Drink menu
Hannah B.

Very sad to see this place change, the menu has gotten much smaller and food has gone down. Changed their menu and now the appetizers are much smaller, no more spicy shrimp tempura . In all seriousness there are much less options than there used to be but they prioritized their drink menu it looks like. We got the Edemame and I thought it came with salt sprinkled on it usually, definitely did not this time. The spicy chicken ramen tasted good but the noodles were soggy. I asked for extra bean sprouts twice and never got them. My brother said the tofu was very slimy and not enjoyable. I asked the waiter if they do anything for birthdays and he said I gotchu covered. After an hour of waiting for whatever it was we left. The place is still very enjoyable to be at but the food just doesn't cut it anymore.

Miso Eggplant small plate. I literally could've eaten my weight in these.
Pamela H.

After having this Miso Eggplant on Monday, I had to go back to have it for Wednesday lunch with white rice. It was soooooooo good that I took another order home for tomorrow's lunch. De-lish! Again service was spot on with Piper, upbeat and tons of positive energy. Sitting solo at the little sushi bar gave me just the right amount of anonymity as well as enough space for my lunch and ipad. Again, I recommend!

Tonkotsu Red...Level 8. YUMMY!!
Chandra S.

Jinya is my absolute favorite ramen bar in Baton Rouge. The Tonkotsu Red allows me to pick my spice level (which is an 8), add extras like fresh garlic, cabbage and broccoli and swap to thin noodles. This dish makes my tastebuds dance!! The restaurant is usually full of folks at the normal busy times of lunch and early dinner. Weekends are always packed and rightfully so because there is something for everyone at this BR Jewel! It's a cute spot to stop in before or after a movie or just as a standalone excursion. If you love ramen, you'll love Jinya!!

Spicy tuna crispy rice, salmon tacos

Carlos was our server and he was very attentive and came to check on us often. He gave us best sellers and personal opinions on the menu which was great! I had the premium tonkotsu red ramen which was pretty good! My friend had a creamy spicy vegan ramen which shocked me with how flavorful it was. I had the e tomo e tomo drink which I loved as well! The crispy rice was a nice, light starter too! Definitely will be back!

Crispy chicken, edamame, spicy tuna crispy rice
Peyton F.

I love JINYA! Their happy hour specials are nice, I always get the tuna crispy rice. Today I tried their spicy creamy vegan ramen and wowwwwwwww literally perfect. It has a great level of spice. I added an egg per our servers recommendation and pork. Literally some of the best ramen I've ever had. Our server, Lana, was a great help. I also love to sit outside, vibes are nice out there.

I usually have a good experience but I ordered my meal from DoorDash and there was already eaten food in my delivery ! Worst experience !

910 food 8/10 service 7/10 drinks All together 8.5/10 I got the spicy ramen and fried chicken and the tsunami drink only thing bothered me is it's not spacey kinda sitting shoulder to shoulder from the other parties service was okay.

Birria Ramen

We went the day after Thanksgiving and it was extremely busy, but to be expected since everyone was out shopping. Staff was super friendly, very polite, and did an excellent job of servicing customers. Very clean and intimate atmosphere. I love the setup and ambiance of the place. I ordered the Birria Ramen and it did not disappoint. I'm still craving it, lol. I will certainly return to try other things and of course my picture shows I stirred it up a bit, it wasn't served that way. Surprisingly, the price was fair for lunch for two. Overall, it was great experience.

I've had jinya ramen in Houston, but this is my first time having it in Baton Rouge. From what I remember, it is pretty similar and of course the Ramen was great. I think my only complaint would be that I wish it had more meat as it seems that most other ramen places I've been to had larger portions of meat. Great location with great service. The food came out fast and was very flavorful, not too salty. I'd come back if I'm in town.

Whitney was a great bartender. I had the impossible gyoza and a flying violette. Main course I went with the flying vegan harvest and it was served properly. I got one jinya chicken ramen order to go. The restaurant kept a steady flow of a crowd. The bar wasn't too busy.

Ramen bar seating..

Price: $$ Portion: 4 stars Taste/Quality: 3.5 stars Service: 3 stars JINYA Ramen Bar was recommended to us by a friend, we decided to give it a try. Stopped in around 7 pm, wait was 1 1/2 hours without a reservation, surprisingly we only waited 30 minutes and received a text. We sat at the ramen bar, pretty cool watching the workers prepping ramen. My 3 stars come with wait time to get our food. Our server was friendly. We placed our order at 7:40, at 8:15 we were still waiting on appetizers. Ramen broth was a little salty in the Jinya Chicken Ramen, but better tasting than most ramen we've tried in LA. My husband ordered extra ramen for his Tonkotsu Black but it took so long he canceled the order since his broth was already getting cold. Chicken Chashu Bowl was delicious, and the serving size was too much for me (regular size), you'll have leftover for breakfast/lunch the next day. All in all, you should try JINYA Ramen Bar. Make it your experience. We came on a Friday night where it was a little busier, so on another day, it may not be, and your experience will be best! Enjoy~ cheers!

