Not my personal preference, but if you enjoy a ramen that’s more jampacked with ingredients, this is a great spot! Lots of vegetables, flavourful broth, thick and chewy noodles. Staffs are so nice and attentive!

I've been to Kinton Ramen multiple times before, and this location was not even close.
I ordered Chicken Miso, but it looked like noodles with corn and an egg - not a Ramen. No Nori was in the plate as well.
Miso soup was not properly streeted or smth and you can clearly see miso puder at the bottom of the plate.
We had 2 servers and both didn't took care of me or my wife, while both of us were clearly not happy with our order.
My wife ordered garlic oil (garlic chili oil) as usual and got brown substance in her broth instead. When asked the servicer - they said they don't have it =/
I wanted to order Original Karaage but was worried if it is pure meat or if it has some fat in it. The server assured me it's like chicken nuggets and there is no fat in it. And of course it was a fatty chicken meat that I couldn't eat.
The bathroom was a mess too: pee everywhere, dirty sink (I did not take pictures cause it was too nasty)🙅🏻♂️
I DO NOT recommend this place ⛔

What an absolutely unpleasant experience! My friend and I went to Kinton Ramen on Thursday after our paddle class since it was on the way. We noticed the servers were very distracted, but we decided not to judge, we’ve both worked in the service industry before, and we understand mistakes can happen when you’re busy.
But what left us completely shocked — something we never did as servers ourselves, nor ever witnessed — was that at 10:30 PM, a waitress came to our table, looked at me and said, “Are you finished?” I said yes, but my friend was still eating. Then she told her, “We’re closing, do you want a container to take it to go?”
With such a rude and awkward question, my friend stopped eating halfway through her dish. We immediately decided to leave. To make things worse, the ramen had absolutely no flavour — it was like eating salty water. She was doing the same thing to other tables too — even to people who had only received their ramen about 10 minutes earlier.
Absolutely unacceptable and unprofessional service.

I have been here a number of times over the years but never tried the original chicken. I was pleasantly surprised on how rich the chicken broth was. Reasonably priced considering the amount of sliced chicken and other toppings which include nori, bamboo shoots, wood ear mushrooms, diced green onions. Choice of thin or thick noodle is always a welcome option.
Only disappointing aspect is that no condiments on the table. I mention this often since it is a norm in Japan to have access to condiments like dried hot pepper, hot sauce, soy sauce, white pepper, and garlic as the most common options. I feel all restaurants here should have at least one of them on the table at all times.
Otherwise, the variety of ramen and other items like gyoza, and cold summer noodles are a great option. Any of the pork or beef ramens are a good choice.
Even vegan options are available. Multiple locations in Toronto. If you are looking for atmosphere, reasonable price, and good selection, Kinton Ramen is a good choice.
For those that know how much work is involved in preparing the soup broth itself will appreciate Kinton Ramens broth.

Ordered on doordash, came with no utensils. Happens every time. Also shrinkflation came here too. Less noodles, less toppings, less broth. Sad times we live in.

You can’t go wrong with Kinton ramen. The service, food, and vibe is consistently good. I like how they serve their drinks in a glass cup with a covered straw. Very classy. Koreatown Kinton please take notes 🙏
Worst experience ever not even acknowledged as soon as I went inside and was told to have a seat but the place where I sat was FREEZING !! Wasn’t even given water at the table while waiting to order.. TERRIBLE SERVICE! I just left because I felt that why would I spend my hard earned money on people that don’t even acknowledge me. NEVER . AGAIN.

One of the few places I would consider asking to make my last meal if I was ever set to be executed. The food was delicious.
Considering the state of the economy, the price:quality ratio of this place is top tier. The service was very quick as well, although I only had the basic pork ramen and a beer, other items may take longer.
If you don't finish the broth you're a coward.

Not bad but they charge you extra to have seasoned eggs in your miso pork I’ve never seen that before every ramen shop I’ve been to just has it in it. The cold chicken ramen isn’t the best.

A really decent ramen and just right sized in my opinion. Lots of interesting ramen choices, while not traditional, nicely done. Noodles were cooked perfectly and the accompanying wood ear mushroom, bamboo and scallions was generous. The perfectly cooked egg was good too and they give you the whole egg sliced in half. I love the decor, warm woods and textures and good lighting. Service with a smile and food comes pretty quickly making this a decent lunch hour option. And reasonably priced.
Best easy fast ramen in Toronto.
