Enjoyed the paitan shio. One of the few ramen places in Toronto which include clam broth.

Kaminari is undeniably one of my fav new spots in Parkdale. The ramen is always delicious and I have always recommended many friends to try it out since it's Opening.
Had an amazing Duck umami soy ramen yesterday in their heated patio for lunch.
Recommend checking it out any time of the year, they rotate their menus during the seasons and sometimes have pop up events like Oden night.
Also there is bartender that is pretty cool, socialable and adorable the last few times we've eaten there in the evenings!
Vegetarian options: They have a vegetarian ramen. In the summer the had yuzu chilled soupless ramen also that was superb ?
Kid-friendliness: I've taken my 7 yr old nephew here that loved it. For toddlers the outdoor patio will provide sufficient space to place a stroller

I was racking my head over choosing which broth I wanted, but then I remembered I could just get both. The clear shoyu broth is bursting with chicken flavours, with a drizzle of chicken oil and an earthy mushroom tare that the perfectly springy ramen noodles soak up nicely to throw a giant umami punch into your mouth. The pork cha shu is sliced super thin for an ultra-tender bite, while the chicken is poached to juicy perfection. To keep your mouth excited, there's a mushroom wonton, marinated bamboo shoots, sliced leeks and a sheet of nori. However, the creamy shio highlights the chicken flavours even more, where the chicken bones are blended into the broth for an even richer taste, elevated with the salt tare and topped with red onions and clams.

Broth & noodles were good but the pork & chicken was questionable, didn’t even finish.

Really lovely place in parkdale, they did a great job with the interior and the back heated patio is so cozy. They provided blankets! We shared the tuna carpaccio - super tasty but expensive. Happy and surprised to see sapporo on tap (8$ for 16oz) AND Sapporo black.
Duck ramen was fantastic- not heavy but super umami. My friend got rhe creamy chicken which i would recommend. The creaminess! The clam taste! Unfortunately both our soups could be hotter. Came a bit warm. But not a deal breaker.
Only notch was service, they forgot about us so i didnt put my drink order in for about 25 minutes. We did have to go inside and nudge them and they were very apologetic.
Would return as the food and ambience is fantastic

I had a reservation at Kaminari for a date night and was looking forward to it, unfortunately after sitting for 17 minutes we did not even receive the menu and weren’t acknowledged. We decided to leave after that, i can’t comment on the food because we didn’t even get a chance to try it.
Food was excellent! This location used to be Grand Electric which was a favourite and I have to say I am not disappointed by what opened up in its stead.

Really delicious ramen! Great balanced umami. Love how they have pork, clams and chicken as an included default topping. Also their house made matcha ice cream is delicious.
Service was a little slow because they only had 2 people running the whole place - would recommend that they staff more people to keep up with demand.
