Since travelling to Japan a few years ago, I have been on an obsessive hunt for the city's best ramen noodles. My fiance and I have tried a bunch of different restaurants within the GTA but so far, no luck. We heard about Kenzo's from a family member and suggested we give the place a shot. Why not, what's the harm in trying?
First off, the parking for this place is very limited but don't let this deter you from visiting. Actually, one of the main reasons why I hadn't eaten here before is because of the terrible parking situation. Never again will I let parking be the deciding factor of where to eat. Good food is worth the effort!
As we entered the restaurant it had a very good atmosphere. They have done a great job of making the place resemble that of a restaurant in Japan. I kind of felt like I was back on my vacation the moment we sat down at our table.
The service was good but nothing special. The waitress simply brought us water, took our order and served the food. Typically, Japanese restaurants do a great job of greeting customers as they enter the front door but this place didn't. Either way, I'm not picky about service in general so don't let this stop you from eating here.
Now for the most important part - the food. I wasn't expecting the world as I've already been disappointed by so many ramen places in the city. My fiance and I ordered the same thing which happened to be a basic bowl of ramen - just like they do it in Japan! The portion size was very generous and the price was extremely affordable - only $6.95. After tasting the first bite of ramen I was thoroughly surprised! They actually got the texture of a ramen noodle right! I'll be honest, it wasn't perfect, but pretty damn close. My fiance agreed that this place had great ramen and she's just as picky as I am. We concluded that we would put this in our top 3 ramen places within the GTA. Not too shabby!
It's unfortunate that we still haven't been able to find a place that cooks ramen like they do in Japan. However, maybe it's not realistic to expect this of our city?
Kenzo, give yourself a pat on the back. So far you have done the best job of satisfying our quest for the perfect ramen!
Happy Eating!
