KOKORO JAPANESE RAMEN - KELOWNA: Reviews & Ratings
The Tamago ramen was prepared just right. The gyoza were crisp and balanced, which I appreciated more than I expected. Staff engaged when required and avoided unnecessary interaction, which I consider an efficient use of everyone's time. Food arrived promptly, mildy surprise at how quick it was in front of me. This is a dependable place for ramen. Four stars feels appropriate, both for the quality and for the possibility that they may somehow improve further, despite already performing at a level that makes that seem unlikely.
Absolutely loved this place! The ramen was flavorful, rich, and perfectly balanced — you can tell the broth is made with care. The noodles had a great texture, and the toppings were fresh and generous. The pork chashu melted in my mouth, and the soft-boiled egg was cooked to perfection. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the cozy atmosphere made it a great spot to relax and enjoy a warm bowl. Will definitely be coming back soon
I ordered spicy chicken ramen (not in the menu), and they did it for me! The ramen was incredibly salty, but I should have mentioned it earlier. I didn’t dare to say anything until they asked about the food. I really appreciate their attention to detail. When they acknowledged that the soup was salty, they apologized with a matcha ice cream, which was very thoughtful. Overall, the food was great!
Best katsu curry I’ve ever had!! Savoured every last bite! The strawberry Kokoro refresher was amazing as well! They’ve got new Hokkaido ice cream which was so light and perfect! Super friendly and welcoming staff too! This was our second time coming here and we love it even more! We’re definitely gonna be coming back lots!
One of the best Mazesoba spots I’ve ever been to. Honestly, better than the one I had in Vancouver. Food is amazing! Atmosphere is great! Very clean and friendly staff. Highly recommend giving it a try if you’re in the area! Love the food! Great food after our Hiking experience from Knox Mountain. Only few minutes away, so satisfying. We had the Deluxe Mazesoba with Beef and it was amazing. Their tiramisu dessert is a must try too and their refreshing drinks!
I saw a few videos of people saying to try this place as it has the best ramen so we decided to try it. Wanted something light, and this was the perfect place. The flavour in the food was incredible and I would highly recommend this place.
SO good! I hit gold the first time I was here and ordered the Szechuan Mala Ramen… now I’m obsessed. Chicken Karaage and Gyozas were also excellent as a starter with friends. If you haven't been. This is your sign!
Delish!! I got the Deluxe Mazesoba with pork. SO GOOD. Different than any Japanese noodles I’ve had soo far. So rich and flavorful! I was too full for the free rice at the end for your sauce but I bet it would be amazing. I will be coming back
