About Ramen Misoya Sake Bar

Brunswick regulars turn to this Sydney Road spot for rich, steaming broths and chewy noodles that hit the spot on Melbourne’s wettest afternoons. The Misoya Special pairs deep miso warmth with tender chashu, while the creamy chicken broth ramen keeps noodle devotees coming back every fortnight. Service moves fast, whether you grab a solo table up front or settle into the pet-friendly back courtyard with your pup. Tables start with a curated sake flight—complete with traditional overflow pours and a wooden box where you pick your own ochoko before digging into hot gyoza and house chilli oil.

  • Curated Sake Flights & Cups: Tasting paddles arrive alongside a box of ochoko cups for diners to select their own, poured with traditional overflow hospitality.
  • Custom Dietary Substitutions: Kitchen accommodates noodle swaps for gluten-free rice noodles alongside complimentary pork belly swaps for karaage.
  • Dog-Friendly Backyard: A relaxed outdoor courtyard out back welcomes four-legged companions for casual bowls and drinks.

Reasons to Choose Ramen Misoya Sake Bar

Why diners choose Ramen Misoya Sake Bar for nourishing noodles, authentic hospitality, and relaxed Sydney Road dining.

  • Hearty, Flavour-Packed Ramen Broths

    Bowls like the signature Misoya Special feature richly balanced, slow-simmered chicken and miso bases served with chewy noodles.

    The ramen soup was really great, very flavourful and delicious.

  • Flexible Dietary & Protein Customization

    Guests can customize their bowls with gluten-free rice noodle substitutes, additional vegetables, and complimentary protein swaps.

    They happily subbed the noodles in the ramen for gluten free rice noodles, which were literally the best gf noodles I've ever had.

  • Interactive Sake Rituals & Flights

    Guests can explore curated sake via flights or choose their own ochoko cup from a presentation box alongside traditional overflow pours.

    It was also lovely to be presented with a little box of sake cups for me and friends to choose from before the bottle arrived; a small but thoughtful touch we all remarked on after the meal

  • Traditional Japanese Bar Hospitality

    The venue complements hearty bowls with shareable izakaya plates, including agedashi tofu, gyoza, and katsu curry.

    Appreciated the traditional sake overflow gesture. The ramen is also very nice.

  • Dog-Friendly Courtyard Dining

    A dedicated outdoor back courtyard gives guests a relaxed, welcoming environment to dine alongside their dogs.

    The venue were also kind enough to allow me to bring my dog on my date as we’d booked seating in the courtyard.

  • Equally Welcoming for Solo Diners

    The warm layout and attentive service ensure independent visitors receive prime table seating rather than feeling overlooked.

    It’s a great place to dine alone, they set you up with a single table and don’t prioritise big groups leaving you in the corner

    We had a sake flight. Perfect for me as I couldn't choose which sake to go with. The flight was definitely the right choice.
