Came back to visit our friends in Alpharetta and decided to go back to Jinya Ramen Bar and as before we're not disappointed. As before 3 of the 4 of our group had the Spicy Creamy V Ramen with chicken and all said it was fantastic. For myself, I tried the Spicy Chicken Ramen with chicken and my bowl was also fantastic! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service was spot on and the ambience is very chill & friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This time we had to sit at a high top in the bar area which was fine as it gave plenty of room for the meals and adult beverages.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you again for a fun time with awesome food! read more

JINYA Ramen Bar - Alpharetta - Ramen Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The environment was very polarizing. The tables were smushed close together (less than a foot between our table and the next) and there was an open wall to the kitchen, so you heard the noises from the kitchen.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I wasn't a fan, but I didn't take off any stars for it, since it's just preference and some people might like that. One thing I am taking a star for is the fact that the staff would all randomly yell in unison (like a cult) periodically throughout the meal. We asked our waiter at the end of our meal, and he said they yelled "welcome" in Japanese whenever a new patron walked in. To clarify, they didn't even look at the person entering when they did this, nor did they explain the term to anyone. Just the whole kitchen and staff yelling a random Japanese word periodically throughout the meal. Service was fast, we ordered at 6pm and received our food at 6:10. Waters refilled within 5-10 minutes of being empty. I ordered the JINYA chicken ramen (pictured), with low spice. The broth and noodles were delicious but the chicken didn't seem like it was seasoned at all. My sister had Tankatsu ramen red with 3/10 spice, she liked it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The chairs were comfortable enough and the bathroom was clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Excellent bar, restaurant and ramen in downtown Alpharetta. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Attentive staff, swanky interior and good ramen.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I am fan of Tonkotsu which was good. I like spicy and there were spiciest there to add. Pork gyoza was my appetizer. I didn't drink this time around but the bar is fully stocked...and they advertise The Happy Hour! The only issue I had is with ground pork which was not fine enough for my taste. read more

Been craving Ramen, which is hard to find in vegan form where we live. So, traveling allows for more exploration and options. Their menu photo on Yelp showed gluten free noodles, but their in person menu did not have that option. I inquired and was told the rice noodles are made with no gluten ingredients but are boiled in the same water as gluten noodles. That is usually ok for me so I ordered them. Our server was being trained and I assume it was one of his first days, as his trainer had to intercede several times and explain to us what he was saying. Hopefully it's only up from here for him! We ordered the edamame and it had very little salt on it, but when it was dropped off we were told we could ask for more salt. We didn't bother and I don't think we even finished them. We ordered the creamy vegan ramen. It was just "ok". It was very very salty and didn't have a lot of umami compared with many versions I've had. When we arrived we were put on a waiting list with a couple people in front of us. By the time we left the line was out the door. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was very traditional sushi bar decorated with booths and tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were offered a high top in the bar, with no wait, but chose to wait for a seat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The ramen here is consistently delicious, the service consistently great, and the restaurant consistently clean with the perfect ambience for a ramen bar. Our waitress checked up on us often, and the food came out quick and fresh. The Black Iced Tea is out of this world good, and so is the fried chicken- the best around. The ramen itself never fails to impress. Always good quality and quantity. Every visit here fills me up for the whole meal and the next. The Matcha Green Tea Tiramisu is heaven for all matcha lovers. Will be coming back! read more

Always the best ramen and they have the most variety of broths, besides the pork broth. I've been going to Jinya since their OG location was the only one and I'm so happy they have this location close to my house now! Hands down, best ramen! read more

We always have a wonderful time here and are provided with great service. It can be a bit slow when they are very busy but that's to be expected. We appreciate when our server isn't coming to check on us 17 times during out food so that we can enjoy the food and the company. They recently-ish changed their menu and took away the quinoa salad which is sad because now they don't offer any good lettuce, veggie, nutrition packed salad. I always get the spicy chicken ramen with medium spicy and broccolini on the side. Sometimes the broccolini can be burnt, though. For the most part, Jinya is a staple for when the whether gets cold and will always be our go-to ramen spot. read more

I got the birria ramen with tofu, it was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. My friend got the tan tan men ramen and I loved the spice level it came with. We both shared the edamame and ATE that like there was no tomorrow!. Our server Aaron was SO kind to us, honestly he's the goat, and that Brazilian hostess was SO sweet to us she made us laugh #baghooks! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We adored the vibe it's so chill and everything is so cute![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 10/10 me and my friend WILL come back! read more

