    The atmosphere of the restaurant is really great. The staff are also very nice and friendly. I have not had much of that cuisine before and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The food did take fairly long and I did notice it taking long for people around me. It is also normally very busy especially on the weekends. People do happen to be curious about restroom situations so here is my take on it. It was so dark in the restroom. It was clean and well kept but just really dark. The last thing I have to say about this is that the faucet of the sink it so close to the counter, you can barely get your hands wet to wash them. Overall I think this was a great place and I strongly recommend.

    The food here is pretty good although appetizers were smaller than I expected. The service here was the best I ever had. GIVE MICHEAL MORE HOURS HE DESERVES ITT. It is disheartening that such a great person is begging to work more.

    Day 1: This place was a welcome surprise. I was looking for a late lunch. I walked in and just before seating me, the hostess yells what sounds like “earshay” and everyone else says it, too! Cool welcome…I sat at the bar and was immediately greeted by Mason. I asked what I should try as a first timer. He recommended the Spicy Creamy Vegan and the Spicy Creamy Shrimp Tempura. The Spicy Creamy Vegan Shrimp Tempura reminded me of a Bang Bang Shrimp, but these were huge and a lot more flavorful. The balance of the spicy with the crispiness of the tempura and flavor of the shrimp was really nice. Shortly after beginning to enjoy my shrimp, my ramen arrived. I like how each person I encountered seemed so glad to be there. I must say, it was refreshing. The Spicy Creamy Ramen was simply beautiful and smelled amazing. Mason showed me how to use my chop sticks and spoon to lift the ramen from the bottom of the bowl to mix it and even out the temperature of the dish. From my first bite to my last was absolutely scrumptious. And the sweetest thing — there was a cute little message at the bottom of the bowl…”No Ramen. No Life.” But that’s not all. When you leave, they yell something that sounds like “airigotto”. I have to warn you: The portions are extremely filling. If you want a great time, with great people, and great food, you absolutely must visit Mason at the bar at Jinya! Day 2: I came back and got the Jalapeño Buttered Corn, Crispy Chicken, Sautéed Broccolini, Caramelized Cauliflower, Spicy Creamy Shrimp Tempura (again), and Spicy Creamy Vegan Ramen (again). The Jalapeño Buttered Corn was sweet corn sliced off of the cob with the kick of fresh jalapeño. Loved this! The Crispy Chicken was really good. Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The Sautéed Broccolini was tasty. It was not over cooked and had a slight crunch o the stalk. Great flavors and very fresh-tasting. The Caramelized Cauliflower was my favorite of today. The pine nuts and garlic really set this off. You just have to taste it. My bartender today was the amazing Dillon! Truly a sweetheart and super patient as I attempted to try their whole menu. Stay tuned for my next Jinya adventure…again, if you love great service, great food, great conversation, you know where to go— Jinya Ramen Bar for the win!

    First time coming here and had a great experience. My friend and his girlfriend come here often and told me it was good so I wanted to give it a try. Food was great as was the service, we sat at the bar with Alexa serving us. Definitely plan on coming back!

    The BEST Ramen bar EVER! It was my first time here, and let’s just say I will definitely be back. EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING. Our beautiful waitress was AWESOME. Ask for Xinhma. She was VERY knowledgeable, helpful, and sweet.

    Lanna was an amazing server. She was very knowledgeable and helped with every question I had easily and made great recommendations. I enjoyed everything so I’m glad that I trusted her opinion :) 10/10 service, would definitely come again. The only thing I don’t like about Jinya is how loud the music is lol. Highly recommend the Hidden Figures cocktail it was really good, especially if you like sweet drinks

  • 5/5 Karen A. 9 months ago on Google
    Marcel was literally AMAZING! He was super attentive and entertaining as well. The food was great, but Marcel was the STAR of the show. He’s the kind of person who would save a kitten from a burning building. I would trust this man with every single surviving polar bear. 11/10, would come back.

    Definitely was a great first time experience! My waiter, Michael, made sure I knew exactly what I was getting as a first timer and also made some suggestions based on my preferences for flavor!! Awesome work! Will definitely be back again

    Second time here and both times had great experiences. Our server Michael was very attentive and kept our waters full. Food came out very fast. Will be back.

    Our server, Hannah R, was so sweet and did a great job. All of our food was delicious and her drink recommendations were perfect. We never had to wait for anything with her attentive service!

