Kimonos Ramen & Poké

Driven by this place a few times and decided to give it a try. Very beautiful decor and excellent service. The presentation of the food was beautiful!! The chicken Karaage was done perfectly.. crispy, juicy and full of flavor. The Rainbow Poke was huge and had very good flavors and all ingredients were super fresh. Unfortunately the Cha Su Ramen and Dan Dan were quite bland... was that a one off??.... will have to try again in the future and see. Enjoy.

Wife and I decided to try this place for dinner because we love Ramen. Note that is this NOT your traditional Ramen house. The decor is very modern which is nice but I noticed that some of the tables which were empty where filthy with food and whatnot. The service was so-so. When we sat ourselves down we waited for at least 5-10 min until the waiter asked if we have been served. We ordered our food. Wife asked for the Pork Ramen with no corn and I ordered the DanDan since I've never tried it before. When the food finally arrived the presentation was really nice but my wife's dish had corn in it and it tasted pretty bland. The pork was mostly fat too and needed more cooking time which was disappointing, though the DanDan was pretty good since this was the first time I've had it. Suffice to say we will not be going back to this place and we don't recommend it to Ramen lovers like us.

Went for lunch, right during the 12-1pm lunch hour. It took a long time to be seated. The waitress was great, but there was only one and I believe she had too many tables to take care of. I had the beef gyoza and it was nice, but not exceptional. I also had the pork ramen with original broth, and again, it was fine, but not exceptional. The flavours were soft and not terribly complex or rich. A nice warm soup on a cold day. If I go back I’ll definitely try the poke bowl, but I wouldn’t order the ramen again.

Deco: 5 Service:5 Food: 3 Like other commenters pointed out, the deco and service is on point. However the food is not good. Cha Shu Ramen $18 is salty and tasted like watered down frozen ramen pack. The rice in the rainbow poke bowl $26 is very hard. Sauce on shrimp tempura made it very salty. The chef needs to fix his recipes especially on the salt use or else I don’t see how this place would last.

Look out, Ottawa; There's a new Dan Dan noodle king in town! It was not only the most visually pleasing dish a surprise since we had it delivered, but it was absolutely delicious. Can't wait to try it fresh.

Nice atmosphere. The server was friendly. Unfortunately, the taste of the dishes did not match their presentation. The chashu in the ramen was not braised well enough as the meat was still very tough and chewy. The sushi rice in the poké bowl was over seasoned with vinegar making the rice taste very sour.

Amazing service! Top notch waitress who checked up on us regularly. Food was pretty delicious and the vibe was exactly what we would expect. Absolutely worth a visitFood: 5/5

Had a fantastic meal! Ramen was so delicious we ordered meals to go for the next day. Take-out packaged very thoughtfully for re-heating and not going mushy. Priced such that a once per week+ Yup, definitely + regular visit very affordable. My new fave! Parking: Convenient parking

We're still dreaming about those delicious Inari Bombs and will definitely be doubling our order next time! The Chicken Karaage was also delicious. We ordered one original chicken, and one miso chicken soup and both were presented beautifully. The eggs were perfectly done, the noodles had a perfect chewiness and the broth was very tasty. A delightfully affordable experience and we will definitely be returning!

I was reallllly hoping this would be our new go to place for ramen since it is so close to our house. But sadly it is not. I did a pick up order yesterday. The restaurant itself is beautiful with very nice decor. However, the ramen itself fell short in my opinion. I got the pork ramen—I did not find the broth to be very rich, the pork was tough and the noodles were disappointing. I got my husband the Kimono one with a bit of everything —he liked it, but agreed he’s had better. Our 3 year old was happy with the extra noodles and broth we ordered. I would still like to go back and dine in to try their poke another time, and hope it is much better than their ramen.
