Cash Only! American Dollars okay but you'll likely get change in Canadian.
There was a line, and it went on and on and on... It's a small little hole in the wall, the pace is fast. The food authentic. You order at the door when you're next to be seated. When your order arrives, you eat-pay-then get out of the way. Like most ramen places I've gone to in Los Angeles you're given the choices; here you get to choose what type of flavoring, how strong your soup base is to be and how fatty you want your meat. It was good, but not better than the ramen place I frequented in Gardena, California. If you're ever near that area I totally would recommend a stop over at Hakata Ramen Shinsengumi, but more about that next time.
There is something going on in this West End area called Denman Street, it seems to be a very popular area for little hideaway restaurants. It's worth spending time to explore. It offers everything from Japanese to Ukrainian cuisines and every restaurant looks popular.

Left: I found this amusing, a Japanese restaurant with authentic Japanese everything from the homemade noodle to it's staff, and here in the middle of the counter was a Louisiana hot sauce
Left: My order of Shoyu Ramen, medium soup base and fatty pork.
Left: An order of Miso ramen, with medium soup base and fatty pork 
Left: very good gyozas, one of the best I've had in a Japanese ramen shop. Vinegar included to give it just that extra needed kick, and it's actually a fairly decent size
