My first introduction to ramen and this place is phenomenal. The broth had so much flavor it was unbelievable. Wasn't to salty or to spicy . I got a level 3 to start but easily added more spice. Noodles were very filling and the seasoned egg...Read More

What can I say about Jinya other than its my favorite ramen place. For me, no other ramen place has matched up to Jinya until now. Jinya at San Jose has a good patio seating with a table fire and ceiling heaters. These made the seating...Read More

I visited this place twice. The service is good and quick. I tasted 2 different vegetarian ramen(both spicy). I liked the spicy creamy vegan ramen better. I'd have liked tofu to be fried/cooked . The tofu they put is super bland. Their outdoor patio has...Read More

Excellent ramen place with flavorful food. Loved the vibe inside and the food turned out to be delicious. We are vegetarians so tried their impossible gyoza, impossible bun, flying vegan harvest ramen and spicy creamy vegan ramen. It’s little on the expensive side but worth...Read More

Really good ramen! We tried one vegan and one vegetarian option for ramen. Both had their unique styles and appealed to different tastes. Their portions are pretty wholesome and only one ramen was enough for a complete lunch. The seating is pretty limited in this...Read More

Came for lunch on a hot day and sat outside. It was still pleasant with the misters. The birra ramen was amazing, really full of flavor. Everything else was really good too and I’ll definitely be coming back for my ramen fix.

We were sat quickly and received great service from Katie I believe and the other server who was working. They worked together to make sure everyone was taken care of. Brussels sprouts kinda lost their touch from previous visits but everything else was good.

I like the food choices they offered. Their takoyaki is so savory and toppings like the seasoned egg was as delicious. Their fusion dish, birria ramen was full of flavor. Definitely worth coming in.
