I have always loved the vegan ramen in Jinya. After moving to San Diego, going to Jinya has been tricky because it's all near LA. Luckily for us, we were in the area and found a Jinya close by. I can't express how excited we were. Parking was easy. As soon as we walked it, we felt nostalgic. I have been to the Jinya in Austin over 20 times and the ambiance was consistent with what I was familiar with. We did sign up for their rewards program that got us free dessert! We first ordered some warm sake. It was a cold day so it was the perfect way to get started. The sake came out quickly and as expected - it was perfect! We next got the spicy vegan ramen bowls. The food took a bit but it was worth the wait. The ramen looked delicious. We couldn't wait to dig in. The ramen was packed with flavors and we literally inhaled the food. The portion size was perfect. The vegan ramen was packed with tofu and vegetables and had yummy sauces. Lastly, we got some matcha mochi ice cream. This was tasty too. If you love ramen and haven't found your ramen place, go give Jinya a shot! You won't be disappointed! read more

This was my first time dining here with my girlfriends after a long day of shopping at Victoria Gardens, and here's why I gave them 3 stars. When we were seated, our waitress told us that if we signed up for their rewards program, we'd receive a free mochi ice cream. She recommended downloading the app, but since service was a bit slow, we decided to sign up using the QR code at the table instead. We successfully created our accounts and were excited to enjoy our meal. One of my friends was trying ramen for the first time, so we wanted to make sure she had a great first experience. The ramen was delicious, and the matcha lychee lemonade was so refreshing! After we finished eating, we ordered dessert and asked to redeem the free mochi ice cream. Our waitress had trouble finding our rewards accounts, so we gave her our phone numbers. After waiting for a while, she came back and told us we couldn't redeem the reward because it had to be done through the app. That was disappointing because we had signed up exactly as we were instructed. I've worked in the restaurant industry, and I understand that sometimes promotions have restrictions. However, I also know that great customer service means finding a solution when a guest follows the directions they were given. Since our waitress watched us sign up, I wish she had honored the promotion or at least spoken with a manager to see if an exception could be made. Overall, the food was excellent, and I'd definitely come back for the ramen and drinks. I just hope they improve their customer service and make sure their staff clearly explains how the rewards program works to avoid disappointing future guests. read more

The first thing you'd notice walking in here is that everything feels very classy. They also have a reward program for you to earn extra goodies during your visits, like a free niku-bun or ice cream. Our server was also super sweet. She got very excited when we ordered the J Girl cocktail because she said she knows how to make it and would make it personally for us. I think she did a good job because I sipped it way quicker than I thought and it was gone. It's a mocktail, so you get a lot of the fruity and refreshing flavors from it. Currently the chef's special is the Tokyo Yatai Classic, which was so rich in the broth flavor. Now the chashu literally melts in your mouth here and the way they cook the egg is perfect. You see those perfect soft boiled eggs in ramen or anime? They got the technique to show you that in real life. The tonkatsu red ramen can be adjusted for spiciness. If it's your first time, start at 2 or 3. We went in at a level 6 and they had to warn us. I definitely felt that kick, but my fiance loved that level. It was impressive to try a place that delivered everything they promised, from the egg and chashu to the strong fire in their ramen. The salmon taco here actually works pretty well. They are a little small, so unless it's happy hour or you really want to try, they can be a bit pricy. But because of their size, they're much easier to eat and the shell compliments the salmon texture very well. read more

