JINYA Ramen Bar - TrailHead

We stopped by for an early dinner, and even then there was already a wait. Luckily, since it was just the two of us, we were able to grab seats at the bar-top counter instead of waiting for a table. A small downside was that the bar tables are pretty tiny, and the chairs don’t have hooks to hang a purse, which made things feel a little cramped. I ordered the Spicy Creamy Ramen, and it was delicious! I’m not someone who enjoys extremely spicy food, but the spice level was just right enough heat without overpowering the flavors. The ramen noodles are thick and have a great chewy texture. My partner ordered the Chicken Chashu, which he also enjoyed, but his favorite part was the Old Fashioned. He’s already talking about coming back just for another one! The only thing I’d recommend improving is how the ramen bowls are served. Because they’re so hot, our server had to place his thumb inside the rim of the bowl to carry it, and I noticed his thumb accidentally touched the hard-boiled egg in my partner’s ramen. I’m sure it wasn’t intentional, but it wasn’t very sanitary. Finding a different way to handle the bowls would make the dining experience even better. Overall, the food was ex

Always looking for a great ramen place & this is not it. The hostess did a great job! Our server however took over 5 minutes to greet us. I went back to the host station & asked about our server, she was surprised & apologetic. Our server just then greeted my daughter & said to me when I approached, “There you are.” There I am, are you for real. Now the food. If you’re looking for the 2/10 cucumber salad to be refreshing it’s not unfortunately. Salty & crying for a sweet vinegar element to balance the flavors. 6/10 The Gyoza was fine not great. 6/10 Birria Ramen was good at first then when the cilantro runs out it’s just salty. The noodles were cooked well & were good, it just needs the flavors to be balanced 7/10 Pork Chashu bowl was good just a lot of mushrooms. The rice bowl came out first then I had to wait 4 minutes before my meal came out so I’m just sitting there waiting without our server saying anything . I won’t be back. It’s just too salty & unprofessional.

The Flying Harvest ramen was beautiful before I mixed it so the photo doesn’t do it justice but we had a wonderful first visit at Jinya! Nick was a great server, friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu. So glad he recommended the Matcha Tiramisu! It was delicious!!

The food was fantastic, and the atmosphere had a cool vibe, although it was incredibly loud. My daughter opted for the kids’ meal, which was generous but lacked a drink. This is a great little place to treat ourselves. If I weren’t concerned about the high sodium content in this cuisine, we would frequent it more often.
