May 19, 2026 - Kinton was celebrating it's anniversary, and all their ramens were $10. I got a beef shoyu and a beef spicy garlic. Both were really good. You could really taste the garlic in the spicy garlic. The spice was very solid as well. I was sweating, and definitely able to taste the spice! Overall, it was a run of the mill ramen. Very solid. No complaints. read more

We got the pork and chicken original ramen. The chicken ramen was better, the broth had more flavour and umami. The service was alright, the staff were quick. There is outdoor seating but once you're past 9:30/10pm they start to bring in the chairs and tables. They will ask you to bring your food inside. Great quick eats spot! read more

I was watching hing Japanese cooking Ramen on Youtube and craves Ramen. I had really good Ramen at Sansotei but that's far from me so I tried Kinton. It was smoky flavored as advertised but the broth was missing that umami I had come to expect from Ramen. The food was take out well packaged, was hot when I got it. I won't order again. And I hate saying this but it's the truth. read more

If you are a ramen lover, you'll go wrong with Kinton. Chicken Karaage holds its #1 spot among my Kinton favourites. This spot is located in the busy area in Yonge-Eglinton but wasn't easy to find. Chicken Donburi was yummy too. Rice was a bit hard though, not quite my type, but the portion was perfect for me.

We both tried the beef original ramen each. We got extra noodles and shared toppings for the kid. I found it tasting ok but wanted more flavour - luckily they gave some chili spice. Prices have gone up with inflation. The amount of noodles seem to have lessened too. The rest in my party wanted matcha ice cream so we got it. It's quite pricey at $6 for two tiny tiny scoops. The tables outside were not steady and the cups were light and spillable. People have spilled water on themselves as a result. They didn't seem to give them extra tissue to help clean up, but did offer to love them. The toothpicks individually packaged and the mouthwash in the bathroom were nice touches and nice to have a change table in the bathroom. I do like the vegetarian option (we got in take out once) is now inari sushi skin instead of tofu cake but that also seems less filling. read more

Location/Service This place is right along Eglinton, east of Yonge. Eglinton is going massive construction for years, so it's best to find parking around the vicinity - either a green P parking complex nearby or in the streets. The place is a bit tricky to find cause of the construction and they don't have a huge sign - like all of their locations. But you should be able to recognize it once you see the wooden tables and chairs layout right by the window. Interior is very consistent with the other locations and staff are very nice and helpful when we requested high chairs and large groups. Food I like how Kinton does have seasonal items that match the season. This photo was taken back in summer and they have a Ramen/Beer combo for about $20. You basically can choose any of their regular item ramen and add a beer at about 12oz of your choice. Ramen and beer is ultimately the best combo - so can't go wrong there. My go-to ramen is usually their tonkotsu shio broth. It's thick, flavourful that blends very well with the cha siu. It gives a heartwarming feel that hits the right spot. I do thick noodles as well cause I'm a noodle fan. The egg is almost done to perfection - runny and soft. As for beer, it's usually their Japanese beers Sapporo or Kirin. Overall nice to see a ramen place mid-town. This location is perfect for residents nearby and working employees in the business buildings. read more

We ordered delivery from Kinton. I had the pork miso ramen, and I really enjoyed the broth. It was not overly salty. It was expensive for the portion size, as the two pieces of meat and small amount of noodles were not enough for a full meal. Perhaps they give more noodles for dine in. The chicken karaage came with three large pieces and Japanese mayo. There was too much breading on the chicken, so this altered the taste a bit too much. read more

I'm definitely a Kinton fan as I go pretty often. I usually order the spicy ones as the other ones taste blend. The meat slices are a good thickness. Generally the services are pretty fast, just chat with friend and the time flies by. The chairs are a bit uncomfortable though. I like to have the seats a bit bigger. read more

This is my go to spot whenever I'm craving ramen. Kinton never disappoints me. Their portion is great and flavours are great! Their current promotion, Kintonlicious, is the perfect combo at a great price! It comes with a fried chicken, a ramen and a cheesecake to finish off the meal. The karaage is tricky when it comes to takeout, but they are always freshly made and still hot when I get home! Pork original is my go to ramen as it comes with the egg, but since I had that twice in a week, I decided to try their chicken shoyu which was also very delicious. The slices of chicken in the ramen was also very lean but not overly dry and the broth was very flavourful. My only complain is I wish they have the kurogoma cheesecake on the menu still! read more

