KINTON RAMEN VAUGHAN

I recently tried Japanese food for the first time at this restaurant, and I have to admit—I’m now a fan! The spicy flavors were perfect for my Indian taste buds, and the soupy noodles with beef were absolutely delicious. The service was exceptional as well. The staff served us with warm smiles, and the service manager ensured everything was perfect, which made the experience even better. Overall, a fantastic experience! I highly recommend this place for Japanese food in the Vaughan/Woodbridge area. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Not the best ramen, but it's good for the price you pay! The matcha ice cream was really good! The service was amazing, the waitress we had was very sweet and friendly!

As much as I wanted to like this place, the ramen just did not taste good at all. The appetizers were great and the server was lovely but the ramen was a bit disappointing.

The staff were friendly and the side dishes were delicious. The ramen, however, tasted poorly. ordered the spicy pork ramen. The noodles tasted uncooked, there was only 2 small pieces of pork compared to other places I've been to (tasted good though) and the broth was a bit tasteless.

Came in for a quick lunch today. The service is great, the food is tasty and the atmosphere is really cool as well. I really loved the design of the place. :) *The broth can be a bit spicy if you are not too used to spices but it was still good!

The broth was amazing. Noodles and meat were tender and flavorful and paired well with the chicken karaage.

Came here on the afternoon of the grand opening day with my family. There was a long wait and line-up as expected, but we were offered free tea while waiting, so that was pretty pleasant. When we were seated, the service was fairly quick and the waiters were nice, as well. The atmosphere of the restaurant is a bit tight since the seats, especially the 4-person tables are very close to each other, but it is lively though and feels inviting. In terms of the food, the plating looked very appetizing; however, I was quite disappointed that there were only 2 single small pieces of beef in my ramen, because in the menu, the pieces looked fairly large. I ordered the beef shoyu ramen, and it was $18.99, so I’m expecting there to be more meat for the price that I’m paying. Of course, because of the grand opening, all single ramen bowls were 50% off, but on a regular day, $18.99 seems too much for just two tiny single pieces of meat and the rest of the dish are just the noodles and veggies. The noodles and the beef was good, but the smell and taste of the beef is very similar to that of barbecued steak and the scent was so strong, therefore, it was overpowering the original soy sauce broth of the ramen. So, I wasn’t able to get much flavor from the broth, since it just tasted like barbecued steak the whole time. My parents ordered the beef original ramen which is also priced at $18.99, except it comes with a whole egg, so that was nice, but there was still only 2 small pieces of beef and the broth of the beef original ramen was lacking a lot of umami and tasted bland, to be honest. I was also saddened that there was no discount offer on the other side dishes nor the family meal for 4 combo, besides the singular ramen bowls, and especially since it was the first day of grand opening, it was a bit upsetting to hear that. Overall, it was a mediocre experience, but I would not consider coming back the next time, unfortunately and will find other alternative ramen shops that have cheaper prices, nonetheless, shoutout to the waitresses and waiters for their kind service! (Nov 2023) UPDATE - ( JULY 2024) - Kinton Ramen has definitely improved in quality and I’ve ordered twice here via DoorDash and also went in-person again. Their special menus and summer menus are the best, way better than the regular menu, so it would be nice if those dishes became permanent and not limited time offer only. The dry noodle beef mazement bowl is delicious! It would be nice if there was more beef and veggies added, but other than that, it’s good 😋! Sauce is a bit salty, but it’s alright 👌 Also, I don’t know why but their online delivery service is much faster than in-person dine-in, which doesn’t really make sense to me, but thumbs up for quick service via DoorDash; however in-person dine-in service needs to be quicker. Me and my dad and few others were in the store, but service took quite long though. The waiter is alright, hospitality could be better, but pretty decent nonetheless 👌 Also, great idea offering a special price discount for the ramen + rice lunch meal, but it would be better if the ramen wasn’t plain though. Some egg/ pork or tofu at least , would be good. Also, the stools kind of hurt to be honest and not comfortable, and also the cups need to be washed thoroughly more because I found onion stuck to my cup. Will be ordering again next time though, but please consider my suggestions for improvement!
