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.

We recently visited Kinton Ramen & overall had a really good experience. The food definitely delivered. We ordered the Miso ramen & it was rich, flavorful, & super comforting. The portions were satisfying & everything tasted fresh. Service was also quick & genuinely friendly.

The only downside, surprisingly, was the chair design. They look beautiful & fit the aesthetic of the restaurant, but the backs are very low, so there's nowhere to hang a coat, jacket, or bag. I also didn't notice any hooks or designated space for belongings, which is a bit inconvenient, especially during winter. It feels like style was prioritized over practicality in this small detail.

That said, it didn't ruin the experience. I'd still happily come back for the ramen!

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.

The food here was fantastic. It's rich, flavourful & beautifully presented. I tried pork original & the broth was perfectly balanced. I can't fathom of how savoury & creamy it was, it was very satisfying. Everything was just fresh

What truly made my experience more enjoying was the service. From the moment i walked in, i feel welcomed. They greeted me like i was apart of the family. The employee who served me was Na yeong, she was incredibly kind & attentive. She checked up on me at the right times with genuine attitude, & i truly made my day

I highly recommend this place if you're craving high quality ramen with top service. I'll definitely be back! :)