  • 5/5 Tiffani 11 months ago on Google
    I really enjoyed this restaurant. I was visiting from out of town, and my friends and I went here to hang out and eat appetizers. The staff was great, and our waitress (Dynesha) took really good care of us. I highly recommend this place. The food was amazing and the atmosphere is great. We sat outside so we could soak up the sounds and people watch.

    Anna was AMAZING! Definitely made our first time experience a blast. She was very attentive and personable. The vibes, food, and drinks are top notch here. Definitely recommend.

    It was my family's first time visiting this establishment and our server, Michael, was extremely patient and took the liberty of explaining the menu to us. He was efficient and kind whilst taking our orders and we greatly appreciated his service!! The food was extremely delicious and I loved the opportunity to taste authentic ramen. Will come again!

    Absolutely love every trip to Jinya. Amazing food and amazing staff. Modern vibe with music and chatter, indoor and outdoor seating. Skyler was our server this round and she was very sweet! Never disappointed!

  • 5/5 Ascha V. 6 months ago on Google
    Our server Michael was awesome! It was pretty packed and it was a Saturday night so that’s to be expected, but he made sure to check on us every 10-15 minutes. Super nice guy and a great server. I recommend this place to anyone who enjoys ramen, the food was amazing (as always) and the portions were absolutely filling; we always have enough left for leftovers and that’s very appreciated. I also love the variety that the kids meal brings. My daughter can be picky, she loves noodles but she’s not fond of very many vegetables and her meal came with a bowl of chicken ramen, chicken nuggets, chicken & rice, French fries and a scoop of ice cream. She always enjoys eating here with us and that’s super important to our family. So all in all, the food was a 5/5, the service was 5/5, and the atmosphere was also 5/5. Highly recommend. (:

    Delicious food and drinks!! Dynesha was an amazing host and made the entire experience at Jinya even better. If you are looking for a great place to eat with a great environment and menu, this is where it is in Baton Rouge!

    JINYA Ramen Bar is a family favorite and we will be returning. We were on our way to see a movie in Perkins Rowe and had just left Barnes and Nobles when our daughters asked could we stop there because they love noodles. It smelled great and the atmosphere was inviting. We all ordered different things along with appetizers. My daughters like to be adventerous so they tried the octopus and calamari I believe and they enjoyed the texture of it. The drinks for adults are AMAZING and great to sip on before, during and after the meal. I also love that our server was attentive, suggested that we try the cripsy chicken with our Ramen and that it paired well with the taste. The spiciness and homemade taste was what I was looking for and perfect for the time of year we went. My only draw back was that we asked to sit outside, the space was great, but the cigarette smell while we were eating for those who could smoke outside while eating at their table was offputting and reduced the quaility of my meal as I could taste the smell as I was eating and it wasn't the best to have my children around nicotine smells so close to our food. We usually like to sit outside as a family to enjoy the scenery and ambience of fresh air, but having the smell of smoke interferes with the taste of JINYA and my nose is highly affected by any strong smells after having 5 children, and just having my daughters breathe that in so close because the people we were next to a few tables down was smoking them back to back was the only negative part, which is why I still give JINYA 5 stars. It's just sad next time we eat there we will have to choose inside seating to not be near smoking.

    The Impossible Taco is my favorite appetizer! Totally went ham this time with all the toppings and customizations, but definitely 1,000% worth the long wait since it was a Friday night (thanks to the bartender, Jayla, for checking on my order twice, by the way). Super huge serving that definitely lasts 2 meals. The 3 sauces on the spice dish (you can ask for) are also very, very great to add, even if you just want a bit more flavor and not much heat. Also, I’m vegetarian and the options were hefty and flavorful for sure. Thanks!

    Chase was awesome. He has a contagious smile. The food suggestion was on point. Very delicious. The restaurant was beautiful and inviting. The restroom was neat and clean. Please give thanks to the chefs. Definitely will be back.

  • 5/5 Rainey L. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a yummy and cool place! Was recommended by a friend and wasn’t disappointed. We sat in the bar section and was served quickly. Our waitress Alexa was fantastic and so friendly!! Loved the 2010 ramen especially with the thickness of the noodles I got. Great stop to eat at in Perkins Rowe!!

