How we pick

No Toronto ramen shop appears in the Bib Gourmand or Recommended lists of Tastet's Michelin Guide Toronto 2026 winners article. So this list uses a readers' vote and city guides. Ramen Raijin and Ramen Isshin lead as co-winners of the 2025 Golden Chopsticks vote for Toronto's best ramen. It is a public vote, not a critics' award. The other five are named on at least four of five guides: BlogTO (January 2024), Destination Toronto (January 2026), Taste Toronto (March 2025), Narcity (2023) and Curiocity (2023). They follow by number of guides. Addresses are shown only where sources agree.
