Sansotei Ramen - Ramen Near Me - North York, Ontario

Basic ramen chain with good chewy noodle, good broth, and decent prices. We went right before closing on a rainy night so service was prompt. Very barebones decor but you come for the ramen. Street parking nearby is paid meter since this is Yonge. Only comment about the dishes was that while you get a good variety of toppings, the amount of toppings was minimal (e.g., chashu was very thinly sliced). Still, this place is good enough for return visit. read more

This is my go-to ramen spot in North York. I've been their loyal customer long time ago since they opened their location downtown. I came for their ramen combo promotion. There are two promotion combos, one for 2 people and one for 4 people. The 2 people combo is $40 which includes 2 ramen of 3 choices (tonkatsu, tonkatsu black and spicy tan tan) a side dish of fried chicken, one cheesecake (mango or yuzu flavour) and two teas/pop The 4 people combo is $69 which is a steal, it includes 4 ramen of three choices, 2 gyoza, 1 fried chicken, 2 cheese cake, 4 teas/pop. The promotion ends on Dec 31st, please check with the restaurant before you come. I had the tonkatsu black, with thick noodles, the broth is rich and the portion is generous, I am so full and think I can skip dinner after this. And my favourite side dish from sansotei is gyudon. I didn't order it this time because of the amount of food the combo came with but I always ordered it when I came here. I've tried many gyudon places and somehow this side dish ( not even a main, cause it is small) is my favourite of all. read more

My order: Tomato ramen + Sapporo Pros + Location: Yonge and Finch is a pretty central location where uptown and downtown folk meet a middle ground. Since it is located by the TTC line, it is convenient though you might have to pay for parking. + Their food is generally tasty. I tried the tomato ramen which I wasn't crazy about. I might order something else the next time I visit. + Ambiance: Intimate and quiet. My date and I enjoyed our time catching up together. Be mindful that this location opens at 11:30 am. I googled the hours and must have mistaken their opening hour at 11 am. read more

I had the TONKOTSU+ bowl, which is a combination of smoked pork pastrami, meatballs, chashu, daikon, shiitake, green onion, and truffle oil. This medley created a symphony of flavors that made each bite truly memorable. The rich and savory broth was the star of the show, perfectly complemented by the well-cooked noodles and the variety of toppings. read more

Sansotei Ramen - TONKOTSU+ - Ramen Near Me - North York, Ontario

My husband and I recently tried take out at this place for the first time. We were a bit skeptical at first about whether the ramen noodles would taste as good as in restaurant. Luckily, we live super close to the North York location, so the noodles were piping hot. The soup was packaged separately from the noodles, which prevented them from going soggy. They also gave very generous portions. I would say the taste and portions are about the same as what you would get in restaurant. *** Helpful tip: The North York location sometimes has an Uber Eats Buy one get One free deal. You can get 2 ramens for just $18.99! read more

My first time at this location but have been to the downtown one a few times. Very solid and good choice for ramen in the area. Service was average. We went early for lunch on a Tuesday and it was already a decently busy. We were a little disappointed that the chicken wings were already sold out by then. I had the black garlic oil ramen which was really good and at a reasonable price. read more

Ramen just taste so much better dining in! Maybe it's this location or we're hungry...the lunch here today was amazing! The soup and meats were so flavourful...and perfectly done soft boiled eggs! I got the Miso Black which is a bit spicy with garlic oil...so good! They only had the patio section opened with a few tables so you might need to wait a bit. The staff mentioned that they are hoping to open up inside soon but still trying to hire and train new staffs. It's really nice to see restaurants opened again! read more

Partner and I were in the area and decided last minute to come here for a nice bowl of ramen. Luckily at the time we went, there was no one inside and so we got a table right away. The ramen we both ordered were very strong in flavour, so strong to the point that I coughed a number of times haha (I don't think we can handle strong flavour). Service was minimal and there we did not wait too long for the ramen to come out. It was cold during the time we went and so the ramen did keep us warm. read more

Yes, I always order the Spicy Tan Tan ramen. THIS location always has it in stock can never order it at others. The broth is soooo good. The noodles are chewy. The meat and condiments was also good. I always ask for super spicy I am a spicy kind of person. There karage chicken was also tasty. They have some kind of sesame cheesecake limited edition that piece is also yummy. I have not tried anything else but these 3 are my staple items. Great food and excellent service from their team. Would try and come here often but there is just so many good eats in this zone. read more