I checked in yesterday and had such a fabulous time thanks to Adrina my Server, Bartender, and Top Shelf Brand Ambassador! I was craving something soupy and comforting because of the chilly weather so I decided to pop into Jinyas to see what the Company's latest Seasonal Lineup tastes like. Adrina welcomed me in quickly and informed me I could sit anywhere I like, and tidied up my dining space by removing the excess place settings since I was dining solo! I loved the upscale exquisitely chic decor and all the breathtaking photographs and clear descriptions of Jinya's vast and sophisticated Food and Beverage Selection! I decided to order the Kiwi Sparkle Mocktail and Spicy Chicken Ramen in the mild spice level, followed by the Salmon Poke Tacos and Matcha Tiramisu for dessert. Everything tasted fabulous and exceeded my expectations in freshness quality and Artful presentation, especially the Kiwi Sparkler! I love studying the Art of High Sophistication Mocktails and really appreciated Adrina for taking the time to build me one that looked even better than the model shown in the Photograph. Adrina's Kiwi Sparkler was extra stunning and equally as delicious, and I appreciated her presentation skills detailing the lovely ingredients and smart methodologies used to create such an unforgettable and healthfully charming masterpiece. I appreciated how clean the restrooms were and the warm and welcoming friendly smiles from the whole Team while I happily wandered around the Cave! Adrina was super helpful in explaining to me how to download the Jinya App to get my fun rewards and have a reason to return to mindfully tango with the other fun and seductive mocktails ;0) Thank you to the Jinya Team for being such focused and effective Professionals, I can't wait to return and bring my Besties with me for more wildly satisfying Culinary Roller Coaster Rides here! read more

Ordered ramen online and was pretty disappointed when I got home and opened the bag. When I picked it up it was stapled at the top and I should have checked before I left but how hard can 1 order of ramen to go be right? That was my first mistake assuming it was all in there. So upon opening the container I notice that there is barely any broth to go with my ramen like I poured it in and didn't see broth with my noodles (they should be submerged in broth right) ? See attached photo for that. Second I added bok choy that was $3-4 and it was pathetic there was 2 small pieces of baby bok Choy and it was steamed so much it look shriveled and unappetizing (even had lots of speckled black dots that looked questionable). I added garlic and spicy sauce (which was an up-charge) and neither was in the bag. What a joke. $30 For ramen and the order not being right is crazy. Never again. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere peeps read more

We came here on a Weeknight to celebrate a birthday. I've been coming here pretty regularly, usually preferring a take out during the weekdays. But! It was a special occasion so we decided to dine in. Parking is never an issue, we were greeted, and seated promptly. The issue came when we met our waitress. This was our second time being served by her. She seems like she was in a bad mood! And was taking it out on us. We were advised from her that 10 pcs karage happy hour would only save us 2 cents. Then when the chicken came out, it came with a soy sauce for us to dip it into. We asked for a mayo and said it'd be a dollar extra. The red ramen had a warning for additional charge as well if you go over level 6 spicy, and the chashu bowl had very cold mushrooms and barely any sauce! We had given this place so many tries and celebrated different occasions here, but this was our last straw dining here. Between the mediocre ramen, higher price point, moody waitress, and being nickle-dimed for everything, this last experience did it for me. read more

I will give it , two stars just because the food is good , but the customer service it's really bad , we asked then for a folk and extra bowl, the server forgot about it . after we asked for the promotion they have with the loyalty points , she gave us a face like she never heard about the promotion it's literally on the menu and out side the restaurant, plus it took forever to get a water refill and it's was empty , 5 servers , only 4 tables with people and the customer service still bad , I don't wanna be there when it really gets busy ... it's sad because food it's good ... read more

I hadn't been here in over five years, so it definitely felt like a long-overdue return... I was craving ramen and remembered this spot being pretty solid, so I stopped by for lunch. The restaurant itself is really nice; spacious, clean, and comfortable... It also wasn't very busy during my visit, which made it a relaxing place to eat.. One small disappointment was the happy hour timing. I arrived just before it started, and unfortunately, the happy hour items weren't available... It would've been nice if there was a little flexibility, but it is what it is.. I ordered the shrimp and pork dumpling ramen, and it was pretty good !!! flavorful and satisfying... I also tried the matcha lychee tea, which I'm guessing is a newer drink. It was decent, refreshing, and a nice pairing with the meal.. Service was okay overall... My server seemed new and a bit nervous, and she forgot a couple of things, but she was still polite and trying her best. All in all, it was a good experience. It's close to home, so it's still one of my go-to spots whenever I'm in the mood for ramen. Definitely worth a visit, especially during happy hour!!! read more

