Good combo deals. Gyoza was crisp and juicy with a nice sauce. Good portions of ramen, savoury broth. Tables and seats are small with no seatbacks so difficult with coats and bags. Had the seasonal combo with yuzu lemonade and burnt shoyu ramen. Food comes out fast, so good for a pre-game meal.
Came here for lunch on a weekday. I sat at the bar and ordered the Spicy Garlic pork ramen. It was one of the best spicy ramen broths I've had. It's not too salty, and not weak spice level like the ramen you find in Seattle. It's got good heat but it didn't overpower the complex flavours of the broth. I got the thin noodle as well, and it was great texture. The only knock is that it's on the pricier side at $16.99 for this special ramen. That said their regular flavour is $15.99, and they have a lunch combo for regular ramen + gyoza + drink all for $15.99. So if you're here for lunch, get the combo.
We got the Mortal Kombat Kombo and the Cozy Kinton Combo. The appetizers - the Tokyo Fries and Fried Pork Gyoza. The Tokyo Fries were the best. Double fried to have a crunchy outer with a buttery creamy inner topped with furukake and Katzo. The gyoza were deep fried - crunchy. Nothing special. The fries were ten times better. The ramen we had were the Burnt Shoyu and Original flavors. The Original has a depth and richness. Buttery finish. Darn good. The Burnt Shoyu was different- a bit smoky. Good.
Amazing Ramen spot in the heart of Vancouver not only for the different kinds of offerings of Ramen plus they have combos as well, but also great beers sides and awesome prices. We got the jalapeño and the spicy pork ramen and both packed a really nice punch - pleasantly surprised with the level of spice as well as the rich flavor of the broth. Also we opted for the thick noodles which were cooked to perfection, and the pork was definitely on point! To drink, we ordered a draft beer and I had the Yuzu cloud which was really delicious - not overly sweet and definitely reminded me of a beermosa, but with a Yuzu punch. Pricing is really reasonable and you even have the option to do combos for two which include two ramens, a side and two drinks - if you want to substitute they'll charge you based on the item that you substitute for. Service is super friendly, quick and helpful in a very clean and modern environment with trendy vibes. I would definitely come back to the spot if I'm ever back in town and coming from someone who has been lucky enough to have ramen in Tokyo several times this spot definitely hits the mark in terms of all its flavors - the way that the ramen is prepared and also the overall taste is awesome.
We came here for their anniversary of $9.99 ramen. I tried the pokr spicy garlic, and it was super umami. A good deep broth is a good quality ramen. The spicy was too much for me. I wonder if I can ask for less spice next time. One of their chashu is torched, and the other one isn't, but both are soft. I found out that their original shio tonkotsu version includes an egg, so that is a good incentive to try that one next time! We also tried their spicy beef garlic, but the flavor was lacking compared to the pork.
From Texas here. Food is fantastic, great and friendly staffs, fast and yummy what else can you ask for? Comfort food and would come here again!
Service is quick and this little place is unusually busy. They have a burnt shoyu ramen combo that includes fries/fried gyoza and a drink for $24.99. I opted just for the ramen. Soup is tasty, good dose of garlic but unfortunately the 2 slices of pork was really fatty. If you do a review and show it to the server, you get free matcha ice cream. The place is small but not too loud. Don't bring large groups.
Unbelievable takeout experience! I just ordered from this location as my first meal in Vancouver, and was thoroughly impressed with the quality and ingenuity of their packaging. Their classic chicken ramen is SOLID! The broth has a nice whole flavor, and just the right amount of umami to make your toes curl a bit! While I can't speak to the ambience of this location (because I ordered in), I can definitely tell you that they're a real treat for fast service takeout. I can't wait to try other dishes here, and highly recommend the fried veggie gyoza as a stand out item!
Really good surprising ramen broth with the spicy garlic one. The soy or something in the chicken should change. Dinner * Spicy garlic tonkatsu ramen (Excellent) * Tonkatsu ramen (Good) * Chicken ramen (Ok)
Food was good. Just hard seats. Can't sit for ages and ages. Liked that they are open until midnight. My friend had the meal for one + yuzu cheesecake (I declined trying because I gotta cut back on dairy). I had the basic pork ramen. Not sure I'd order that particular one again. The eggs were jammy and yummy. I could go for those in a different ramen. Karage and gyoza were tasty. Good service.
I usually visit restaurants by word of mouth or reading reviews for different places, but Kinton Ramen caught my eye as I was walking through downtown because of their $15 summer special! It includes a "simple" original Ramen, Tokyo fries (fries topped with bonito and seaweed) , and a drink, valid from July 22- Sep 29, 2024. They were out of the two summer drinks which was disappointing as that was one of the main reasons I had wanted to try, but I was able to substitute it for a ramune instead. The other detail you should note is that the ramen in the special doesn't have any meat or egg, only wood ear and bamboo shoots. The original soup was not bad, creamy and umami while not being too salty. The fries were standard but I couldn't get the seaweed and bonito to stick to actually enjoy the flavours together. They were basically regular fries. I shared the pork gyoza with my friends. It was deep fried crispy on the outside but very soft on the inside. I'm not sure if I enjoy the softness of the meat inside as it didn't feel very substantial. Make sure you look at the ingredients for each soup! My friend decided to switch her broth from original to shoyu, only realizing after that it didn't include an egg. I do find it odd that you can't just switch the broth while keeping the ingredients the same. The chashu in the ramen looked decent, and I could see the kitchen staff using a blowtorch to smoke all the meat. The restaurant is quite small but there is bar seating and standard seating. We were able to watch the kitchen staff cook at the bar. We also noticed they had colour coded bowls showing which type of meat you choose for your ramen! And of course this Kinton location is in downtown so parking is challenging, but we had taken transit.

