I love ramen, and friends have been encouraging me to go with them to various places around Calgary. This was a great experience. Fast and friendly service, the server was willing to give advice, and my tonkatsu ramen was great. That pickled red ginger was a bit daring for me since I never like pickled ginger in anything, but it’s standard to the dishes so I tried it and wow, it adds a nice occasional zing that never overpowered the rest of the dish. The egg was cooked perfectly, and the appetisers were delicious. Menyayi is worth trying a few tines for ramen lovers.
This little spot in Kensington reminds me exactly of when I went to Tokyo, Japan. From the bowls you're food is served in to the soft Japanese music playing in the background. Menyati serves a small but simple menu to please anyone who walks in. There main dishes consist of a variety of udon, ramen, and donburi. I ordered the beef udon and my bf ordered the chicken teriyaki don (comes with miso soup), and the serving we're enough for you to finish and feel full. The large windows and natural light gives a more open concept and a calm and relaxing environment to the small restaurant. The staff were very kind and polite, always available to serve us or answer a question we had. The restaurant was also very clean and food was well priced for the portion and quality.
I recommend this place for:
Food, price, atmosphere, and service
I had a chance to visit Menyatai multiple times and honestly I can say say it has one of the best Ramen and service in Calgary. The food was always excellent every time I have been and the service was very friendly yet very efficient. I would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone! It’s a great place for a date night or even a casual night with your friends!
