Kintaro Ramen

If I had infinite money I would order ramen from here several times a week. The prices are wonderful for the quality of the ramen, and the broth has a very rich flavor with very complimentary vegetables and meats. My go-to is the Karashimiso, which is so unbelievably good that I can't stop going back. I've been consistently getting ramen here for almost two years and still haven't found a better place. The employees are also very friendly and helpful 💙 the okonomi fries are also super good and fairly priced.

Just tried Kintaro Ramen and yeah… this place is legit 🔥 The ramen came out looking as good as it tastes — rich broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and those soft-boiled eggs were on point. You can tell they care about quality here, everything was dialed in. Only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is the pricing — it’s just a couple bucks more than similar spots I’ve been to with equal (or slightly better) quality. BUT for Arlington? This is about as good as it gets. Still 100% worth it, and I’ll definitely be back. Perfect late-night spot too if you’re craving something solid after 9pm. Highly recommend 👍

Absolutely loved my experience at Kintaro Ramen! The food was amazing and full of flavor, especially the broth—it really stood out as rich and well-balanced. Everything tasted fresh and came out hot and well-prepared. The service was also great, with everything running smoothly and the staff being attentive without making the experience feel rushed. The atmosphere is casual but still really enjoyable, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. Overall, it’s definitely one of the better ramen spots I’ve tried. I’ll for sure be coming back again and recommending it to others!

🍜 Friday Night Ramen Run — Review We stopped by right before the ice storm on a Friday night, and the place was completely empty — it honestly felt like we had it all to ourselves. With the cold weather rolling in, ramen was exactly what we needed, and it absolutely hit the spot. Both bowls were rich, comforting, and full of flavor — the kind of meal that warms you up from the inside out. What we ordered: 🍜 Karashi Tonkotsu (Mild) — $15.00 ➕ Extra Chashu — $2.00 • Creamy broth with a subtle kick, super satisfying 🍜 Miso Ramen — $17.00 • Deep, savory flavor and very filling Overall: Great spot for a cozy ramen night, especially when the weather is cold. No wait, calm atmosphere, and solid bowls all around. We’d definitely come back.

I FINALLY got here! I 1st saw a news feature on Kintaro a few years ago & saved it to visit. Well it took years but it was worth the wait and hour long drive! I have the vegetarian ramen and the flavors were amazing! It was comfort food in a ramen! My daughter had a spicier bowl and she really enjoyed hers (not sure the name but see the pic). The appetizer- the dumplings, were served with soy sauce- they were so flavorful, the soy sauce was unnecessary! Definitely give them a try. I'm don't have a background in traditional ramen (my 1st nonAmerican experience was in South Korea and it definitely was not as amazing as this!) but I think people who enjoy ramen would definitely like this!
