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.
The food here is pretty up to par with most other Kinton Ramens' in the city. The service is pretty bad thought - on my last visit I ordered the fried chicken, & never got it. They still tried to charge me for it when I left though, pretty weird. On other visits the service has been pretty slow, even when the place was pretty empty. Won't be going back to this location unfortunately!
The burnt kogashi is so good, can't get enough of that smokey flavour! I've had it many times last year & I'm so happy they brought it back again for this winter season! Service was excellent as always, staff are very attentive to our needs. The restaurant has a superb wooden decor that gives it a nice & cozy atmosphere. Of all ramen places I've tried so far in Montreal, Kinton ramen is a really strong contender for number 1, I recommend!

L'expérience était très agréable car l'atmosphère était très détente & sympa, ce qui m'a permis de bien apprécier ce moment convivial entre amis ! Je remercie tout particulièrement Paul, notre serveur qui nous a très justement conseillé & qui était très agréable mais aussi très facilement abordable quand nous avions une requête ! Merci également à Gibrane pour son accueil ! Je reviendrai sans hésiter & je recommande à tout le monde de venir visiter & dîner à ce restaurant !

J'ai adoré Kinton Ramen ! Les ramens sont très bons, pleins de saveurs. Le service était super, & Paul a été vraiment gentil & attentionné. Je recommande ce restaurant sans hésiter !
J'ai récemment eu le plaisir de découvrir un excellent restaurant de ramen, & je ne peux que recommander cette adresse ! Dès notre arrivée, l'accueil chaleureux de Gibrane, & notre serveur Paul, a immédiatement créé une atmosphère conviviale. Paul s'est montré extrêmement attentif, avec une touche d'humour qui a ajouté une note agréable à notre repas. Les ramen étaient tout simplement délicieux : le bouillon était riche & savoureux, les nouilles parfaitement cuites & les garnitures, fraîches & généreuses. Chaque bouchée était un régal pour les papilles. Le menu proposait une belle variété, ce qui permet à chacun de trouver son bonheur. Ce qui distingue vraiment cet endroit, en plus de la qualité de la cuisine, c'est le service impeccable. Paul a su nous conseiller avec expertise sur les différents plats & types de nouilles, & sa bienveillance & son professionnalisme ont contribué à rendre l'expérience encore plus agréable. Un grand bravo à Gibrane & à Paul pour leur accueil & leur service. Une adresse à ne pas manquer pour tous les amateurs de ramen !
Nous avons eu la chance de pouvoir manger au kinton ramen de côte des neiges & avons eu l'agréable surprise d'être très bien reçu par Gibrane ainsi que Paul notre serveur du soir. En plus de son humour & de sa gentillesse, Paul a su nous conseiller comme il se doit. Nous avons bien mangé & le rapport qualité/prix était au rendez-vous!!! Je recommande!!!!!!! Merciii Kinton Ramen & surtout merci Paul :))
My boyfriend & I visited Kinton Ramen during a day out in downtown Montreal, & it was a great experience from start to finish. We were welcomed & seated promptly, & the staff was friendly & professional throughout our visit. We chose the "Meal for 2" option, which came with two ramen bowls, two soft drinks, & an appetizer. The fries we picked were amazing-crispy, perfectly salted, & fresh. I ordered the chicken ramen with thin noodles, which was delicious. Everything tasted fresh, & even the mushrooms (which I usually skip) were enjoyable. The broth was flavorful & suited my taste, although some might prefer it a bit saltier. My boyfriend had the beef ramen (with a small supplement as mentioned on the menu) & loved it. The portions were generous, & although I took a picture after we started eating, it doesn't fully capture how well-presented the dishes were. I don't typically comment on restaurant bathrooms, but Kinton Ramen's were spotless & modern, with a nice touch-a mouthwash station for customers. My boyfriend also appreciated the men's facilities. We had a great time & will definitely return. Highly recommend it!
The food was okay I've had better ramens. However the waiter that was assigned to us seemed like he just woke up early in the morning & hates his job. We ordered dinner btw. Terrible service & didn't even check on us. Another waiter that was not assigned to us checked on us & was very friendly with a smile, & even refilled my water!
