“Went here a few weeks after a trip to Tokyo, missing great food.
Was initially skeptical about the carbs on carbs action but my favorite part was eating the rice with the chili bean paste, garlic paste, and the ramen's broth. What a unique experience!“

“Here to write about Nana, the service manager, always come to this location and Nana’s professionalism and dedication to her job is just commendable. She is the definition of grace under pressure, always smiling, going the extra mile and all of that while servicing multiple tables single handedly.
Food here has always been consistent, enjoyed the tsukemen and will miss it in the winter. The karaage is always done right.
My fave Kinton location thus far.“

“We had such a wonderful meal at Oji Seichi, and honestly, everything about the experience was top notch. From the moment you walk in, you can tell how thoughtfully the entire place has been curated. The space is beautifully aesthetic, with a distinctly Japanese feel, and even the little details throughout the restaurant make it feel like so much more than just a place to grab a meal.
They also have an amazing selection of restaurant merchandise and gift bags, along with frozen items you can take home and make yourself, including gyoza and noodles. There are also bottles of chili oil and different sauces, which made it very tempting to stock up before leaving!
The staff were incredible—so friendly, attentive and genuinely excited to chat with us about the menu. They walked us through their process, shared recommendations and explained some of their speciality items, which made the whole experience feel really personal.
We started with the chicken katsu sandwich, which was absolutely delightful. The dankatsu sauce was tangy and salty, the cabbage was shredded super thin, and the pickled daikon added the perfect crunchy, slightly acidic bite. The steamed bun was fluffy and soft and brought everything together perfectly. We added fries to the sandwich, which came with their nori ranch—a really fun twist on a traditional ranch. It had so much flavour, and you can tell their sauces are made in-house.
The standout for me, though, was the spicy sesame ramen. It started as a seasonal special but was so popular that they ended up putting it on the permanent menu—and for very good reason. The broth was incredibly rich and flavourful with the perfect amount of spice. It had a real kick, but it wasn’t so spicy that you couldn’t actually enjoy the flavours. The noodles were chewy, fresh and had exactly the right texture. The pork belly practically fell apart and had this beautiful grilled flavour, while the egg was perfectly jammy in the middle—exactly what you want in a bowl of ramen.
You can tell that every component here has been carefully considered, from the food and sauces to the atmosphere and the service. Nothing feels like an afterthought, and that attention to detail really comes through.
They even have a loyalty program where your 11th ramen is free, which is dangerous because I will absolutely be taking advantage of that!
I’ll definitely be going back again and again—not just for the delicious food, but also because the staff were so warm and fun to chat with. Oji Seichi is one of those places where you leave already thinking about what you’re going to order next time. Absolutely loved it!“

“I was near the University of Toronto for an errand and was really hungry when I came across this place. Once I stepped inside, I felt like I was back in Korea. The Korean music and convenience store atmosphere brought back memories of eating ramyeon at convenience stores when I was a student. It felt so familiar and comforting.
The noodles do cost more than at a grocery store, but I really enjoyed sitting down to a hot bowl of ramyeon and choosing toppings to add. It felt like being at a Korean friend’s home, making noodles with a little of everything we liked.
I would love to see kimbap or triangle kimbap on the menu, too! That would bring back even more memories for me.
This place felt like a little piece of Korea in Toronto. If you have the chance, stop by and try it. I had such a lovely time.“

“Kenzo Ramen Spadina is a cozy ramen spot that focuses on comforting Japanese-style bowls in a casual setting. The space is on the smaller side, which gives it a more intimate neighborhood feel rather than a large restaurant atmosphere. It is the type of place that works especially well when you are looking for something warm and satisfying, especially on a colder day when a bowl of ramen feels like the right choice.
The ramen is the main highlight, and the bowls come out flavorful with rich broths and generous portions. The Tonkotsu King stood out for its deeper, savory broth and overall balance with the noodles. The ramen has that comforting quality where the flavors feel familiar but still have enough character to make the meal memorable. There are also plenty of options depending on what you are craving, from richer tonkotsu styles to spicier bowls like the Orochong ramen. The vegetarian options also feel like they are given real attention rather than being an afterthought.
Beyond ramen, the menu has a good variety of Japanese comfort food. The katsu curry is another standout, with a flavorful curry sauce paired well with the crispy katsu. The miso soup and side salad that come alongside add a nice balance to the meal. They also have a bubble tea corner, which is a fun addition and makes it easy to order a drink with your meal without having to go elsewhere.
Service was one of the stronger parts of the experience. The staff were friendly, attentive, and kept things moving even when the restaurant was busy. Orders came out quickly, and the overall pacing felt efficient without feeling rushed. The space can get crowded due to the smaller layout, so there may be a wait during peak times, but the quick service helps keep things flowing.
Overall, Kenzo Ramen Spadina is a reliable spot for a comforting bowl of ramen with a welcoming neighborhood atmosphere. The combination of flavorful broth, satisfying portions, friendly service, and a casual setting makes it an easy place to return to when you are craving Japanese comfort food.“

“Best place for a filling lunch in Union! I come here whenever I want a hearty meal during my work break. The simple set with ramen and chashudon is generous and satisfying, and the yuzu cheesecake is a great dessert finish, bright and citrusy, with just the right amount of sweetness. The staff are also super friendly and kind. When I was confused about a recent price change, the owner was understanding and handled it graciously. Highly recommend!“

“Grabbed a late lunch here on Saturday around 2pm and the place was still buzzing, which says something about the food. Went with the Kinton Ramen classic and the tare was rich without being heavy, plus the chashu was perfectly soft, not chewy at all. Staff kept the pace moving even with a line out the door, checking in without hovering, which I appreciate after eating at way too many ramen spots on the road. Seating was tighter than I expected given the crowd, but the open kitchen setup gave the whole space a nice energy that made the wait worth it.“

“I have dined here twice at their Bank Street location twice. The first time I visited, it was to enjoy one of their delicious ramens for $10 while helping them celebrate their 3rd anniversary. My second time visiting, I enjoyed their new and delicious Black TanTan Ramen and their black sesame seeds that you can crush and sprinkle into your bowl of ramen. 🍜 Also, don't be discouraged by the colour of this ramen's broth, because of its greyish colour. It tastes much better than it looks. 😋“

“I came in while travelling from Vancouver and the waiter was an excellent host to our lunch. He gave me a very good recommendation of their clam ramen base broth. I was an initially hesitant however it was a very worthwhile experience. Having eaten ramen extensively across major cities in Canada and Japan, the food tasted very good“

“We walked in for noodles and enjoyed them! You can walk by and see the workers hand pull the noodles which is fun. We tried the braised beef brisket noodles and the traditional beef, I liked the braised beef more. The noodles were thick and delicious, you can custom choose your noodle size as well. Great for a quick dinner, we’ll be coming back!“
