Never tried JINYA until Saturday night. Felt like eating Ramen and excellent choice! Our server was Chelsea and she was attentive and made some suggestions. We went with it, and great idea! Try the octopus balls. Ramen was incredible, highly recommend the Birria Ramen, an excellent blend of Japanese and Mexican. Ambiance was good. Intimate and tidy. read more

Excellent ramen bar in downtown Chandler! This was our first time coming here and we absolutely loved it. From the ambiance, staff, food - everything was excellent! The menu has tons of options to choose from. If you're not familiar with ramen, the menu explains the dishes very well. We tried the Spicy Chicken and Tonkotsu Black. Both were delicious! You can customize them with add ons however you like as well, which is awesome. The location is small so utilize the waitlist feature on the website or Yelp. It gets very busy! They do have a full bar here also for drinks. If you like ramen, or looking for a new spot, I recommend coming to Jinya! read more

Great ramen bar right in downtown Chandler. Would highly recommend coming for the happy hour, as they have a great variety of food and beverage options. It is a bit smaller, so seating inside is limited. Ramen was flavorful, had the Tonkotsu black with the garlic oil on the side. This made the broth less potent. Service was great and attentive. read more

We meet some friends here and had such a good time. Our friends were able to call ahead and grab us a table. There is a bar near the entrance, a dining counter near the kitchen, banquettes, and some long high tops. There is a really cool mural on one wall. There is a patio outb front with plenty of seating Our server was great--very helpful and extremely knowledgeable about the menu. The food came out pretty quickly, and everything was delicious. Our table ordered: *Espresso martini *Matcha lychee lemonade *Lucky Dog sake juice box *Spicy creamy shrimp tempura *Crispy rice with spicy tuna *Salmon poke mini tacos *Crunchy cucumber salad *Brussel sprouts tempura *Garlic rice with pork *Two kinds of ramen (sorry! I don't know what kind!) Everything was delicious, and everyone gave the thumbs up. This is the kind of place with a lot to choose from, so great for groups. I definitely recommend it! read more

Came here on a little lunch date with my cousin for the first time. I typically don't care for ramen places due to the lack of flavor in broths, but I was thoroughly impressed with this place. They had a great lunch special going on, your choice of ramen with option A, crispy spicy tuna bites or option B which was like a little appetizer sampler with ramen, both prices were different. I went with the Tonkatsu Black ramen and added some of their seasoning sauce into it and it was magical. The tuna bites were alright. Atmosphere was nice, decorations were pretty neat. Bathroom ambience was also nice, decent lighting for selfies lol Parking in this area I always hated. Will definitely be back to try out other ramens. read more

Good dairy free options. The garlic rice was delicious. My fiance got the red ramen and asked for level 8 spice and by golly they did not hold back. He's used to places toning down the spice because he's a white boi, but he got the full experience here and loved it. read more

You can sign up on the waitlist on the way there since it does get busy! Located in downtown Chandler, there are street parking and a garage available. The ramen is always on point. The favorite is the Jinya Tonkotsu Black. Very flavorful broth. I love how it does not get saltier as you eat like other ramen shops. The chicken ramen is also good if you are in the food for a chicken broth. I really like how thin the noodles are. Service was great! Clean restaurant. Lots of tables indoor and outdoors. You can sign up for the rewards and claim a free Nikuman bun or mochi after sign up. read more

This was actually a recommendation from the judge who was presiding over the case I had to sit in jury duty for. I figured it was time for *me* to be the judge on this food pick of his! It wasn't too busy on a weekday for lunch so I figured it would be a good place to have my meal and be able to get back to the courthouse in time. In addition to their ramen bowls they have rice bowls in a regular and small portion size. I wasn't too hungry but I knew I would probably get hungry later while at the trial so I opted for the small chicken chashu bowl. It took a little longer than I thought it would since it was just a rice bowl but I still had enough time to eat and pay when it arrived. It was a really appealing looking bowl with an enticing aroma. The bowl includes "slow-braised chicken breast 'chashu', ground chicken soboro, kikurage namul, simmered shiitake mushroom, green onion, seasoned egg and sesame seeds" according to their website. The chicken was plentiful and well seasoned and I enjoyed all the other elements in the bowl. Service was pleasant and friendly. I was checked on as needed and water was refilled. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Overall it was a good experience and I'd go here again if I had a craving for Japanese food in downtown Chandler. read more

