Tenton

I ordered Fish katsu, the most popular is the pork one but I don't eat much pork. My order is crispy and taste good. The restaurant offers free refill salad and miss soup, kind nice thing. Just the salad dressing is not good. There is also a bottle of hand sanitizer on each table. The owner is very considerable. Overall this is a very good restaurant.

The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable. I liked the cherry blossom tree decor at the at the center of the restaurant. There were both regular dining tables as well as bar seats at the side of the kitchen. Server was nice on the phone when making reservation as well as very friendly during the visit. It's was very nice to have the options of Rosu loin and Hire fillet for all the Katsu main dishes, even the kid's menu. Curry was tasty and, like typical Japanese curry, it was mild in terms of spiciness. The dressing for the side salad was very good, I finished every single bit of it. The side miso soup was rich and delicious. The ramen was the thicker and curly type of noodle compared to the thinner and straight type servers in she ramen shop. I prefer the thicker type personally. The chashu was not too fat but still tender and juicy. We ordered the Black Ramen and it came with garlic slices/pieces, which added richer flavors to the bowl. The washroom was clean and is wheelchair accessible. We will definitely come back again and will recommend this restaurant.

Hire Katsu was amazing! Sauce was lovely, loved the cabbage salad, and rice refill was nice. My one issue: The smaller dark brown tables legs are too close together. The support underneath is also low and touching my thigh, very cramped, two people sitting beside each other are definitely touching legs or the chair beside. Try to get a light brown coloured table, it looks like there's better leg space.

Stopped in for lunch on a Saturday, Hire Katsu, chicken karage Katsu Curry and a Ramen. Excellent service. The pork Katsu was absolutely delicious; tender, moist and we'll flavoured and piping hot direct from the fryer. Very good rice, perfectly cooked. The ramen was also very good, nice texture to the noodles. I'd stick to the pork Katsu, the karage I had with the curry had been out of the fryer too long and gotten a bit greasy. I should mention the curry which was a little bit lighter take on Japanese curry which I really enjoyed instead of the glutinous mixture you sometimes get

Very cozy place with good service! The presentation of food is hearty. I have to say there are other katsu places where food is slightly better and cheaper, but this place’s decor and vibe are pleasant. Service is attentive too.

Pretty solid Japanese ramen restaurant in one of the nicest places in West Vancouver. This one is above average ramen place in any standard so definitely recommending this place but parking is little tricky so park by the ocean and walk up to the street. Service was fast and food came out pretty fast as well. We will return.

Hire katsu was crispy and delicious. I like the salad and the dressing. But the ramen was not that special.. the quality of noodle was just instant noodle. The taste of soup was okay, but it was artificially spicy. Ebi mayo was just ordinary. Some part of salad that was served with it was slightly rotten. But it was mixed with sauce so it was hard to tell. but I can definitely notice it in my mouth. I don't understand why the rating is so high. If I only tried Hire Katsu today, I would have given 4 stars. But the other cuisines are too bad to deserve more stars. I hope this restaurant can be more improved regarding the taste and the freshness of the ingredients.

i ordered the black garlic oil ramen w chicken. the garlic chips were SO burnt that it affected the entire taste of my broth, everything was harsh and bitter. if you’ve had a burnt garlic chip you’d know how awful it could taste. I came in at around 2/3 so it wasn’t too busy. the server was really nice but never checked up on me and was constantly hiding in the back. i got impatient so i continued to eat my ramen as it was getting colder and colder, i was starving that day and the server disappeared for a solid 10 minutes. super disappointed as this place has 4.5 stars.

Ordered cold soba noodle & hire tonkatsu combo and seafood yaki ramen. Adding chashu or karage does not come with seafood yaki ramen, so we added it with an extra charge. The food was awesome and delicious. Very crunchy and juicy tonkatsu with great sauce!

Friendly staff, quick service. Ramen was delicious. I like that the spicy miso ramen is actually a bit spicy, not like many other restaurants that I couldn’t taste the spicy at all. Ramen with karage chicken is definitely better than the chasu one. This can be my go to spot for ramen in West Van.
