Review Summary

Reviews of Kinton Ramen describe a place that started strong with flavorful bowls and now is seen by some as average and pricier than expected, yet the broad vegetarian options and comforting ramens keep many diners coming back. The broth favorites cited include miso and spicy garlic varieties, with springy noodles and fresh toppings that deliver rich, satisfying flavors and generous portions. Service is consistently praised for being fast and friendly, and the ambiance is described as cozy, clean, and suitable for a quick lunch or a casual dinner with friends or family. Some remarks note inconsistencies between locations and occasional slower service during busy times, along with practical quirks like seating that prioritizes style over function. Taken together, Kinton Ramen is viewed as a solid ramen spot with strong staff and good value in many reviews, especially for those seeking vegetarian options, though a few reviews call for improved value and consistency.

Thick noodle is the normal one in Japan. Nice over all.

I usually don't write google reviews unless there is something to say. Here's my review:

The cooking was nice, it wasn't busy so my food came fast ♡ The gyoza were crispy & well fried with a soft spicy sauce. The noodles I had (Choose the thin) were also nice, it feels nom nom-able in the mouth.
Overall the experience was nice.

However, I felt like a pressure 😂 Nothing much to overthink about it, the waitress kinda scared me, even though she is sweet & calm. I am also a waitress at my work so it is understanble the procedure, etc. It's just I felt like the tone was off, but this is just me. Everything is fine 👍 It was just at the beginning but at the end it was good.

Honestly one of the best meals I have had in a while. Noodles were cooked to perfection & the broth tasted delicious. Our server was also really nice :)

Noodles & fries 🍟combo, absolutely amazing! Loved the spicy pork! A little unhappy with the portion to price ration but I didnt leave hungry. Service is just okay & the interior is pretty bland. With that said, people come in for the food & I dont expect anyone to be disappointed. I certainly didn't!

I recently tried the spicy beef garlic ramen at this spot, & it was absolutely fantastic. The broth had the perfect balance of heat & rich umami flavor. The beef was tender & flavorful, & the noodles had that ideal springy texture that shows they really know what they're doing.
The portion was generous, the service was friendly, & the atmosphere was warm & inviting. If you're a ramen lover or just someone who appreciates a great comfort meal, this place is definitely worth a visit. I'm already planning to come back & try more from their menu!

Tried the Veggie Spicy Garlic Ramen & absolutely loved it. The broth has a deep, rich flavor with just the right kick of spice, & the garlic adds an amazing aroma without being overpowering. The noodles were perfectly chewy, & the toppings were fresh & well balanced. One of the best vegetarian ramen options I've had in the city. Definitely coming back for this.

We went there on a Tuesday afternoon & we were a party of two & a baby. Staff was friendly & attentive. They have variety of broth & also noodles so it's easy to customize your ramen bowl. I highly recommend their original chicken ramen as the broth was flavorful & it hit that sweet spot you want for your ramen bowl.

Small quantity & unharmonious mix of ingredients in the chicken curry: heaping of large cut fries (why would you do that if ppl commonly order the thin noodles?), 1.5 cherry tomato, half an egg, & corn that felt like it was never ending compared to everything else.
The food is usually good, but this was a flop.