I've been to the one near Eaton Centre so often as a Ryerson student, that I jumped at the chance of going to another location when I was in the area of Yonge and Eglinton. This location did not disappoint! The service is phenomenal as expected from Kinton. Friendly staff greet you at the door and are attentive throughout the meal. The staff are super friendly, polite and always have a warm smile. The ramen is such a great comfort food. It's fresh, warm and full of flavour. If you are able to finish your entire bowl, you get a stamp on their stamp card, which goes towards free ramen. I love that they encourage you not to waste food! Parking can be annoying as expected along Yonge street. There is a paid parking lot nearby though, at the Yonge and Eglinton Centre. TTC is very accessible since it's a short walk away from the Eglinton subway station. read more

I loved how specialized of a ramen place Kinton Ramen is. There are several ramen types available (Shoyu, Miso, Karaage, etc.) and it can be paired with either Pork or Chicken. Depending on the selection of meat, they will pair the ramen bowl with either a white bowl with a chicken logo or a black bowl with an icon of a pig. This minor detail is easy to miss, but something I look out for in restaurants. Kinton Ramen also carries a wide selection of side dishes. My group got to try their Kimchi, Takoyaki, Tofu Furai, and Age Gyoza. Their Age Gyoza are something my companions really enjoyed and we ended up having 4 side orders of Gyoza for our group of four. The people I was with at the time of this review are not extensively familiar with Japanese food and beverages, and the offered items in the menu gave me a good chance to acquaint them to it. Personally, I ordered the Yuzu Hot Toddy just to get to try something different. I let my fellows try some distinctly Japanese Sake, and it was a really good experience for them. The order of Sake was enough to fill around 3-5 shot glasses which was more than enough for them to properly be introduced to the Japanese drink. Overall, it was a good dining experience to celebrate a small occasion we had. We ended up staying around 2 and a half hours and were the last group to leave before their closing at 11 PM. The setting was neat and themed, and service was excellent. read more

The location is great and super convenient, so I was really hoping that this place would be good. However I was very disappointed. I was really hungry so the first few bites tasted great, but everything went south really fast. I ordered the original pork ramen with a side of gyoza. The gyoza was not bad, it was part of the combo meal so it was only $2 extra. The pork was 100% fat... no meat at all. The soup broth was ok (not great) and the noodle texture was not chewy enough. The egg was also over cooked (more like hard boiled instead of soft boiled) My boyfriend ordered the shoyu ramen and the broth was awful. After eating here I got a stomach ache and felt really nauseous. Unfortunately I don't think I will be coming back here even though it's so convenient. What a shame. read more

I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty one of their summer specials was - the Amaze Mazeman. I had gotten takeout here last summer (a broth ramen and hot chicken karage) and recalled it being pretty mediocre. I like how many toppings you get with the brothless ramen - corn, poached egg, two pieces of pork, mayo etc - they complimented the lightly sauced noodles. Overall, It was a very filling meal. To top things off, prices are very agreeable too. read more

As in my previous review this is a very nice place. I love the food. I tried a few different ramens and they were all good. The only thing which I think can be adjusted is a price and portion sizes. Normally the dish is around $13.5 to $17 (the latter for specials) I think it is somewhat pricy for a dish which mostly contains of broth and noodles. Plus I can never finish and most of the time I leave half of it which is a waste of money. I would suggest introducing smaller size portions this way reducing the price. It might attract especially females who can't eat too much :) read more

Who doesn't love Winterlicious in Toronto? One of the best times of the year!! It's been awhile since I've gone out and enjoyed a nice meal with my academics piling up. This was well deserved especially on a cold evening. You can never go wrong with Kinton!! Comfort food at its finest. It is definitely on my top favourite ramen places. Best part was that it was during Winterlicious in Toronto, meaning they had such an amazing deal for $20: - Choice of Vegetarian, Pork or Chicken Ramen - Choice of dumpling appetizer - Matcha green tea ice cream desert YES PLEASE. One ramen bowl on it own can start at $12.99 - $14.99+ so this was a steal. Flavour it always great. I prefer thick noodles for my ramen because it fills you up more (that could just be, who knows). Regardless, the staff is always a delight at every Kinton chain I've been to so you'll definitely be treated well. But so keep in mind it can get quite loud/rowdy here! It's all part of the experience. read more

This will be short. I've been to this location around 5 times. The service is always great. I went yesterday and had the spicy beef ramen. Tasted great, but now I'm sick with everything you can imagine. My friend, who was with me yesterday is also going through the same. I dined a few months ago with another friend who also got sick, throwing up a few hours after eating the ramen. I was fine and thought it was maybe from something they ate earlier, so I had no concerns returning yesterday. Not sure how long this will persist........... read more

Yesterday I tried the Pork Miso and I must say this restaurant overwhelmed me by the quality services, the food, the hot sake, the atmosphere of the place, the temperature of the dishes... all the servers were very polite and patient always with a big smile on their faces... you feel welcomed there!

