Reviews of JINYA Ramen Bar - Washington DC
One of the best ramen restaurants in the area. I went to this location and the one in VA and they didn’t disappoint. Very flavorful and good portions given. The quality of the food is good too. I keep my bowl simple with the ingredients it comes with. One downside was the spicy bowl we ordered wasn’t spicy but it was still edible. Customer service was good. Parking is terrible but that’s DC, unfortunately.
Great atmosphere, awesome food, presentation and service . The food has so much flavor you can’t just settle for one appetizer.
Make sure to save space for your ramen bowl the star of the show.
Shout out to Zahara our waitress she was very nice and helpful.
We are definitely coming.
The food was overall quite tasty, but a tiny bit too salty, especially the karage. I was disappointed by the fact that they didn't have any hot sake. The guy who served us was really nice, polite, friendly and courteous, but the bus boy was being really rude to us. At some point he started taking the plates away even if some of us were still eating. Not a professional behavior. I understand it's Friday, but you shouldn't work at a restaurant if you're gonna be in a rush to leave.
I loved my experience at JINYA! Everyone is so kind and welcoming. Our waitress Camila was knowledgeable and attentive! My favorite appetizer is the spicy creamy shrimp tempura. Perfect spot for some ramen all year round. Will definitely be back 😋 🍜
This place is amazing. The ambiance is unforgettable and the food is spectacular. The environment will have you coming back for more. Sergii is the greatest bartender I've come across, really friendly and awesome at his craft. Everything is delicious here. The drinks are exquisite here. The presence of greatness is among this place. My server Darwin did a great job and I can't wait to visit again!
I thoroughly enjoy eating at JINYA every time I go. The service is good and the food is even better! I tried the Impossible Gyoza and they were delicious. It came with a spicy dipping sauce which was amazing (if you like spicy). We also tried the brussel sprouts … never had better sprouts than these. It had some butter like sauce at the bottom that I just ended up dumping in my ramen lol!
In my opinion one of the best ramen places in DC. I love coming here the service has always been great and have never had any complaints with the food. The space is pretty small and may seem a little cramped when they are busy but it is well worth it. Even the drinks they have are good too!
Really cool ramen bar. It’s a multilevel, long building that lures you in as a customer. The atmosphere here is crisp - black on wood with intentional lighting. Plenty of seating, both at the bars and plenty of tables for larger parties. Overall, just cool.
The drink lists and food options are pretty solid. Highly recommend to start off with the Okinawan Punch (rum punch with a twist) and the creamy tempura shrimp. Both were excellent. As for the ramen bowls, staff will tell you there’s no best bowl. And after a couple visits, I agree. Each of the ones I tried were tasty and very generous in portion.
All the way around, a good spot.
I visited DC with my wife and this restaurant is cross the street of where we stayed. Service is good here and Camila who served us is very nice and friendly. The food is great. We love the Jinya Bun and the Tonkutsu. The Original 2010 is a bit salty but flavor is rich and great.
When I first walked in, my impressions of the restaurant were that it was well maintained and cleaned. The decor was aesthetically pleasing with a modern look juxtaposed with an industrial vibe from the brick and corroded iron veneer. The bathroom was sleek and clean was well. I walked out of the restroom back into the dimly lit ambiance ready to browse the menu and order.
After opening the menu from the QR code, I noticed that Jinya offers a huge selection of foods such as fusion appetizers and meals like chashu rice bowls. I went ahead and ordered a classic tonkotsu ramen with no toppings with a side of takoyaki.
I waited a while for the food to arrive--on the long side for a ramen restaurant, but was excited to see that the food looked exactly it was on the online menu. Jinya did a good job on the presentation. The ajitama (egg) and the chashu slices were perfect. Slightly chilled with a melt-in-your-mouth umami feel. After finishing these, I was left wishing for more flavors and textures as there were only noodles and broth left.
Though at a perfectly cooked al dente and flavorful, I wish I ordered bamboo shoots or otherwise to combat the monotonous onslaught of noodles. I could not justify ordering more toppings as its base price was already at a premium of $20. I couldn't help but to remember the fully loaded ramen bowls for roughly half the cost in the Little Tokyo district of LA. I polish off the bowl by slurping the broth. Bold, but not pungent.
In the end, I thought the portioning seemed rather small even with the takoyaki (best I have ever had in terms of flavor and presentation). Had I ordered toppings to accompany the ramen bowl, perhaps the portioning would have been adequate. All in all, well done in terms of quality, but the portioning was rather small and left me wanting more. I will definitely come back again.
The menu is pretty large. I had a ramen and Mochi ice. Both very good. Plus a nice local craft beer - perfect.
Great food together with friendly service - what else do you need.
I have been to this chain twice and i was equally pleased both times with their vegan ramen. It's relatively tough to find tasty vegan food in East Asian cusine but this place is great for someone who wants to try vegan ramen. I am not a big fan of edamame in general but their salted edamame were also nice. Good service,great portion and will visit again
Not the best but definitely above average quality of ramen dishes. Taste is rather authentic and the price is reasonable. A nice place for drinks too.
Love coming to this place for ramen . Found out the Tokyo delight is A really good cocktail. Daniel does. A great reed job at the bar, and I've had the pleasure of dining with him several times.
Food is absolutely AMAZING! It was so good!!! We ordered the California Poke Bowl, Shrimp Wonton Ramen, and the Pork Chashu Rice Bowl! They were all delicious 🤍 Plus they served the food right away!
One of the tastiest Ramen restaurants in DC.
They have two floors with large bar areas that take up a majority of the seating areas.
Carlos did a great job taking care of us on the second floor. He recommended some delicious Ramen bowls and a smooth Sake that helped us water it all down.
It cost around $83 dollars for the Tonkotsu Black, Tonkotsu Spicy, a bottle of Sake and the Brussels Sprouts Tempura.
I highly recommend visiting Jinya to satisfy your ramen fix in the DC area.
I've been to Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto and still Jinya remains one of the best ramen bowls I've ever had. Their Tonkotsu Black is just unbeatable. I love the expansive cocktail menu as well. This location is especially nice as its got two floors and plenty of seating. Even if its packed the bar seating has a high turnover rate so it's never hard to grab a spot!
delicious! food was so well prepared and service was prompt and helpful. Darwin served us and made sure to explain anything we had questions about. He also asked about dietary restrictions or allergies at the beginning which was really considerate. All in all: Very yummy, great experience!
Very good, flavorful, authentic and delicious in my opinion. I deducted a star because the restaurant allows for pets to enter and sit in the dinning area. That was unsanitary. I would recommend dining early as they do get a lot of foot traffic.
Absolutely one of the best ramen experiences you can have! Me and my group enjoyed the food and drink. If you're in the area, you will NOT regret the food. Pricing is fair for the quality and quantity of the food. I highly recommend it!
