Food was meh. Service was poor and inattentive. Had to ask for same thing multiple times. Ambiance is bleh. I would not come back. Even if this is the only ramen place in the area. Venture out and visit Kinton or probably another place for a better experience.

Kenzo Ramen is our go to spot for Ramen, definitely not a fine dine Ramen place but very good. Based on our experience, on cold days it gets very busy around dinner time so we either arrive early or after peak dinner time. Lots of options to choose from including customizations for vegetarian dishes. Food: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 (the servers take a while to come back and check in on you) Ambience: 3/5 ( nothing to rave about, but a nice pencil graffiti on one the walls) Seating: 3/5 (a little weird arrangement with some tables on a raised area and one table feels like its in a pit, completely separated from all other tables) Restrooms:3/5 Have good experience at Kenzo always and is one of the best Ramen in town. Owners are nice.

I go there with friends every once in a while, the restaurant is a great place to hang out and catch up with friends.

We ordered Netsu Ramen and katsu kare. These food are too salty. My tongue is numb. Can't eat these. I added full bowl of water to the broth, but it's still salty .. they shouldn't make food like this. Seriously harmful for health.

Had a wonderful lunch. Veggies were fresh and crunchy. Broth full of flavour. Noodles perfectly cooked. Neat and clean place. Servers were very friendly and prompt service. Will visit again.

We went again today. The ramen is pretty good. There are varieties for you to choose. Although the decorations are kind of wear, we enjoy the food and the cozy atmosphere. I'm so disappointed that we visited on Monday and found that the restaurant actually closes on Monday to Wednesday. It's amazing how a restaurant only runs 4 days in a week.

Noodles aren't as good/chewy as I remember. Black garlic didn't have enough black garlic and flavour as compared to other restaurants. The tonkotsu broth is very good, thick and rich. Atmosphere needs a little something, not sure what. Service was great but debit/credit wasn't working during my visit.

This was my first time trying this establishment. I had the spicy orochong ramen with sliced chicken. It was light on the chicken but heavy on the salt. The noodles and the veggies were good. I dont know that I would get this bowl again if this is the amount of chicken that comes with it (maybe 5-6 thin slices - basically what you can see from the picture is the chicken that was in it). The inside is probably due for a bit of a facelift. Its old and everything is sticky. Overall I think the place has potential and Ill try something different next time. It wasnt too expensive - $16 for my bowl. Hopefully whatever I try next time isnt and salty as this bowl was.

I understand there is a pandemic. But the price is high and serving just gets less and less. Even asked me if I needed cutlery. I said yes. After spending close to $140. There was no cutlery in the bag. Maybe an honest mistake. but it was disappointing. We were regulars there before the pandemic even if the price is a bit high. Update 2024. Went back and food was good but serving got even smaller for the price. It was a more healthier option. But value wise I most likely wont return.

November 22, 2024

Gave this place a try. My friend had this ramen which is so salty feels like its a mix rather than an actual broth. Had the tonkatsu curry which was served with lumps and a bit cold. Pork cutlet is hard as well as if it was just re-fried all over. For the price, not worth it.

We Come here at least twice a month!! We love the taste of the ramen BUT unfortunately the service is so bad, it wasnt that bad when I used to see the owner around! But right now they dont care... Food is late never at the same time for the whole table, ramen sometimes is hot other times is warm and the worst part is that it depends on who is serving the amount you get! In good days you get a lot of soup, other days like today it was literally the smallest amount of soup I have ever received in a ramen place I visited. Is sad because we used to love this place, but after today we totally decided to look for another one. Ohh an also they have this Japanese cheesecake, we wanted to try but no one came to our table after finishing our meal (not ever 30 min after finishing) is impossible to order something else.

Meh. I love ramen and unfortunately this is the only option in Oakville. The ramen is barely ok, the gyosas a bit greasy. The breaded pork feels just out of the freezer, rice is bland. The lack of care just seems to be part of the experience, from the plates to the music to the washrooms. If you are determined to get ramen it does the job (barely) but if you drive to the Burhamthorpe location in M/auga and don t mind waiting for a table, the food is way better.

Pricey + might not be worth it for vegetarians: I would say that this place isnt the best for vegetarians because there arent many options. They charge you the same price as the items with meat, but dont allow for substitutions for tofu instead of the meat. I got a spicy ramen dish and found the soup to be tasty, but there werent enough veggies in there, which I found frustrating, considering I paid for a meat dish, got no tofu as a substitution with limited veggies. The service wasnt the best either.

No doubt the quality of the ramen is one of the best in town especially the three levels spicy Chai Siu ramen, recommend for level two as it will sure warm you up in winter.

