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.
Kinton Ramen is consistently praised for rich, flavorful broth, chewy noodles, and generous toppings, with pork, beef, and spicy garlic ramen among the favorites and a comforting, warming feel that makes it a top pick on cold days. The ramen is described as well balanced and carefully prepared, with tender meat and fresh accompaniments, and the gyoza and karaage often mentioned as excellent add ons, along with desserts like yuzu ice cream. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with a modern, friendly vibe, and the service is repeatedly noted as fast, attentive, and welcoming, making it a reliable spot for casual meals, dates, or group outings. Many reviewers mention good value for money and a consistently high standard in both dine in and takeout experiences, though one account notes a lapse in honoring a dietary restriction and another mentions missing items in a takeout bag. Overall, Kinton Ramen is seen as a top ramen destination with loyal fans for the original beef and spicy garlic pork ramens, a wide range of flavors, and dependable service that keeps patrons returning.
The ramen itself was outstanding. The broth was rich, flavorful, & perfectly balanced - you can really taste the care & quality in every spoonful. The noodles were cooked just right, with that ideal chewy texture, & the toppings were fresh & generous. The pork was tender & melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Every bite felt comforting & satisfying
Went to eat there on a thursday night, very nice casual setting, lively place, service was very nice, friendly & helpful. Not a huge soup fan in general but had a spicy ramen soup, entry & dessert, all were excellent. Very happy with our choice, will return for sure.