We had a very nice server Camila. She provided us with a wonderful service. Most importantly, dishes here were super delicious and their prices were reasonable. In particular, Spicy ramen was good, everyone should give it a try. This place is highly recommended.
This was my first time at a Ramen bar and I had a great experience. The service and ambiance were great. The food was also amazing. I must say, I didn't care for the spicy tuna mini tacos, but the Shrimp Wonton Ramen and JINYA Tonkotsu were delicious!
The food was delicious and the server was very helpful. I enjoyed the mini spicy tuna tacos and the quinoa salad. Even more amazing was their watermelon delight drink. Since this is a nonalcoholic drink I asked for a shot of vodka and my server, DeJuan, hooked me up!! Highly recommend.
This is by far the best ramen....I have eaten at this place in L.A. also and they are both consistent. For me it's all about the broth and theirs is very authentic. I get the spicy chicken ramen...add broccolini and jalapeño corn. The service here is great 👍 and the atmosphere is for family and friends...great bar too! Don't forget your vaccination card at this location or no Ramen for you!
One of the best Ramen places in DC. Sorry about the photos, I usually take better pics but I was in a rush because the food looked and smelled amazing! I truly wished my mouth was bigger! Their fried chicken appetizer was surprisingly good...who knew. My ramen was equally as better. Nice ambience. It was really chill. Definitely a spot worth visiting!
Healthy and tasty food with plenty of choice for all dietary preferences. California Poke Bowl was fresh and a healthier option at around 620 calories. Packed full of protein and healthy fats. The menu has the calories published so you can eat without guilt!
Ramen was delicious!My husband had the spicy pork and I had chicken(added tofu and the egg myself)I recommend the battered octopus and the Jinya sake sangria . Diego was a great server as well, very friendly. I would definitely go back.
Top notch ramen! Food is brought out extremely fast, is delicious and reasonably priced, and staff is kind and helpful. If you're looking for amazing ramen, this is the place to go!
For my first meal in D.C., Jinya Ramen Bar was the best start to my visit. Keith was an excellent bartender, knowledgeable, approachable and charismatic. His recommendations were spot on! Will definitely come back here on my next visit if not before I leave!
Not bad ramen and appetizers, my drink was delicious. Was impressed to see whisky on tap. Good service
I was here for dinner and food and drinks were really good, the places is modern and really nice, I order appetizers, entrees and drinks. I loved the red sangria, highly recommend.
The Karaage chicken ramen was the best for me, our server Darwin was really nice, I would be back definitely
Delicious ramen place! Highly recommend ordering the JINYA Tonkotsu Black. It was the perfect amount of spicy. Our bar tenders Danny and Carlos were great! I'll definitely be back.
I can’t stop thinking about this place! The pork is amazing!! We had the pork tacos, pork bun, and ramen. All delicious! Also, the vibes are immaculate!
Here on a girls night out for the cocktails and Carlos + Keith took care of us! The food recommendations were phenomenal! Takoyaki paired it with the spicy tonkotsu (HOT) with the boiled egg and fried onions. To die for!!!
This place calls my name every time I'm in DC. I come specifically here to get my ramen fix and it never disappoints. Food is fresh, service is fantastic and always a great time! Keith took very good care of us!
My friend decided to do a quick dinner here for his birthday; I’ve heard so many raving things about it so I was extremely excited to try their ramen. Unfortunately the ramen was not as good as I expected (I had the chicken spicy ramen), and some people who had come before said this was not the experience they had. I guess it really depends on the chef and the day but the ramen did not stand out and was not that tasty. The drinks were good, I had the sangria.
This place had the best Ramen I’ve ever had hands down. We ordered chicken ramen and shrimp ramen and both were very tasty and the serving size was very proportionate too. Loved the fact that the Ramen wasn’t just soup and noodles but a good amount of other things too. Really liked the warm sake as well :)
Definitely recommend 100%!
Delicious appetizers. The Takoyaki on the bed of tomago spread was delectable. Tried the Choya Sparkling Sake which came in a wonderful bottle and enough for 2 glasses.
Great atmosphere too as was out server Darwin!
I absolutely LOVE Jinya! I have lost count of how many times I have eaten here. I usually get some version of tonkatsu, but have also tried the vegan bowl of ramen. The pork buns are incredible, as are all the soups. They have a pretty good selection of draft beers and even include the calorie count of each brew on the menu! I can not recommend Jinya Ramen Bar enough. If you live in the district or are visiting the area, I highly suggest you check it out if your into ramen. If you have not tried ramen in the past, Jinya would be a great first time experience. I must warn you however, you may not find a better ramen spot, definitely not in the district. Sorry I didn’t include pics with this post. I will update it next time I go back, which will be very soon. Do yourself and your mouth a favor and check out Jinya Ramen Bar, you will LOVE it!
My favorite ramen shop in DC! Always enjoy my meals here. Was served by Joseph this visit, who was friendly and efficient in serving. The vegan and vegetarian options here are plentiful, including Impossible meat. The Spicy Creamy Vegan ramen is a hit among both the plant-based and non-plant-based alike!
had a great experience at Jinya DC this afternoon. As soon as I walked in I was well greeted by the hostess and got seated right away. My server Alondra was very attentive and recommended me the tonkotsu black with the spicy creamy shrimp tempura. best combination, really recommend. Will definitely be coming back soon!
I love coming here! The ramen and appetizers are so good. My server Camila was so nice and attentive. 10/10 service
Overall good. The ramen was decent. The broth was great, the egg was perfect in the middle, great the topping options and ramen variety. The meats could’ve been better for the price, there are definitely some better ramens for less, so mostly average. The gyoza were good. The highlight for me was the “jinya bun” taco, I loved that.
This place is well worth the wait you might have! Went with a group of 6 around 8pm, and was an hour wait. The place is very spacious, being multi level, and the staff are nice and very fast! The waiter checked on our table plenty of times which was helpful for our mates who got spicy stuff.
The ramen was EXCELLENT. The tonkotsu broth was very rich, and flavored everything in the bowl very well. The noodles were very good too, soaking in plenty of flavor. The umami miso had enough kick to it to be perfectly spicy broth as well. The only ding I can give it is that I wish it was hotter (temp wise) as I prefer to need to cool my food rather than eat it lukewarm right out of the bat.
Overall very good place, it's no wonder they have lots of locations!
Great ramen and curry rice! Their crispy chicken is a must try, happy hour between 4 to 7 pm.
Very tasty soup. Zahara provided attentive service. Management on the floor making sure guests are having a good time. Busy bar with sport games translating. Best ramen spot in DC. Thank you
Fantastic ramen, cool vibe, highly recommend. Daniel was a super friendly server and gave helpful advice on what to order. The service was fantastic and the ramen slapped. Run, don’t walk.
Love love this place.
First time here and Daniel made our experience simply amazing. Definitely coming back here again.