Called to make sure they have vegan dishes, specifically asked for vegan noodles and they said yes, noodles are not a problem. Waited 50min in line to be seated, once seated they said they have only egg noodles, we had to leave as they had no substitutions.

December 22, 2023

Whatever the relationship this has to the excellent location that was near Square One in Mississauga, lower your expectations significantly. My water glass wasnt properly cleaned, and still had lip smudges from the previous owner. I politely pointed this out and requested another, only to be brought the same dirty glass. The 2/3 of the gyoza had pink, raw ground meat centers to them. My wifes pork based ramen broth tasted fishy for no discernable reason. We had such high hopes, only to be met with all of this...

Food wise, Kenzo never disappoints. The service here was lacking something to be desired however. The servers seemed uninterested in doing their jobs, which points to poor management. Our mains showed up before the apps did, and we had to ask for cutlery and water. They were busy right after we arrived but I have seen other busier locations do a better job.

Busy, small Korean run Ramen restaurant with a good variety of ramen flavors with small portions. The food: The Tonkotsu ramen I got was nicely flavored, the noodles were perfectly cooked. Toppings were on the skimpish side considering the price point. Portions were also way off for the price point as well. My 5 year old was able to finish the regular size ramen, so you can imagine it not being enough for an adult. The bowls look regular sized but are shallow so doesnt hold much. The atmosphere: The restaurant was clean, open and nicely decorated with art. The restaurant was busy on Saturday for lunch and was lively. The service: Nothing fancy, after the food was served I dont think the server came back at all. If you want to spend $20 on a bowl of ramen this is the place for you. I know inflation is raising the prices for everything but that seems like a little too much for the amount of food that youre getting.

Among the best places to have ramen in Oakville. The quality of food is excellent. You will have to wait for about 10 minutes before being seated if you arrive at the peak dinner time starting 7:00 pm. Also the orders takes time to be served. Some orders with a price change might not reflect the photo in the menu. Ask about the portion of appetizers and don t take the photo for granted.

Went in May 2023. Absolutely delicious spicy char-su ramen and the staff were attentive in alerting the spiciness of the item and generous with substituting food options. Also tried the food the rest of my group had and the broth was not excessively oily or salty compared to some other ramen restaurants. Pricing was reasonable in this day and age of inflation. Vibes were nice and has a lot of interesting artwork. Customers continued to roll in even during minutes upon closing time. I would recommend more to come to this place, as we will be back in the future!

Probably the worst Ive had a restaurant, period. It was a Sunday night and I waited 55 minutes! for 2 bowls of ramen and an app and when I asked what was going on with my food they couldnt give me a straight answer.

Went to this location to do take out. Door is stuck from opening, almost thought they were closed. Smokey when entering. Ordered ramen. Got home to see this stingy amount of broth served as seen in the picture. $16 pre-tax premium priced noodles. The one in mississauga or even kinton doesnt serve this conservative. If you want ramen, Avoid this place and go elsewhere. If you dont know better, visit this place.

Did you fish through my bowl to know its only one piece of plastic in my bowl? Its been stewing in there...boiled plastic..yum. very unprofessional! Waiters stand around as you have to yell for service. Owner seems to not care at all. On his cell phone mainly. The food tasted decent but due to such horrible service we are not going back.

Easily, the best ramen place around. Way better than Kinton ramen and mystic ramen in hamilton. I always make the drive out to oakville just to eat here. Dont listen to these people complaining about service. They have like 2 servers on shifts. If you come at a peak time and are too afraid to ask for service, thats a YOU problem. If youre looking for good authentic japanese ramen; this is one of the best.

This has to be one of the worst Kenzo ramen shops the servers were the only nice part of my experience. the kitchen outright refused to adjust my ramen. I have never had a problem with this from class at any other Ramen shop. It s equivalent of asking for your noodles to be al dente. I just prefer not to have overcooked noodles. So to the server thank you but the kitchen done you bad. Thanks for trying.

Place looks nice, small but cozy. Plenty of parking. Staffs are friendly. Service can be a bit slow. Taste isn t too great compared to other branches. Broth isn t too rich, It seems they ve been boiled fast at high heat instead of low and longer boil. Noodle is t to flavourful as well.

Ive been to both Torontos Momofuku noodle bar and Kenzo Ramen, and was surprised to find that Kenzos ramen was better than Momofukus. Ive been at Kenzos a couple of times and everything Ive eaten is delicious. There are a lot of different ramen options, so Im going back!

