I got takeout vegan spicy creamy ramen and caramelized cauliflower with pine nuts and mint. The cauliflower was pretty bad. So oily and not "caramelized" at all. And not a single pine nut in the contained, which for 6 dollars included 5 cauliflower pieces. The ramen broth was tasty but the noodles had a thick gummy texture. I wasn't a fan of the other ingredients in the ramen either. Overall, a bust. read more

Where to start...amazingly patient staff with the greenhorns ordering ramen. The soups are full of depth and flavor, adding to our visit. It's a Japanese industrial vibe, very intimate and cozy. read more

While the food I was able to get was very tasty I was not at all impressed with the selection of dishes for people who do not eat meats like chicken/pork/beef. The shrimp ramen has pork broth and to make adjustments they would ring it up as a "BYOB" which would cost significantly more. I spent $18 on a BYOB that had noodles, the spicy broth, cabbage, bean sprouts & an egg. The food wasn't bad, I just don't think the price reflects the quality. read more

The creamy spicy vegan ramen was definitely not super spicy more of a warm kick. So creamy. Noodles were a great texture. Amazing flavor. VEGAN - So many vegan options! From my experience the go to veg/vegan ramen options are heavily mushroom based (not for me) but Jinya has gone above and beyond with their menu options. They have a huge selection of options with Impossible 'meat' or tofu with lots of veg. SERVICE - all of the staff was friendly and helpful and judgement free zone if you need a fork ATMOSPHERE - was pretty hip with a graffiti mural on the wall, fake plants everywhere, and a super cool wood feature above the bar. Way more than what I expected for a strip of chains on Dodge St. I'll be back to try the other Vegan options!! read more

A quick search for "best ramen in Omaha" led to my dinner at Jinya Ramen. I went on a weekend at 6:30PM and found it to be quite busy but was able to find a seat. Service is always quick and my waiter was happy to help provide suggestions for the group. Today, I got my go-to spicy tonkotsu.    Spicy Tonkotsu -Spicy tonkotsu ramen with sliced pork belly, scallion, fungus, bean sprouts and noodles -Delicious! I've had plenty of ramen and I'd say Jinya does a great job. The broth is rich and flavorful. The noodles were light, soft and chewy unlike other noodles that can be too dense Pork Gyoza -My favourite part of the night. The gyoza were crispy yet easy to bite into. The flavor of the meat filling was amazing. I'd recommend getting this!   Jinya Ramen was an excellent choice to get my fill of ramen. There's only a few good ramen restaurants in Omaha, so it got packed tonight. Also, their ramen is a bit pricier than I'm used to since there's few good quality ramen restaurant competition (previously only ate ramen on the west coast). Their service and the overall dining experience here was great! read more

I've previously been to JINYA on a date night a couple years ago and for takeout one dreary Covid lockdown night. So I know quality is usually pretty good. The place is clean and perfect vibes for a dinner with friends or family. Service was excellent as always. Presentation of the food was a bell on par with what I have previously experienced. The jalapeño butter corn did not meet our expectations. Ended up, mixing it into my tonkatsu black. The caramelized cauliflower was better than the corn. Very strong lemon essence to it. The tonkatsu was OK. It wasn't as spicy as I remembered. I know on the menu it doesn't give an option for spice level because it says it's going to be spicy. So I was a little disappointed in that but I'm not gonna make a big deal. It was fresh and warm. My youngest had the dumpling one. I did not catch which one it was specifically name wise. But he got full on the dumplings fast and had to take the Ramen home. My aunt got the salmon tacos and a quinoa salad not pictured. She ate everything on both of her plates so it must've been really good. Lol I cannot comment as I personally don't enjoy quinoa so I wouldn't try it. We will definitely be back to give them another. Try and try some other small plates next time. We love a good ramen hang. read more