came by during kinton ramen's 14th anniversary $9.99 ramen promo at the robson and homer location at 6:00 pm and honestly expected complete chaos, but the line moved surprisingly fast. staff were handing out menus to people near the front of the line and taking orders before they were seated, so the whole process felt much more organized and efficient than it looked from outside. the space has that modern fast casual ramen chain energy, warm wood interiors, open kitchen noise, narrow seating, and the constant sound of people aggressively slurping noodles around you. definitely more lively downtown ramen hub than quiet cozy noodle shop, but it works for the atmosphere. i liked that they give you the option of thick or thin noodles depending on what texture you want. i went with the spicy garlic chicken ramen with thin noodles and added a seasoned egg, while my partner got the original pork ramen, sapporo beer and a side of karaage chicken. first thing i noticed: so. much. noodles. seriously, the portions are huge. like many ramen places, it's very carb heavy and incredibly filling, one of those bowls where you think you're halfway done and somehow the noodle level hasn't changed at all. the broth itself was rich, flavourful, slightly spicy, and loaded with raw minced garlic, which gave it a much stronger punch compared to more subtle ramen broths. the seasoned egg was definitely worth the extra $1.99 and added that creamy savoury balance ramen always needs. not personally a huge fan of bamboo shoots though, so those mostly got pushed to the side. the karaage chicken was just okay, three pieces of thigh meat with decent crunch, but nothing especially memorable compared to the ramen itself. overall though, pretty solid value for downtown vancouver, especially during the promo. left feeling full and immediately needed to walk it off afterwards. read more
Had a great experience at Kinton Ramen! When my group of 3 arrived the tables were all full so I put my name down to wait. It wasn't too bad. When we sat down j like how it had a relaxed vibe inside and wasn't so cramped! They had a ramen deal where you can get ramen + gyoza + a drink for $14.99 and the portion was perfect. It's a great value. Anyway, Kinton is a great place for ramen if you're downtown and craving it! read more

The pork original has a charred smokiness that makes it oh so yummy. Broth is complex and balanced and doesn't rely shoyu too much. Cute ambiance and great friendly service. read more

Arrived into Vancouver from SFO late night. Perfect ramen place. A bit fusion but better than average. Noodle was great soup is 7.5/10. We order beef, pork, spicy pork and Dan Dan. However the appetizer was great. Recommend karage and takoyaki. Pass on gyoza. read more