Update: Reducing by one star. They need to rename to KenSLOW ramen. Took 30 minutes to produce a bowl yesterday during an non busy time. Also witnessed a careless waitress slosh hot broth onto a customer and despite the profuse apologies, didnt even offer them anything to compensate. Previous review: I like that compared to their Mississauga location, this one is roomier and less crowded. The wait staff was very attentive. The kitchen is in the back instead of being showcased up front and so the ambiance is much quieter. I ordered their spicy ramen and chicken karagi. Portions where generous, but it seemed different in flavor than their other location. I would assume that they use the same recipe for broth, but somehow, it wasnt what I expected. Couldve just been an off day. Will visit again to check out their other ramen basis to see and will update this review if Im corrected.

I dont understand how a business can survive being open one day a week on Thursdays this makes no sense. Your guyss hours were ridiculous before being closed Monday Tuesday Wednesday but this is insane. Your ramen is amazing and its always well cooked even take out is great but come on guys... You got to do better.

It s the only Kenzo Ramen I know in Oakville and it s horrible. The broth is not flavourful taste watery and lacking taste, amounts of broth given are absolutely hilarious looked like the souse for my noodles didn t even cover them fully! The noodles are also not tasty at all just in all around terrible takeout experience every time! We go to a place in Mississauga kamen ramen it s absolutely amazing and worth the drive!!! When calling to complain they basically said ok yea we ll take your name and credit you extra broth like are you a joke?!? Don t go here if you want good food or service ! Picture of container of liquid I got .

We used to go to this restaurant before pandemic. Food was excellent before. Now the food taste different. We got spicy charsiu ramen and the noodle like store bought ramen. The soup also blend. Charsiu was hard and not tasty, taste just like boiled meat. Vegetable only cabage and bean sprouts. for $17.00 +tax per bowl, the portion is very less. Not impressed.

We ordered Spicy Charshu Ramen and Yakisoba along with Karaage and all the things were amazing. Taste, texture and plating were also very good. Even the staff is very humble and courteous. Definitely worth another visit soon.

Great restaurant if you are not familiar with Japanese food and you havent tried it . 6.5 to 7 if youre familiar with it and you had tried the real deal.

Food is good here but the service is awful. We have been seated there for 15mins with no water or menu. The restaurant was not that busy but the waiter still found no time to take care of us. I have been to this restaurant for 2 times and they forgot my order EVERYTIME! I was seating there still when all my friends had finished their food. No one checked on me until I asked the waitress where was my order. She has to double check and found out my order was missed AGAIN!

Passing grade and that s about it. The broth based soup just wasn t fatty or homey enough in comparison to all the other ramen I ve had. Decent portion and prices, but nothing out of the ordinary. Egg was not a marinated, just a simple boiled egg, and they were pretty light on the toppings. Asked for an extra an egg and it was left out from my bowl, but wasn t left out of my bill. Overall, not terrible, but I m not dying to come back.

Its a small place in a great location. Food was tasty and prices arent bad but service took way too long just for some Ramen! I think I wanted about 40 minutes . Place was pretty full and it seems they had a lot of take out orders which they seem to be more focused on. If they improve the service speed, it would be a really nice place to grab some warm Ramen

I am giving it 5 starts because of the food and one young fellow who worked there and did his best to give us great service. Another fellow who worked there didnt seem to want to be there. But in the end, the food prevailled! And always delicious!

We ordered the tonkatsu king ramen and the broth was blend beyond belief. The broth is clearly watered-down from the manufacturer . Typically the chain ramen places order large cans of pre-made soup from suppliers, so the flavour is not comparable to the authentic ramen places. But to further water down the soup base makes it worse. We told the waiters about the tasteless soup, and nothing was done about it ( owner or chef did not do or say anything). My family and I have been long term customers at this spot but will never go back again. We will only stick to authentic places who actually care about their quality and customers.

Awesome Noodles and Soup! The ingredients, food and taste of the broth hit all the flavor spots. This place is worth trying out if you are a fan of ramen. If you do want to visit this place please plan your day and be prepared for a long wait. The service is excruciatingly slow! It took us upwards of 50 mins to get just two soups delivered to our table.

December 22, 2022

The food taste like sadness. Completely ruined my day. In the chicken egg rice, the chicken taste like pre cooked and sit there for long hours, and the egg is overcooked, which is supposed to be running liquid. The meat in ramen is not pork belly, but a more tastless part of the pig, and it is not torched or fryed. The flavor of the soup is super familiar if you know what I mean. Overall, cheap ingredient, and cooked carelessly. I dont why people still coming to this place.

Food was great. I had the black Tonkatsu with spice level 3. It was sooo good. Only thing is that the wait time is crazy. I ordered and it came 30 mins later.
