    I had to have Ramen.
    D. K. C.

    I was finally ready to try ramen and I had no idea where to go. Furthermore, I had no idea what I wanted to eat. I asked my Yelpers how to choose a ramen dish, then it came time to choose a location. As I was in the Buckhead area, I texted my brother who I know eats ramen and asked him where he usually goes in the area and he pointed me to JINYA Ramen Bar. He also told me that the chicken ramen was his favorite. Naturally, I had to go to JINYA Ramen Bar because my brother said it was good. LoL!! Scrolling through the JINYA Ramen Bar website, I decided on the Spicy Chicken. I placed my order and headed to the restaurant. The location was easy to find as it sits in the plaza. Walking inside the restaurant, the ambiance was calming and dim. The surroundings were moderately toned and made me think this would be the perfect place for my next date night. I headed to the hostess stand, provided my name. Retrieved my order and was on my way. The process was easy and the service was good. Let's talk Ramen... One word... Amazing!!! The chicken was tender. The noodles were perfectly made. The seasonings were blended perfectly and then, I added the broth to the food and what was already good went to great. The broth was well seasoned and perfectly married all the ingredients together. I ordered the highest level of spice and it was not too spicy and delivered a generous amount of heat to the dish. JINYA Ramen Bar was an amazing experience and I will definitely be back for another round.

    My first visit here and it was amazing. I met up with friends to catch and fellowship. I was introduced and recommended to the Jinya Bun which is a steamed bun with braised pork sandwich like situation. OMG it was delicious, I enjoyed it so much. The next on the list was the Premium Tonkotsu Red which is made with pork braised and you can choose your your own level of heat. I love the decor just the overall ambiance is very nice.

    Spicy Creamy Vegan Ramen*
    Joyita B.

    I revisited this spot after a really long time and it was as fabulous as I remembered it. My favorite ramen here was the spicy creamy vegan and I am not even vegan in the slightest. I like the services, parking is easy and it's always a quick food on the table with them. Ambience is casual but elevated just how I preferred. Definitely returning!

    Best ramen! The customer service was a 10/10. Food came quickly. The customer service was extremely friendly. It's a cute location. Free parking, located in like a shopping center area. Had the chicken and shrimp ramen with thick noodles and it was so good! The kids meal for kids comes with a lot of food it's def worth it! If you are looking for a ramen spot definitely come here!

    The foot here was great! Everything was super hot upon arrival (which was very fast). The food was tasty, I got the medium level of spicy and it was not too spicy, so if you have a high spice tolerance I'd go for the spiciest. The lychee matcha was also good and not too sweet! Our server was great and very sweet. I liked the ambiance, the tables were a bit closer than I'd prefer but the overall volume of the restaurant wasn't too loud

    The atmosphere is good. It is quaint. More of a lunch vibe than anything. The service was fast and efficient. Ramen came out extremely fast. I ordered the Pork belly ramen and my guest ordered the tonkatsu black. The broth left much to be desired. The broth did not seem authentic and tasted similarly to packet ramen. The flavor and texture did not seem standard for authentic ramen and the depth was lacking. But it was still good. I would likely try the Tonkatsu to see if it compares to those I've had before. However, the price is comparable to the quality.

    Tight dining spaces. Good customer service overall (ran slow a couple times but it was pretty busy so understandable). Love that they have plant-based options. Not the best ramen I've had but it's decent even though it's overpriced...but it's Buckhead and 'ramen houses' are trendy so it's to be expected.

    I've been going to Jinya since when I lived in Houston. I've had food a few other ramen joints but Jinya has always been consistently good. I love the variety and the quality of the broth. The restaurant is always clean and service is quick. This time I tried the birria Birria Ramen and I give it a 9/10. It's very flavorful with thick noodles. I normally get the spicy chicken ramen

    Takoyaki*
    Tepolak S.

    This is going to sound controversial, but Jinya is, in my option, tasty. Is it authentic? Not really. However, is the food good? Yes! I love their unique flavors and their options. They have something for everyone whether you like pork or chicken or veggies! Their broths are flavors and their side dishes are great as well. I personally love takoyaki and brussel sprouts. Despite not being vegan, my favorite ramen is probably the spicy creamy vegan with thick noodles. The service there is a hit or miss. There were times where the service was great, but also times where it took me forever to get a glass of water. I hope they can be more consistent in terms of serviceLines can be pretty long, so keep that in mind as well. Overall, a place that I'd probably keep going to when I'm craving a tasty ramen. The restaurant is medium sized. It can get pretty busy depending on when you go in. I typically like to go at lunch time when it opens since it's usually quieter. Overall, it can get pretty loud at night when the place is packed, but in a good way. It's a lively place and there is a bar for those who enjoy getting food and drinks at the bar.

    Do they take reservations?

    not sure but everytime I went it was easy to get seated.

    Does anyone know what their noodles are made out of and if theirs a choice of rice noodles?

    No rice noodles.

    Is there cheesy ramen?

    No.

    How does this compared to those in Tokyo or at least as good as others? the broth is key.. but I know it is difficult. Are owners Japanese or?

    This can never be compared to those ramen shops in Tokyo or Japan. The broth at jinya is too heavy, and I will imagine they are not Japanese ramen if I have to eat there. Owner is Chinese. My Japanese hair stylist said she could not eat them :( and… 

    How is this Ramen place compared to to others.. I know it cannot be as good as those in Tokyo..how does it compared to Sapporo Ramen or Kyushu ramen? How does the broth compared? As I know the real deal breaker is the broth itself and noodles.

    I would say it doesn't compare to ramen in Sapporo or Kyushu, but it's pretty good and maybe one of the more consistent ramen places in Atlanta.

I waited for 30 minutes, watching 3 tables open up, and he never mentioned anything. At some point he seated a couple at one of the tables, so I came up to ask why he hasn't called my name yet, to which he moved his arm toward me in a gesture as if he was getting rid of me, saying "you can sit wherever you want to" with an attitude. I requested to speak to a manager, and all the manager did was offer me a table. At this point I was no longer in the mood to relax and enjoy my night, as I didn't feel welcome at this place at all. After a five-minute conversation with the manager and no result, I left. Very disappointed, and not coming back here. I was going to use this hotel for my birthday, but I guess now I'm taking myself elsewhere.