If you like your drinks sweet, I suggest the Tokyo Delight. ☺️☺️☺️
First time coming here. Experience was great. The bartender Keith was very welcoming and accommodating. Service was excellent and the ramen was even better. Definitely would recommend this place to everyone.
From the food to the staff, the atmosphere at Jinya is fantastic. For me, Jinya had some of the best Ramen in town! Additionally, the Fried Chicken is amazing. We just celebrated my Sons birthday here recently and had such a great time. The staff really made us feel special as they always do when we visit!
We were lucky enough to find this great restaurant so close to our hotel while Vacationing in DC. Our Servers (Daniel and Juan) provided amazing recommendations and service. The only downside was that we don’t have a restaurant like this at home.
I enjoyed the ramen! I try a lot of tonkatsu ramen, and I definitely liked this one! I particularily ejoyed the addition of the garlic chips and the noodles. The chashu wasn't my favorite, I think it could have been done better. Service was quick and the manager was attentive. They have a few different bowl options, next time I'd like to try to kaarage bowl.
Amazing place!! The best attention. Camila she explained to us about the cooking of the ramen! The truth is an incredible place, the drinks and desserts are also the best!
recommended to end a cold day in the city of DC
Oh man the tan tan ramen blew me away. Perfect level of spice and umami umami umami. Love the selection of beer they have here too! And great vibes and ambiance. Thanks to Carlos and Daisy for the awesome service.
I’ve eaten at two Ramen places in my whole life. This has been my second visit. My first visit was better but this place was definitely exceptional! The broth was very good and savory and porky (i ordered the tonkotsu black) and the seasoned the egg was great. Noodles were nice and thick but be sure to ask for extra thick if you are a fan of thick noodles. Service was really good as well, my only issue was that my pork was cold in my soup so I had to send it back. They warmed it up very quickly and the meal was delicious.
Overall 8/10 restaurant.
Jinya ramen should satisfy your craving. The "Jinya Tonkotsu Black" broth had good strong flavor which is always a good sign on that first bite. While being a thin style, the ramen density was good and balanced well, however the pork slices were a bit too much on the fatty side which made it distracting.
The "Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna" small plate was an excellent dish to get that is recommend to anyone. The "Brussel Sprouts Tempura" I'd pass on as it lacked flavor. I'm surprised it didn't come with a side sauce as it totally screamed for some to help give it life. Side gyoza and seaweed salad are always dishes that you can't go wrong with.
Excellent service great food!! ✨✨ Daniel was soo sweet and made sure we had an amazing evening! Must recommend.
Excellent first visit here! The food came out super fast & was delicious. We got these Salmon & Tuna cones as an appetizer and they were amazing!
Carlos served me at the bar. He did a terrific job. In fact, it was a masterclass. This guy has full command and treats his guests like royalty. I’ll definitely be back.
Solid ramen but on the pricier side. Broth flavors were good and overall what you’d expect from a ramen house. However, value wise, there are better options for sure.
Carlos and Sean did an amazing job while we visited Jinya this evening.
This establishment has super friendly staff! Can’t wait to come back for Happy Hour.
Service and food was fantastic, super fast and efficient. The appetizers and the Ramen was spot on. Def will visit again!
The food is excellent, and there are many great vegan/vegetarian options. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. If you have a sweet tooth, the panna cotta and green tea mochi ice cream are both excellent choices for dessert!
Wow, such wonderful service! I have always heard great reviews about this place from my DC friends and was advised to try out JINYA when in town. Automatically when I stepped inside, the atmosphere was homey and upbeat. My hostess, Cassandra, was a joy to have when taking me on this JINYA journey. She made me feel welcomed and set me in an area that was great for me and my party, despite not having a reservation. Plus the amazing food was a cherry on top with the lovely service! Highly recommend to grab a great lunch with friends!
We had a few happy hour drinks (highball, sake, etc) and started with the crispy chicken, which was very yummy. For ramen, we had the spicy umami miso ramen - I was surprised at how mild it was, even after ordering it with extra heat. We ended up asking for anything to add heat to it, and were given what I think was a sriracha paste. This made the ramen much more flavorful and almost gave it the heat we were looking for initially. Good spot overall 🍜 😋
This place is great. Everything was flavorful. Natalie delivered great service. Who ever created the kids menu needs an award.
We had the Tonkatsu Ramen. The Tonkatsu Ramen and broth were flavourful and slightly spicy. The customer service was okay. Could of have been better. We waited for a while for our server to finally bring drinks and take our order. Once she did, our food came right away. She didn't check on us but that to me is okay because I honestly don't mind while I am eating. Will definitely come back for the food. The establishment was clean and friendly. They do ask when you enter to wear a mask.
What an awesome place. Food was great. We never eat everything, but today it was to good to leave untouched! Service was amazing as well. Natalie our waitress made sure we were taken care of the while time we were there. Kudos to her and her team! Thank you so much!
excellent proposal, delicious food. I would not change anything. Even the music was great.
Chris and Diego were amazing as always! They provided the best hospitality. I observed the bar before I sat down and everyone was enjoying their time. I was looking forward to sitting at the bar and they made it worth it! Food was great and prompt! I came to this place most days after my nail appointment and I’m always satisfied
Keith was the best tonight. Made the experience amazing. Excellent personality and drinks are great. 5 star period!!!
We ordered out and there was hair cooked into our food unfortunately. This stuff happens, but also, we got chicken ramen and it had less than half a chicken in it. It’s just too expensive for that quality of food.
Food is out standing, servers from Andres made the visit even better. Will definitely be coming back.
Wonderful staff, amazing service and food. Highly recommended! Darwin, who was our server and Sergi Andy both are amazing, making sure you had a great experience! Will be back for sure.
Zahara, our waitress, was so helpful and kind and welcoming. It was my first time at Jinya, and the food was just as AWSOME as the service. I had the tonkotsu spicy ramen, ordered it medium. I would come back again!
Exceptional ramen, extremely fast service, phenomenal team! Carlos hosted me at the bar and gave me a warm welcome and made a fantastic Bloody Mary that was perfectly spicy. The Ramen bowl was a vegan, veggie bowl that was delicious and not too salty. Great mix of vegan and meat options for all diets. 100% recommend and look forward to returning!
I delighted in a wonderful bowl of spicy umami miso ramen (pictured) Jose and Diego provided awesome service and recommended a delicious saki. I will certainly return!
Tasty vegan ramen options and happy hour was a plus! We were impressed by the seasoning of the impossible meat on all the dishes. It wasn't just cooked out of the packet and thrown on the dish but instead seasoned to fit the dish well. The service was not super great, but overall we enjoyed the restaurant.
Very cool layout. Our waiter was attentive and nice. Clean,stocked, well upkept bathroom. The food didn't take long to come out and was delicious. We ordered 2 different ramen soups, a rice bowl, and spicy tuna tacos. The tacos were a great way to start and I will add, we were surprised by the amount of flavor and freshness packed in. I tried a cilantro ramen and it did not disappoint. I LOVE cilantro. There was plenty. I am glad I added on the nori too. Next time we are visiting the DC area, we will certainly be back! I hope they open one in the Virginia Beach area.
