Arashi Ramen - Canmore

We came for an early dinner around 5:30 PM. The wait was ~30 minutes for a party of six. You put your name and phone down on a list and they contact you when your table is ready. The inside is pretty small. There is a waiting area where they have Asian snacks but can sit only about 2 people comfortably. There 's about six tables with chairs and booths on one side of the restaurant and the other half of the restaurant is just countertop with 5-6 chairs facing the wall. The food was OK but could have been better. The ramen was overall a 3.5/5 for everyone 's. It didn 't have a whole lot of broth or toppings/garnish. It felt pretty basic and the portion sizes are small considering the price you pay. The appetizers we ordered were alright, but nothing too special. The chicken karaage just tasted like deep fried frozen popcorn chicken. The star of the night was the ume sake. It was really good and we ended up ordering two glasses and even asked what kind of sake it was so we could buy it ourselves. Service was eh. With how little people are able to sit down inside we expected them to check up on us more frequently. Overall 3.5/5. Wasn 't the greatest but also wasn 't the worst.

My cousin and I were exploring Canmore after hiking in Banff and decided we wanted something hot to eat to help warm us up. We saw that this place was within walkable distance and decided to head here. There is a small parking lot available as well as paid street parking for those who were wondering. Walking in, the establishment was cozy with maybe 4 tables and a bar with maybe 5 seats, but we were seated surprisingly fast for how busy it seemed. I decided to try the arashi since I feel like this restaurant wouldn't name their business after a meal if it wasn't good, and my cousin decided on the tonkotsu. It didn't take long for our dishes to be brought over, and man were they good! Hot and fresh packed with flavor which is definitely what we were looking for. It was filing enough to satisfy us until dinner but didn't give us that groggy feeling people typically get after carb-loading, which was so nice since we really wanted to shop around. Service was also nice and efficient; no problems for us, so definitely give this place a try if you're in town!

Cute little ramen shop in Canmore! Service was fast , efficient and polite. I had the Devils Arashi Ramen but added an egg and nori on the side. The noodles were ultra chewy and the broth spicy and flavourful. Got level 3 spicy and it was just perfect

I think this place will go down in history as one of the best ramen I've had in a while. I got the spicy tonkostu ramen with rice noodles and the broth was sooooo flavorful and the meat was sooo tender. It's a small casual spot with limited seating. The service is kind, friendly and exceptionally nice. If I'd lived closer I'd make eating here a weekly affair.

Very yummy ramen for a great price. The restaurant itself is very small few tables on one side, and a counter with stools on the other side. But people were moving quickly in and out so there wasn't that big of a wait. Our server was very nice as well. The ramen was great lots of toppings which I enjoyed. I do wish you got two halves of an egg instead of just one. My boyfriend had the miso ramen he said it was good but just a little too salty for him. This place is great bang for your buck, and a good place to warm up on a cold day.
