KINTON RAMEN HAMILTON REVIEWS

Food is delicious, large portions and full of flavour 10/10 recommend. I got the beef original and my boyfriend got the beef miso shown below. Our server Dong was super friendly and made sure to read us the order before placing and checked in on us about 10 minutes into which is nice I had time to actually taste the food unlike some places. Dine sat us down and did end up checking on us as well. I recommend for a good meal. Friendly service and a good atmosphere, little loud but at least people aren't listening to your conversations.

Came in here for lunch, loved it! Even sitting by yourself, the atmosphere is nice and the vibes inside are cool. I got a chilled Ramen for lunch and it was so refreshing! The secret sauce is really good. And my server Tina was so helpful in making little decisions in my meal and recommending what was good, not to mention my food was served pretty quickly. all in all a great experience.

Madison our server was super kind and her service was 10/10. She made sure we were comfortable and had everything we need. She was also very quick. Great atmosphere. Will come again.

SAPPORO JAPANESE RESTAURANT REVIEWS

Excellent food, I came with my daughter and we loved everything we tried. This place is a hidden gem, I'm shocked it's not packed at every hour of operation, great food speaks for itself I suppose. Can't say it enough, fantastic food, my all time favorite sushi restaurant now.

Love the food. Good price point for quality. Good portion sizes so you're able to try a variety of things (if you're doing all you can eat). Servers were friendly and fast. The establishment was clean and the sitting areas were divided up. Food came out at a good pace, we however went when it wasn't too busy. Would definitely recommend, and will be coming back.

Bento box reasonably priced for the size shown. Food quality is good. Parking is limited.

KENZO RAMEN HAMILTON REVIEWS

By far the best Kenzo I have been too. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. Especially when talking allergies. The food is top notch for the price, which is always a win. I recently tried the takoyaki and 10/10 would recommend - even if you’re unsure of the ingredients (I was too) it was so yummy! This is my go to spot for gyoza and pick me up soup. My ramen looks plain but it’s because I don’t get any of the vegetables sometimes - they give a great portion of everything that is suppose to come with it.

I ordered king of kings ramen add fish cake and takoyaki today. Taste sooo good i very like a takoyaki and also king of kings ramen that a large portion. I cannot eat all in once so i have to separate for next meal.

Lovely and friendly staff! Great service and great food. Never have I walked out that door unsatisfied or ready ready to go into a food coma! Just be sure to go before the dinner rush, the seats fill up fast.
