There are other popular ramen restaurants in the area, but this one is truly authentic. The owner is Japanese and although there are a lot of traditional dishes on the menu, there are also some unique sauces, oils, etc., used, as well. The broths are fantastic and there's plenty of spice to accommodate the most adventurous palate.
Atmosphere: located on the famous baldwin street, modern, trendyFood: cold noodles special, 3 / 5, the noodles were legit cold. which was unexpectedly different. definitely different approach to ramen.Overall: probably wont be back, ill rather go to kinton down the road.

This was my first time trying ramen in the city, and it was a fabulous first experience. I have yet to try anything that lived up to this place. The food was delicious and filling, and the service impeccable. Will definitely be back, many many times.

Ryus owner is Japanese and it shows. I tried other ramen restaurants in Toronto but some others are NOT Japanese. These other restaurants do not serve the Japanese style. Please try Ryus Miso ramen. That is real Japanese ramen!!! I love it!!!

One of my favourite ramen places. Broth is so flavourful and when they say spicy, it's spicy. Not the watered down Canadian level of spicy. The service is excellent and free refills on pop, I'll take it.

I'm glad Ryus reopened after the fire which completely destroyed the Baldwin location. I've always been a loyal follower because of their unique broth and the non traditional toppings they use. Plus their menu is very vegetarian friendly. Service is efficient and attentive. This new locale is across from the Broadview station with lots of street parking.

Absolutely outstanding Ramen. Pork blaster 'hot' has to be a personal favourite. Very filling and rich broth and the spice was good enough to excite my Indian palate... That's really saying something! Will definitely return although I can't say I'd try much else since I'm sold on this one dish. Patio is highly recommended!

I had the vegetarian bowl! Yummy, just right for me.. I prefer it to Kinton's veg. bowl. I really like the atmosphere! Service was very nice and attentive, was a great meal to have with some out of town friends. Ps....... Bathrooms are really cool. Toilet seats are heated. Crazy.

It's hard to compete with 'Kinton' a few shops down, but with their prices and original / delicious broths, they are in contention. It's a nice place to go for cheap, fast, and feeling Ramen. They let you choose which oil / sauce you want on the side which is neat.
