4 /5 Bennie R: Just left JINYA Ramen Bar and overall had a good experience. Our server, Rachel, was attentive and kind—she wasn’t originally assigned to us, but she stepped in and really took care of us, which we appreciated.
We ordered three appetizers: the octopus balls were decent (not my favorite flavor-wise), the spicy creamy shrimp tempura was sooo good (A++), and the pork gyoza was my second favorite—you really can’t go wrong with potstickers.
For drinks, I had the Smoky Old Fashioned (the smoke made it taste a bit weird for me) and The Manhattan, which was very good. For my main, I ordered the spicy ramen, but it wasn’t spicy at all and could’ve used more flavor.
That said, I’d still come back to try more items. Service was great, and there’s definitely more on the menu I want to explore. Also, please make a reservation.