Decent ramen, but I would say it's only worth it during happy hour from 2-7pm. We ordered the ramen + combo meal. Red ramen + pork chashu and salad. The ramen bowl was actually a bit on the smaller side, but I liked that their noodles were harder. Chashu pork bowl was filling and tasty, but a lot of fatty pork and wood ear toppings. Karaage during happy hr was for 5 pieces, but I was surprised how big the pieces were. They also have small snacks and beer/cocktails on the happy hr menu. Food came out quick, with attentive service. Check it out if you like ramen ! read more

The ramen itself was decent. The noodles were thick and flavorful, and the broth was rich and satisfying. There are definitely some good qualities here. My main concern is the pricing. The cost felt extremely high for what was ultimately a very basic ramen experience. For example, a side of four small sheets of dried seaweed was an additional $3, which seemed excessive. I was also surprised that vinegar was not available. Many ramen shops throughout Asia offer vinegar as a standard condiment because it can add balance and depth to the broth. While this may not matter to everyone, it was something I noticed. In total, two basic bowls of ramen, one extra egg, one side of seaweed, and two cups of water came out to around $60 for lunch. At that price point, I expected either larger portions, more included toppings, or a more complete dining experience. I left feeling somewhat full, but not satisfied with the overall value. I hope the restaurant takes customer feedback into consideration and reevaluates its pricing, because there is potential here. With better value for what customers receive, I think the experience could be much stronger. read more

We come here often. My husband always gets the Birria Ramen, and I usually order the Shrimp Wonton Ramen with a side of fried chicken. Everything we've tried has been good--consistently around an 8/10. We've also tried several drinks, but they were pretty mediocre. The atmosphere is quiet, there are TVs, and overall it's a comfortable place. The reason for the lower rating is the customer service. When you walk in, the staff often have their backs to guests (their computer faces the wall), and it can take a while before anyone acknowledges you. Once the food arrives, service becomes minimal. Check-ins are infrequent, refills take a while, and we've even seen our server on her phone while we were waiting for assistance. We've returned multiple times hoping the service would improve, but unfortunately the experience has been consistently inattentive. The food keeps us coming back, but the customer service needs significant improvement read more

Food is really good imo, from the appetizers, ramen, and rice bowls. And the price is reasonable. The restaurant has nice aesthetic and is clean. One thing to note about the ramen tho is that they barely put any broth in their ramen bowls. The real downfall is the service. Quite slow even when the restaurants not busy. Told we had to wait 5 to 10 minutes even when the restaurant was a quarter filled with people. Food did take longer than I'd like to come out but I could see only 2 cooks in the kitchen. The problems may have to do with staffing. read more

Came to Juniya with some family and friends for a late night eat. Felt like having some ramen on a rainy night. I ordered the Jinya Tonkotsu Black with the spicy sauce on the side. It was yummy and I also ordered the Smokey Wokashi Old Fashioned which was tasty. Until next time, Enjoy! read more

We came here during lunch on Thursday with my team from work. We were celebrating 2 birthdays and a work anniversary. The staff were really nice and sat us quickly. We ordered the fried chicken as an appetiser and it was delicious! The portion was larger than what I expected. The chicken was crunchy and juicy in the inside. Everyone in our party ordered ramen but me. They all loved their ramen. I ordered the poke bowl. I was expecting a smaller since the menu showed "small" next to it and I know poke tends not to be cheap. I ended up being the only one with a box because it was bigger than expected. While the group was sitting, I mentioned to the hostess about the birthdays. They did a really nice gesture of bringing dessert with the plate showing "happy birthday". My team was very surprised and appreciated it. I now feel like I am missing to try the ramen. I've had it a while ago in Vancouver and I have good memories of it. I will for sure be back and bring my bf along. read more

I went in on Monday around dinner time and had a delightful experience. I ordered the spicy creamy vegan ramen and added chicken, with a side of edamame. It was my first time trying it. 10/10 ramen. The edamame is a staple for me, and as always, it did not disappoint. The ambiance was clean, comfortable, and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a good meal. It got very busy unexpectedly. There were two servers handling everything, but the servers did their best to provide phenomenal service despite the high demand of the night. As a customer, even when the restaurant suddenly got very busy, the two servers on duty handled the rush very well. I felt that they did their best to provide me with the things I needed from extra napkins to extra water and extra limes. I'll definitely be returning, not only for the food but for the exceptional service they provided even under pressure. read more

