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 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.
Had a great lunch at Kinton Ramen! They have a very diverse range of appetizers & Ramens. Our server Lexi made a great recommendation of the pork spicy ramen, with an extra seasoned egg & a side of gyoza. The portion was big (especially for the price, I almost couldn't finish it), had great toppings, tasty broth, & I think I could eat a dozen of those eggs alone!
Generous portions, generous flavours, generous staff! Made a special visit with a special person even more special. Recommended for any day of the week.

Yummy! Food was spectacular & done fast. I recommend on taking the Miso au boeuf it had a rich flavour & the meat was nicely cooked. Workers were nice & attentive.

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.
Découverte pour nous des ramens & j'avoue que nous n'avons pas été déçus en choisissant ce restaurant. Les plats sont copieux & savoureux, je recommande ce restaurant 👍👍
