The food at this restaurant is really good The broth was very flavourful, the customer service was 10/10 and the restaurant is very clean and organized inside. I give this place a 3/5 because the portions were insanely small. We ordered two Ramen dishes and the karaage chicken, and paid 65$. The portion of the broth was so small that once I added my noodles most of it got absorbed and barely had any broth. I got three thin slices of chicken and it seems like at over 20$ a bowl the portion was really small. It’s to bad because everything was nicely, ingredients looked and tasted fresh, but with those prices you are left hungry.

This spot has incredible ramen - it’s my absolute favourite in town!
Their broth’s are incredibly rich, but no overpowering. The noodles are chewy with a bit of bite, and the picked ginger really adds to the flavours in the black garlic ramen.

Truly tonkotsu ramen, definitely one of the best I’ve had in Canada. Delicious rich broth, tender noodles, and creamy ajitama. High recommended :))

The food was good and the service neat.
We appreciated that they let us took our time to order and eat. There was no queue so we could just rest and enjoy the food. We ordered a black garlic, spicy tonkotsu and a big mango bingsu that we shared for the dessert.

Very clean restaurant, and they provide filtered water when you are seated (Not chemical taste tap water lol)
Ramen broth is so flavorful with full umami and all toppings were fresh! Noodle is fresh and bouncing and matching well with broth too
Thr staffs were super friendly and service was quick! :)

Came with a baby, placed an order for just 2 ramens and had to wait more than 40 minutes to get our dishes! Other people who came after us were finishing by the time they decided to finally feed us! Very dissapointing and frustrating!!! Don't go there. Food is just average

Great ramen, disappointing business practices. My family and I wanted to eat at Jinsei on August 5, the civic holiday. The night before, we specifically checked if they would be open. They had posted on their Google hours that they would be closed for lunch but open at 5:30 for dinner (see photo). We showed up at 6 only to be told they were closed for a photo shoot!
It's fine if they want to close for the day, but then why not just say so? Why expressly post that they would be open if they weren't planning to be open?
Anyway we went to Ramen Isshin in the Glebe instead, and they were doing great business. Jinsei has good ramen, but what's the point if customers can't be sure if the shop is really open?

Seems to be a bit of a hidden gem - despite the neon sign! We both enjoyed our ramen, and I appreciated that they had a couple of vegetarian options. They also allow customisation of the dish with extras (I can't say no to an egg in ramen). Reasonably priced.
Vegetarian options: Two options: creamy or miso. There's also vegan versions for a dollar more.