The food was amazing! The food came in less than 5 minutes and we finished it fast just because it was so good! Our server Camilla was very friendly and easy to approach with. 10/10 would recommend. Can't wait to come back!
Highly recommend to come here for great quality ramen and exceptional service. Great vibes as soon as you walk in. Daniel was the bartender on the second level and took great care of us!!!!
Food was amazing, Cassandra the hostess provided great hospitality. Darwin, our serve, greeted us with much enthusiasm and provided a very kind and consistent service to us. Truly lovely restaurant Jinya DC is
One of the best drinks I’ve ever had! Bartender Carlos took great care of our group. The vibes of the place are really cool.
Tried the Tonkotsu Black & Tonkotsu Original. Both are very good. The broth is very rich. The pork is very tender and has a roasted taste.
This venue was very accommodating for our large group! They were attentive and the food came out in a timely manner. The drinks were reasonably priced which is saying a lot for DC. Alondra and Natalie were great servers! Definitely recommend for large groups!
I want to first say thank you to the staff for really making our 11th anniversary something special. They gave us free sake and mochi. They also included a lovely merch item since they were rebranding. We not only had a grand time free of being rushed but was able to eat in a well rounded, tasting and inviting environment. I understand that’s last year has been rough on everyone and to be able to go out and be greeted with such warmth made us feel welcome. We weren’t sure how to celebrate our anniversary this year but this decision was definitely worth it. If you visit make sure to order the tacos, takoyaki and the curry. The ramen was also amazing. Make sure to get it hot. The Tokyo Highball was AMAZING. Thanks again guys. Will come again.
I had their original Tonkotsu ramen which came with thick noodle. I had additional noodle (Kaedama) as well. Very flavorful and tasty. Service was good too, while it took so long for Kaedama to arrive so by the time it came the soup was cold.
Excellent food. Daniel and Juan were amazing. Great food and even better service. Will return.
Natalie was my server, and she was super nice and helpful with the menu! 10/10 experience, will DEF be coming back! Ordered the Tonkotsu Black ramen and would HIGHLY recommend!
I split the ramen with my friend and still felt satisfied at the end of my meal. The customer service was exceptional. Everyone that I talked to there was so helpful and kind. Our server, Sam was great and served our order in a timely manner. Great restaurant, great food!!!!
Our server Natalie was fantastic!
The service was overall wonderful and the weekend brunch deal with bottomless mimosas is an absolute must!
The atmosphere was intimate and cozy. Would highly recommend for anyone who loves good authentic ramen. Cant wait to come back!
This location offers a great ambience in the vibrant DC neighborhood. The staff here is fantastic. Special shout out to Keith, their bartender. He is very welcoming and always recommends the best cocktails. Out of all of their locations in the DMV area, this is my go to! It is definitely worth a visit.
Just love this place! Our first time here and my husband and I LOVED the food. The broth is complex and filling, the portion size generous! They even offered us more noodles to top off if we wanted it! We will leave here full, and well satisfied! Bonus: the staff are awesome and the vibe is great!
Best brunch ever!!!!! The staff is amazing! Keith will definitely take care of you downstairs but if his bar is full, you gotta go upstairs to see Carlos! Either guy you won’t be disappointed. Best Ramen spot in DC hands down!🤗 …
Keith immediately greeted me with a warm smile and direct eye contact when taking my order. He has a friendly demeanor and positive attitude. I appreciated his attention to detail with my order. 10/10 will come back again!
Some of the best ramen I have ever had and lots of drink options. Super cool vibe, great place for a date or just hanging out with friends. Darwin was the best server and recommended a great dish for my girlfriend and she absolutely loved it. Definitely coming back (probably tomorrow).
Jinya Ramen was excellent overall. I had their Vegan Harvest bowl and it was some of the best vegan Ramen I have ever had. This one has impossible meat in it with added to the depth but the broth itself was rich and certainly good enough on its own. They also have lots of other options without alt-meats. The hostess and servers were all extremely nice, and the server was knowledgeable and communicative about any potential cross contamination of other dishes.
They also had a stellar selection of sake, which can be seen on their websites menu.
All in all, I will definitely come back to Jinya any time I'm in a city with one.
Lovely atmosphere & delicious food. Happy hour was great. Keith was very attentive!
I have been to this place more than 5 times, never disappoints me. Vegan ramen and spicy chicken ramen are so appetizing.
Went here for brunch and the food was great. We ordered a cocktail and it was strong also looked beautiful. Got an extra egg in the ramen and it did not disappoint. The egg was perfect, marinated and jelly on the inside. Carlos was great to us!
Delicious ramen and great, friendly service, just a little expensive.
The ramen here is remarkable. I’ve tried several, but my true love is Tonkotsu Spicy. My server keith was phenomenal.
Bartender is fantastic , very friendly , knew the menu with any questions we asked. Really enjoyed this place.Keith and Carla bueno
Wonderful tasting ramen and quick service. Got the chicken and shrimp wonton and would highly recommend.
Love their ramen very much and like the fact they customise it to your liking.
Amazing service! We really enjoyed our delish ramen after a long walk through our nation’s Capital. The restaurant has a fun vibe with great music; a nice change from the tourist scene. Our waiter, Natalie was more than accommodating & made our meal one to remember.
This restaurant has some of the best ramen we’ve ever eaten. They offer a variety of options, and the portions are very generous. Eric, our server was very enthusiastic and had a strong knowledge of the menu. Our experience was very enjoyable.
JINYA is hands-down my favorite restaurant in the city! The staff is incredibly friendly and always remembers my favorite orders, welcomes me in with a smile, and makes suggestions to ensure I have the best experience possible. Servers routinely go above and beyond - it's a "regulars" friendly environment but also for new diners they are very knowledgeable and & ask about your tastes to ensure their recommendations are right for each person. Management is also attentive and welcoming. Try the Tonkotsu Spicy ramen with some hot sake and you won't be sorry :)
Joseph helped us out today, it wasn’t my first time but it was for my date and he made her feel very welcome and excited for dinner. She wasn’t intending on trying pork but he was able to convince her to try the Tonkatsu Spicy as part of the special items on the menu. Excellent service from an amazing guy!
Party of 3 and we had a wonderful server on 5/29 at approximately 2:20 pm. The ramen was flavorful and the extra toppings we ordered were fresh and delicious. We had one minor mishap with my spicy chicken ramen but the manager was very apologetic and made up for it which shows this restaurant’s excellent customer service. Everyone was friendly and attentive which, paired with delicious food, wants us to come back again. We would recommend JINYA to everyone and especially this location in particular!
