    The service was great! Everybody was so accommodating and helpful. The ambiance was beautiful. Very modern and aesthetic. The food was good but the ramen broth was mid. They're very creative with their takoyaki tho.

    Crunchy Cucumber Salad

    I have heard many good things about Jinya Ramen Bar and finally had the opportunity to check it out with some coworkers. Upon walking in the restaurant, the first thing I noticed was the beautiful and moody atmosphere. Taking a date here would be a great place to facilitate conversation given the overall atmosphere. The food was pretty good. The cucumber salad was decent but could probably use some more flavor and spice. It was not spicy at all and a bit bland. The aburi sushi was also quite a bit bland with too much rice and not enough salmon. The chicken yuzu shio delight ramen was the best dish I had there but it was still pretty average in terms of the ramen I have had before. Overall, it was good but everything felt kind of thrown together and it did not feel cohesive. Service was great. I forgot our server's name but she was on top of everything and accommodated all eight of us without a sweat.

    Back for more and .... Spot on! Service and atmosphere: Outstanding on both fronts. Friendly and welcoming staff with good food knowledge to help you choose your dishes. Restaurant was clean, organised, very well decorated and had modern vibe. Food and drinks: Very good. This time we tried new birria ramen and we were very satisfied. Hearty and thick broth with tender beef meat, cilantro, diced onions and lime. Authentic flavours. We didn't opt for any alcoholic beverages but they do have vast selection. Pricing: $$ - worth every cent.

    I've been on a DoorDash binge lately and Jinya was next on the list! As someone who appreciates the complexity and soul of a well-balanced Japanese broth, I have to say JINYA Ramen in Spring Branch did not disappoint. I ordered the Tonkotsu Black, and every element of the bowl spoke to intention and craft. The broth was a rich, tonkotsu base, deeply simmered. The fresh garlic I added brought a vibrant sharpness that cut through the richness just enough to reset the palate with each bite. I went with thin noodles rather than the traditional thick, which gave the bowl a Hakata-style authenticity I appreciated. They were perfectly al dente, soaking up the broth just enough without losing its tenderness. The chashu pork was tender and well-marbled, practically melting into the broth, while the seasoned egg had that ideal jammy yolk--marinated just long enough to add umami without becoming too salty. The scallions added a needed freshness and brightness, rounding out the flavor profile beautifully. Only complaint is the amount of broth they give, IMO not enough! This bowl was a well-executed blend of texture, richness, and contrast. For those who know their ramen--from tare to topping--JINYA in Spring Branch delivers with precision and depth.

    JINYA Ramen Bar has been pretty consistent across Houston locations. First time here at the Spring Branch, very good size restaurant and right now special ramen call Ciao Ramen, it is Italian flavor ramen. I like it. It was different but tasty. The server was good and check on us just enough time. We also got the dessert and the mochi ice cream was not worth it but the matcha tiramisu was great! I had a good meal with the family here.

    With the chilly weather this week, it felt like the perfect time to stop by the Spring Branch location for some hot ramen. There are plenty of parking in the shopping plaza. The interior has the same Japanese-inspired vibe as the other locations, offering a cozy atmosphere. The menu has seen some updates since my last visit (both in variety and pricing), but you can still order some of the classics, like the Sprouting Up Ramen, off-menu. I decided to try the new Premium Tonkotsu Red (the replacement for the OG Tonkotsu Spicy), opting for a spice level of 3/10. My husband went with the classic Tonkotsu Black. Interestingly, if you order a spice level over 6, there's an additional charge. The Tonkotsu Red came with thick noodles, which in hindsight, I would have preferred to swap for the thin noodles. The broth was a bit too dominated by the spicy sauce, which overpowered the rich pork flavor I was craving. That said, the chashu and egg were both perfectly cooked. We all agreed that the Tonkotsu Black, with a little bit of the spicy sauce added on the side, was the better option. Overall, while the Tonkotsu Red wasn't quite to my taste, Jinya is still a reliable ramen chain on a cold day. Next time, I'll likely stick with the tried-and-true classics on the menu.

    Been here once previously for Yelp's Elite event and finally got the chance to come back. We came on a weekend night with friends for dinner. Parking is plentiful in front as the plaza is quite developed now with new businesses. Jinya remains quite consistent and this location retains the feeling and flavor of its original midtown location but much closer to home. The interior is quite dark but that is consistent with the locations that I have been to (midtown, heights, Katy). The updated menu is slightly overwhelming compared to what I remember so we ordered what we were familiar with; the tonkotsu black with the thinner noodles. The prices have gone up quite a bit since COVID but unfortunately so has almost everything in the restaurant industry. The ole dependable still has the rich broth and solid flavor that I remember and the thin noodles definitely pair optimally with the rich pork broth. My wife got the spicey option (with the thicker noodles) but ultimately agreed the tonkotsu black is the way to go; there is hot sauce on the side that you can add for some spice. Overall, Jinya is a solid chain ramen spot in Houston. I haven't explored much else of the new menu but content to stick with what works and what I like.

