Location/Service
Right in the plaza of Commerce Gate, a lot of parking available and underground as well. Note the restaurant is around the corner, facing Highway 7.
The interior is consistent with all of their other locations. Bright lightning with bar tables and good size small tables as well. I'm surprised it's bigger than I thought and more spacious as well.
Service is nice, staff are friendly and very welcoming. Also check on you regularly to make sure everything is okay.
Food
They amped up the menu a little bit by offering Markham location menu items and monthly specials.
Decided to try their December special, which was the Burnt Kogashi Shoyu-men. It's a soy based broth with thick noodles, pork shoulder and belly that's slightly burnt and bean sprouts.
Kinton's broth is usually a little fattier in my personal opinion, and this one was the same as well. Not it's a bad thing, but it does feel a little oily.
Cha su wise was okay, they only have 2 slices and I thought it was not enough (maybe I was way too hungry). Noodles were nice to eat with and the veggies were quite complimentary. Note there is no egg, so you can add it for $1.50.
Overall, it's an okay spot for quick ramen. The service and food is consistent and similar to their other locations.