Every time I have ramen, I always feel hungry afterwards. This time wasn't different, maybe I just need to lower my expectations for ramen. I tried the Tonkotsu and the Tonkotsu Black. The only difference between the black version is the garlic oil. There was also chashu pork, black fungus, egg and green onion. Maybe a bit too salty. It was decent and fresh, but again not super full. The menu is concise. They know what they're good at and they focus on it. I like that. Service is very quick. They get you in and out. The space is clean but a bit tight. read more

We've been checking out the various ramen places located along Yonge Street between Finch and Sheppard, so it was just a matter of time before we made our way to Sansotei. We showed up around 5:00 on a recent Friday afternoon and the place was almost completely empty. We snagged a nice table near the back of the restaurant, and began perusing the refreshingly pared-down menu. I decided to go with the Spicy Tantan ("Chasu, Ground Pork, Egg, Bamboo Shoot, Chili") and, on our waitress' recommendation, I got it with the thick noodles. It arrived a short time later and it's definitely pretty decent. It's not the best bowl of tantan I've ever had, but it certainly satisfied my craving. The flavor of the soup itself is on point (if a little salty), and the heat level was okay. (I wish there were some options for adding more heat on the table, but oh well.) The chasu was the weakest element in the dish, as it had a somewhat gamey and leftover-y flavor that indicated it'd been sitting around for a well. The noodles and other components were quite good, though. We also got an order of the Gyoza ("Pan Fried Pork Dumplings") and they were fresh and tasty. read more

A Sansotei location in north York? I was really happy to see that as it's close to where I was staying. What's even better was the lack of lines! I used to go to the downtown location when I lived here and the line was always insane. But this place had several empty tables on a Friday dinner around 9. As for ramen quality, it's comparable to the downtown location. I particularly like the black version, as it is really flavorful. The meat portion is on the small side, so I typically get an extra portion to add. read more

My favorite ramen place. Hands down. Black tonkotsu. Don't even have to look at the menu.

A bowl of ramen just really hits the spot on a cold rainy day. Sansotei is my favourite place for ramen. The broth is rich and creamy. Take out ramen is not as good as dine in but I like that they separated the noodles from the broth to prevent sogginess. The egg is always a perfection of soft boiled goodness and pork is grilled to perfect. I will def be back! read more

My girlfriend and I were originally supposed to stop by for chung chun rice dogs, but decided to settle with sansoutei ramen instead. We went around 4:00 on a Saturday, and it was not crowded at all; only one other dine in customer, and some uber eats deliveries here and there. Dining in does require a vaccine passport, but a QR updated vaccine passport is not required. The only con there is to this ramen store is the narrow and hard-to-navigate restrooms. It was uncomfortable for me to go to the washroom because of the lack of space and the dim lighting. Aside from that, I don't see anything else to criticize. Good food, good service, good experience:) read more

We ordered Tonkotsu Black and Spicy Tantan at first, and after we finished them, we decided to order a GyuDon. We wanna give it a try, but it disappoint us because the meat kinda dry, not too tasty, and we hope there's more sauce for the Gyudon. The Black Tonkotsu is so good! I got the thin noodle - it perfectly cooked. It comes with pork belly, egg, and black fungus Spicy Tantan also our favorite! Comes with pork belly, ground pork, bamboo shoot and egg. We are team thin noodle!! Service is superb! I gave 4/5 mainly of the Gyudon. Overall, ramen are flavorful and love the eggs! Follow me on instagram @astravel_eats read more

