olive, Cheese Sauce, Jalapeno, Parsley, Tomato. We asked for no jalapenos because 2/3 of the people at our table can't take spice :') I like spicy food but gotta cater to the crowd, ya know? These were great to start a meal with as the fries were crispy, and the combination of flavors was amazing -[GRILLED IKA] $10.45 (10/10) Butter Garlic Grilled Squid, Balsamic Soy Sauce. The squid was very tender! The balsamic sauce made the squid have a refreshing taste meaning it was delicious. We did find it a tad odd that the squid was such a light color as we had never come across one that looked like this before but would order again -[GRILLED SABA] $13.95 (10/10) Grilled Boneless Mackerel, Daikon, Wasabi. Our dish was missing daikon when it was served but we didn't even notice haha. The saba was so fresh that even if we didn't squeeze lemon juice on it, it still wouldn't have been fishy. Absolutely amazing -[KOROKKE] $6.45 (10/10) Fried Mashed Potato, Herb Mayonnaise. The deep frying on this was perfect! Such a crispy outside, that gave alway to a delicious interior of mashed potatoes. -[POTATO CREAM UDON] $16.95 (7/10) Spicy Curry Udon, Minced Beef, Potato, Whipping Cream. This was an extremely dense dish :'( Good thing we ordered other dishes to offset the creaminess of this one because yeesh haha. The curry being spicy helped to cut some of the creaminess but overall, would likely not order this again -[MENTAIKO CREAM UDON] $16.45 (10/10) Mentaiko, Green Onion, Tomato Oil, Sesame Seeds. One of the best flavor combinations we ate that day! Loved it~ Would order this again -[SEAFOOD YAKI UDON] $17.45 (10/10) Squid, Mussel, Shrimp, Green Onion, Mayonnaise, Sweet Soy Sauce, Katsuobushi. This tasted like an okonomiyaki in udon form aka it was awesome :D My favorite udon dish was this one haha If you like udon, udon('t) want to go another day without trying this place! read more

We went as part of the summerlicious promotion. So it's based off a set menu with your choice of app, main and dessert. I won't go into detail on each dish but my family was very happy with the food, service and decor of this place. The favourite items for today was the crispy shrimp, spicy creme udon and the brulee. For 27$ it's amazing value and everything was very good. I would highly recommend trying them if u haven't experienced Menami yet. read more

I would say 3.5 is more accurate to what I would rate MeNami. Overall, I thought the food was yummy but the quantities were a bit lacking depending on the dishes you ordered. We got the corn karaage and the salmon tartar for appetizers - the tartar was pretty small quantity for what we paid/how big it looks on the menu LOL. The corn karaage was good, okay value but it was a little bit soggy/overcooked but I did enjoy the concept of it. My friend and I ordered the potato cream curry udon - we both liked this dish, and definitely good value in terms of getting full as the potatoes are very rich, however I do wish there were more veggies in it. My partner ordered the fried yaki udon but he found it mid. The overall atmosphere is cute, kinda was giving Asian coffee shop? And the service was alright, I do think our waiter was the only employee so we weren't the most attended to but I didn't mind it overall. read more

I got to try MeNami for winterlicious. It was 35 dollars for an appetizer, main, and dessert. Do keep in mind that winterlicious and summerlicious portions are smaller. For my appetitizer, I got the miso yuzu salmon tartar. It was actually very refreshing! I thought it was a good portion, and the presentation was nice. For my main, I got the tempura udon with the tempura on the side. I got three pieces: 1 shrimp, 1 yam, and 1 sweet potato. The tempura was crispy and paired well with my udon, which had a nice chew to it. I'm not sure if the udon dish is just the regular portion or not, but it is definitely filling. The broth was a bit salty for my liking, but the flavour was good. My partner got the cheese udon, and that was soooo cheesy! It tasted like an udon mac and cheese, delicious but for sure very heavy. For dessert, I got the matcha cheesecake, which was delicious as well. Overall, I feel like 35 dollars for the amount of food is quite worth it. I would love to go back and try their other udons. Also, apologies for the super orange photos. The lighting in there was not the best. read more
Good Japanese bar with a western look inside, not a typical Izakaya looking place. Very casual atmosphere here on Yonge near Finch. They have all the udon you could dream of with some creative takes on this ubiquitous noodle. Beers are flowing at this place and service is great too. Worth checking out on this interesting restaurant area uptown. read more