I love Jinya Ramen, even on a bad day-call me biased. This restaurant always has people and it's very active inside. The staff was very accommodating for my wife and I, since we also had a baby + stroller with us. The order: * chicken ramen 5/5 * tonkostsu black 5/5 * salmon, poke tacos 4/5, smaller than I thought * nikuman buns, free with sign up promo, but otherwise pricey read more

We got the Jinya Tonkatsu Black, Jinya Tonkatsu Red ramen, and Crispy chicken. We loved the ramen!! Best ramen so far in Phoenix. Husband liked the chicken but I think it needed a better sauce to pair with, maybe kewpie mayo. Price was not bad too, total bill was $50 plus tip. Ambiance was great. They have indoor and outdoor dining options. They have misters on during summer. Service was fine but not the best. Our server forgot 1 of our order so make sure to let your server repeat your order. Overall, it was a good experience and would definitely come back. Hopefully they'll open in Tempe read more

The last few times Ive ordered Jinya it has been via door dash and the food is just as good as sitting in the restaurant. The ordering process online is simple and I always add something new so I can try the full menu. Everything comes packaged, sealed, fresh and hot. The wait is often 30-45mins and its always worth it. This time I ordered the shrimp wonton ramen, the broth was delicious and the wontons are packed with filling, also tried the crispy chicken and ordered the fresh garlic to dip on the side. These were even better when I air fried the leftover pieces the next day. Definitely give Jinya a try if you're in the Chandler area, or order online if you prefer to eat in the comfort of home. You wont be disappointed. read more

Love this place for happy hour! I came here on a Sunday after my lovely friend's yoga class and shared some sushi and drinks and ramen while we talked over some life updates in the late afternoon outside, which really didn't feel that bad (even in late June). Their bar is open and also allows pets (which I absolutely adore). Great selection of options for their happy hour menu and wasn't too hard to get a table either. The ramen was also very delicious. I had crispy rice tuna and some salmon carpaccio (both of which were amazing). My friend loved her lychee cocktail as well! The only reason I had to take off a star was because we all saw when I ordered the matcha tiramisu and the staff brought it out to me and he left a giant thumb print on the top of the matcha powder layer when he set it down - but he did not offer to bring out a new one. We all laughed about this but also wondered why there was no replacement offered and then my male friend just went ahead and ate it so I would stop giggling and just eat it instead of trying to force them to eat it all with me. I definitely ate most of the rest of it by myself because THAT WAS FRIGGIN GOOD :P read more

We went to the Downtown Chandler location on a Wednesday at 6:30pm to celebrate a birthday. I was seated right away. Our server was pleasant and kind. The restaurant is lively with upbeat music and the lighting is dark and moody. We were still able to have a conversation and enjoy each-other's company. They have outdoor seating as well. They offer happy hour that ends at 6pm. We ordered the following items: small plates: Brussels Sprouts Tempura $8.90 Sautéed Broccolini $7.60 Ramen: Spicy Creamy V Ramen $18.20 JINYA Tonkotsu Black $18.20 Spicy Chicken Ramen $17.90 You are able to add additional topping to your ramen for an extra cost. Speciality Cocktails: Yuzu Margarita $17 Lycheetini $14 Everything was delicious from the appetizers to the ramen. The Spicy Creamy V Ramen broth was packed with flavor. The noodles were thick and my friends really enjoyed their food as well and said the Lycheetini was really good. We had e a great dinner and would come back again. read more

I went to JINYA for the first time after being invited and it was such a nice experience. The ramen was flavorful and comforting, especially the Spicy Chicken Ramen with a seasoned egg. The broth had great depth and the noodles were cooked perfectly. The vibe was modern and lively, and the staff was friendly even though you could tell they were a little rushed. Overall it was a solid first visit and I'd definitely come back if I was invited again. read more

Being from Chicago, I've had plenty of great ramen, so my expectations were reasonable--but this place missed the mark. The cucumber salad was completely bland and needed spice. The edamame had no salt or flavor at all--it tasted like it was just steamed and tossed on a plate. The ramen itself was decent and had good flavor, but that's about where the positives end. The service was flat-out disappointing. The staff barely checked on us, didn't bother to ask if we needed refills or anything else, even with three small kids at the table. It honestly felt like they were more focused on pushing alcoholic drinks than actually taking care of customers. For a place with such a trendy vibe, the lack of attention and hospitality was surprising. Not sure I'd bother coming back--there are plenty of ramen spots that actually care about their guests. read more