Ordered a spicy tan tan with thick noodles. Arrived within 10 minutes, but it looked pretty sad. One small piece of half a chashu, a couple pieces of ground pork, a couple slices of bamboo shoots, a handful of noodles, and a whole egg, all for an excellent price of $11.50. The broth was interesting. The noodles had a nice texture and flavor. Egg was pretty nice, soft-boiled and slowly cooking in your hot soup. Chashu was alright, but way too small. And you'd think they could at least offer more than a dozen pieces of ground pork, given that this particular dish is served in "limited quantities" per day perhaps due to the supply of ground pork? But at the end of the day it's a really small bowl of noodles when you think about it. The place gets busy, so you might be waiting awhile. The place is also small, so even when you get a seat, you'll be seated right next to someone else. Can't really say it's a nice date place either. I suppose when it comes to ramen, it's quality vs quantity, but at the same time, there are a dozen other chinese, japanese, or vietnamese noodle shops in the area that will offer for the same price more meat, more noodles (some of them unlimited noodles), larger seating spaces, and/or more variety, and for those are just looking for a place to hang out comfortably and chat over tea for an hour or two while enjoying your food at a nice pace, there are better options. read more

Sansotei Ramen - Ramen Near Me - North York, Ontario

So let me start off by saying although this wasn't my favourite ramen I've ever had, I still think it rates as one of the top because for the first time ever - I finished my bowl. I think it was well portioned ramen (not to heavy, but a good amount to fill you) I ordered the tonkotsu ramen. I'm usually a spicy ramen type of person but the spicy tantan ramen they have has bamboo shoots in it. I wasn't entirely sure how I'd feel about that since I'm not the biggest fan. I think that the tonkotsu ramen has good flavour. The tonkotsu black has even more flavour though, so if you're deciding between the two get the black, unless you're a plain Jane. Service was nice and quick when we went! It was later in the evening though. Will I be back? For sure read more

After or unpleasant experience with Sansotei Mississauga, my bf and I decided to drive all the way to North York to try out their other location. And yessss, whoever said Sansotei is one of the best ramen restaurants in GTA I understand now. From to noodle to the broth, everything is absolutely on point. If you think the location at Square One is small, this location is way smaller. They put all the tables together and form 3 rows only. So basically you will sit next to a stranger. Maybe because of that, I feel it was more cozy and friendly welcoming. Honestly I really don't mind after so many travel experience to Asia and it is one of Asian features to create an unique eating experience. I approved, how's about you? read more

I think this is becoming my favourite Sansotei location, because it's located uptown so it's more likely that I can walk in and be seated immediately. The space is more comfortable too because the store is bigger than the downtown locations. My go to ramen dish is the Tonkatsu Black because the black garlic oil adds really good flavour that complements the soup. Generally I request my soup to be less salted and even then I still find it saltier than I like. There are also other items on the menu such as snacks and desserts, but those I find to be over priced with very small portions, so I would usually just get the ramen. read more

Just a hopeless ramen-tic . SANSOTEI RAMEN Tonkotsu Ramen with thin noodles + eggs, black fungus and green onions ($12.50) . 3/5 . Authentic ramen packed with flavour and delicious broth. The menu is super straightforward - choose from thin or thick noodles, then choose from a selection of ramen broth: shoyu, miso, tonkatsu and tan tan. The tonkatsu ramen pictured came with TWO amazing soft boiled eggs, which is what gives Sansotei an advantage over other ramen stores! I did find the dish too salty though, and would not recommend this location because it's very small. So, if there's ever a line (which there was when I went) you'll feel VERY CRAMPED.

Sansotei Ramen - SANSOTEI RAMEN Tonkotsu Ramen with thin noodles + eggs, black fungus and green onions ($12.50) - Ramen Near Me - North York, Ontario

Walked in and was greeted warmly by all the wait staff. Got there 30 minutes after they opened up and we were able to snag our own table instead of being seated at one of the communal tables. Loved the simplicity of the decor, emphasis was made more on natural colors and textures. Ordered the following: -Spicy Tan Tan sesame flavour ramen (limited quantity made) topped with a piece a chashu, a soft boiled egg, bamboo shoots, ground pork and shredded chilli pepper. Loved the level of spice, the soft egg, and the thin noodles had a nice chew to them; but there was something in the broth that tasted like they dumped a packet of seasoning from a ramen noodle package. - Gyoza - you could tell they were made fresh in house, delicious! A little wait but definitely worth it. - Chicken Karaage (Zangi), Hokkaido style - tasty little morsels of juicy fried chunks of battered chicken. You have a choice between mayo with chilies or chili oil to dip them in. - Sakura Crepe Cake - Sakura flavor was overpowering for such a delicate cake. There's so many different ramen joints out there, I'm sure one of these days I'll find one that suits my taste. read more