The highlight of my Canada trip! I have been following them for years! The famous cheese udon, that I've been dream about it and dying to try. But I never got a chance to go to Toronto. This summer, I finally had the change to go to Canada! Went through the hustle of passport renewal and stuff but it's all worth it! Really enjoyed my trip to Canada as well as the dish I've been dreaming of. Their oven baked cheese udon is everything I have dreamt about. Despite being baked, the dish isn't dried up or charred. It's so rich and creamy. Udon is also soft and chewy. It comes with ham and shrimp. Would prefer extra extra cheese on top though. (I'm picky). But love it! We got the miso salmon tartar too. Which was pretty good. Was debating this or the salmon tataki. But went for miso salmon since you don't see salmon tartar often. This will definitely be my go to the next time I'm back in Toronto. Now I've tried my cheese udon, curry udon is next on the list! Untill next time MeNami! Thanks for staying alive though COVID! read more
This Korean restaurant offers excellent value for money, especially with their deep-fried shrimp appetizer, which comes with a generous amount of shrimp and has a great texture. I must praise their seafood udon, as it is packed with ingredients, although it's slightly spicy. As for desserts, they are decent but nothing exceptional. Overall, I highly recommend everyone to give this place a try. 呢間韓國餐廳嘅性價比非常高，特別係前菜嘅炸蝦係有勁多隻蝦，食落去好有層次感。要讚賞佢嘅海鮮烏冬十分足料，不過略嫌有少少辣。甜品嚟講就不過不失，冇乜特別之處。整體嚟講，高度推薦大家嚟試吓呢間。 read more
June 11, 2023 - wow can't believe I haven't been here in so long! This restaurant is always busy, but even so we got a table as soon as we walked in. The staff was very nice and service was fast. We ordered: 1x Gun's & Roses 1x (Pint) Sapporo 1x Ricotta Fries 1x Crispy King Prawn 1x Okonomiyaki 3x Potato Cream Udon I ordered the Gun's & Roses, it was nice to see the server light the thyme on fire, but I'm not sure if it did anything to my drink.. it was settle tasting but the drink was still good. Everything tasted very good! The udon was yummy! I wanted more!! read more
It's decent. More a 3.5 than a 3. Went for dinner here on a Sunday. I wanted to make reservations initially and was informed that if I make reservations even for a table of 4, there is going to be a mandatory 18% gratuity added onto the bill. For a table of 4! So we just tried our luck walking in and was lucky to find a table of 4 no problem. Weird policy since its usually for parties of 6/8 or more so be weary of that. Ordered the seafood yaki udon ($16) and it was pretty solid. I thought for these udon places that the portions would be rather small but it was enough for me. The sauce they use is actually quite nice, a bit sweet and very creamy. There wasn't a ton of actual seafood on it which was a bit disappointing. Good dish but not sure how their more traditional soup style udons taste. It's good overall, weird policy, but foods alright. read more

The vibe of the place is like a Japanese Izakaya . The place is not so loud that you can carry a conversation with your group but other people can't hear what you guys are talking about. The service was good. The server was prompt with the orders and a very nice chap. 9/10 Food: Beef tataki: superb 10/10 Nagasaki udon: 7/10 quite spicy for me but flavour is good Mentaiko udon 9/10 very tasty and creamy read more
I enjoyed my experience dining here. We strolled in here on a Saturday evening, and lucky we could score seats on a walk-in. Note, their QR code on their table defaults to an ad page. To view the menu, remember to skip the ad to go directly to the menu. I ordered the seafood udon, and it was a delight to finish --everything from the sauce to the mixed seafood ingredients paired well with the udon noodles. Next time, I'll order udon with a simpler palate so I could draw comparisons between my experience eating fresh udon noodles in Japan. I like that they let the noodles shine on their own without any heavy sauces and minimal toppings in Japan. My friend ordered the chicken tempura curry udon, she enjoyed her meal though it didn't stand out to her. We also enjoyed the tasty corn kaki-age as a start. read more

Mediocre food and below standard service in a loud izakaya type restaurant. I've been wanting to come here for months prior to try their udon. The food took a very long time to come out even though it was not that busy. The salmon creme udon was not good. The cream sauce was very liquidy/runny and I could not taste any tomato oil flavors. The dish tasted quite bland and unseasoned and the udon noodles itself were nothing special. The tempura in the tempura udon was slightly soggy since it was served in the broth and was quite average. The broth and noodles were average too. The corn kakiage appetizer was fine, exactly what you expect. I really enjoyed their honey mayo sauce. I would recommend skipping the udon dishes if coming here. read more

Date night? Catching up with friends? Not into quiet environments? UDON? This the place for you then. Making their own udon noodles in house for the past couple of years now, I've always come here as a good alternative to some of the Japanese bars down the st for a more intimate setting. Bust out some curry udon, baked udon w cream sauce alongside with a YUZU cocktail. You can't go wrong. High quality ingredients, great mouth feel, attention to detail and the ambience really have you yearning for another few sake shots to get the night going. Charles recommends the seafood udon (love those bonito flakes) and the yuzu cocktail. read more

This place has been poppin for yearssss now and we've only finally given it a try now. It looks like this is mainly an udon-based restaurant with a bar. Honestly the food is just ok. Truly nothing to write home about. Of the dishes we got, the cheesy oven baked one is the best but it is quite heavy. Drinks are alright as well. Definitely a solid dinner/lunch option if you're in the area but might not be worth going out of your way for. read more