Janessa at the bar is a total sweetheart, so warm and helpful. I reached a little nibble so went with just a small house salad and a snack side of thin noodles that I dressed up with soy sauce and lime. Perfect for wetting my appetite! Still definitely be back! The side salad was so great! Dressing was perfect and tasty, portion generous! The noodles were a touch dry but The gyoza sauce and seasoning sauce on the bar are delicious and a perfect compliment! The hot sauce was flavorful too, just too hot for me. I would have loved to try the crunchy cucumber salad but they had just sold or mout. Definitely next time! And the unagi inari nigiri looked great! Next time for sure! read more

As a ramen lover, I've been wanting to try Jinya for awhile now. This place always seems full when I've driven by so I was excited to finally try it. My fam and I came on Mother's Day for an early dinner. We were greeted right away and managed to grab the last open table. We came at the right time and beat the line that formed after us. Our waiter was nice and attentive. We ordered the crispy rice and spicy tuna starter. Comes in 3 pieces. They were ok but I've had better. I like when the rice is lightly crisp on a couple sides, this seems like it was just deep fried as a whole. * The Jinya chicken ramen had a nice clean flavor to the broth. I wish the noodles were Al dente but maybe that's something I had to order? * The tonkotsu black was ok. The broth wasn't very rich or flavorful, didn't blow me away. Noods were not al dente to my pref. Not a horrible place but I wouldn't go back since there are other ramen restaurants I prefer... read more

I genuinely liked this place before, but after this experience, I won't be coming back. We had a party of 5 (4 adults and one 4-year-old). When we arrived, the restaurant was half empty on a Saturday at noon -- supposedly peak lunch hour in downtown Chandler. There were two empty 4-person tables side by side, several smaller tables available, and an empty bar seating area near the kitchen with movable chairs. The hostess insisted our only options were outside seating or an 8-person high-top table with fixed bar stools and a table bolted to the floor. That setup was clearly unsafe and uncomfortable for a small child trying to reach the table during a meal. I politely asked if we could instead sit at the empty bar area near the kitchen since those chairs were movable and much safer for my child. The hostess refused, saying it was "only for parties of two." Looking around at a half-empty restaurant, I honestly could not understand the logic, so I asked twice for clarification. Eventually, I asked to speak with a manager. Instead, another employee came over who didn't appear to be a manager. When I explained the situation and asked why we couldn't sit in the empty bar area, he immediately said we actually could sit there. So why was the hostess refusing in the first place? What made the situation worse was the complete lack of apology or ownership. He simply said he was "trying" to help. If the staff were truly trying to help, they would have recognized that making a family of five stand around waiting while the restaurant sat half empty was unnecessary and avoidable. The entire interaction showed a lack of basic problem-solving, communication, and customer service. Disappointing experience overall, especially from a restaurant I used to enjoy. read more

Jinya Ramen Bar in Downtown Chandler has been in my rotation of ramen spots since they opened back in 2021. I've visited a few times now, and every visit has been consistently satisfying--especially when I'm in the mood for a particular style of ramen. I'm a big fan of chicken broth, so I went with the Spicy Chicken Ramen: chicken chashu, spinach, spicy bean sprouts, and green onion, served with thin noodles in a rich chicken broth. I ordered it at the spicy spice level because I love my ramen with some serious heat--and it definitely delivered! Bold, flavorful, and just the kick I was craving. To pair with the meal, I tried the Yuzu Margarita, which was super refreshing and balanced out the heat of the ramen perfectly. Light, citrusy, and exactly what I needed. The bartender was very generous and friendly also. If you find yourself in Downtown Chandler and you're craving a comforting, spicy, and flavorful bowl of ramen, Jinya is absolutely worth checking out. This location is charming with a lively atmosphere that feels both modern and cozy. Always a solid choice! read more

Nathaniel was a great server! Got our order in right when we sat. I ordered the tonkotsu ramen which was very flavorful. I wish my noodles were cooked more to be more soft - so I will definitely ask that next time. The pork was very yummy no complaints! For the spicy chicken ramen, the chicken quality was so good - shreds so easily when eating. Lychee martini was not too strong and love the fresh lychees! Perfect night for my bestie and I. read more

I loved loved LOVED my meal at Jinya Ramen Bar. I went over for a lunch date and was not disappointed. I may not be the best ramen critic as I've only had ramen at one other place before but I'd say Jinya definitely tops it by 10! The service was quick and attentive, no complaints at all. The atmosphere was clean, casual, and vibey. Perfect for a lunch date or dinner date. I ordered their Black Tonkotsu and it was delicious! I'd definitely order it again! read more

