Kintaro Ramen

My first time attending this restaurant, yes the portions are big but the ramen 🍜 broth is bland, the noodles are to thick and hard, the gyosas were ok, but to be honest one of the most greasy, flavorless and bland ramens I’ve tried in vancouver.

Japanese restaurant that instantly makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a traditional street-side eatery in Japan. The open kitchen lets you watch as they prepare the ramen and all its toppings right in front of you and the Ramen is so delicious and flavourful. The staff is very attentive and friendly, and they even have a ramen happy hour! I tried a bit of everything and would definitely come back—highly recommended.

Service here was great server was very nice and knowledgeable about getting us the right order. Really loved the broth it had just the right amount of richness without being too much. Chashu was delicious and so was the egg. Would come back if I were in town again!

It was surprising. Never expected a ramen store could have this much portions. When we seeing the meat we were like wow we definitely come next time. It’s quite special taking the spicy garlic soup base as it did contain a lot of garlics. Can’t say the best noodles but quite satisfying. Place is small and squeezed but the server is sweet and nice.

when u go for a ramen, what do u look for? a soup with depth and body from a broth simmered for HOURS, or onr that just tastes like salt water with no dimension and no flavour at all? because this ones the latter!! lay ur eyes on a ramen that just tastes SO salty u cant even eat it with a soup that just looks like soup but tastes like salt water!!! tho id say their portion on charsiu is better and their takenoko / bamboo shoots are very well marinated, the soup just makes it unbearable to eat... 1/5 as for the spicy garlic ramen it just tasted korean with the flavour of chili powder and garlic only... its also as bland as blanched chicken indeed 1/5 overall 1/5

My wife and I visited this restaurant today. When we first arrived, the staff seemed a bit unfriendly and asked us to wait outside for a while before being seated. We ordered two bowls of ramen, but the broth was quite greasy with visible chunks of fat, which made it a bit heavy and less enjoyable. Additionally, my wife found a hair in her soup. The server did apologize quickly, but there was no further follow-up after that. Overall, it wasn’t the best experience for us. I hope the restaurant can improve both the service and food quality, and I would suggest diners consider this before visiting.

Much more than it looks like from the outside: An almost tiny ramen place with the best bowls I had in town. An amazing elaborate process of cooking you can witness, its fresh and tasty and a lot of food you get. I come for years and it’s always the same quality. No extra charge for egg or seaweed to the vegetarian version I prefer and I had to pay at other places. Enjoy!

Probably my least favourite ramen so far. We got the garlic one and the miso ramen. Both were pretty flavourless. Maybe we should have chosen for the soup to be rich instead of just medium? The egg was not good either. It was not soft boiled and tasted off, I didn't even manage to finish the other half. The waitress was friendly, there was no line, and the food came out relatively quickly. Small space but it works well.