    I have always been a fan of Jinya and was happy to see a location opened in the SB neighborhood. It's located in the new plaza on Long Point. Easy to get seated, they have plenty of tables inside. Service is friendly and quick. Normally, my favorite is the tonkotsu black but I decided to go for the vegan red fire opal. I was impressed by the yuzu flavored hot and sour soup. Packed with flavors and it's now become my favorite ramen here. I also sub out the noodles for gluten-free noodles. A great option for anyone eating vegan.

    General Description: A Japanese Ramen restaurant that has a clean modern interior. The Good: - Service was great. - You can never go wrong with Ramen. - Parking was easy. The Bad: - Japanese ramen can be a little heavy. It's one of those dishes where the first take is amazing and it goes downhill from there. - It was a little loud inside.I'm not sure if it was the music or the echo. Overall: It's worth a try.

    This is my ordered jinya location as it's closest to my house .. ample parking which is nice, no outside seating but pretty good seating inside, servers are friendly, food is always good.. overall worth going too, as i go probably 1x every 5 weeks

    JINYA Chicken Ramen*
    Sarah W.

    Jinya is my favorite ramen place and I always get the Jinya Chicken Ramen. It never disappoints. I also come here and get takeout sometimes, which is always quick and painless, especially if you order ahead. Vibes are always great and servers are always welcoming and kind. Will keep coming here until I'm no longer able to. Love it!

    one of my top go to places when craving ramen. flavorful ramen with delicious toppings. their pork chashu is tender with tons of flavor, i recommend getting any bowl that includes it! i also recommend the spicy miso umami as it's my favorite bowl, sadly it doesn't come with egg or pork chashu. i love getting their takoyaki as it's soft, fluffy, lots of sauce and delicious. a nice tip to know is that you can switch out what noodles come with your ramen bowl, i believe they have thick or thin! ambiance is giving date nice but could be a casual place to grab a bite to eat. service is always friendly but it can get a little loud when busy.

    I've pretty much been to every Jinya in Houston. What's good about this chain is their consistency. I always leave full & satisfied. This is my 2nd time at this location, the first time it was for a Yelp event. We came here for lunch and got a table right away, our server Vy was excellent. She was so kind & accommodating. I decided to order 1 Nikuman to share with my friend. It was soft fluffy but the inside was soggy. The filling was just fine. For our mains, I decided to get their Tonkotsu black & my friend got the spicy chicken ramen. The broth for my Tonkotsu was creamy & flavorful but it was a little too thick for my liking. The chashu was tendered and melt in your mouth & the egg was exactly how I want it; runny. My friend chicken ramen was very good, the broth was smooth with the right amount of spice. The chicken was soft and tendered. Overall, the food was a 4, but I'll give it a 5 because Vy's service that was provided was a1. The decor is modern & clean. I do have to say that this is the most spacious Jinya out of all of them. I hope when the Midtown location reopens that they make it to where it gives it more space. Every time I dine at that location it's like when they seat us, we are literally bunched up with another group that we don't even know. It can get awkward because we can hear their conversation and they can hear ours. The Spring Branch location offers a little more intimate experience. Will I come back? Yes.

    This review is specifically about there happy hour*…read more I came on a Friday afternoon with a colleague. This was my second time visiting. Parking- if you have the patience or the time, feel free to try your luck at street parking. But I valet for $10. But pretty sure the price increase at nighttime. Ambience- The decor is moody chic. There is a large patio, and bar seating. If you go for HH no need for resy. But if you come after they likely want a resy, or you have to wait depenon the night. There's a hostess stand of course as you walk in those large doors. The vibe seems more like a place you take on a first or second date. They have small tables scattered around the bar. Theres a dress code in the evening. Not a place to take a large group to socialize or meet other people for the first time. I think they try and make it lounge-like/party with a DJ at night too. Drinks- there menu for HH includes food and drinks from 4p to 7p. The server did recommend there flatbread, but we didn't eat. I started with The Kiss, there gin drink for $7 on HH. Then moved to The Fruit of the Earth also $7, which is smokey sweet, but then went back The Kiss. The 2nd Kiss, I had to pay regular price of $17 since it was after 7p. My colleague had the $5 Espresso Tini a few times during HH, which she liked. I think the HH drinks are smaller versions of there after 7p drinks, at least it seemed that way. Both the woman and eventually male server we had were both great, friendly service. Would I return? Only if another person I was meeting suggested it and really wanted to come.

