We chose JINYA for Father’s Day, and it exceeded expectations in every way. Our group of ten was seated immediately—huge plus. The atmosphere was fun and energetic, and the service was spot on. I started with the Smokey Wakashi Old Fashioned, and it was perfectly balanced. The branded orange peel was such a cool detail! For dinner, I ordered the Wonton Ramen with extra corn and green onions. It was absolutely delicious—flavorful broth, fresh toppings, and perfectly cooked dumplings. The rest of our group was just as impressed. The vegan Impossible Bowl got high praise, and someone called the curry “perfect.” Great portion sizes all around. From the stylish setting to the standout food and drinks, JINYA made Father’s Day feel extra special. Highly recommend!

I’m from Japan and I grew up in Tokyo and it was the best Japanese Ramen noodles store in US. Because it was reasonable price! If you have been in Japan, y’all should know ramen noodles are reasonable price. And try crispy chicken! It’s totally different southern style crispy chicken. But it’s good!

I loved my first experience . I am also glad I ventured out today to try something new! My Matcha Lemonade Mock Tail was soooo delicious and refreshing. The food was seasoned to perfection. I honestly did not add anything to my dishes. I am glad I was able to substitute some things on my bowl which made it even more enjoyable. The Vegan plant based bun incredibly tasty . I will return and I am bringing my family and friends ⭐️

We loved eating here!! We hit Athens for a quick trip and needed something delicious for lunch. Finding a parking spot proved to be the only issue we had! The waiter was super friendly and very prompt. The food came out quickly and staggard appropriately so we could enjoy our appetizers. The amount was so generous o ended up having to take some home!

Stumbled upon this restaurant downtown and it is definitely worth a try. Absolutely loved the service and the food was great! The menu offers a plethora of protein options and accommodates those who are vegetarian/vegan.

Absolutely delicious! I waited a good few weeks for the chance to come here (due to external factors) and it was well worth it! My server - Ronald - was constantly checking in on us and tending to our every need. I think there was maybe one time where my glass hit empty. The food came out pretty quickly, the seating is comfortable, and I love the atmosphere. I had the Jinya Black Tonkotsu Ramen, an order of takoyaki, and the matcha tiramisu. Starting from the ramen, the presentation was absolutely beautiful, like the bowl itself was shimmering. The broth was a golden brown and it went down really smooth. The spices, pork, seaweed, and egg all changed the flavor of each bite spectacularly. I've never had takoyaki before, and the first bite blew me away. It was slightly chewy - as I'd expect from octopus - and the blend of sweet and savory is something to die for. Out of curiosity, I tried the matcha tiramisu for dessert - which Ronald was gracious enough to hold for me until I was done with my entree. Although I have a low tolerance for bitterness, I still thought this dessert was heavenly. The matcha contrasts with the rest of the dessert to make an amazing blend that never strays too far in the direction of bitter or sweet. Overall, a fantastic restaurant I would love to visit once more. 10/10

The taste of the ramen was pretty good, but the noodle was a bit undercooked for my liking. Was unfortunately sat directly under the ceiling ac unit and caught a drop of water from the ac. Nice service.

Philip gave incredible service while we were out celebrating a birthday. He went above and beyond in every way! Couldn’t be happier. Thank you!!!!!

Nice location. Not many people. Tables a bit close together for my comfort. Fantastic student waitress. She rocks (inside joke in case she reads this)! First time at a Junta. Good, comforting food. Quite expensive for the portion size.
