Kinton Ramen at Carrefour Laval is a welcome addition to the North Shore dining scene, delivering the same quality that made me a fan of this chain pre-COVID.
Atmosphere:
The decor truly transports you to Japan. Thoughtfully designed with authentic Japanese elements, the space creates an immersive dining experience that sets the mood perfectly for enjoying a bowl of ramen. It strikes the right balance between modern & traditional, making it both visually appealing & comfortable.
Service:
Staff were friendly & accommodating from the moment we arrived. They provided a high chair for our little one without hesitation, showing the same attention to families as they do to solo diners & couples. Service was efficient & warm throughout our meal.
Food:
This is where Kinton continues to shine. The ramen is consistently excellent, with rich, flavorful broths & perfectly cooked noodles. What I particularly love are their monthly special ramen offerings-creative, seasonal bowls that keep the menu exciting & give regulars a reason to return. The quality has remained high since my pre-COVID visits, which is a testament to their commitment to standards.
Verdict:
For ramen lovers on the North Shore, Kinton at Carrefour Laval is a must-visit. It brings authentic Japanese ramen culture to Laval with excellent food, immersive atmosphere, & friendly service. Whether you are a longtime fan or a first timer, it delivers a satisfying experience.

I have been eating at Kinton shops for about 8 years now & most of the time try to dine in. This was the first time doing take
out at this location. Honestly I was disappointed when I got home & put the broth in the bowl to see that it wasn't enough. I wish they would have put more broth....
This is a pocket friendly restaurant with very good ramen options. The ambience & service is excellent. However, the portions of meat in a bowl of ramen is quite less.
Kinton Ramen used to be my go-to place for great ramen. Nothing specific to say about their food; the karaage is excellent. I'd consider myself a regular customer, visiting at least 2-3 times per month. However, in the past few years, the service has gone downhill. It's now so bad that I waited 45 minutes for a ramen & a rice bowl & ended up walking out. They have around 10 employees in the restaurant, but nobody looks at you or pays attention to customers. People always wait for a glass of water, their food, or their tab. I will give a chance to other restaurants, but I don't think I will go back to the one in Laval again.

First of all, the place was packed on a Monday evening which is an indication in itself. The atmosphere is lovely but subtle. It was literally my first time eating ramen...Took beef bowl with the entree of 4 pork gyoza, came with a soft drink for 26$ . Other people at the table had chicken & spicy & vege variations. We all loved our meal. The star for me was the beef, so tender & seared on the grill, it was perfection.
Need a better service during rush hour, usually it's pretty good until you get to the rush hours. Last time I was there, they placed me right in front of the prep station (not the best place when you are famished to be honest...), it took a little over an hour until I got my bowl & sitting there in front, just seeing bowls after bowls leave, it's not helping... My appetizer took a while to do, then once finished, it took forever for my ramen. All I saw was them stacking bowls & making 3-4 tables at once, also serve them all at once. I'm here wondering, why aren't they just making table by table? I do understand, it does help yes, but me, being alone & right in front of them, I'm starving to death here, couldn't they just make my bowl quick & just give? No, I had to wait another 5 to 10 mins for them to prep the other bowls for the other tables... So If you ever go there, avoid rush hours.