Finally a Ramen place in Scarborough! There really is nothing quite so comforting as a tasty bowl of ramen on a rainy friday afternoon. My sister & I decided to finally try out this new place since we were in the area. It's conveniently located at 401 & Kennedy, right behind the large Kennedy Commons Plaza. (it's technically still part of Kennedy Commons, but it's a little bit separated and off to the side. When we first walked in at around 1pm, it was still pretty busy with the lunch crowd. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, that when you first walk in, they all shout hello to you in Japanese. It really makes you smile. We were seated by our lovely server Aiyano, who was very attentive and had great some recommendations. We decided to go with the Chicken Miso & the Vegetarian Ramen, both with thick noodles. The Chicken Miso, was good, but I was hoping it would have a little more flavour to it. The Vegetarian Ramen was good, but it wasn't out-of-this-world delicious. The portion size was HUGE, so big that my sister could barely finish the bowl. Both dishes also lacked spice, but our server brought us some chili flakes and srirachi to help with that. Lastly, as we got ready to leave, all the staff shouted goodbye to us in Japanese. Overall, it a was a great first experience, I wasn't blown away by the dishes, but I wouldn't count it out the next time I'm craving Ramen. The great service is really what make the experience memorable. read more

Tried kinkalicious! Some cool flavours and no lineup. Got spicy pork ramen - you could taste that the noodles were hand-made, great feel. The soup base itself was a bit too salty. The komi chicken was fresh and tasted great, the slight sweetness of the sauce balances the dish well. Only problem was there was too much sauce, and it pooled at the bottom of the dish. Pudding was not too sweet, and had the roasted flavour. read more

We went here for Saturday lunch. The Kinton Ramen location was nicely decorated. The staff was very friendly and enthusiastic. But the background music was too loud and the constant staff yelling got to be annoying. I ordered the pork ramen with extra corn. My friend ordered the chicken ramen. The dishes were both pretty good and delicious. Would we go back? Probably since there isn't that many ramen restaurants in the neighbourhood. read more

I don't usually like to update my reviews, but sometimes you have an experience that's just so drastically different from your first visit that you have to write about it. We showed up at Kinton around 1:00 on a recent Saturday and the place was predictably crowded, but we were shown to a table in the back after waiting just a few minutes. So far so good. About 15 minutes after we sat down (and after we ordered), though, our waitress moved the empty table next to us so that it was about an inch away from our table. And then she crammed an additional two tables next to that one. Sure enough, minutes later a very loud party of six was seated mere centimeters away from us. The experience was completely ruined, but we had already ordered so it was impossible to just walk out (which I desperately wanted to do). At least the food will be good, I thought to myself. Not so much. I decided to get the monthly special, Gyukotsu Ramen ("thin noodles in creamy beef bone broth topped w/ roast beef, seasoned egg, bean sprouts, garlic chips, cilantro and scallions"). It's terrible, to get straight to the point. This has got to be the blandest, most tasteless broth I can remember eating. It just tastes creamy but without any flavor or spices. Salt? Nope. Heat? Forget about it. It was so gross, in fact, I didn't eat more than half of the bowl. I should note also that our waitress was terrible and ineffectual. We didn't get any water until I flagged down another waiter, and then our glasses remainder empty for the duration of the meal. And since she was never around, I had to walk up to her to ask for the bill - at which point she asked which table I was at. Of course you have no idea which table is mine! I haven't seen you since I ordered! What a joke. For the first time in my entire life, I didn't leave any kind of tip. This kind of atrocious and flat-out rude service doesn't even deserve a flat penny. It goes without saying that I'll never return. read more

I would love to give 0 star if I can. The food quality of this location is just getting worse. I've been to other Kinton ramen locations but this place is just horrible. Broth was tasteless, had 0 flavour, noodle was bland. Pork was full of fat and bland. Save your money and please spend that for other GOOD restaurants. My boyfriend, who usually never complains about his food, thought the food was gross. Yes it was that bad. We left the restaurant 3 minutes after we received our "food". Disgusting. read more

I'm a fan of Kinton Ramen. I know they have a bunch of locations sprouting up, but they have a formula and it works dammit! This is no exception. After several visits I can say their ramen is consistent with other locations. Tasty and soaked in flavour. The only drawback are the growing pains of being a new location. Case in point, delays when ordering and getting order's mixed up. This only seemed to happen the first few times I went and has since cleared up. They have a really good takeout system in place. Everything is separated and comes with a bowl large enough to eat out of when you haul it back to work. There's no reason why you can't get your Ramen fix several times a week now! Their other offerings are also well made. The Takoyaki was especially amazing! Soft and covered in saucy goodness. read more

