Came here on a whim with high hopes and was not disappointed. From the soul warming ramen to the excellent customer service (chef even hand delivered the entrees) this really is a place worth visiting.
Protip: try the deep fried sushi
We came to the restaurant at 9.30pm just before close. I loved the fact it felt like i was in Tokyo about to have ramen. Was greeted by the most friendliest waitress. Ended up trying:-
- chicken karage
- fried tofu
- Gyoza (must try best I've ever had) literally had to ask my brain to validate the awesomeness of the taste.
- Miso Soup wasn't that fake pre made one which again was awesome.
- The special Chicken & Pork Belly Ramen Ramen. YUMMMMY
All in All finally found our favourite ramen place in Melbourne. Best thing about it was didn't feel thirsty afterwards as it probably wasn't drenched in MSG.
Thank you for your services and yummy food. See you soon.
Beautiful ramen and chicken karage. Delicious noodles, fantastic service. Just bring it home and put it in a bowl and slurp.
Mm, ramen and sake! Really enjoyed my meal here, but my only complaint was that the karaage don portion was a biiiit too small. Service was fantastic though.
I came here with a friend to try the ramen. The soup available are chicken-based broths which I thought was refreshing as I usually only order pork based soups. The special ramen was really flavoursome and the noodles good really well. We also ordered the Japanese pancake and yuzu cheesecake to share. The cheesecake is house made and has a really pleasant yuzu flavour that carries across each bite
Thanks for having us!
We really enjoyed our meal here at Misoya. Their selection is great and the taste is very authentic.
We loved their signature ramen, pork katsu and also their pan friend gyoza.
Definitely a solid place for a good Japanese feast.
The matcha latte with ice cream was also super good!
Tldr: the ramen is so rich in flavour and the croquettes here are so crispy.
A nice restaurant with a long sharing table and separate tables. The friendliest staff and warm ambiance.
The iced matcha latte with icecream was very refreshing. Not too sweet with a smoothie texture.
Veggie croquette has a most perfect pocket with a crisp batter with mashed potato filling that was flavourful with some veggies. The sauce added a light tangy taste.
The misoya special ramen is one of their signature ramens. Strong hearty broth with tender pork belly.
Creamy chicken ramen has a thick flavourful broth which was full of collagen. The eggs were perfectly cooked and ramen noodles were the right texture and taste. The pork belly in both ramens were fatty in a good way and the meat was so tender it broth so easily. We ordered the ramen with additional corn which added a sweetness to the dish.

I LOVED the vegan ramen AND the sake at Misoya Sake bar! The miso ramen broth was amazing - so thick and flavourful. Service was great too!!
We also tried some Dengaku and Agedashi Tofu which was cooked to perfection.
I'd be so keen to come back and try some more of the vegan options :)
Located in the hipster Brunswick, we were pleasantly surprised by the authenticity and quality of Japanese dishes served up by Misoya.
The flavours and execution were spot on, just as you’d expect straight from the motherland itself. With generous portion sizes and exceptional taste, we think we’ve just found a hidden gem!
‘Every body loves Ramen’
Well, It was my fist time eating ramen, and all I could think was “Wow, I’ve been missing out’
The Misoya Special Ramen’s (Egg noodles in a chicken-based miso soup topped with soft boiled egg, spring onion, leek, wakame seaweed and slow-cooked pork belly) broth was thick and flavoursome, and steaming hot, which was perfect for this cold raining night in Melbourne.
For our entree we shared the Tori Karate (Yuzu marinated deep fired chicken). The coating was soft, not to oily, and very tasty.
Hubby and I loved the Soba (Chilled egg noodles tossed with miso-based sauce and salad), the noodles were packed with flavour, and the salad very fresh.
Great portion sizes and very affordable prices, friendly service, and a quiet ‘relaxed atmosphere’ with some cool jazz tunes playing, added to a great night out.
When my hubby and I walked out of Misoya sake bar we said the same thing to each other, “felt like we were in Japan for a moment’. The food transported us right back to Japan for the evening with unpretentious and flavourful food made with care. The ramen definitely gave me the warm fuzzies.
Oshikatta! I'll not mince words, nor keep you over-long dear reader. You'll need the time to phone or seek out a ride to get to Misoya and try things for yourself. How the chef packs this much flavour into a bowl of noodles I do not know. Misoya's special Ramen bowl, a Hokkaido specialty, is like an imposing wave of enduring deliciousness. It swamps you, then leaves your mouth drenched in ongoing flavour spasms as you slowly pick out the notes of chilli, creamy egg yolk and fresh green onion.
Without artifice, the best Ramen experience I've ever had in Australia.
EVER.
Get you some.