Dreary winter weather getting you down? I have the cure....pipin' hot ramen, fried chicken, and cold beer. This place has it all, and it's all delicious. Bigger than it looks from the outside, there is some limited booth seating, table seating, and bar seats. The service is phenomenal, the kitchen manager interacted with our kids... gave them candy suckers and was so kind to them, way above and beyond. On a busy night, it's hard to find good service, but Jinya's staff knocked it out of the park. Tried Spicy Miso Umami ramen, original tonkatsu ramen, shrimp wonton ramen, with some edamame and fried chicken. Everything was phenomenal...shrimp wonton was creamy with seafood hints, maybe our favorite. The spicy miso wasn't overly spicy, but a nice kick. Original tonkatsu was classic; a great choice for someone looking to warm their stomach without the spice. Overall great experience, will be back on another cold Omaha blustery day! read more

Gotta stop here on every trip to Omaha. Great service and good food! My favorite are the spicy tuna tacos.

Service was excellent. Food was very good and it was not crowded... Recommend the poke bowl...

Jinya is my go to ramen place in omaha although it's not completely authentic and traditional it's probably the best ramen you can get out here. Food comes out pretty fast and all the broth options delish. The crispy chicken karaage is also a must if you like your meals with an app read more

Came in on a quiet Tuesday afternoon. We missed the lunch hour rush. The place was almost empty with a couple of tables with guests. We got seated quickly and placed our orders. The ambience of the place was cozy and welcoming. I got the Jinya Tonkatsu Ramen. The dish was decent, nothing to wow about. The boiled egg was poorly peeled with missing egg whites but of course, it's the partially cooked yolk we prized. The serving was on a smaller portion and with just 3 bites, you're done. It's one of those been there done that places. read more

I am visiting my adorable grandma here with my mom and husband. Everyone can agree on Jinya, and I decided to order delivery yesterday for lunch. We had a relatively complicated order with little special requests, and everything arrived well-packaged and accurate! Both mom and gma wanted the veggie ramen but with chicken broth, one with tofu on the side and one with brussel sprouts on the side. Eric R. wanted spicy tonkotsu but with thin noodles not thick noodles, and I ordered the karaage special ramen with a side of brussel sprouts. The broth was packaged separately from the veggies/noodles/proteins for everyone and each bowl was labeled. The toppings were on the side, and my karaage was on the side also, thus staying crisp as fried chicken should be. Mine had half a seasoned egg too, yummy! I tend to expect picky orders to have issues but this one was solid. We have enjoyed eating inside pre-pandemic when visiting Omaha so I will continue to support the restaurant when I am in the great state of Nebraska (there is no place like it)! read more

Tasty ramen, promptly served. That was my Jinya experience. The location, a strip mall on Dodge, is deceiving. Jinya suffers from shared parking and popular neighbors, but if you get in, you'll be pleased with the service and your meal. Ramen is their focus, but the dud have appetizers enough to feed my wife, who goes to ramen "for me." They also have rice bowls and other tasties. Check out the menu. Another location I'll try again. read more

Yum so good. Took to go and it was done early and delicious. Would recommend and will go back.

I've had the ramen at Rizin and Yoshi Ya and then I think Jinya might be my favorite. Don't be deterred by the tiny entrance at the end of the strip mall, the place is actually very spacious and deep and tastefully appointed. While I've been here previously for a date night with my husband, I personally chose to go here today for Mother's day because I knew it wouldn't be as busy as the brunch places. Also, it was a rainy/dreary morning and ramen is a perfect antidote for such a case. We started off with an order of edamame, gyoza, and fried chicken thighs. Everything was delicious- edamame was ya know...edamame, the gyoza had a nice ginger flavor with it, and the fried chicken thighs paired well with the teriyaki sauce. I got the OG Ramen and it was super filling and flavorful! The thing that stood out about this meal was the service. We technically had two servers and the male, in particular, was extremely attentive and accommodating. That says a lot because one of our kids was being particularly difficult. Changing her mind, complaining about the food, and spending half the meal with her face to her knees. They were gracious and even my oldest daughter noted that the service was above average. We left a tip accordingly to show our appreciation. Thanks Jinya for putting up with our crazy crew! read more

