    Spicy chicken, Ramen and some sort of fried rice entrée
    Jill M.

    Great welcoming service. Was quickly seated after the hostess finish getting his carryout order together. Server was great gracious and helpful. The atmosphere was lively just perfect for Monday early supper. I find the menu pretty easy to read, though. I did learn some things from my dinner partner that I didn't know were possible. I ordered the spicy Ramen chicken, which I read was one of the restaurant faves. And I ordered a crispy rice, tuna something which wasn't what I expected. It's basically a cube of crispy rice with them. Some sort of Tunis mix squeezed on. It looked premade and was OK. My Ramen was flavorful and somewhat rich. The temperature was not very hot but hot enough for most people. I love the sauces on the table that help add more flavor and heat to my dish. All in all I would come back and try the crispy chicken instead of whatever I got as an appetizer it was mediocre at best. *Tip - it is paid parking in the area just like any place else in Atlanta but not everywhere. The fee is one of the least expensive I've ever experienced and I guess worth it because after dinner you can go and get ice cream from Jenni's

    Food came fast and really great service. The dumplings are to die for! It's probably my favorite item on the menu. The place is really clean and quiet. I went during lucnch time and there wasn't a lunch time rush which I think is nice cause it feels more like a private lunch experience to me. All around great. Wish the prices weren't so high on some of the items but the food taste great!

    JINYA Happy Hour Review JINYA never disappoints! I stopped in during happy hour and had an excellent experience from start to finish. The J Girl mocktail was refreshing, while the spicy tuna tacos were flavorful with the perfect kick. The spicy chicken ramen was the star--rich, satisfying, and packed with flavor. Service was attentive and welcoming, making the entire visit enjoyable. Parking is pay-to-park, so keep that in mind, but the food and service absolutely make the visit worthwhile. A great spot for ramen lovers and anyone looking for a lively dining experience! Hey!

    I ordered the birria ramen and it was so good! 10/10. We ordered a lot of appetizers too. I didn't know the boiled eggs were extra until I saw the bill lol. The food took a while to come out and our server wasn't very attentive. We waited a while for the bill and to get our card back. But overall, the food was really good! Also, be aware of the pay to park signs! My husband noticed the QR code was actually a sticker that could be pulled off. He brought it to the owner's attention, but nothing was done about it.

    While the ambiance and service was great, I ended up extremely sick from this food. The ramen smelled amazing but I knew something about it tasted off. There was so much grease in this bowl of ramen that I didn't realize until later. I was sick the entire evening from this food and had to leave work early. I will never be back.

    I used to love Jinya. The food is always yummy and the prices are usually pretty good, but recently this place has really gone downhill. I will absolutely never eat at Jinya again after my last two experiences.The second-to-last time I ordered from them, I got horrible food poisoning. I decided to give them one more chance, but my most recent visit was the final straw. While sitting at my table, I saw a roach crawl right next to my bowl. When I pointed it out to the staff, all they offered to do was remake the meal. In what world is remaking food next to a live bug acceptable? They definitely should have comped my entire meal.

    Jinya is always a solid bowl of ramen. One of my favorite parts is that there is a long list of items to customize your bowl. I'm a huge garlic lover and it makes my tastebuds happy that I can get a dish of fresh garlic on the side to add as much as I want to my ramen. I also really enjoy that they make the perfect jammy egg. Today I chose an extra side that I haven't had before, the spicy tuna tacos. What a perfectly flavorful little bite. The staff is always friendly and service is quick and efficient. The restaurant is simple and clean.

    Literally the best place to have ramen! Great customer service and the food is always excellent! The ambiance is always clean and there's great spacing.

    This was my second visit, that says a lot because I rarely go back to the same place twice. But this ramen spot? It pulled me right back in. If you're on the hunt for GOOD ramen, consider this your sign. I stopped by for a weekday lunch and was seated immediately-- yaaay! . The service is quick without feeling rushed & your food comes out fast, hot, and full of flavor. Let's talk about the vibe: the patio is chef's kiss right now. Perfect weather, and they've got umbrellas if the sun starts doing a little too much. Now for the best part; everything is packed with flavor and the portions are just right. If you like a little kick, the spicy tuna is a must-try. Not overpowering, just enough heat to keep things interesting. At this point... a third visit isn't a "maybe," it's inevitable

    Came in as a party of 2 and were told a 40 minute wait that pleasantly ended being only 20 min. We had walked over to Righteous Room for a drink while we waited. We were seated at the bar and ordered a bowl of tonkatsu black and red. I ordered mine at a level 10 but our server put it in as an 8. The 8 was fine because I actually don't like that the additional spice makes the soup thicker. Next time I'll order it as a 5 to avoid the up charge and add the table spicy sauce instead. I will say the meat and egg are good. The meat is tender and juicy and the egg is perfectly gooey. Dont forget to add fresh garlic! But overall, the ramen is just fine. The soup flavor is just okay. For dessert we ordered green tea mochi and it was mostly melted. Those should come straight out of the freezer to allow them to melt slightly when the get to the table. Ours were mushy with the ice cream oozing out.

    This place is fantastic! I love the different options for appetizers and drinks. The bao bun was delicious, bun was soft. I also got the salmon poke tacos and it was fresh and flavorful. I ordered the black ramen, it was tasty. I thought the egg could have been marinated a little longer or could have had a deeper flavor. The service was very attentive. Good place for large parties, you should check in on yelp!