Come on jun 4, Wednesday 9pm We came and i saw that the restaurant is pretty slow. She asked us that we need to wait for 10-15 minutes . At first, i feel confused because there is a lot of empty table but we still need to wait. I still trying to be patient I saw the queue line that there is 2 people and 1 person that not been sitting . I feel confused when she said that they don't have enough employees. After that we have been sitting 9.08 and i order 2 water , crispy chicken , tonkotsu ramen black, and spicy chicken ramen. The crispy chicken come at 9.15 and the ramens come at 9.43 pm. Hm... for me i used to come to this restaurant for many times and today i need to wait almost 30 minutes just for ramens. It's not even busy. He just got 5 tables and some to go. I saw the other tables, their food comes slow as well. What makes me frustrated that they don't serve spoon on the table too. I need to ask the spoon. Overall, i saw 3 ladies and 2 men working on the restaurant. I feel some disappointment today. I used to came here and everything is so excellent and fast. I finish my whole bowl, but to be honest, their ramen broth is not even Hot . I don't even know how they serve it. Tekstur of the noodle is too firm, maybe they didn't cook it well or they leave for along time before serving to my table. I also tried the spicy chicken broth, it's too plain ( no flavor) , Crispy chicken is good. However, the tonkotsu ( meat) tastes weird. Maybe this is my last come! What a disappointment for ramen that price around 18$ with what i get ! read more

Ordered to go online. I waited a bit to come pick it up and still almost an hour after I ordered, food wasn't ready. When I inquired with the host, was told they prioritize dine-in orders and had not even started the to go orders. Totally unacceptable- should be served in order of when the order is placed. Additionally, noticed none of the people cooking or preparing food had hair coverings like nets or hats. I thought it was a requirement to have something to cover your hair when handling food. I hope my late food is clean! read more

I've been here a few times and I feel like the ramen is just okay. This recent time my ramen broth had no flavor. The last time I came it was very salty. I also think it's a bit pricy for the quality of food. Our food did come out quick, but I also come when the restaurant is not busy. Service was good. Our waitress was attentive. The inside of the restaurant is nicely designed and clean. Honestly, this isn't my favorite ramen spot, it's just convenient because I'm local. read more

I was so craving this ramen and the broth is to die for, but someone decided not to even send me hardly any broth. Broth. I mean I couldn't believe it.

The kids were craving ramen and we happened to pass by Jinya. So we turned around and popped in! The decor was really nice and they let us pick wherever the kids wanted to sit. They have a kids meal that we were interested in, but our server kept telling us that they weren't sure if we could get pork ramen instead of chicken. So we just went with the chicken. It wasn't very many people in the restaurant but we found ourselves waiting for a really long time. Finally they came up to us and told us that they lost our order. There were no apologies. No offers to make things right. When our food finally came out. We asked for some spicy mayo for our chicken. The server immediately replied, it's $2. We weren't that bothered by the delay of our food, but the fact that they never said sorry and immediately jumped to charge us for a side of spicy mayo was the kicker. It's one thing to loose an order with a full restaurant, but we were one of three tables, and we could see the cooks talking and messing around in the kitchen. Good food but we will not be returning. read more

We used to come here for food but last month, service was really bad. My husband and I came to reserve seats for 10 and was told we have to wait for the entire party. We understand and we told the server that we would like to wait in the bar and avail of happy hour drinks while waiting. We waited for almost 30mins and no one even asked for our order in spite of multiple follow ups. They advised they arr short staff. It was around 6pm and to be honest almost only half of tables are full. When 50% of our party arrived, still no one approached. We decided to have our dinner in the nearby place. Very disappointing. read more