Sorely disappointed upon entering. Three different employees watched me and several others stand at the door and not a one thought to acknowledge us. I am here for a carryout order so waited. They lost two sets of customers while I waited. It would have taken nothing to acknowledge us. I even said excuse me to one and was ignored. Poor poor experience today. My family has been here before and enjoyed the food, which is why I came for takeout but based on this experience alone I wouldn't be likely to return. read more

Ok. First this is quite possibly the best ramen in the entire valley. Popular chain from California servicing it up right here in Chandler. Thanks for saving us the 6+ hour drive. But... In AZ people complain when the restaurants set their thermostats too cold...like 65...when it is 70, 80, 90 or even 100+ outside. People freeze and get uncomfortable. But now it is winter this restaurant thinks it is OK to leave the entire window wall open when it is 50, 60 degrees outside. What a horrible uncomfortable cold experience that is. The cold spewing into the entire restaurant. People bundling up at their tables. Soups/food getting cold on the counter. Poor employees suffering in the cold. People wearing hats and gloves at the bar. The wind blowing in from outside and sending the rancid dirty bleach smell from the bar dishwasher into the restaurant. I about vomited right there on the table. No matter how good the overpriced food is...being cold is miserable. That is why snowbirds come to AZ...to get away from the cold. Do the patrons a favor...close that wall once the sun goes down. People that like the cold can sit on the patio. People that like it comfortable will come inside. The cold plunge is not supposed to be a dining experience. read more

I love ramen and this is my second visit to this place. We went on a Friday afternoon for lunch with a group of 6. We had to wait for almost 40min to get a table. It was really frustrating to wait that long for a table. We ordered fried chicken, shrimp tempura, spicy chicken ramen and chicken wonton. The food arrived in about 15-20min and we absolutely loved it. Their ramen is amazing, the soft noodles, wonton and the broth was great. I would just go here for their ramen. Though the experience was not a great one but their food game is strong! read more

I have been on a journey to find the best local ramen restaurant in Arizona, and that search led me to JINYA Ramen Bar in downtown Chandler. I visited on a Saturday afternoon, and the restaurant was bustling. After my experience, it was easy to understand why. From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted. The restaurant was clean, inviting, and had a great atmosphere. I arrived at 1:58 PM and was seated promptly by 2:00 PM. Julia was my server, and she was both friendly and highly knowledgeable. I placed my order almost immediately, and by 2:10 PM my food arrived exactly as requested. I ordered the Tonkotsu Original. I was in the mood for something spicy but opted to play it safe since I was unfamiliar with their spice levels. I also requested that the pork chashu be lightly seared, as I enjoy a bit of crispness, and added an order of pork gyoza to complete the meal. Let me tell you, JINYA did not disappoint. The pork broth was rich, deep, and incredibly flavorful. The noodles were cooked to perfection, and the seaweed was truly the finishing touch that brought everything together. This is the kind of meal you can enjoy on a cold day, a hot day, or any day at all. Between the outstanding food, excellent customer service, and welcoming atmosphere, JINYA has officially become my new go-to ramen spot. Keep up the great work. read more

First time visiting this place and I loved it. Service was consistently good throughout the night, the space is fun and active. And I was really impressed by the food selection especially the vegan options. I may no longer be vegan, but I enjoy dairy free and preferably local ingredients so plant based vegan is usually the best option when eating out. We both got ramen and loved it. I got the creamy vegan ramen, it was yummy. We also ordered some gyoza made with beyond meat. Pretty good! I personally am not a fan of fake meats but it was a good appetizer nonetheless. Add some of their version of 'secret sauce' to your items... hunt: it's on the sauce tray. read more

I went on a Wednesday afternoon just after happy hour and had no problem getting a seat at the bar. The dark interior and large brick wall mural gave the place a hip and modern vibe that would be well suited to a date. I ordered the "original Tonkotsu 2010" ramen and was greeted by a particularly aromatic and garlicky bowl. Once past that you are greeted with a rich and creamy broth. While the menu did also include vegan and more nontraditional options like tacos, I did not order any of them. Date or not, I will definitely be coming back! read more

I LOVE this place, like loveeee I've brought so many of my friends here and every single time it hits just as good as the first. The food is always fresh, the service is super friendly, and the vibes are perfect for a friends night, date night, or just treating yourself. Jinya does get busy (because it's that good), so I highly recommend making a reservation on Yelp before you leave your house. It saves so much time unless you're down to grab a drink while you wait, there are tons of great bars and spots around downtown Chandler to hang at! Always a 10/10 for me. If you haven't tried it yet, go. You'll see why I'm obsessed. read more
