Kintaro Ramen788 Denman Street, Vancouver
Dirty and smelly
Submitted Monday, April 4, 2011 - 4:58am [Dine in]

Service?? I don't expect any decent level of service at an Asian restaurant in this price range. They take your order, bring your food and cheque. Nothing great, nothing wrong. I am fine with that.

Food?? Rich in flavour. But the stock/broth contains too much of that distinctive porky (not in a good way, almost fishy) smell. This is very typical of a pork stock and good chefs know how to minimize it. Unfortunately, Kintaro doesn't. The sliced pork meat (possibly leg or shoulder meat) used for garnish also contain too much of porky odour and it was cold to touch.
**When I say porky odour, it's different from appetizing odour from well-cooked good quality pork chop, bacon, pork belly or ribs.

Value?? More than reasonably priced with large portion sie.

Ambiance?? very basic and under-decorated. That's the whole point. It's like a friendly neighbourhood joint from somewhere in tokyo. But, the restaurant is dirty and smelly. I don't know where that smell's coming from. It smelled like a toilet. Period. Everything I touch was sticky. Yuck. Please clean the restaurant.
