Kinboshi Ramen opened on SE Ankeny Street in 2016, bringing recipes from Japan and introducing Portland to Hakata-style ramen. The tonkotsu red spicy bowl — rich pork bone broth with chashu pork, seasonal vegetables, and a soft-boiled egg — anchors the menu, alongside starters like spicy chicken karaage.
Over time the kitchen added a hand-crafted vegan ramen developed from customer requests, a dish that has become a point of distinction since few other ramen shops in Portland offer a comparable vegan version. The restaurant continues to expand its offerings, including additional vegan dishes, from its Southeast Portland location.
