    Free ramen, full heart. I read online that Afuri Ramen offers a free ramen on your birthday, so I decided to check it out -- and yes, it's true! I went with my ID, and they actually gave me a free bowl of ramen. Totally worth it! The ramen itself was excellent -- beautifully balanced broth, fresh noodles, and clean flavors that hit all the right notes. They only have one vegetarian option, but it's well-executed and satisfying. Service was on the slower side, which I suspect was due to being slightly understaffed that evening, but the team remained friendly and attentive once at the table. The space is impressive -- high ceilings, plenty of seating, an in-house bar, and mellow background music that makes it easy to linger. It's a great spot whether you're solo, on a date, or dining with friends. Overall, a great experience and a solid pick for quality ramen in a lively, comfortable setting -- with an extra bonus if you happen to be celebrating your birthday!

    Ok Afuri ramen's Kara Tsuyu Tsukemen is one of my favourite bowls of ramen in the city. You can also get the spicy version too if you like though I've only tried the non-spicy. I love the refreshing citrus taste and that you can choose to enjoy it cold so perfect for the summer months. It's generally quite easy to score seats here. I love the big floor to ceiling windows and the layout of the seats where you can enjoy dine-in with a group of friends or even dine-solo if you want. The others that had their shio and this other spicy ramen in broth (forgot the exact name), didn't enjoy theirs as much as mine. So definitely recommend the tsukemen here. We also enjoyed the hamachi ceviche. I like the fried soft shell crab but my SO says it taste a little hard to be soft shell maybe just his piece. PS they also have a birthday special where you can get a bowl of ramen for free on the day of your birthday.

    Lovely ramen place with ramen noodles done to perfection and made in store. Soup bases so rich and flavourful. Some interesting creations like yuzu shio Chicken meat very tender, charsiu has a touch of sweetness . The combo portion was on point. Yuzu limonade was refreshing. Combos starting at $30 including an appetizer, a noodle/ rice bowl and a drink. Happy hour from 2-5pm, Mon-Fri only. Service was great, interior design was clean, spacious and beautiful with high ceiling. Highly recommended. Just as good as their Vancouver location Free wifi Free vanilla ice cream with Google review

    Afuri is a great spot to grab some hot ramen and karaage when you have evening cravings. The restaurant is open concept and you can see the chef working away near the bar. They have bar, bench, and regular tables and should be able to accommodate 40+ patrons at a time. The high ceilings and the street view is pretty nice at night and gives a nice ambient feel to the meal. Service was quick, 20 mins ish for ramen and fried chicken and the staff was attentive with our water refills. We got the following: - Yuzu Ratan (pretty strong yuzu flavor and strong broth) - Kara Tsuyu (dry noodle with dipping sauce, nice and light) - Tori Karaage (big pieces of fried chicken with LOTS of sauce) The meal was very filling and enjoyable and the price was great for the quality and quantity of food. Will be back to try their unique non-alcoholic beverage, hard shell tacos, and sushi rolls next time.

    We came to Afuri to celebrate a birthday. On the day of your birthday, you get a free ramen bowl of either yuzu shio and hazelnut tan tan. Wasn't a fan of the nut options in hazelnut tan tan so we ordered the yuzu shio. The broth tasted too clean, missing the richness of bones and light on salt. On the side, we ordered hamachi tartare and spicy tori kaarage. Great options as appetizer. It was busy when we visited so service was scrambling to meet the restaurant's demands.

    Casual dining atmosphere with good service. Tried the Yuzu shio which was salty with an aftertaste of tarte. For my liking, it was too sour and the yuzu overpowered the dish, though I can see how some people would enjoy this flavour profile The tonkatsu chashu men was also okay. I expected the broth to be richer with more umami, but it was quite normal tasting. The noodles were perfectly cooked with the perfect amount of chewiness for thin noodles. 3/5 stars because I expected the flavour of the broths to be more special given their price

    Came for my sister's birthday and had such a lovely time. Our server was friendly and courteous, and let us choose where we'd like to sit. There's plenty of seating inside great for a solo meal or groups of 2-6. They have this great promotion where they give you a free bowl of ramen for your birthday, just show your ID! Here's what we ordered: * Tonkotsu Chashu Men $24.95 (free birthday meal) * Poke Salmon Tacos $13.95 The ramen broth was flavorful and delicious. The taco was perfectly crunchy and the salmon was so tasty and fresh. Highly recommend! The interior is lovely, with high ceiling, concrete walls, and a full service bar. 20250717