    Ramen is a good look when hot or cold outside! Tried this local gem a few weeks back with some colleagues in hot Atlanta. I forgot the name of the specific ramen I tried but it was with veggie broth and tofu. I do not like soft tofu, I probably should have requested it be grilled. C'est la vie! I also prefer a more creamy broth consistency which this broth was not.I started with some sushi appetizers (because why not). I enjoyed my food but I wasn't wowed by any of my selections. Our server was attentive and kind. It was your typical Ramen stop with lively greetings, intimate table closeness and food arrived quickly. Would I return? Uuummm maybe! I've had better vegetarian ramen in other states (CA). While an unfair comparison, this experience was a solid 4.

    Parking is atrocious -- just go ahead and bring your patience with you. This place stays packed, so expect a bit of a wait. That said, the food and service do make up for it. They had a special running when I went, and the ramen was solid. Nothing earth-shattering, but definitely satisfying. What stood out most was the variety on the menu -- enough that I'd come back just to try something different next time. Bonus points to the staff: super friendly, helpful, and they gave some great drink recommendations that paired really well with the food. Overall, if you're willing to fight for parking and wait a bit, it's worth the trip.

Parking was simple enough and free, albeit a little tight. I love the moody but light interior of this restaurant. It's not particularly upscale, but it is on the nicer end of a casual restaurant. Seating is tight but it didn't detract from the experience. Our table was a little wobbly, though. The bathrooms are tucked away in the very back of the restaurant and were tidy and clean with a nice design. The food was truly delicious. The bao duo was a great starter. We got one with pork, the other chicken. I appreciated that the flavor profiles of each were so different! We also tried the umami rice bowl... perfect seasoning and portion for an app. For ramen I had the truffle shoyu and husband had a spicy tonkotsu. We both added extra protein (pork) because most ramen places play around with the meat portion LOL. But the noodles, the egg, and all the accoutrements were texturally excellent. SO GOOD. They have a few beers on tap, a decent cocktail menu and wine. I grabbed a SauviB and hubs had a beer. It was the perfect balance to all the delicious umami flavors we experienced. Service was lovely as the place is small, and everything was clean. Our tab ran us about $88 before tip so come ready to spend. But the quality was worth it! I'll return when I'm craving ramen.

The broth was flavorful, the noodles were good, and the pork was delicious. My issue was that there was barely any broth -- maybe about a cup -- and it didn't even fill the bowl halfway. For the price, I definitely expected more broth and a little more pork. The flavor was absolutely there, but the portion just didn't match what I paid. I'd probably order it again because it tasted good, but I'd hope for a more generous serving next time.

There are a limited number of free parking spaces, but there's also a parking garage conveniently located right next to the restaurant. The restaurant was clean, and we were greeted as soon as we walked in. Since there were only about three occupied tables, we had our pick of seating. The menu is accessed through a QR code, but I appreciated that they also provide a tablet for guests who prefer not to (or can't) use their phones. The service was excellent. Our server took the time to explain the menu, answer questions, and clarify which substitutions were available. Hands down, the best gyoza I've had in Georgia. The wrappers were perfectly crisp with a juicy, flavorful filling that disappeared far too quickly. I ordered the Hot Miso Ramen, and it arrived looking just as incredible as it tasted. The vibrant crimson broth was topped with tender slices of pork chashu, a perfectly marinated jammy egg, sweet corn, scallions, sesame seeds, and seasoned ground pork, creating a bowl that was as visually inviting as it was delicious. Despite the name, the spice level was approachable; it added warmth without setting my mouth on fire. The broth was rich, savory, and layered with flavor. I'm usually not a fan of pork ramen, so I ordered the chicken karaage to add to my meal, but it honestly wasn't necessary. The pork was exceptionally tender, well-seasoned, and completely changed my opinion of pork ramen. My daughter ordered the Hangover Cure Ramen, which was equally impressive. It was soothing, deeply savory, and comforting; the kind of meal that warms you from the inside out. It was lighter than my bowl but still packed with flavor, making it the perfect choice if you're looking for something nourishing without sacrificing taste. We finished with a mochi ice cream. While it was refreshing and served as the perfect palate cleanser after such a savory meal, I do think it's a bit overpriced considering it's a single piece. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience. From the warm hospitality and attentive service to the beautifully presented, flavor-packed food, E Ramen exceeded our expectations. Whether you're a ramen enthusiast or trying it for the first time, this spot is absolutely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back.

The wasabi lime sauce was really good and the truffle oil was a nice touch. The rice could have been more crisp though. I also had the e signature ramen, which I can see why it won awards. The broth was so goo and on the creamier side. We had a great time here.

I also added broccoli to the bowl, which I probably wouldn't do again because it was pretty bland, but overall the bowl was good. Now the vegan dumplings... were FANTASTIC! We shared the dumplings and everyone agreed that they were easily the best thing that we had eaten the whole day. The green color threw me off at first, but the crispiness and texture of the dumpling was amazing. I would love to go back and try the ramen to see how it measures up, but again, great experience. Also, when you are paying the check, they bring you a small bucket full of dum dum lollipops, which I thought was a great touch. Me and my adult guests all left like happy children, which is exactly how eating out should make you feel.
