Food was great. Service was great. We had the:- Jinya classic ramen- jinya black ramen- fried chicken- salad- chicken rice bowlEverything was solid. I think the ramen was the standout dish.
This location looks and feels young and hip (lots of tables, bar seating, interior design vision), so I was a touch skeptical about how it would perform on a midweek lunch. Fear unfounded, the Tonkotsu Black is flawlessly executed with a fantastic balance of cream and salty richness. Great service and plenty of menu options are a bonus. Also the most corn I've ever seen when ordered as an addon for ramen.
This place is a gem!! Their food is amazing and perfectly cooked! Quick service and very friendly staff. I’ll definitely be returning! I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy some fresh ramen!
I came to this place by random coincidence (my other favorite ramen shop in Tustin was also open but I hadn't tried this one yet so I decided to give it a shot). I had the JINYA Tonkotsu Original 2010 and let me tell you, it was mind-bendingly good. The server was courteous, attentive and nice and the service was quick and accurate. I've dubbed Ramen "the only soup worth eating" and this place has helped me further cement that bias. いただきます！
I give the ramen five stars. Broth is cooked to perfection. Crispy chicken and tempura brussel sprout appetizers are amazing. The waiter and server were very attentive. Overall, I give it four stars because the hostess was basically rude and seemed annoyed by our presence. The music was about 10 decibels too loud, had to shout to talk to our guests sitting directly across from us. Felt like a nightclub rather than a restaurant. Don't go here if you want a romantic meal or to gather among friends to visit. Go here just for the food.
Truly delicious! We came for the vegan ramen, and it did not disappoint! It all had so much flavor! I had the Flying Vegan Harvest without chili oil, and it was very yummy. I never finish a whole bowl of ramen but I certainly did this time. My boyfriend had the Spicy Creamy Vegan Ramen and added Impossible meat to it. I do not do spicy at all, and I even loved his dish. The flavor was amazing but it didn't burn my mouth at all or fill me with regret. We also had the caramelized cauliflower and that was a yummy side. I would love to eat in the restaurant next time since the dishes are so fancy, although I wouldn't choose a busy Friday night. The takeout packaging was cardboard and plastic in a paper bag, and I was very thankful to have zero styrofoam because I wouldn't have eaten here if they used that. Last thing I'll say is we've tried vegan ramen before and it's never filling and always bland. This is the first time the flavor was all there and we were left satisfied. Can't wait to go back and hopefully see an even bigger vegan menu next time!
Love the vegan ramen here. They have 3 options for vegan ramen. I love the Spicy Creamy Rame the most. But tgis time, I ordered the Tsunami White Pearl and my husband ordered the Flying Vegan Harvest. Soup is so delicious and flavorful. My son ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen and he said it is the best and won't mind returning here again although it is like 20 mins drive for us from Irvine to here.
Believe it or not, our seven-year-old grandson introduced us to JINYA Ramen Bar. In the past year, he’s become an expert on all things Ramen, and lately, JINYA is his go-to spot when he craves ramen, which is every day. “You’ve got to try this”, he told us grandparents two weeks ago, and so we did. So far, he’s “taken us” twice since introducing JINYA, and we’ll probably go again this week. The kind, friendly, and attentive staff are calm—never rushing around—and the choices they’ve recommended (along with my grandson’s) have been delicious and generous. Highly recommend.
Delicious food, the atmosphere is great here. The service was excellent. Overall experience was awesome, can't wait to come back.
Very very good food
