Otherwise, nothing special. The presentation was quite nice though.\n\nAmbiance 2.5/5 (10% of final grade)\nUsually I like places that are culturally fueled. I think Kinton attempts to portray the traditional ramen shop feeling, but because of the little tweaks they did to market to the Canadian demographic, it didn't feel fully authentic, per-say. This location was also particularly cramped. However, do keep in mind that it was lunch hour and in the dead of summer when I went, so my perception might be skewed. \n\nService 3/5 (10% of final grade)\nThe waitress took our order and left, simple, no-frills service. But it was very cool to have the chefs (open kitchen) occasionally chant something in Japanese while they passionately toss the noodles-- it contributed to the homeliness of the entire vicinity. \n\nCost 2.5/5 (10% of final grade)\nNothing to comment about the price-- it was appropriate.\n\nBrownie Points 2.5/5 (10% of final grade)\nFor the nice try of the chefs.\n\nFinal Grade = 57/100 = 3 Stars\n\nTLDR: Average price for heavy-tasting-but-nicely-presented ramen. Not something I'd soon crave."^^ . . "0"^^ . "3"^^ .