We absolutely love JINYA Ramen Bar. No matter how busy they are (and they usually are, because it's that good), we're always seated in a timely manner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is on the smaller side, but it's run so efficiently.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food comes out perfect every single time -- they have never once messed up our order. Everything is consistently delicious, fresh, and exactly how it should be. On top of that, the customer service is amazing. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes the experience even better. We will always be returning and recommending JINYA to everyone we know. Truly a 5-star experience across the board. read more

I could eat ramen every single day, I truly love it that much (even in summer). Jinya is located right in the heart of downtown Alpharetta. Although parking can be limited, I've learned it's usually best to just park in the parking deck behind (near the library). The spicy chicken is my all time favorite, but all of their menu items are delicious! They even have some summer specials including cold ramen and refreshing drinks like the watermelon delight or the cucumber chiller. They have a long list of toppings you can add to your ramen such as seasoned egg, spicy bean sprouts, or bok choy, etc., and their seaweed salad is a great starter! The tempura Brussels sprouts are another favorite of mine. I'm sure it won't be long until I visit again! read more

Went for the second time and it was as delicious as the first time. I loved what I ordered the first time so why change it up. I added a better pic of the pork bun in the photos. Both times it was crowded which screams "super yummy food". Great ambiance, lively and great service. Free parking garage. I suggest getting on the waitlist as soon as you decide you want to go especially on the weekend evenings. There were other Ramen restaurant choices but I really love the choices here and I know I love the food. read more

Zach was the best. I arrived30 minutes before my party. Was allowed to sit with my drink and kept checking on me. My guest and I needed a relaxing meal. We were not rushed. Every detail was explained to my guest who never had ramen. I'm a ramen fan to the biggest degree...Last meal? Yes. I could say I would do a bowl of really good ramen. Theirs is the match. Red Tonkatsu with added mushrooms, extra egg, garlic and fried onion....supurb. Who knew tempura Brussels was a thing? It's a 45 minute drive. Let's got back tomorrow! read more

JINYA Ramen Bar - Alpharetta - Perfection. - Ramen Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Consistent and delicious! JINYA is a great place to grab ramen in downtown Alpharetta! It's located in a bustling area that's really walkable and right in the heart of downtown, with lots of things to do. The ambiance is super chill and trendy, and the staff are friendly! My favorite dish there has got to be one of their appetizers, the JINYA bun! The pork inside simply melts in your mouth with the delicious aioli and crisp lettuce, and the bao is just so soft and pillowy. Their ramen is top notch as well and portions are great! I got the chicken chashu bowl for the first time when I visited recently and it was delicious! Highly recommend! read more

The broth for the original tonkatsu ramen was very flavorful, a rich and porky broth that coats thick perfectly cooked noodles. While I enjoy the flavor of the ramen here, there are limited toppings without an extra charge. If you choose to dine in, be warned that it can get crowded and sometimes too loud from the combination of a crowded small space and loud music. I enjoy the ramen here but I think there's other places that I would pick over Jinya if I want a less overstimulating experience with equally good flavors and quality. read more

Soooo. God forbid that my friend that actually used the Yelp waitlist app got quoted a different wait time from our other friend that just went and put her name on the waitlist. Yes, we know how amazing the waitlist can be. But to be told the waitlist time doesn't matter and that it was wrong, for it to actually work the way it's supposed to? Wow! Zanid (sp) the hostess was very snotty about this and was very surprised that we were able to sit down before she thought we were going to. Mind you there were several open tables in the restaurant at the time. What saved this visit is the food and service after we were sat. Our dishes were delicious-I had the tempura Brussel sprouts and chicken ramen (as it is on the menu). I also had a lycheetini which was okay but sweeter than I am used to. read more

While in Georgia, I went to this Ramen restaurant and tried this ramen. I dont always eat professionally made Ramen, however, this was very delicious.

On a chilly day, I stumbled upon this cozy and inviting little ramen bar. From the moment we stepped in, the hosts made us feel welcome and seated us right away. The waitress was prompt and very friendly, quickly taking our orders. I ordered the Tonkotsu Black, and let me just say--the broth was absolutely incredible! I haven't found anything like it anywhere else. We also tried the shrimp wonton and the Spicy Chicken ramen, both of which were equally delicious. The portions were generous and just right to leave us fully satisfied. I would definitely go back anytime! read more

They have amazing customer service and very friendly! I enjoyed the food it had many varieties and a lot of amazing flavors very yummy!!!

