Service was incredible, such fun and personable staff. Vibe and ambience was great, loved the warm atmosphere. Broth was the best we’ve had in the city. Only critique would be on the noodles. We had spicy miso - the noodles didn’t uptake the sauce very well, and were a little on the bland side. Every other element of the dish was top class, we just found the noodles a little lacking. Very happy overall!

My friend and I came to Mystic Ramen for the first time this week and I’d say it was one of the BEST experiences I’ve ever had at a restaurant overall. The staff we interacted with was SO kind!! You can tell they all work so well together because we saw 3 different people vs. having 1 designated server and it just flowed so well. We ordered different drinks; both were delicious! The edamame was phenomenal; cooked perfect, and that garlic oil .. *chefs kiss* .. lastly, the ramen itself was 10/10. The atmosphere and outdoor seating was perfect along with the music playing and it was just a great experience. Keep doing what your doing. 5 stars and I will be recommending this place to everyone! Thanks for being such an awesome place.

Food is great, service is great - server was excellent...just a bit over the top to be friendly which is exactly what I experienced last time I was in. The only thing that made my experience less than perfect...was the music being quite loud which might only be an issue as the place was quite empty. Looking forward to going for a fourth time, delicious flavours!

We loved our 1st visit to Mystic Ramen recently and thoroughly loved the service. Both the waiter and bar tender were accommodating and made our experience fun. They gave us time to read through the menu as it was our 1st time and made recommendations that worked for us. We will go again and recommend to our friends and family

Everything about Mystic Ramen is top notch. Most importantly, the food is fantastic. Best ramen I've eaten. Better pitch - my friend who has eaten way more ramen than me, including in Japan, also said it was the best he's ever eaten. It's a great space with enough variety on the menu but not too much to make it overwhelming. Highly recommended!

For our 88th monthaversary, we chose Mystic Ramen and weren’t disappointed. The flavour profile of the ramen dishes was complex and delicious. The gyoza were stellar. Looking forward to our next visit.

What more can I say? Every time I've been to Mystic, the food is top notch, the place is buzzing but not overly so, and the staff are incredible. Whether it's a night out with friends or a business lunch with co-workers, this place is always the right choice.

I thought everything was perfect. My wife felt the yuzu sour was too sweet. She also doesn't drink whiskey so there wasn't alot of options for her in the cotkail department.

Come for the food, stay for the staff. I'm really impressed by the expanded vegan offerings. I've tried all 4 offerings and they're great. The only negative (if you can call it that) is that the dishes only differ slightly between options. The wafu broccoli appetizer is very underwhelming. Booking is easy, and isn't always necessary unless it's fri/sat/sun. Volume level isn't great at times, and can be hard to talk to one another. But it is what it is.

Delicious ramen and certainly affordable, but the owner was oddly passive aggressive to his employees in front of customers and it was very uncomfortable. Hoping I just witnessed a one-off incident and that’s not the environment the servers deal with all the time.

We were seated in a crummy area that we kept being walked past near the back. I think this table should be removed allowing servers to move freely with out bushing past seated diners. <3