There was a gentleman working on the flooring, furniture being disassembled and lots of construction equipment outside. The seeming owner or manager reassured us to come in, however as soon as we took a seat we learned that they closed at 10pm. Ironically there was a young man assembling a large sign that states "open until 10pm" to prop outside. The bartender offered to make us a drink and since we had driven here just for this spot (I would call it a coffee shop and not really a bar), we agreed. The Carajillos were $15 and sadly, batched.

The décor, wine list, menu, comfortable seating, and cozy atmosphere make it such a special spot. They offer wines for every taste and budget, and the staff is knowledgeable when asked for recommendations. That's why this is difficult for me to write. Despite visiting frequently, I've consistently found the customer service to be unwelcoming. The service has a strange tone, and it isn't limited to one employee they all seem to share the same indifferent, slightly annoyed demeanor. The experience feels less like genuine hospitality and more like, "You're here what can I get you?" On my most recent visit, others in my group noticed and commented on the same thing without any prompting from me. Since they had never been before, it confirmed that it wasn't just my perception. One small interaction captured the overall tone. We asked whether they happened to have a birthday candle, and an employee responded in an annoyed tone by pointing to the candle on our table which, realistically, no one would put on a birthday dessert. We completely understood that they might not have one; it wasn't an unreasonable expectation or request. A simple, friendly response like, "Unfortunately, we don't, but we do have some delicious desserts," would have been perfectly fine. It wasn't the answer that bothered us. it was the way we were made to feel for asking. It may seem like a small interaction, but great hospitality is built on small moments. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and inviting, but unfortunately, the service doesn't reflect that same feeling. People return to places where they feel welcomed and appreciated, especially in a city like Houston with so many wonderful food and wine options. I genuinely want The Library to thrive because it has everything else it needs to remain a true neighborhood favorite.

It's a narrow space resembling a Japanese outdoor bar. It's intimately lit and well decorated. We did have to wait for two spots to open up, but that didn't take too long The bartenders were friendly, professional, and efficient. We went on a Friday night (fairly late), and they had two dedicated bartenders The cocktails were fun and were beautifully crafted. Most were served in novelty glassware. You can order classic cocktails, but both Kanpai and Hando offer a variety of signature cocktails. Most having some sort of Japanese or Asian fusion. They have beer, wine, and extensive sake list, as well as green tea and other nonalcoholic options The cocktails were tasty. The only one I was iffy on was their Espresso martini. It was poured from a machine and I guess there were having issues with it. The presentation was phenomenal. There was a roasted marshmallow garnish. The drink itself was far too Smokey in flavor than I like, or at least in terms of my espresso martinis The Yuzu Kosho fries were incredible. The flavors really hit the spot. The Okinawa Potato salad was both questionable to looks and and to eat lol. This purple mound of potato's had an interesting taste, look, and consistency. It wasn't bad, just... interesting and new Some tips: If you can't find this spot from the street, look for Handos. It's part of this restaurant Ask the bartender about the happy hour menu. And most nights they're open until 12am, but on Fridays and Saturdays they are open until 2am If you order food online (technically from Hando's) you can get 10% off using code: HANDO10. This is part of their "Hando and Chill" special Cheers!!

    Very nice place to relax and have fun with friends in a beautiful garden, the drinks were very well…read moreprepared and delicious they have a good selection of different types of beer too my husband enjoy a dark beer. We didn't get to try the food but it seems that they have a good menu. Front parking is really small but they have a bigger parking lot in the back. Overall we had a really great and relaxing experience definitely we'd go back!

    Worcester's Annex is the cocktail bar component of Heights Bier Garten. I found myself here with…read morefriends during my first night in Houston, and since I'm a fan of cocktail bars I decided to check this place out as opposed to the beer. The vibes of WA were totally on. The outdoor area is shared space with the beer bar across the way, and they really created a nice space with multiple seating types and televisions. Inside the actual Annex there was standard bar seating as well as a few long tables. I really liked the decor - the bottles of liquor along the back of the bar created a nice focal point, and the low lighting combined with wood tones really set the tone. They have a vast selection of cocktails separated by flavors (smoky, sweet, tropical, etc.). We ultimately had three rounds and all of the drinks were quite good. The bartenders were great, they whipped the drinks up quickly and were friendly. Overall I had a great time at Worcester's Annex - definitely a place I would return to next time I'm in Houston.