It can be super busy on weekend nights, but it's worth the wait. My partner and I joined the wait list and ended up waiting longer than the projected window, but it was no big worry since we just went to have a drink next door while we waited. Typically the wait times are equal or lesser than projected, so they can be relied on. The food is phenomenal (and reheats well) with very large portions and a lot of options. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It can be bustling and slightly loud, but not any meaningful degree louder than other restaurants in the area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]You don't need to raise your voice to be heard.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My partner and I will be regulars since the service is well paced (Even on slammed nights like Fridays and Saturdays), the food is consistently amazing, and the price is within a sustainable range for routine date nights. read more

Visited Jinya for a lovely lunch with a friend. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Easy to find parking, ambiance was serene, clean and comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were seated immediate by our lovely informative hostess. Our questions were answered regarding menu options, and our food came out as ordered. Ramen was heavenly, with yummy thick noodles and a deep rich broth. Our chicken was also out of this world. Great go to place for Ramen! read more

Alpharetta downtown has a nice ramen place and heaven for vegan people. The spicy levels are asked before ordering ramen for non vegan dishes and they are really spicy so think about it before saying 6 The vegan appetizer are just yum.

Absolutely amazing experience. The octopus balls were incredible, crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside, easily some of the best I've had. The ramen was rich, and full of flavor. On top of the great food, the service was outstanding. Our server was the manager, Moses (great name ) You can tell he really cares about the place and the customers. I'll definitely be recommending this spot. read more

A restaurant that we frequent regularly unfortunately was quite disappointing today. I commonly order the kids chicken meal with no problem but today they considered it unacceptable. The waitress told me she had to ask the manager then the manager looked at me funny and said that meal is for kids. He then said he would ask the GM. He came back out and said they will do it this one time and walked away. Looks like this may be the last time we come to this location. The customer service is severely lacking. read more

Really enjoy the food here.. Staff were a little serious. They don't have much energy but I guess that's OK. They come off kind of monotone. A smile would've been nice other than that. The place was a great atmosphere love the vibe love they are on the wall. The menu is easy to understand. read more

If my mom didn't absolutely love Jinya's ramen I would never go back to this location. The one in Sandy springs is more forgiving. The server practically ignored us. Our food constantly sat at the service window. A couple dishes actually came out cold, and when I complained the manager just said to be patient. Seriously y'all get a 0 in service! Honestly the day we went my table was the only table of color. I hate to make it a race thing, but our server actually smiled at all her other tables and even though we were ahead the other tables. The other tables got served their food first. I swear if it weren't for my mom's birthday I'd left. Lets talk about the food now. 1) The jalapeño corn came so freaking late, that the hot plate the corn was on lost its sizzle. I didn't enjoy it. It was so bad cold greasy, and tasteless. I didn't even want a picture. 2) The vegan ramen was great & packed with flavor. The chili oil was the piece de resistance! Vegan ramen came luke warm & Kae Dama noodles sat at the window by the time it came the broth and noodles turned cold 3) The chicken wonton ramen came luke warm. It needed more spice, the broth was your standard shoyu broth. The ramen came so late the wontons did start to get soggy. 4) The kids meal Karage was great, nice and juicy. Would be better if it came warm. The kids ramen was again cold, but your standard shoyu broth. The kids chasu rice bowl was wet soggy and not warm. But it had a nice flavor. 5) the only I wont complain about is the tako yaki, maybe because it was the only thing that came warm. The flavors were there, the generous amount of sauce. The outer ball shell was nice and crispy. Honestly if this came cold it would've gotten soggy and straight up nasty. The best part of this was the cream on the bottom of the Tako Yaki. 6) Carmel Pana cotta, this came via manager so the ice cream didn't melt thankfully. The toffee sponge pieces were quite peculiar, but I enjoyed the flavor with the caramel and ice cream. I'd like to clarify, that the taste of the food was purely an solely affected by the terrible server, who brought it to us late and cold. I am sure the chefs at Jinya are very skilled and talented. However, I will not be coming back to this location read more