Great happy hour menu! My husband is scared of a lot of food but he really enjoyed everything he tried here. We are both wimps with spicy, but there are multiple options without spice. Serve was great, space is clean, food was great, we will keep coming back! Off 72nd and Dodge, great location! read more

We came on a Saturday ~545pm and the place was packed except for the hightop/bar seating. We opted for the hightop. When we arrived we were shortly thereafter greated by all staff in Japanese (it seems sometimes they did this other times they didn't based on seeing other parties get seating$. For food, we had the spicy tontaktsu and spicy miso ramen. Both were generous portions and had a good flavor. I think the tontaktsu was a bit light on the meat (I think 2 pieces) but still good. We also tried the seaweed salad, pork bun, gyoza and fried chicken. Based on other pork buns I've, this was one of the more expensive ($5 for 1), and the bao consistency was different than I've had in the past. The gyoza had a great flavor and I would get these again. The frier chicken gad a great flavor - I think it could have used a spicy mayo or some sauce. As to service, it was spotty. It started strong, but when we needed some more water, we didn't see our server for a while. read more

The inside is also very cozy & modern. I ordered the Slurp Up Cilantro Chicken Ramen & it was delicious and full of flavor. Highly recommend! Very good service & they gave my brother a delicious dessert for his birthday. Great place for the fam to have dinner!

Had that noodle craving HARD. I've heard of the franchise before, so I was very curious to check it out! Apps was the Jinya Bun. Slightly sweet for my taste, BUT the pork belly inside was out-of-this-world tender! Staff was super nice and attentive but sadly had my original order of ramen wrong. But no matter because the Tonkatsu Black was delicious! I added some spice and bean sprouts, and man, was it good! Deep broth taste and noodles cooked to perfection. Add a glass of DRAFT Sapporo and you have one happy girl~ read more

Quick service, delicious food, many options for those with food intolerances. I have no complaints and would go back to JINYA whether if back visiting in Omaha or if in another city. I am interested to try an actual ramen next time. The others in my group loved their ramen, and the portions were huge. The pork wontons were delicious as well. I wouldn't necessarily get this rice bowl again because I didn't love the impossible "meat" - it had a taste I just wasn't fond of. Once again though, I really appreciate the variety of options on the menu and clarity for those with dietary restrictions. Service was one of the best I've had in a while too. Very quick and efficient, very kind. read more

We were looking for a ramen spot that had authentic ramen like we had in Japan. This hit the spot minus a few small discrepancies (meat sliced thicker for example). Our gyoza was served very hot with great tasting dipping sauce. Our server was friendly, but the manager was super friendly. We visited with her for a while discussing the delicious Japanese food we miss so much. Our ramen broth was flavorful, meat was tender, and the toppings were plentiful. Overall, I can't wait to go back! read more

Now that I've come here a few times it's safe to say I enjoy getting ramen here. The menu isn't too extensive but has just enough variety to satisfy even the most picky eaters. My boyfriend and I love the tonkatsu black ramen. It's a rich taste with nori, pork, and a soft boiled egg to boot. The flavor is full and tasty. I also love that when you eat inside you have the option of getting more noodles added to your bowl if you need! The third time I came here I tried the salmon mini tacos and though they were small they were full enough of taste and crunch to be worth trying. I'm still eager to try out their happy hour at some point and give the pork bun a try. The atmosphere is open and fun. The variety of eating areas makes it a little different. I also like the decor and paintings. It kind of makes you think you've stepped out of Omaha and are visiting someplace new. Since this place has opened it has certainly made a name for itself. Especially now during the cooler months when Ramen is a welcome dish to eat! read more

First things first...I'm a fan! That being stated...there was a bit of a wait when we stopped by, and there isn't really a lot of space so it was a bit awkward when a gaggle of folks are just standing around the entrance/bar area. Now for the good stuff: Ambiance = I like it! Ramen (Tonkotsu Black) = really good! California Poke Bowl = Great...but even better with spicy mayo I just wished they had more broth on their ramen. One of the better tonkotsu flavors around the area. We'll definitely go back. read more