  • 5/5 Crystal D. 1 year ago on Google
    This was my first time visiting a Ramen Bar. All I can say is WOW!! Everything was delicious and very fresh. Alyssa was phenomenal and knowledgeable about the menu. Her recommendations was spot on. Next time you are out shopping in Perkins Rowe, do yourself a favor, stop in at Jinya Ramen and ask for Alyssa.

    This Jinya location is veryyyy small compared to others so be prepared to be on their waitlist if you go during peak times (lunch/dinner hours). I do like how they still seat you even though your entire party isn’t there yet. Some places do not seat you until everyone is there. I highly recommend eating the Jinya pork bun, takoyaki (presentation is beautiful but more batter than octopus which kinda sucks, still decent to eat though!), spicy chicken ramen, tonkotsu black ramen, tonkotsu spicy ramen, and salmon poke mini tacos. I suggest adding green onions, corn, bamboo shoots, nori, and an egg to your ramen! Service is pretty good especially for a place consistently steady from open to close. The ramen broth is kind of salty compared to other locations, and they are out of stuff more frequent than usual so be careful with that. Other than those factors, this is a relatively good Jinya location!

    Food was good, but we went on a Wednesday and they were out of several items--wontons, seaweed salads and crispy rice. Also, the music was loud enough that normal conversations across the table were difficult (I get it, I'm old, but save that volume for clubs). Service was very responsive and the pork was super tasty.

    Ive been to this location plenty of times, this is the first time I’ve received unbelievable service like this!! Blayze was amazing!!! They were very attentive and quick, they had a great personality that radiated through the mask!! I appreciate this experience because it’s been a long week and I had almost lost hope in kindness altogether. Our food was amazing as always….thank you again Blayze for a great experience, we hope to see you on our next visit!!

  • 5/5 Stonny H. 1 year ago on Google
    Dynesha is a very great server. She knew the menu and offered advice on things to try. The food was hot and the drinks were cold. I will be back. I hope to have her as my server on the next visit.

  • 5/5 Hal T. 1 year ago on Google
    Found this place in a pinch after a late arrival into town. Got on their waitlist on the way there and was promptly seated. Food was amazing server was awesome. Very reasonably priced. We both ate the Flying Harvest.

  • 4/5 Dominick M. 2 years ago on Google
    Wasn’t a fan at first but it grew in me. Had to wait a bit to be seated and it was super loud inside. We sat outside though. Reasonably priced. Decent service. Ramen was excellent. Had to scan the thing on phone for menu. Ordered tonkotsu black, umami miso ramen, and Jinya Bun. Both ramen were excellent. The bun was kind of weird, great texture but it had mayonnaise on it.

  • 5/5 The Dead T. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was amazing and the service was on par! I never had ramen like this before and I was thoroughly satisfied with my experience. I will definitely come back again. But if you plan on coming during busy times be prepared to wait buts definitely worth the wait.

  • 5/5 Nikka N. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was delicious! Only complaint I have is that the drinks (fountain drinks) and tea were not good at all. But for the food I’m definitely in love!

  • 3/5 Tammy G. 2 years ago on Google
    Atmosphere is fun and cute inside, food was alright. The broth was lacking in depth and flavor but it was ok. The karaage wasn't as crispy as it should have been but the flavor was good. The service was a bit off, the waitress focused more on the two guys in our party and left me for last which is fine but weird. Overall, if you've never had Japanese ramen before, this would be a decent spot. But if you've had the real deal, it's a bit lacking.

    Hi y'all! Long time customer, first time reviewer LOL! I love Jinya! I've been here a couple times and brought my friend here today. We had a great experience as always. Our server Johnny was great too!!! Will be back soon :)

  • 5/5 Kodi L. W. 1 year ago on Google
    Gluten free, dairy free and vegan options available. It was very good and I couldn’t even attempt to finish my noodle bowl! Staff was super friendly accommodating my allergy questions. Hannah my server was wonderful.

  • 5/5 Jaqueline C. 2 years ago on Google
    Jinya was outstanding! After shopping through Perkins Rowe we definitely were hungry and decided to stop in. We were promptly seated and greeted by our waitress. Unfortunately, I don’t remember her name but she made the whole experience even more awesome. The food was all so fresh and flavorful. Inside the restaurant is beautiful and it resembles ramen bars in S Korea and Japan. Just writing this review is making me hungry!! Prices were very reasonable for the portions. Four appetizers, two bowls of ramen, two desserts and two drinks came to be just under $100. You can’t beat that for the quality of food and service we were given. Can’t wait to come back