Was craving for a spicy chicken ramen which I really recommend, Amazing experience! was attended by a wonderful hostess Lesly very friendly and seated me right away. Those Brussels tempura she recommended me will for sure bring me back to this place!
Absolutely fantastic. Great atmosphere, service was friendly, professional and timely, and the food. My God, the food. I got the tonkatsu black and it is the best ramen I've had in a long time. Highly recommend the bamboo shoots, they were unlike any I've had before, big and fat and marinated with the perfect texture and taste to accompany the ramen. Great happy hour drink deals. Would definitely come back and I hope you go too!!
Decided to have a dinner on my own Saturday night, as soon as walked in I found seating upstairs bar next to the whiskey room. Daniel immediately if I needed any help and soon Carlos introduced himself and offered assistance as well. Everyone was so kind and quick with service. Upon ordering I received my food almost immediately and I noticed the people next to me did as well. Daisy was great also she walked around the bar to make sure everyone was taken care of. This was a very good experience here at Jinya and I will definitely be returning for some more ramen. Thank you Carlos, Daisy and Daniel!
The best ramen place in Washington DC I really recommend it. Good atmosphere and my server Natalie gave me good service. I will definitely come back.
Always a great stop for quality ramen and atmosphere.
Daniel and Sahara at the upper bar were particularly helpful and friendly.
I love Jinya and have been to multiple locations across the country. This was my first time at the DC location. The team was very kind. The hostess was very welcoming and kind. I sat at the bar and Keith the bartender was very friendly, attentive, and kind. And lastly, the food was delicious as usual. I always order the Tonkotsu spicy and this was the most delicious I’ve had at the DC location though all the other locations are great. The upstairs bar and seating is really nice as well! I’d definitely recommend in the DC area.
I have come here 3 times now and it is always amazing here. The food (Spicy creamy ramen) is always delicious. I came this time with my little sister on her birthday and they sat us right away and were quick about service and attentive. My server this time was Alondra- she's great! She was warm, welcoming and attentive with us.
Was craving for Japanese Food in the DC area and found this great place!
Jinya serves authentic Japanese food with a few original items on the menu. It was happy happy hour when I visited and I ordered their chicken karaage, salmon poke and pork buns. All three appetizers were well-seasoned and delicious. For the main course I ordered their Tsukemen or dipping ramen. The dipping broth was curry-based that packed flavor! I also tried their Tonkotsu black ramen and the broth was heavenly!!!
Don’t miss out on this great ramen place when you are in DC!
First experience inside was spectacular. Being welcomed by the hostess Lesly made me feel very welcomed. The food was amazing! Nothing like I had previously, definitely a new experience. Will come back soon for more!
Came here for Valentine’s Day and it was perfect. Darwin was our amazing server. Darwin recommended some fantastic valentines day drinks and provided great service. Highly recommend! The ramen - always a hit. And those tempura shrimp, you can never go wrong!
AMAZING! If you go to Jinya, cross your fingers and ask for Daniel (he's the bomb, super funny and has great suggestions). Everything he suggested was so yum!
Had a great time at JINYA Ramen Bar. The entire staff was great especially Camila who waited on our party. The food was delicious and came out fast. The atmosphere was vibrant and the people around us seemed to be having a great experience as well. We will be back soon at Jinya Ramen Bar!
I don't normally write review so I am going to give this a try, I am going to also be honest and polite--Location for a large group dinner was not ideal with parking unless you pay and walk a block--Food was really good but what really made this experience enjoyable to even write a review was the server--I work in customer service and I almost asked her to come interview at my job. Nat is her name, and she was patience with our large group and made us laugh and really went over the top with her actions--perfect example of someone who really love customers. If I go, I will most definitely be asking for her to be our server. Everyone in our group literally left tip individually for the simple fact that she pays everyone attention and didn't make anyone feel left out or unheard. Bravo Jinya expectation is high after our visit. Thank you, Nat, for your kind and quick service.
Lovely place! Ramen was amazing. Please ask for Darwin! Very knowledgeable server!
My coworkers and I stumbled upon this restaurant. Sahara was a lovely waitress. I really enjoyed my Tonkotsu ramen and it came out quickly. It was tasteful and very creamy. The pork was cooked well and tasted so soft and well seasoned. I also enjoyed my green tea.
We ordered flying vegan ramen! It was great! Portion size was good for two of us! I am not fond of ramen but even I liked it ! Daniele for was patient and helpful! Nice place and would strongly recommend people to visit!
JINYA Ramen Bar is a quaint but modern neighborhood noodle bar. It feels like a little place you would come across while wandering inner-city Tokyo. Noodles were delicious and served quickly. Staff, especially Diego, were friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend giving JINYA a visit.
Came in and sat at the bar and was immediately welcomed. Good and fast service. This location also has a lm upstairs. Got my usual the spicy creamy vegan and it hit the spot just as expected. Keith and Carlos, behind the bar, were 2 of the best.
Best experience ever, as always! Keith is incredible, always so kind. Check out the shrimp dumpling ramen, and I highly suggest a bit of homemade hot sauce on the side with it. Proud to have this in my neighborhood!
I love going to this place. I always sit at the bottom floor bar with Keith. He always does an incredible job taking care of me and my orders. He makes the best lychee martini too, I highly recommend. On especially crowded days I never feel like the wait is too bad and I am always attended to.
The atmosphere and energy in the place was decent, it took awhile for our server to show up but all was well until we noticed the stench of sewage emitting from the bathroom area on the second level. A couple of the staff members agreed that it wasn't just wasn't" and I even asked a fellow patron. My main gripe is that there there was mostly indifference from the managerial staff and that I eventually displaced myself to the bar since the smell was overwhelming while I was eating the food (which was otherwise pretty good).
Keith the bartender is absolutely amazing. It was busy so he was my bartender, server, therapist (men are trash). He even introduced me to a pick me up - tequila in the Shirley temple 😱 He made the bar fun and my food arrived within a reasonable time
My server Anthony is the perfect example of what customer service is supposed to be like, he attended my group of people with care and respect. Not to mention our food arrived with speed. I did not have to ask him for one thing. Me and my group enjoyed our stay and will most definitely be coming back
The food and atmosphere are amazing. You would never expect it to be that big from the outside. 2 floors and 2 bars, bartender Daniel did a great job taking care of us while we were checking out the World Cup. Will definitely be back.
Top tier customer service from Keith!. grabbed a drink while waiting for my food. Courteous.
Drink was a hit !
The Ramen was delicious! Each bite was filled with flavor, and the broth was perfect!
My barman, Keith, was on point. Kept me well watered as I waited for my table. Five stars without a doubt.
The wait staff at the table and the food left a bit to be desired. Both were much too hurried to be satisfactory. A generous 3 stars.
Good vibes, great drinks, better food! Keith at the bar was the best! Coming back for another happy hour!
The food and the sake was amazing! Natalie R was the best server ever!