A very good first visit to this somewhat new Ramen Bar off of Dodge. Greeted as you enter and the receptionist welcomes you in Japanese and the staff echos the greeting as you enter the dining area. The decor of the place is new modern with numerous wood accents throughout. Good music playing in the background. The staff is hustling to take care of all customers. I had a great server; Brittney who was entertaining, engaging and informative especially as it relates to the various choices you have on the menu. Went with the spicy pork ramen. You can choose from three levels of spiciness (mild, med, hot). I went with medium and it still had a pretty good kick. Good taste overall. Staff checked on me multiple times and asked how to everything was. A really good dining area experience. I will be back. Hope you all enjoy it as well. read more

Great vibes, good background music, lots of options for solo diners such as the ramen bar or the actual bar. Fast and kind service. This was my first time ever having ramen so I opted for the recommended black ramen on the menu. It was delicious. It's not spicy so if you're looking for spicy, consider adding spicy toppings since you can add to the bowls from their ala carte toppings selection. The broth was salty, the pork was fall apart tender and the noodles were cooked perfectly. The pork gyoza was a delicious appetizer as well and the lychee wine was sweet and yummy. read more

Wow! This beat my expectations by leaps and bounds. I got the mild version of the spicy chicken ramen. The spiciness was exactly right for my taste. The flavor was absolutely outstanding. The chicken was nice and tender. The spinach and sprouts had just the right texture. The service was lightning fast. I stopped in during busy dinner hours, and in spite of how busy it was, my order was taken within a couple of minutes and being seated and my dish arrived within five minutes. The cleanliness was top notch, with the staff frequently cleaning tables and chairs as patrons came and left. And the lighting was good! One of my biggest pet peeves is darkly lit restaurants, and this place was nicely lit. What a fantastic place, I will be returning on my next trip to Omaha. read more

I'm such a snob that I can't give Jinya a 5-star review simply because it's a chain. Not to say it wasn't super good. Or that there aren't other chains I love. It's just not as great as some local ramen spots we have. But. It is really, really, good. Don't get me wrong. I did not care for the constant "welcome yells" personally. I did care for the elevated seating with foot rests to accommodate shorties like me. They also have WIFI and some "non ramen" items. But the pace of service wasn't really as quick as the fast casual concept would make you believe. So, yeah. Good ramen. Chain. Not really fast casual. Ultimately tasty. read more

I've thought about this ramen for nine months. No exaggeration. New Year's Eve this year I was in Atlanta and found the vegan ramen on the menu of JINYA ramen Bar on Yelp and have thought about how delicious it was ever since. As someone with a seafood/shellfish allergy, I usually steer clear of ramen to play it safe unless I can find a vegan offering. JINYA's spicy creamy vegan ramen is not an afterthought on the menu; it's packed with flavor via noodles, scallions, black garlic oil, mushrooms, tofu and some other magic yet to be determined. After searching their locations list a few months ago, I noticed Omaha on the list and knew I would be passing through in a few months (yes, this meal was planned out months in advance ). We called in the order for carryout and it was ready within ten minutes and packaged beautifully. The staff at this location was extra careful with my allergy and Brittany was very friendly when she checked me out at the front. Overall, a very positive experience and reminder of how delicious this ramen is. read more

JINYA has finally made its way to Omaha, so blessed! The restaurant is modern and has the West Coast ambiance. I'm surprised with its extensive menu. We got Black Tonkatsu, Tonkatsu, summer Watermelon & Cucumber drinks, and panna cotta. Loved the rich broth from Sprouting Up Tonkatsu and slightly less heavy from black tonkatsu. The noodles are chewy and well seasoned; I love how they have both thick noodles and thin noodles for a particular broth. I prefer thin noodles better because I could taste the texture and chewiness. Service is attentive, fast, and helpful. To choose between Jinya and Ika: Jinya has my vote read more