My friend and I went on a rainy Saturday evening around 9pm. We picked this place among all other ramen options in downtown since it has high ratings, plus it opens until midnight. This is a newer location just under a year among their multiple locations. They have promotions from time to time. The restaurant was half occupied. It was smaller than I thought. Dining area including the bar was about 26 in capacity. The chairs are stools, except for the bench along the wall. The server was friendly and got us seated efficiently. The place was bright with the earth tone decor. The chairs are stools due to the space. The pricing of the ramen was very reasonable. The desserts, on the other hand, were a tad pricey for their size/quantity. We ordered: - Burnt Shoyu Ramen - Pork Original Ramen (Thin) - Yuzu Cheesecake - Matcha Ice Cream The burnt flavour added to the shoyu ramen is like regular ham vs smoked ham. It has a stronger and richer flavour which I appreciate. The variation of charred flavour has made the regular shoyu more bold and appealing for me. There were 2 thick slices of tender pork belly. Very yummy! I wish they have the option to order more slices. The whole soft boiled egg was perfectly marinated from egg white to the perfect yolk. The yellow ramen was perfectly al dente. Every chew had the substance. It might be hard for you if you prefer it softer. The soup was where the soul of its boldness. My friend's Pork Original Ramen (thin white ramen) was al dente also. The creamy white soup base was flavourful. It came with a whole soft boiled egg on all non-vegan ramen options. The toppings were generous. They have pork, chicken, beef and veggie on the main. For soup base, they have original, shoyu, miso, and spicy. Check out their menu. You can choose thin or thick ramen, plus more toppings. They offered these flavours for cheesecake when we were there: Black.sesame, matcha, mango and yuzu. Yuzu was very citrusy and refreshing. The texture of the cheesecake was like the New York style. The matcha ice cream was nothing special. The matcha flavour was subtle. You get 2 small scoops. I will not order it again. Overall, it was a nice first experience. Once we sat down, the rest of the restaurant was filled up quickly. People came and go even when we left around 10pm. read more

My first impression of this place is oh, it's 'different'. Why? Well, in other Japanese ramen places in Vancouver, despite the sometimes long wait, I got used to servers efficiently taking the number of people and assigning seats. The seat assignment is horrible, they allow two couples taking two four-seaters so that they can sit next to each other while people are waiting outside. Granted the wait is not long but oh the inefficiency grated me. So we sat down and being used to minimal but functional seatings with storage in other ramen places, I tried to look for storage for our jackets. Nope, nothing is provided, which turned out to be a good thing since we were seated close to the door. Anyway, these two things don't bother me enough but when the food we ordered (Burnt shoyu ramen with thin noodle and Spicy Pork Garlic ramen with thick noodle) arrived, I was so disappointed. The only good thing about my spicy ramen is that it's spicy, but I don't like anything else about it. The noodle was too soft, the broth doesn't have much depth in the taste. I taste the garlic but that's because they just plopped a teaspoon of raw garlic on top of the broth. All of these are still tolerable until I took a bite of my second chashu and have to spit it out. It was disgusting, it tasted old and was hard to chew. I tried my partner's burnt shoyu ramen and I hate the broth even more. To be fair though, I am generally not fond of shoyu broth. Fortunately, he didn't get a disgusting piece of chashu so his rating is a 3. I would recommend skipping this place if you are looking for Japanese ramen, Vancouver has so many other ramen places that are much better. read more
Tried the pork miso with thick noodles and their fall special golden sesame. I thought the broths were a tad bit cold and the flavors were less rich, but the thick noodles were amazing and probably the best ramen noodles I've tried compared to most other ramen restaurants I've been to in Vancouver. The thick noodles had a nice bounce and chew to them that were cooked through perfectly! read more

Came by for the $12 lunch special which was ok. The chashu don had a perfect amount of smokiness from the char and the sauce was perfect. The ramen on the other hand was bland. The broth didn't have any depth or richness of flavour and while the ramen noodles were cooked well, the lack of flavour in the broth took away from the experience. I wonder if their other broths are different but I wasn't a fan of this one read more
I got the spicy garlic pork ramen! The ramen wasn't too heavy but the broth was still very salty and yummy. I do wish the meat was tastier or softer - I love when it melts in my mouth. There's not much space to sit so I would say come prepared to scout for a table or wait. read more

Great food, great service! We ordered original pork, shoyu pork and a spicy pork ramen, tako ball and fries. (One beer combo and one 2 ramen combo) with upgrade drinks to sparking yuzu lemonade (+$4). The original soup ramen came with the egg but the two didn't come with an egg. I love the original soup better than the shoyu but they were both delicious. The Yuzu lemonade was very refreshing It said if you leave a Google review you can get a free matcha ice cream too.. we were too full so didn't get to taste it.. but i do want to leave a good review to this place. My son said give them a 10 stars read more