    I did a review for Afuri Ramen when they opened but can't find it on Yelp. I loved it so much I went here for my birthday! I was excited to get my free ramen at Afuri Ramen for my birthday! You just show your ID. When I arrived with a friend I was warmly greeted by Tumul who gave us excellent customer service during our delicious lunch! We arrived early at 11:30am and beat the lunch rush. The ambiance was nice and spacious and I loved all the sunlight coming through the big windows. The only choice for my birthday ramen was called Yuzu Shio and everything about it was delicious but it was a chicken broth. I prefer pork broth and maybe I could have asked for it next time. YUZU SHIO shio tare, chicken broth, chi-yu, menma, greens, chashu, egg, nori, yuzu, thin noodle My friend really enjoyed his Hamachi Don which he ate so quickly! It looked colourful too. HAMACHI DON yellowtail, poke sauce, onion, scallion, hazelnut rayu, sesame, sushi ginger, kizami nori, sushi rice We also shared two appetizers which we really loved! Except the Spicy Pork Tacos were way too spicy for me. POKE SALMON TACOS crispy gyoza shell, salmon, scallion, poke sauce, sushi ginger, radish, lime aioli, micro greens, lime SPICY PORK TACOS crispy gyoza shell, toban-jan miso pork, cucumber, onion, spicy miso, lime aioli, radish, chives, sweet soy glaze, lime The good food and great customer service really made my birthday special! Big thanks to Yumul and the chefs!

    Afuri is famous for the yuzu ramen and now they offer 3 courses menu for $29.95. Great deal with great taste. The spicy kaarage is huge for a side.

    Been to this restaurant before. Loved the ramen and the appetizers they offer. The service was good but could be better as when my partner wanted to pay for the bill, no one was there for awhile to assist him. Place was spacious and enjoyed the vibe. But the portion is a bit smaller compared to other ramen spots for the price.

    Friendly staff and a warm atmosphere is what's guaranteed when you visit this place! If you don't know which side or ramen bowl to go with, just ask what they recommend. You won't be disappointed I went in ok Monday at around 3:30pm and I'm shocked there were only a few people there. For this quality and the neighborhood I would expect this place to be packed but I guess my timing was also a bit unusual That being said, folks started to trickle in around 4:30pm. Anyways, loved the spicy Tori Karaage and Edamame. Now about the ramen, I got the yuzu ratan and boy... did the broth hit the spot! As for the pork, it wasn't as flavorful as I would've hoped but it was really good! The cheesecake as you can see from the pictures looked a bit burnt but don't let that fool! That's how a basque cheesecakes are supposed to be and it was so delicious with the yellow yuzu sauce Overall, I can't recommend this place enough

    Yuzu ramen
    Hin T.

    I tried the Tonkotsu ramen and also the Crispy Buta Gyoza. The Gyoza was not bad, it was crispy and had a decent sauce. The Tonkotsu ramen was probably one of the most bland ramens I have had in a restaurant. The noodles were not bad, but the broth had so little flavour. I also tasted the Yuzu ramen. More unique but still not very good. I am hesitant about ramen in Toronto and this is probably one of the worst I have had. I don't know how this place has locations around the world serving this quality of ramen. The service was completely basic, but sufficient. Atmosphere is ok. I would steer clear. So many better ramen places.

    Crispy buta gyoza. Very good.
    Kevin H.

    Overall the food was good. Couple of things we got were mid. The dumplings were the best part though. The young man who waited on us did an amazing job. It's a nice atmosphere. Really laid back. Kind like a Starbucks vibe. They have a bar space also. It's not really big though. I could see this spot being busy during lunch hour. I recommend the crispy buta gyoza.

Either the menu is a mediocre version of the actual menu, and/or the service is dismissive once they learn you're there for the 'licious set. Black + Blue had a $65 dinner menu which is pretty good for the options available. The portions were generous but the service was where things really stood out. We were treated so incredibly well by all the staff. Dawn was our server and she was so lovely! We really felt taken care of. I've never had a restaurant server look at the type of pant I was wearing and change my table napkin to a black one to match my dark pants. Nor do I remember a restaurant heating up the mug a cappuccino comes in to ensure it stays nice and warm. As for food, we were allowed to have some partake in Summerlicious and some not. I had the Summerlicious menu and picked the Wagyu Tartare, Surf and Turf, and Buttercake. Great portions, delicious food. My favourite was the Buttercake. We also had happy hour drinks, oysters, a prime rib, and caesar salad. If I were to recommend something, get the $78 prime rib which is 14 oz, perfectly seasoned, and comes with glazed carrots and the most amazing mashed potatoes I've ever had.