This place was great. Staff was friendly and helpful. We advised one of our dinners was allergic to egg and our waitress made sure to inform him not to eat the thin noodle as it contained egg. We ordered fried chicken as an appetizer.... So good!!!! Don't remember the name of the dishes we had but the taste....... AMAZING!!!! I'll go back for sure. Price was decent, about $75 for four of us. read more

We were staying in the building right above Sansotei, so of course we had to stop by to try their ramen! We went for lunch around 14h, with was not too busy. We were four and got a table within a few minutes. We each ordered a different ramen: the Tonkotsu, Miso Black, Shoyu and Spicy Tantan (all thick noodles). Food came within 15 min, and looked delicious! The broth had covered all the toppings, but digging through the bowl revealed all kinds of goodies, including fungi, bamboo shoots, etc. The first bite is the best. The intense flavor from the broth clings nicely to the noodles, which had a great texture. The chashu was nicely caramelized, but I thought the egg could have benefited from being marinated. The broths were all very good, except perhaps the Spicy Tantan, which did not hit the spot as much. It all got a bit salty toward the end, but the meal was short and sweet overall. Good prices, service and nice light next to the large windows! read more

Great location, food, service, and selection! I felt like I was in a more upscale Ramen place lol. Upon entering the seating is limited, not as many options as their counterparts. But it is worth it, I found the prices to be very reasonable, portions were a bit smaller than Kinton. What I admired is that they've got alot more authentic taste, and also a cooler selection of food to try. If your looking for spicy, I didnt find the Tan tan to do much, however their broth was very delicious, it tasted just as if I were in Japan. It is flavorful, but clean, not too heavy. They have an amazing presentation with their ramen, it is always Instagram worthy Haha. We ended up trying the Tan Tan and Black Miso, both with Pork Belly. Tried their version of Karaage, and also had the Spicy Chicken wings. The spicy wings are a favorite of mine, I wish they had described it differently. It is basically a braised Sweet & Spicy soya sauce chicken wing! It falls right off the bone, flavorful from outside in. The portions for their appetizers were very small, so I would definitely go double down on the Wings and Karaage chicken, and make sure you come earlier, in the evening they tend to sell out of these appetizer items. TanTan is the only spicy option they have, I found that it did have a very flavorful broth compares to the Black Miso, which seemed muted in comparison. Again portions are small, but I'd say I am paying for quality on this one. Overall great experience, glad they're opening more locations and I definitely would recommend thus as the Cold weather approaches! Really hits the spot qnd warms you up! read more

i've been a fan of ramen for a while and this place has been here for a few years. I've tried all of their soup base. they have tonkotsu, tonkotsu black, spicy tan tan, tomato, miso black, shoyu. i've tried them all. if you get their most expensive one, the miso black, it also comes with a flower but i think the higher pricing is just to pay for the flower which is just for presentation and doesn't add much value to me. my go to soup base is tonkotsu or tonkotsu black. I specially love the tonkotsu black as i think the black garlic oil adds a zing to it. not really a big fan of the other soup bases. knowing how long it does take to boil and make tonkotsu soup, i appreciate the effort to make it so that's why i always drink the whole soup. it takes an expert to know that the creamy soup that you see took many hours to boil and make. I like their ramen and this is the only ramen shop that I would check out in north york. read more

My recent regular dining partners had plans to go out for dinner but one of them bailed to go out with her daughter and niece so we invited ourselves to tag along. LOL! Unfortunately, we got there a bit late and they had already consumed all their appetizers - Gyoza (dumplings), Zangi (fried chicken), and Seaweed Salad. They said it was good. There was barely any evidence left. Most of us ordered the Tonkotsu Black ramen, a rich pork broth with chashu (pork belly), soft boiled egg, black fungus, green onions, and noodles, topped with a roasted garlic oil. I ordered extra pork belly and took advantage of a special deal that included a bottle of Sapporo beer for only $14.00. Good deal. The other dish was the Miso Black ramen, also served with pork belly, soft boiled egg, shiitake mushrooms, green onions, and noodles, topped with the roasted garlic oil. We were very happy with our choices. The broth was very rich in flavour and, while the portion was just right, I probably could have eaten more. It was that good. Now I know where to go for a good bowl of soup and noodles! read more

