I was wanting to try a ramen joint while I was on the island and I'm happy to say this place didn't disappoint! The atmosphere is very cool my girlfriend and I both loved the aesthetic layout of the restaurant. The service was great and so was the food and drinks. We went during happy hour so we got to try a couple things at a very affordable price. I'll definitely be back when I next visit Victoria!

So I heard a lot of good stuff about this place, and I was excited to try it. First impressions: the interior & atmosphere were nice and the servers are friendly. We went at 9 pm for their happy hour. The drinks were good and cheap. The first dish we got was the tori don. It was basically a small bowl of rice with what felt like boiled chicken on top, all floating in this very bland broth. The broth was barely warm and was so flavourless. It didn’t taste anywhere near a good chicken broth. Then we got their bao bun. It was good, a bit pricey for what you got. Then we got the ramen. The broth was fine, the noodles were lovely, the egg was good, the pork was yummy but kinda had a lot of fat and not enough lean bits. The other toppings were standard. It was not a great bowl of ramen for a ramen shop. Then, we got the yuzu crème brûlée. I am 99% sure it is just the frozen creme brûlée you get from Presidents Choice or similar grocery brand. I think that because I have the exact same glass ramekin at home from Presidents Choice crème brûlée. Not only did it seem totally store bought, but it was over cooked (the custard part was grainy like scrambled eggs) and there was zero yuzu flavour.That being said, the waiter kindly didn’t charge for the dessert because he could tell we didn’t enjoy it. The waiter we had was super friendly, along with the rest of the front of house staff. I would go to Ghost Ramen for their happy hour drinks and their nice atmosphere & staff, and that’s about it.

Walked by and decided to try it. Nice atmosphere. Food was okay. Drink price was inaccurate, charged higher than the menu. When we asked them about it they claimed the menu price was for the happy hour, but we looked at the full menu and that drink is not listed anywhere else in the whole menu. So it's listed in only one place, but in the end they will charge you more than that menu price.

Heartwarming full of flavour broth and delightful hearty ramen.Had the shio tonkotsu ramen and it was delicious. The egg was beautifully runny and flavourful, not too many green onions, the broth was rich and flavourful, the meat was tender and delicious.One of my favorite Ramens I’ve had!Atmosphere is modern and chic. The waiter was helpful and kind. And the green tea genmaicha was very good. A great place to warm up on a blustery day.

The service was great, I ordered vegetarian Ramen which was alright. Maybe not my taste but the portion was huge. The cocktail was really good. My recommendation would be, if you can't eat much and you go during happy hours, order a single person portion from the happy hours menu. It's more than enough to fill you up.

I like Ghost Ramen. One of my guests did not however and thought the noodles are not up par as they should be as per Japans ramen. Their Japanese wife however liked the meal. We both had the ramen with chicken broth and her husband had the beef broth with chicken karage on the side. Apparently the karage was good. Edamame was also a side order and was also good.

It was my first time here and I had a good time! The ambience was nice and the service was good. I ordered the Gekikara Karaage special bowl and I fairly enjoyed it, the spice level was nice. My friend ordered the Birria ramen bowl and it tasted exactly what we ordered, so if you're a fan of the flavour you'll love this!

Atmosphere and menu were super cute! The staff were really friendly, but service was kinda slow. Took a while before some came and took our order and had to wait a bit before food came out.But the food was definitely worth the wait! We ordered the Shio Tonkotsu, Tori, and Shoyu Gyokai! Soup was very flavourful and the sous-vide chasu was amazing. My favourite part was the egg, it was perfectly cooked!! Yolk was nice and soft boiled.

We stopped by for dinner for 2 without a reservation on a Friday around 5pm. There are no steps to get in, so it is accessible for those with mobility aids or a stroller.We were greeted right away and offered a table quite quickly depsite not having a reservation. It was a bit of an early dinner and the restaurant filled up shortly after, so I do suggest making a reservation or coming early.The decor was very chic but I did find the music to be a bit loud for conversation. The table next to ours was a group of 4, so my dinner date and I had a hard time hearing each other over the larger group trying to be heard over the music. During the meal our server made sure we didn't feel smothered but they were present enough for us to not feel abandoned. I did feel there were too many things on the table/that it was too small. We felt crowded or like we would knock something down the entire meal.Our appetizer was tasty with excellent flavour but could have been a hotter temperature; it felt like they lost some crispness from sitting too long before being served. Definitely worth ordering again for the price, but I do hope they'll be warmer next time.We each ordered a different ramen for a main. They come in a large bowl with lovely presentation; a very appealing mix of flavors and textures. There are lots of options for every palette! My only complaint was, again, I wish it had been a hotter temperature when served.Lastly our desserts were very beautifully presented. Both were very delicious and fairly priced for the portion sized. Yuzu Creme Brule had no detectable yuzu flavour but was delicious none the less. Partner said the same for the matcha cheesecake; a good cheesecake but sadly no matcha flavour. The seasonal fruit compote on top was delectable though.Overall a 3 star visit for me; definitely worth a 2nd trip to try some other dishes but I'm still on the fence. It seems so far to be a bit too pricy to make it a regular spot for me. Staff get a full 5 stars for sure though! You were all fantastic.

One of the top Ramen Restaurants in Victoria.The décor is pleasing with single seating available at the bar and the tall table". The table setting is nicely done with traditional Japanese dishes.The Tonkatsu Ramen is exceptional (for Canada). The noodles are cooked appropriately and the broth is rich and tasty. The Chashu (pork) is tender. Ask for the garlic flakes if that is to your taste.The gyoza was slightly disappointing. The wrap was a bit chewy and the contents bland. I suspect that they may have been previously frozen.There is a great selection of Japanese beverages including beer and my favourite