Would this place be safe for someone allergic to peanuts?

It sure is. We have many options for you. Please be sure to let your server know.

When will the goku midnight cowboy be back? It's disappointing because that was by far my favorite thing on the menu but it stopped being offered. The musubi is really good though, one of the few places to get it in BR

Rory, At this time we don't have plans to bring back the Goku Cowboy but we are always bringing…

Went during restaurant week and had a whole spread! The staff was very nice and attentive, and I…read morereally liked all the artwork around the room. I think their pizzas were amazing and highly recommend! I thought everything else was average. TOMATOES BASIL SOUP - typical, not amazing, not bad with croutons & fresh basili CAESAR - typical Caesar, nothing special Chopped romaine, garlic croutons, parmesan reggiano, caesar dressing CHUTNEY BRUSSELS SPROUTS - I liked this app better than the prosciutto which is super surprising. I don't usually like Brussel sprouts and I love prosciutto Oven roasted brussel, orange blossom honey glaze pistachio & goat chease APROSCIUTTO E MANGO - I was mildly disappointed in this cause I was thinking the mango flavor would be pretty prominent but it wasn't? savory prosciutto wrapped around creamy ricotta, sweet mango, and peppery arugula. Topped with crunchy pistachios, vibrant pesto, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. DI POLLO - also really liked this! Mozzarella, mushroom, blackened Chicken, red onion, Roasted red peppers DOLCE VITA - I liked this a lot! Burrata, Prosciutto Crudo, Arugula and Balsamic Glaze Desserts: CHOCOLATE FUDGE LAYER CAKE - tasty! Like the cake below, I just wish the chocolate flavor was stronger LIMONCELLO MASCARPONE - wasn't my favorite. I wish the lemon was stronger. Overall didn't think it had much flavor

OMG... what a yummy spot that has been sleepy secret until NOW…read more... The food is so fresh, authentic and delicious. Dinner starts with complementary chips and salsa that are super yummy. Got the trio dip that has this cheesy gooey queso , corn with herbs and cheese and chunky guacamole. We order the carne asada and poncho mixto. The freshness of the food. I will go back and continue to try a new dishes ! But they also have tacos and burritos. The drinks were good too!!! Service was awesome. Gloria was our waitress and she provided some assistance with the choices made. We ate in the bar area. The ambiance of the restaurant is super cute for a girls night out or a first dinner date or a date night with that special someone.

First chips were nice and warm and crispy and the salsa had a really unique flavor that I wasn't…read moreaccustomed to. It wasn't spicy like most salsa that I taste, but it also had a different flavor. I couldn't really put my finger on what the difference was, but it was really good. I ordered the Carne Asada and it was 10 out of 10 for presentation. The dish came steaming, sizzling and smoking as they sat it down and it continued to do so for over a minute. While the steak was cooked properly, medium well as I requested, it was very tough. Maybe it was an angry cow. Regardless, the staff was very attentive. And the service was very fast. Ambience was nice and it felt very comfortable although it was a bit cold so I had to go and get a jacket for my mom and my sister-in-law. I would give them another try the next time I'm in the area. The menu had a few options that I would be interested in.

My wife and I arrived about an hour before closing and there were still plenty of patrons dining…read more The interior of the restaurant is artistic and beautiful without being too over stimulating. Great lighting and front row to the kitchen staff. We were seated pretty quickly and got our initial drinks soon after that. Our waitress was direct and to the point. Their menu features a good mixture of different dishes. For appetizers we got the chicken wings. It was delightfully crispy even after 30 minutes and still steaming hot. I was a little disappointed that it does not come with a sauce. I would recommend getting the spicy mayo sauce as dip (extra $1.50), superb flavor. My wife got the Red tonkatsu and love the spice level. Definitely not for the faint of heart. It came with a generous about of chashu pork and ramen noodles. I got the okonomiyaki which was also good. Fair amount of seafood and the pancake batter was light. I do wish it had more cabbage. We were too full to get dessert but the matcha cake and mochi looked epic. If we are in the Baton Rouge area again and craving ramen, we will definitely consider going back.

Tried this place after consistently passing by. Kicking myself for taking so long to try it…read more To note, ramen has never really been my thing so I'm new to the scene. I've tried a few places lately and this place is in my top 3. The broth is great (add chili oil if getting the chicken ramen) and the overall dish is filling. Service is ok, nothing to get excited over but I'm here for the food.
