JINYA Ramen Bar - Buckhead

I was finally ready to try ramen and I had no idea where to go. Furthermore, I had no idea what I wanted to eat. I asked my Yelpers how to choose a ramen dish, then it came time to choose a location. As I was in the Buckhead area, I texted my brother who I know eats ramen and asked him where he usually goes in the area and he pointed me to JINYA Ramen Bar. He also told me that the chicken ramen was his favorite. Naturally, I had to go to JINYA Ramen Bar because my brother said it was good. LoL!! Scrolling through the JINYA Ramen Bar website, I decided on the Spicy Chicken. I placed my order and headed to the restaurant. The location was easy to find as it sits in the plaza. Walking inside the restaurant, the ambiance was calming and dim. The surroundings were moderately toned and made me

So much has changed for the positive for this business. Haven't been in about 3yrs, but they're still here! They've expanded and still kept the same ambiance. The menu has been added to and it's delicious. Our sever, Kennedy was great all around. She was courteous, on point but not in your face and super helpful. I highly recommend for the service, food and their longevity in this market/industry. We had small plates of edamamme, crispy chicken, and dumplings. Noodle bowls, Black Premium Bowl and the newest Noodle bowl -Tan Tan Men. Filling and delicious. Almost forgot, Hibiscus Mule was really good.

I have been searching EVERYWHERE for great ramen after leaving Japan with high expectations and miserably failed.... UNTIL I came here! this is THE ONE! everything was seasoned so well, hot and fresh, perfect texture and spice level that I crave. Ian was my server he was very attentive, suggested great options on the menu and asked for feedback. His energy was unmatched he was freaking AWESOME, so shout out to you Ian! I came here 2 days ago and i'm already back i'm sitting at the ramen bar as I write this lol You guys have a long time customer as long as i'm in ATL, if you haven't PLEASE TRY THIS PLACE!

Nothing like getting home from putting your dog down and ordering Raman just to get the wrong order/someone else's order. I ordered the chicken wonton raman and got tofu Raman. I cannot stand tofu. Nor do I like raw onions. However, I was so hungry from it being such an emotional day that I took the tofu out and decided to eat someone else's meal anyways. Thankfully they ordered a side of corn to put in there. I wish I would have gotten the wontons or some sort of protein but its fine. I have to say I really enjoyed the broth that the tofu Raman uses. This might be my new go to... minus the tofu and onions. 1 star for not double checking to see if the order was right but ill give 5 stars because you made me try something new and, for the most part, I enjoyed it.

I ordered a soup and found myself chewing on a large green insect. That’s it- there’s really nothing more to add. A huge green insect. Photos attached! By the way, the restaurant didn’t seem particularly shocked or surprised… so keep that in mind if you plan on eating there….
