KINTON RAMEN opened its first location in May 2012, debuting as Toronto’s first authentic Japanese ramen bar. With a dedicated focus on ramen, executive chef Aki Urata is uncompromising in his pursuit to serve the best quality noodles and broth. Our experienced ramen chefs prepare each and every topping, using only the freshest and highest quality ingredients. At KINTON RAMEN we invite you to experience our variety of exceptional ramen bowls, right down to the last drop.
Reviews describe Kinton Ramen as consistently delicious with rich broths, perfectly chewy noodles, and generous portions, with highlights including spicy garlic beef ramen, beef donburi, and pork shoyu. Gyoza and karaage appear frequently as well executed, flavorful sides that complement a comforting, well balanced ramen menu. The atmosphere ranges from cozy and calm to lively, and the staff are repeatedly noted as friendly, attentive, and quick, with takeaway and dine-in options described as fast and convenient and prices viewed as good value. While service is generally praised, a few notes mention slower pacing during peak times or busy days, but the overall sentiment emphasizes a reliable, high quality experience that makes it a favored spot for casual meals with friends or family. In sum, Kinton Ramen is seen as a dependable go-to for satisfying, comforting ramen in a welcoming setting.
I've eaten at this location many times & I always get amazing service. They are fast & always smiling. The food is also amazing & very comforting on a cold winter day. I highly recommend (shoyu pork ramen is to die for)
I had a great experience at Kinton Ramen. The broth was rich & full of flavor, & the noodles had the perfect texture. The portions are generous, & everything tasted fresh & well-prepared. The pork was especially tender & well-seasoned.
Service was quick & efficient, & the staff were friendly & attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere is lively but still comfortable, making it a great spot for both a casual meal or going out with friends.
Overall, Kinton Ramen delivers consistent quality & great value. Definitely one of my go-to spots for ramen-I'll be back for sure.

I always have such a great experience at Kinton Ramen! The staff are incredibly friendly & welcoming, which makes every visit even better. The food is consistently amazing, I always order the karaage & the spicy pork garlic ramen, & it never misses. Definitely one of my go-to spots. Highly recommend!
We tried their original pork & original beef ramen. Very nice & wonderful attitude of the staff.
I find it thoughtful that they have toothpicks & mouthwash in the washroom for their customers.

I went on a Saturday evening. It was quiet busy but the guy with the name"Khoda" on his back was able to still provide me an excellent service. The pork miso was very good as well as usual, especially with the back.
First Timer. Was walking by & decided to grab a bowl. No dedicated parking I think. Service was ok, wasn't perfect wasn't bad too. We took the chicken original & I personally had the spicy garlic pork & veg gyoza. The spicy garlic pork was very good. Super flavourful & a little spicy kick to it. Was told the chicken original also was good but the chicken itself didn't taste anything (see pic) I would recommend the spicy garlic pork though 👌
I recently tried the ramen at Kington Ramen Cote des Neiges & it was delicous ! The broth was rich & flavorful, the noodles were perfectly cooked, & the toppings were fresh & delicious. Definitely some of the best ramen I've had! My recommendations :Beef original, Pork Miso & Pork Gyoza
I was so disappointed. My ramen didn't taste like pork. The broth tasted like water & salt. Not only that, my noodles were also undercooked. I really enjoy the other locations downtown & unfortunately this one didn't hit the spot.