Highly recommend the octopus app and the noodles.
Everything was perfectly spiced and I definitely wanted a doggie bag.
Keith & Camilla were amazing! The drinks were on point and I could feel Camilla’s smile through her mask. The food came out quickly and was delicious.
If you want a fantastic bartender who knows how to make a mean drink and make you feel like you're at home, Keith is your guy! He's always got a smile on his face and is happy to chat with you about anything. Whether you want a classic cocktail or something off-menu, Keith's got you covered. Plus, he's just a cool dude who's easy to talk to and always remembers your name. I highly recommend checking him out next time you're at the bar!
First time here and I must say it was beyond amazingly delicious!!!!!!! The food was better than expected and the service was superb and exceeded our expectations. Our server Natalie was very attentive, nice,helpful and just overall amazing!! A must try. Oh and great music and ambiance.
The best ramen l ever had l love the spicy chicken ramen Darwin was very helpful. Regresaría a Jinja. Sin pensarlo dos veces
Had a delicious bowl of spicy vegan creamy ramen. My husband enjoyed his ramen as well. Perfect meal on a super cold day. Carlos, the bartender and our waiter, provided excellent service.
Great happy hour and ramen. The garlic Tam Tam has a perfect balance of spice
The service from Alondra was phenomenal. She was very responsive and attentive to our needs. Came here on a Friday after work. The food was also amazing. Ask for extra spicy sauce.
Ordered the spicy chicken ramen (hot) and takoyaki. Super full and satisfied :)
My server Natalie was really kind and attentive. She asked about my group’s allergies and made sure to accommodate us by bringing small batches for tasting. Great establishment.
Had a great time at JINYA! Went around 830pm on a Saturday and my boyfriend & I were seated right away. It was his time at a Ramen restaurant and he got the spicy tankotsu - - really enjoyed it! We tried takoyaki which was crispy and delicious. Also ordered a pork bao bun which was great. The server gave a great recommendation for Sake for us to share. They have a good variety of sake and other Japanese alcoholic beverages to try. Would 100% return! P. S. The server asked about food allergies right away, which is always great to consider.
The food was amazing. I never thought to have egg salad with Takoyaki but it was bomb. Also Darwin was amazing! A great server, they should give him a raise.
I love this place. Ramen is the best in DC. Happy hour is every day!!!!! One of the bartenders is really cool, his name is Carlos. Everyone there is pretty cool but Carlos and the other bartender, I think his name is Keith, they are awesome. Great brunch too.
Darwin and the flying vegan harvest ramen were perfection and the lychee martini is a must try :)
I had an amazing experience in Jinya. It was my first time coming to the restaurant and had amazing costumer service specially from the host Lesly. She greeted and sat me and my family right away. Food was amazing I recommend the spicy chicken ramen appetizer and Brussels tempura
One of my favorite spots in DC! Get Darwin as your server - the absolute best and sweetest. The food is amazing and so are the cocktails. You can’t go wrong with anything you order.
Very good, just wish there were more toppings on the ramen
as soon as i walked in i was politely greeted by the hostess lesly, she was kind and sweet due to the place being full. she walked me to my seat and i ordered chicken, it was so good. great experience from the start to end.
Everything was so delicious! I love that you can customize your ramen! This will certainly be another date night! Also make sure you order an Okinawa Punch and the It takes two to mango! Thanks Darwin for taking care of us!
I was really looking forward to trying Jinya. Even tho I’ve lived in the district for 10 years I hadn’t been because they didn’t have gluten free noodles.
They do now but if you’re celiac you can’t eat them because they’re cooked in the same thing as the glutinous noodles so… kind of defeats the point.
The ramen was just OK. We waited about 30 min on a Tuesday night, which we were totally fine with. But when we got our ramen, the broth was lukewarm, some of the toppings were really cold, and then the noodles were really hot. It made for a weird dining experience.
Our server was amazing though. Very kind and attentive. Water glasses were never empty.
I sat at the bar and had an amazing time. Keith took care of me and was extremely friendly and made my drinks with love. The spicy shrimp tempura is my personal fav off of the menu.
Randomly came across Jinya and was not disappointed. The hostess sat us immediately. Natalie our waitress was helpful and friendly! The food came out promptly and was amazing. Everything about this place was 5/5. I’ll be coming back soon.
The food here is great. Best Ramen in town. & Man, Keith the bartender is your go to guy if you want quality service and good energy. No other service better 👍
Love love love this place! We were seating quickly and everyone was super nice. The hostess Lesly was super professional and quick. I’m not a big fan of ramen but this place changed my mind for sure. The ramen was great. Definitely coming back.
Had an awesome date here with the gf. Zahara was awesome! Food was fantastic! Highly recommended!
Daniel was great. Made suggestions as it was my first time. We enjoyed our food and service.
Amazing experience at the downstairs bar courtesy of Sergio & Diego. This was my 3rd time here and it was so packed we stayed downstairs but Sergio made me &, my date feel warm & welcome. The food was quick and even ordered dessert...Great guys
Hello everyone, kermsy here to report that the one who served me best and made me feel at home and welcome at Jinya is the youthful, powerful man. I was glad to have eaten here because of Joseph, who provided excellent services and made sure we were comfortable. He also made sure my wife and I were seated comfortably and that we had everything taken care of.
We’ve been coming here for two years. Best ramen in dc. Love the spicy creamy vegan. Daniel Zahara was lovely, made sure we had our food fast andchecked up on us. Highly recommend
Spicy vegan ramen was SO GOOD! Really friend service and was impressed how one of their GM’s, Chris, came over to make sure we were taken care of. Looking forward to coming back.
I got an alcoholic beverage, ramen and the octopus balls and everything was delicious. I recommend the octopus for first time goers it was a really good appetizer! Our waitress Natalie was amazing and she was so kind.
Came here with my sister for the first time and had the spicy creamy vegan noodles and they were sooo good. Our server was Alondra and she was great, she really made us feel welcome. I'll definitely be back again
Must have! The food is delicious - I highly recommend the spicy chicken ramen and a side of pork gyoza.
Jinya also has great options for veggie/ vegan lovers — the flying vegan harvest ramen is a must try.
Exceptional service. The staff is friendly, and attentive! And, Carlos, the bartender is an absolute gem!
Nicole was so kind, thoughtful, and took great care of us. Thank you Nicole at Jinya on 14th St!!
Daniel was well versed of the menu and recommended what would work best for our preferences. He was timely and attentive, food and atmosphere were on point. Bathrooms clean, and much appreciated!
Daniel and Carlos made our experience worthwhile. We attempted 3 different ramen spots but was unsuccessful. So Ultimately I went back to Jinya a familiar but new location for this franchise. From Daniel guiding us through the menu and creating the best ramen for shrimp allergies and making the best recommendations considering those concerns, to Carlos recommending a cocktail that tastes as beautiful as Japan. We had an amazing meal and drinks🍸. Thank you .