This was my first time trying this place and although food was 8/10 the service was a little off 5/10. The ambiance is pretty cool very spacious and modern. The hosts whom looked like children took a whole of 5 mins to acknowledge me while they had a whole conversation about identifying table numbers and availability. Our server wasn't able to recommend any drinks and stated people order for presentation only but they were all out of said popular drinks. The ramen, chicken bowl, and crispy shrimp were pretty great! Overall it was a good birthday dinner but most likely will not be back again. read more

We moved to this area about a year ago and first time around the food took forever and it was also wrong. Sadly we had noticed that when we got home to a family of 5 that had all specific order. And they also didn't want to provide spicy sauce. Sorry what??? They wanted to charge &4 for a time that was not even full of sauce. Swore NEVER AGAIN. Fast forward to my husband I having a day full of errands and no time to cook and despite our uncertainty we decided to give this place yet another shot. Ordered a tonkotsu and a tonkotsu subbing clear broth chicken. THEY GAVE US THE SAME FRICKING THING!! To make matters worse the broth was not even HALF full! THE ABSOLUTE WORST LOCATION BY FAR!!!!

We've been to Jinya in Austin before so we were excited to see it so close to our new place. Unfortunately the food and service didn't live up to the Austin spot. Service was slow, I'd even say they were confused as to their assigned sections since our waitress came over and asked if anyone's helped us yet. We ordered two drinks (alcoholic) and my watermelon/lime/mint/tequila drink tasted like water and was so bland! We also ordered edamame (no seasoning) and 4 ramens. I tried the vegan tofu ramen today and the tofu was very bland. We had to add lots of chili oil and hot sauce to get that kick from ramen we were wanting. Overall, we were quite disappointed in our experience but would come back for take out for the kiddos. read more

Went in to eat on a Wednesday night at 845pm. the place was empty. open tables everywhere. ...they said it was a 20m wait. She said they had just one server that night. I asked if we could sit at the bar she said no. I asked if we could wait at one of the dozens of empty seats, she said no. We had to wait outside where there was no seating (because others were sitting on the inside waiting benches). We decided to walk through the parking lot to Starbucks to sit and wait our 20m. Got a water and felt very frowned upon. We eventually called and she said our table was almost ready, so we went back and still waited another five minutes to be sat. Meanwhile, others kept coming in, and she even allowed a couple to sit at the bar! Food was decent, server was AMAZING, front service/ management of the place was terrible. 10p hit and they flipped all the overhead lights on and a janitor pushing a water bucket with mop came out. They literally had zero wait time to transition guests finishing their food. It was lights on, cleaners out, were closed, goodbye. And then you have to go to the counter to pay. It was all very unpleasant. Ambiance was nice. Server saved the stars given. I wouldn't come back. (See my photo for the emptiness of the place) read more

When I walked in to the restaurant I got a wif of a nasty smell, like rotten food. Also when stepping in me and my partner noticed a roach crawling on the floor. Workers were not seating us because my partner has been in a wheelchair and cannot do anything about it . We were starving and decided to ask the lady when they would seat us.The front desk lady proceeded to say, " well you guys are going to have to wait until a booth is open."And that it was not safe for the wheel chair to be in the middle of the tables but, yet again only 3 tables were taken and so many others were open. Me and my partner decided to leave and we told her " are you guys really not going to serve us because he is in a wheelchair??" The front desk lady says " well I'm a minor" what does that have anything to do with you not serving us. To sum it up bad costumer service, and unclean. read more

I am honestly not even sure how this place is still open. We came in on a Friday night and were quoted a 15 to 20 minute wait with a restaurant that maybe had 5 tables taken and the rest empty but somehow had a waiting room full of clearly agitated people. While we waited we were treated to watching one of the five groups eating getting up to try to find a server, someone waiting for a to-go order not be told it was ready until it has sat in the bag on the counter for about 15 mins, and the about 6 tables that had dishes all over them never get cleaned. It got so bad that at one point that all of us waiting eventually started making conversation with each other about how much of a dumpster fire this place is. With the way the staff was moving you would have thought we were at the DMV. Needless to say we left after waiting 25 minutes and watching a couple walk in and instantly be seated before us. read more
