Popular restaurant opens first franchised location in the GTA
Toronto, Ont. – KINTON RAMEN is excited to announce the soft opening of its King St. East location in Toronto.
Located at 40-351 King St. East, this is the first franchised KINTON RAMEN location in Toronto, now in its soft opening phase from 11:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. This launch responds to the rising demand for authentic Japanese cuisine in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
To mark the occasion, KINTON RAMEN is hosting a grand opening celebration on October 19th, where all dine-in customers can enjoy 50% off all ramen dishes.
“Over a decade ago, we opened our flagship location in downtown Toronto,” says Karalyn White, Senior Director of Franchising. “Since then, we’ve expanded our footprint across Canada into the United States. Opening our first franchised location in the same city where it all started feels not only fitting but also underscores the growing demand for an authentic ramen experience across North America.”
With more than 40 locations across Canada and the United States, KINTON RAMEN has attained a loyal following in major cities, including Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal, thanks to its innovative approach to ramen while honouring traditional recipes.
KINTON RAMEN began franchising in 2021 – nearly a decade after opening its first restaurant in downtown Toronto in 2012 – as part of its commitment to making its unique and exceptional dining experience accessible to everyone.
Toronto residents can enjoy a variety of classic ramen dishes, combo specials and seasonal offerings at the King East location, either by dining in or from the comfort of their homes. Seamless delivery and takeaway options are available through KINTON RAMEN’s online ordering platform at order.kintonramen.com, as well as Uber Eats and DoorDash.