I had a great experience at Jinya. The hostess Lesly was super friendly and seated me right away. The Tokyo Tonkotsu Ramen that I ordered was delicious. Looking forward to eating here again.
I highly recommend this place! I dined in and I had an amazing experience. The hostess Lesly was so polite, and she seated me right away. I had the Brussels tempura, and it was so delicious.
First time eating ramen and safe to say that I was not disappointed. The atmosphere at this Jinya is nice and friendly. My bartender Zahara was attentive and made us feel welcomed throughout my stay. I would recommend the Spicy chicken ramen with the crispy rice spicy tuna! It was delicious!!
Best spicy pork noodles I’ve had in DC! Loved the thick noodles, and the pork was cooked to perfection. Highly recommend! Additionally, Keith was absolutely helpful and has the best recs.
This was a ramen 🍜 spot that I just visited off 14th street. I had the sake (hot). The vegan creamy ramen, tempura brussel sprouts and vegan bun. Good tasting food and good service.
The portion sizes are nice and fulfilling. It doesn't stuff you to the point of discomfort. Also parking. If you know DC make sure you read the signs and park in the right spot. DC police always ready to hand out tickets.
The ambiance of the place is great and the food makes it better. Best for if out with friends or date. Reasonably priced food is try more than one appetizer at once. Work your way around the menu.
Sean and Keith were amazing. Very attentive and patient. Made our experience spectacular. The food is always hot fresh and on point. I will be coming back!
Place was great. We dined upstairs and Joseph was very attentive and friendly. We were first time visitors and he walked us through the menu options. Great place! We loved it and so did the kids!
Just had a great happy hour dinner! My server Keith was attentive and kept our waters filled. The karaage chicken on the happy hour menu is a great deal and very delicious.
delicious! i got the tonkotsu spicy ramen and really enjoyed it! thank you to our server, alexa!
A go-to spot nearby. Always friendly service (Nicole is the best)! Great vegan and non-vegan options. Cognizant of allergies. So many ramen options to choose from. Definitely recommend!
Darwin was an excellent server! We were in the mood for some sake and didn’t know which one we wanted so Darwin recommended a spectacular choice! Very nice and friendly service and exceptional food
tasty food and drinks!! Our server Camille was super sweet and efficient
Absolutely my favorite Ramen Bar - the vegan harvest is the best veggie ramen you will ever find! Vibes are just as amazing as the JINYA in Austin and LA! Our waitress Kanza was so kind and provided excellent service, it was incredible to find such friendly energy in DC
Food and drinks were great. What really made our experience excellent was our server, Joseph. He was always around when we needed him and responded to our requests as soon as he possibly could.
I haven’t been here in over 3+ years. Nicole welcomed us back and made my friend’s birthday dinner memorable! Her service was immaculate and the food was delicious!
I was greeted by the best host brenda and i was accommodated very well sat at a very comfortable table served by a server named camila. food is absolutely AMAZING! It was so good!!! We ordered the California Poke Bowl, spicy vegan ramen, and the pork gyoza! They were all delicious and they served the food right away! i love jinya 🙂
The service was very caring and friendly, heck I even got a free dessert for the small favour of making a review. Despite the gift I won’t sugarcoat my experience.
The food, specifically Ramen, was fine.
Nothing out of the ordinary, I was even a little disappointed by the lack of flavours. I ordered an additional egg and extra pak choi. To my disappointment the egg was still cold in the middle and the pak choi that came on a separate plate looked rather lacklustre and a bit stale. At least the food came quick, a little suspiciously quick which may have led to that cold egg…
All of this led to an okay experience, will I come here again? Probably not but see for yourself!
If you get to pick a server go for Natalie
I ate here and had a wonderful experience. The hostess Lesly, she was so kind and sat us immediately. The Ramen was enjoyable. Will definitely be coming back.
I drive all the way from VA to come to this JINYA location. Food is the best & 10/10 on the customer service. Natalie was my server and she was so sweet & kind. I love this place 😊
Really fun place to grab some ramen in DC. Fantastic vibe and delicious noodles - chicken wanton was superb. Great spot for a date. Thanks to Darwin for the amazing service she was SO helpful.
Been coming here for years,my husband and love this place for drinks and hanging out. We love sitting at the bar area for drinks esp my lychee martini. Will continue coming back esp for our favorite guys Chris!
Melvin is the GOAT. If he hadn’t delivered my food to me, I would not have eaten a meal tonight. And if I didn’t eat for another 30 days after that, I probably would have died. Simply put, Melvin saved my life.
Thank you, Melvin. You’re the best. I will be a returning customer for years to come.
I love it here it was a great atmosphere and the staff are really nice and friendly. Leslie was very kind and helpful with my dining experience. Definitely going again soon!
We had a super wonderful meal eating at the bar! The vegan ramen is to die for - so creamy and full of umami. Amazing service too, truly a top notch experience! Special shout out to Sergii, Zahara, and Daniel who made our experience a 10/10!
I am here for the third time in one week. This place is always amazing whether I’m enjoying the ambiance and happy hour or eating delivery from home the ramen always AMAZING!! My go to’s are the crispy chicken and shrimp on the small plate menu and I always get the spicy chicken ramen. If you’re dinning in- Camilla provides attentive, helpful and kind customer service! Very informative about the menu options.
If you’re looking for the best ramen on Earth, look no more. The FLAVORS..... out of this world. The Spicy Chicken Ramen is sooo good, I get the seasoned egg added hut if you go crazy on the toppings you will run up a CHECK. Like the broccoli is like $2.25 and they only give you like 2 stems so its really not worth it to make your ramen cost double by adding a lot of toppings because you don’t get much. But, best believe it will taste amazingggg. I’ve even had the vegan options and it was great. The Jinya bun is fantastic, I highly recommend. Its not a shareable size though so keep that in mind. I’ve gotten Jinya over 5 times and I just never get tired. I’ve dined in and out & I don’t feel like the portion size was any different. Also the curry looks like slop but its delicious. Not as good as the ramen though in my opinion.
Our server Nichole was fantastic! Loved that she brought water to us immediately when she came to introduce herself. My husband and I loved this place and atmosphere too!
I had a great experience even on a busy day.
Darwin was very attentive and got us everything we asked for and then some, will be coming back again. Food was 10/10
By far the best ramen in DC. Not just because of flavor but the decor, location, and the overall experience was great.
Highly recommend
Carlos, and team did femininely well
This place is awesome!
I've lived in Japan for years, and the taste is most definitely there. They have a nice sized menu and the fact that there is a full-service bar 1st and 2nd floors, makes it easier to get a chair and not have to queue sit in or outside in this chilly weather.
Carlos was especially good, he took good care of us and was very attentive.. that man keeps his head on a swivel for real! Jinya! If you're reading, give Carlos a raise!!