Somewhat disappointed that the tomato ramen has changed to shrimp. The scallop was much better so I hope they bring it back. The shrimp was average size but the scallop made the ramen so much more special. The wait was quick for dinner and they did not rush us as we stayed for more than an hour. Service was great and we got a regular table instead of the ones by the wall. Not sure what to order next time as that was my favorite. read more

I liked this place! It was great to come in from the cold wind and enjoy a hot bowl of ramen. We had to wait for quite a bit because the restaurant isn't very big and it's seemingly pretty popular, but we got seated after maybe 5-10 minutes. I ordered the tonkotsu black ramen and it was a nice big serving with a generous helping of chashu, which was great. The onsen egg was also really well cooked, and I loved the other toppings too. The broth was really standout. It was hearty but not too oily, and I loved the garlic flavor. The price was pretty good too so this is definitely a good place to go to get ramen! read more

Went at 5:30 today and just beat the crowd. Parking is a bit of a pain before 6pm since no stopping on Yonge-after looping around we got lucky and found a spot in front. Service is very polite and fast. The ambiance and decor is very trendy and comfortable. The broth is very tasty and the noodles is just right. I loved the egg which is why I ordered an extra one. The pork and scallop is very good and not artificial. Short and simple menu (posted on my pics). One of the better ramen places in the city for sure. What else can I say?l read more

I have to admit that going to a ramen place is rarely one of my top 3 choices of dishes to eat when deciding where to go for a meal. I guess I could trace it back to previous experiences of having ramen that was "just okay" in terms of flavour. After going to Sansotei Ramen last weekend though due to a family member's suggestion, I'm definitely more open to trying different kinds of ramen, particularly at this place! The Miso Black ramen with thick noodles was recommended by our server and a friend. Ingredients listed in the description were tender pork (kakuni), soft boiled egg, mushrooms, green onion and roasted garlic oil. I was a bit skeptical about whether this dish would actually taste as good as I was told and I wondered why it was almost $14. I honestly didn't have high expectations but ordered it anyway. When it arrived, I noticed the cute presentation with a flower in the bowl and that the portion size was larger than I expected. After having my first taste of this dish, I tasted notes of pepper, garlic, spice, and pork - all of which complemented each other so well. It took me by surprise how flavourful and delicious it was! I really couldn't believe the amount of flavour in that dish! My husband had the Spicy Tan Tan ramen which had a spicy sesame flavour to it. It had a soft boiled egg, some ground pork, chili peppers, and bamboo shoots. He enjoyed it but I can't really comment on it as he ate it all up. The gyoza (pork dumplings) were flavourful and fresh tasting as well. It also came in a good portion considering it was labeled on the menu as a side dish. Other thoughts: Servers were polite and efficient with the ordering and delivery process. The food also didn't take too long to come out - about 15 minutes if I remember right. The space is a small one with long communal tables (clean overall) and high chairs. The space between customers is a bit tight but our group was just happy to have gotten seats, especially since it was on a Saturday. We managed to get free parking on a nearby street. I also noticed their note on their tables about free parking for 2 hours at 500 Doris Avenue. Buzz and say you are a customer of Sansotei. All in all, Sansotei Ramen was a great dining experience that was full of delicious food and good service. I'll definitely be back! read more

Sansotei Ramen - Miso Black ramen and Spicy Tan Tan ramen - Ramen Near Me - North York, Ontario

How is the food? I like their ramen a lot, I've tried other ramen shop such as Konjiki and Santouka as well and I think this shop is right up there with them. For their Tonkatsu black, I actually like it the most and I think they probably even taste better than Konjiki and Santouka. (for those of you who dont know, when I refer to Konjiki, I am referring the creamy broth, not the clam broth) so I really recommend the Tonkatsu black ramen from this shop. Get the thick noodle, their noodle texture is great, and the broth is also very nice. Their mango cheesecake is also very nice, they chill it so it tastes extra special! How is the service? the service is good, no complaints Anything to know? we went on a day that they had the $18 combo special, but feel free to go to them any day. because even without the combo, it still costs the same, some cost even less. in fact, if you don't get the cold tea, it will almost always cost less than $18 dollars. just order tontastu black plus mango cheesecake and you are good! Recommend? Yes! read more
