The vegan ramen is so good, especially they have the option of smaller size. The Chilean sea bass is very fresh.
Best dishes: Yellowtail sashimi w jalapeño citrus soy, the karaage is fantastic, Chashu Pork , Angeleno roll, and any of the Ramen ; best Ramen I've ever had! Call ahead to make a reservation !
They have this tofu thing that they make in front of you. It looks cooler than it tastes but it also tastes pretty good. The omakase is a great deal too - lots of food.
Very good value lunch specials . I loved the ramen and sushi special . They also have convenient power outlets at the sushi bar to top off your phone.
Melt in yo mouth. Chicken and oysters , tsukune, pork chashu , shrimp toast were all delish. Order the ramen half-size! Black ramen ftw
It's a little cramp during the lunch crowd. It's a small space and lots of patrons. Be sure to come early to get seats.
Great places for skewers and the ramen bowls are perfect for a rainy day.
Such an amazing place! Try their "Special" ramen (Only a few orders made daily), the salmon skewers , the shrimp toast and the Japanese pumpkin !
The spicy chicken ramen (karamen) is one of the best i ever had. Delicious menu, affordable !
Loved the Miso Ramen , Shrimp Toast , and Sushi !
Ramen here is fabulous! Also, try the unfiltered sake and the albacore truffle roll : you'll be blown away????
the robata! lotus root , enoki mushrooms , salmon belly . and the fresh tofu .
If you want a ridiculously amazing dinner , take the chef 's suggestions and order all the signature dishes - it will succeed in blowing your mind!! Best Ramen I've had to date!
Order the Homemade Organic Tofu (highly tasty) but don't serve it until you wait at least 5 mins 'til it solidifies! Better yet just ask your server or let him or her handle it.
Love the crispy shrimp balls , asparagus skewers , lollipop kale and hand rolls !
"When you're in the mood for miso-marinated beef tongue , or the delicate chicken meatballs called tsukune, or delicate grilled shiitakes , you're probably in the right restaurant ." - Jonathan Gold Read more
I had some Robata during happy hour . Yum!!! Like this place
I love love this restaurant . Omakase is the best deal, $35 one is enough for two people to share.
GREAT RAMEN and Robata as well . If you come in for lunch you can add a side dish to your Ramen . It's awesome. Read more

The ramen is excellent, and for dessert try the green tea mochi !
nice ramen ! you can also order omakase byakko! it's nice!
Great food and great service!! Q is the best! He made sure we had an excellent party!
Tempura Brussels sprouts and smaller portions of ramen . Count me in.
Came for lunch and left unimpressed. Sushi rice was heavy with starchy feel & taste. Tempura average. Kids meal OK, with highlight being the chicken meatballs . I would give this a miss
The assorted sashimi was the best thing I’ve ever eaten in my life.
JINYA Best 10 Dishes is #1 Shrimp Toast