From the vibes to the food, everything was top notch. Tyler took care of our group and made sure that we got an experience rather than just a meal. Upon being seated we got napkins to match our outfits so the white lint didn't get on our black pants , an incredible guava passion fruit cocktail to try and a meat presentation to make sure we all order like pros from here on out. The food was incredible- one our tastebuds won't forget! Our group of 5 started with fresh sushi and sashimi, table side Caesar salad and the softest brioche served with sun-dried tomato butter that was perfect in every way. Main course: Australian wagyu ribeye that we didn't even have to chew plus a strip loin and beef Wellington (which was maybe the only thing I don't need to order again, but still delicious). All the sides were amazing and finally sticky toffee pudding and butter cake to put us in a complete food coma. Wouldn't change a thing about this meal. We cannot thank you enough Tyler (and Toronto!!)!

Located on the 31st floor of the St. Regis Hotel, the restaurant has an incredible atmosphere. The dining room is absolutely stunning with a classy and luxurious feel, but it still feels comfortable and inviting rather than too formal. We started the evening with cocktails before moving into the Summerlicious menu. I ordered the "I Only Drink When I Smoke," which was a great way to start the night. It had a subtle smoky flavour with a touch of sweetness, and the alcohol was not overpowering at all. It was smooth, easy to sip on, and the perfect drink to enjoy while having conversations. For my Summerlicious menu, I started with the Tartare de Boeuf and Caviar. The filet mignon tartare was fresh and really smooth, with a nice balance of rich and savoury flavours. The toasted bread also gave it a nice crunch and paired really well with the tartare. For the main course, I had the Roasted Chateaubriand Filet. When the plate was served, the meat looked really rare as I saw nothing but red on the meat, but it was incredibly tender, making it easy to cut through. It was full of flavour, and the sauce complemented the steak without being too heavy or salty. The vegetables added a nice balance to the dish, and the creamy mashed potatoes were smooth, and definitely one of my favourite parts of the meal. To finish, I had the Mango Passionfruit Cheesecake. It was creamy without feeling too heavy. Though the fruity flavours from the mango passionfruit were a bit tart and sweet for my palate, it still gave an overall refreshing touch. The crust added a nice texture, and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Beyond the food, what really stood out was the service and pacing of the evening. Each course arrived at the right time, allowing us to enjoy every dish without feeling rushed. The price point is definitely on the higher end, so it is not somewhere I would personally visit for a casual dinner on a regular basis. However, for a special occasion, celebration, or a night where you want to enjoy a beautiful dining experience, I think Louix Louis would be a great choice... and for $75/ person for Summerlicious/ Winterlicious, definitely a great value to sample the chefs' artistry. Overall, it was a memorable evening with an elegant atmosphere, thoughtfully prepared dishes, and great service. I can definitely understand why this spot has become such a popular destination, and I would love to come back again for Winterlicious!

    Perched high above the bustle of downtown Toronto, LOUIX LOUIS makes a compelling first impression…read more The dining room is genuinely handsome -- a study in polished Art Deco glamour softened by sweeping city views that lend every table a sense of occasion. On a Valentine's Day brunch visit, the atmosphere alone was enough to justify the reservation. The kitchen demonstrates genuine competence: dishes arrive with care, the pacing is unhurried, and the mise en scène -- from tableside presentation to that now-famous thirteen-layer chocolate cake -- reveals an establishment that understands the theatre of fine dining. That towering slice of chocolate cake, in particular, is a masterstroke of marketing and pastry craft in equal measure; it draws the eye, earns its reputation, and very nearly steals the show. Where LOUIX LOUIS gives one pause is in the cuisine's ability to fully match its surroundings. The cooking is accomplished and reliably pleasant, yet seldom rises to the level of genuine distinction one might hope for at this price point. Dishes satisfy without surprising; technique is evident but inspiration, at moments, feels held in reserve. For the corporate traveller or the visitor seeking a polished, geographically convenient showcase of the city's skyline, this represents an entirely sound choice. For those seeking an experience whose flavours linger as long as the view, the kitchen has room yet to grow into its magnificent stage. Service is attentive and well-intentioned, though it can occasionally want for the depth of knowledge that elevates a good meal into a memorable one. LOUIX LOUIS is, in sum, a very good restaurant striving -- not quite yet arriving -- at greatness. The bones are exceptional; one hopes the culinary vision will, in time, catch up with them.
