JINYA Ramen Bar - Midtown

This is my new Favorite ramen spot! I got the matcha lemonade, vegan bun and the creamy vegetable ramen with thin noodles my server Romeo was amazing. He was very attentive and kind. I love the atmosphere of the establishment as well. Low light, moody…dope playlist which I would love to snag. I also loved the greeting they did for each customer that comes in. Very traditional and community feeling. I felt so welcome. 🤗 10000/10 reccomend

I was really looking forward to trying this restaurant, especially after seeing so many highly rated reviews. Unfortunately, the Premium Tonkotsu Red ramen fell flat for me—the broth was just okay, the pork was bland, and the portion only included two very small pieces. For the price point, the portion didn’t quite feel worth it compared to other ramen spots I’ve tried. On a positive note, the salmon poke tacos were delicious, the ambiance was great, and the service was quick and attentive. I really wanted to love the ramen, but it just didn’t meet expectations.

Jinya curated my top five ramen list. We ordered the Spicy Vegan Ramen and the Spicy Chicken Ramen, both of which were exquisite. The vegan ramen had plain tofu, absolutely no flavour. I prefer fried or at least sautéed. The Brussels sprouts were also fried, and we enjoyed them. Had to wait over 30 minutes on a Friday night for a table for 2. There was no option for a reservation.

I had a wonderful visit to this bar! The atmosphere is really interesting—both beautiful and full of unique design elements. There’s a large communal table, perfect for bringing friends and enjoying a stylish gathering, while smaller tables along the sides make the space feel cozy and intimate. The food is delicious and fresh. I’m a big fan of Japanese cuisine, and I highly recommend trying the crab salad. It’s wonderfully balanced with a hint of lime and crisp greens, all served with a crunchy galette. Truly a delightful experience!

Had the most amazing ramen experience at JINYA! The Birria ramen was perfectly flavorful and satisfying and everything was served hot and fresh. Huge shoutout to Aika, our server. She was attentive, friendly and made the experience even better. Definitely coming back soon! 🍜❤️
