MeNami - North York, Ontario

Good atmosphere for groups, came here for summerlicious. Tapas (beef tataki, torched salmon) tasted fresh. Tempura soup udon was fine but 1 shrimp tempura and 2 pieces of veggie tempura is a little stingy. Service was nice but not that attentive with it being a less than half-full dining room. Forgot ... to give me a soup spoon with my udon and I had to flag them down to get one. Also, when asked, they said they don’t take AMEX which appears to be false. The AMEX website says they do and they are even participating in the shop small promotion. If not a mistake, then it’s pretty misleading to improperly disclose the accepted payment methods.

This is my favourite udon place in the city! Our favourite things to get are the corn kakiage, the salmon cream udon and the oven baked cheese udon. The flavours are so creamy and perfectly seasoned. I’ve been here many times over the last few years and the flavours have ... always been consistent and the staff has been always very welcoming. The area can get a little more rowdy at night on the weekends so just be careful about that. The texture of the udon noodles is also great, makes me miss my home! Read more

We went as a table of three with a reservation and got a decent table near the patio. Their drinks are great and I would even go just for these and some sides, with friends. They play all sorts of music and while we were there, we heard all the way ... from Japanese rock to Queen and had a blast. Their portions appear to have gotten slightly smaller but I guess they gotta do what they gotta do. The taste of everything was lovely! I just have one negative impression which was of the salmon carbonara which looked like it was directly from a frozen vacuum sealed pack and boiled and placed on top of the dish. I thought that was very unappealing and felt kind of bad that the birthday boy we were taking out had the least visually appetizing entreé. But he still ate it all and seemed to enjoy it so...

Small, cozy restaurant with great food. Nice little bar with seating as well. There was no real wait for getting a table when I went (around 9pm on a Friday night), and the food was delicious. Service was quick and very friendly. Very close to transit (about a 3 minute walk ... from finch station), and has parking lots / street parking nearby. Read more

We just moved into the neighborhood and we wanted to look for a place with a fun atmosphere to get good food and drinks. MeNami exceeded our expectations. The winter drink special was a nice introduction to the Sake and we found that 9oz was a perfect amount. The Udon was amazing! ... We ordered Cheese Udon, Spicy Cream and Vegetable Tempura and they were well seasoned and tasted amazing! This really is a great spot and a place we'll be visiting again! Check it out if you're looking for a nice spot for drinks and food with friends. Read more