It's a Japanese ramen shop, and since it's only a hundred meters from my school, I often go there during lunch. They have more than 20 different flavors of pasta, and I always switch from one to the other. Their eggs are very good, with soup in the middle. The waiter always smiles at me, too. It feels good! read more

Food: 3/5, service: 2/5, and cleanness: 2/5 My and my bf decided to try their February special ramen and their spicy garlic pork ramen. They are not bad, I'd say the presentation of the food was good. But taste wise honestly it was very average compares to other ramen I've had in the city. The service was not outstanding at all. Since we were offered to sit until we decided to leave, the whole time no waitress/waiter came to us to top our water, or ask about how the meal was, etc. The table was disgustingly dirty. I swiped on the table with napkins, and it was all dirt. I reported to the waitress instantly and all she did was to take my napkins from me. Good thing I took a picture of it before they took it away. So overall, I probably wouldn't wanna go back. read more

Grand opening with a promotion of $5.50 to $6 per bowl of ramen means predictably long line up and long wait. And that's how it was with Kinton's new location grand opening at Eglington. The wait lasted 1 to 1.5 hours, and for my group of 10, we had to be split up if we wanted to get in faster. Thankfully the restaurant was organzied in the sense that one associate was outside the restaurant taking orders before we went inside. And food came after we sat down shortly. I ordered chicken shoyu thin noodle ramen and it tasted decent. The soup could use a little less salt. Other than that it was nice to enjoy this promotion. read more

I can't remember the last time I was at a Kinton but a new one opened up recently in the Yonge/Eglinton area. I was hot, sweaty & hungry so I decided to stop in. I didn't order their regular ramen because I wasn't impressed with them in the past. Instead I ordered the chilled ramen which is like the poor man's version of tsukemen served cold. Just like the name says the noodles were chilled, even the 2 thick pieces of dry pork shoulder. The dipping sauce was a soya sesame base which you mix in the scallions, purée daikon, raw quail egg & wasabi into. It was different, good on a hot day if you want something cold I guess but it wasn't for me. It seemed like I was scarfing on leftovers from someone else's fridge after waking up from a drunk fest the night before. Service was also not up to par and I was the only patron dining. I had to ask for more water and wasn't checked on during the meal. Maybe that's the Japanese service culture but that will not fly in Canada. read more

I went to their grand opening when they offered their ramen bowls for 50% off. There was a long line during lunch hour but the staff handled the crowd as best they could. When arriving near the door, the host took the orders of everyone in the party. When seating was available, they quickly showed us to our table. There were times when the host did not know where to seat patrons and at times, people were moved to accommodate the crowds. The ramen was pretty good but we needed to ask the server for water. At times, they needed to ask patrons to confirm their orders. The location is around the same size as the one in North York. The location is slightly east of Yonge on Eglinton where the subway construction is happening so it will be dusty for a while. When I left, the line got longer even after the peak lunch hour. read more

We went to this restaurant located at Davisville for half price ramen which was $6 per bowl. Even though there was no name banner on the door, you won't miss it because there were so many people lining up for this event. We waited for one and a half hours and finally got sitting in. I ordered the original pork ramen which included two pieces of fat pork, two pieces of lean meat, seaweed and an boiled egg. The noodle you can choose thick or thin. The soup was too salty for me so that I couldn't finish all because I kept drinking tea. The meat was too dry. For a ramen restaurant, I will give it an average grade. I would not recommend people to eat there unless they have a super deal. read more

Very noisy place. I like their minimalist decor. Limited menu choice. Clean place. Friendly and efficient service. I ordered the monthly special: noodles could be softer, and seared pork belly was seared only on the outside, so when I ate the slices, it actually tasted much like broiled pork belly, which is not good. The black sesame cheesecake is not very strong with its sesame taste. Conclusion: Itto has the best Seared pork belly ramen with black garlic oil, Ajitsen has a the best steak ramen, Kinton soup base is better the Sansotei which is too oily. read more

I mean hi there's noodles and garlic and spicy was and meat and broth and what else does one need for happiness? This place makes really tasty ramen and while I've become a fan of many ramen places over the years, I always find the shoyu ramen and the spicy garlic ramen (which at this location is VERY spicy, be warned) to be very solid. This is the ramen I tend to crave, especially on cold days. Delivery is a bit expensive if you don't want to do pick up, but I've often absorbed the charge when I was desperate for the ramen and didn't want to leave the house. I have also done the pick up here and it went off without a hitch during COVID. Frankly, the most challenging thing is finding the door to the place from the street and once that's done, the deliciousness of the food is the only thing that counts. read more