I order the spicy ramen and it was Delicious! Our server Geraldy was Amazing! She kept checking on us making sure we were okay and needed anything else. I highly recommend this restaurant if your looking for good ramen and a chill vibe.
This is our consistently great, go-to restaurant when we want delicious ramen….especially when you want something warm. Having travelled to Tokyo, Jinya’s ramen is very authentic tasting and always dependably good. Our server Camila too is amazing - friendly and very attentive.
First time coming to Jinya and I love ramen. I sat at the bar and Zahara was very friendly and helpful. She recommended me the spicy chicken ramen and the heat was definitely there. Their old fashioned also hits the spot. Great food, great drinks, great service what else can you ask for!!!
The Spicy Creamy Vegan Ramen is great! Our server, Justin, was amazing about allergies. The food was all super flavorful and authentic.
Daniel was amazing. His recommendation were on point and I enjoyed my food and drinks.
Really great ramen spot in DC. The service is great, the environment is friendly, and the food is even better! Andres made sure we had the best experience the last time we were there. Would recommend this spot to everyone!
Quite splendid. We are glad we stopped in.
Did JINYA blow us away? No. Did they provide a decent meal at a reasonable DC price? Very much so.
If you are in the area on a busy chore day, JINYA is worth a visit. If you have been to Tokyo and experience Nakiryu, however, you may be disappointed.
Guten Appétit!
De-lish! Great options for vegans, kale noodles were tasty and beautifully done - just the right consistency. Vegan Gyoza so juicy and pert. Darwin was helpful, charming and responsive to all our requests!
Come here every Sunday after work and sit at the bar . First time meeting Sean and I felt welcomed ! Let me know about the beers and never let my drink get too low . Definitely recommend to sit at the bar especially when Sean is working!!👍
We did not have a reservation in Saturday evening ,we’re happy to wait for a table of 4 but they accommodate without wait time. We immediately proceeded to second floor dining , they got for us a cozy table.
Server recommended few starters on special we wanted to try. Food arrived in a minutes , appetizers were excellent, exactly as server recommended. We all got ramens for a main course but Umami Misso is my favorite.
Definitely coming back for more . Jinya is a great place for dinning even with kids , we had a 10mo old with us and entire experience were better than excellent . Manager Sergi stopped by the table to make sure we had a wonderful experience . Finished with mochi ice cream to complete our meal.
5-star food and service , will be back for more .
We typically prefer other ramen places in DC but we came back for Keith who works behind the bar. He gave us great service and always made sure we were well taken care of. Definitely coming back now thanks to Keith!
Great experience with my friends... the waitress was very nice and the soup we had was just really tasty, i ate the whole bowl... will definitely come back!!
Ate here with a party of 10 and had the most wonderful time! Daniel and Zahara were friendly, quick, and accommodating. The food was delicious and would come back again!
Amazing food and service! Daniel made us feel right at home and suggested great appetizers. The Poke tacos, wonton chicken ramen and tonkatsu black were phenomenal. We will definitely be back!
As always, food was amazing! Everything came out really quickly. Our server Natalie was attentive and welcoming. Will be back soon!
Good ramen, but it was quite hard to to talk to people just because the place was so loud even though not so many people were there.
What is the purpose of a tip if you are forced to pay exact amount that the place says. Why it is not included in the price and say that clearly in the menu?
The person attending our table was extremely amicable and explained everything with care. I enjoyed it so much. It was a delightful experience, and I would do it again. Thank you Natalie.
Jinya is definitely part of my ramen rotation. Love their hh deals and I recommend trying their seasonal/special ramens as these are always pretty good and you’ll crave them when they’re off the menu. The other ramens are also great, love that you can customize everything from noodles to broth to the toppings.
Great service as well. I usually sit at the bar and Keith is always so welcoming and attentive!
We really enjoyed our meal! The service was friendly and speedy. We shared the octopus and pork bun small plates and they were delicious ! Then we had the tonkotsa spicy ramen with the egg. Fantastic flavors and the broth was perfectly warm and spicy and comforting !
Second time at Jinya! Delicious food and a really chill laid-back atmosphere.
Sit at the bar and ask for Daniel!! He's a great dude and provides amazing quality service 🤙🏽
Great service by Darwin who was on hand to answer my queries and patiently waited for me to go through the options. Tonkotsu Black was very tasty and flavourful, and paired well with the hot sake - perfect for a cool day! Green tea mochi on the house was a nice touch.
Great vegan selection! Andreas cleared up any questions I had about what sauces or ingredients that weren’t vegan. Great atmosphere, definitely coming back again:)
Amazing food and awesome service! One of their managers, Chris, went out of his way to make sure we were having a great evening. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!
Where to start. My server Almaze is a Beast. She knew my name from last time, My order down to a T was Correct as she remembered it. I literally had to say nothing at all. She is such a great person and whenever she is there i need her as my server. I get the Poke bowl small everytime and its always excellence. So kudos to the kitchen on consistency
Jinya is my favorite ramen bar. The food is great and so are the vibes. Our server Daniel is super sweet and was very attentive to our table!
Awesome ramen. Top 5 bowls of ramen I’ve had across all major us cities. I got the black tonkatsu with butter, corn, broccolini (well done—a must), no egg, and if was just so good. Will definitely be going back when I’m in DC.
I lived in Japan for a while, and it was nice to find a place that serves authentic Japanese drinks and ramen. My server Keith was great as well, especially considering how busy they were!
This place was top tier! Keith was as hands down the best server/bartender I’ve experienced in the DMV area. Attentive and knowledgeable. I’ll definitely be back.
Had great service and food was good! Going to come back and check the other ramens out and might move the my review to five stars. Thanks Natalie for the great service
Amazing service from Keith at the bar! Great Happy Hour and every dish has always been perfect! Another great dining experience. I’ll be back.
Great fast service from our waiter Joseph. Food was hot and balanced between good flavor and spices. Drinks came fast too. Will definitely be retuning
Upon entering Jinya, I was invited by warm greeting from the staff. The bartenders were extremely attentive to all my needs and made the atmosphere friendly. Truly recommend for the great ambience and even greater meals.
A nice restaurant with calming bar-like vibes that primarily serves ramen and rice bowls with some sides. For vegetarians there are many options to choose from, although bit pricey, the portuons sizes are great and the food is very tasty also allowing for great customization. The staff is very friendly and I would come again. I personally recommend the Creamy Vegan Ramen with egg on the side with thick noodles.
Noodles were perfectly cooked and service was great! Carlos was warm, welcoming and accommodating. Will definitely come back!
My friends and I came by this restaurant and we’re immediately intrigued. Zahara is a great server and gave us very good recommendations for food and desserts. The servers are also very attentive.
Camila was great as a server. The vegan cream ramen was very good and the right level of spiciness for someone who wants a kick but nothing overpowering.
I had a great time here at Jinga. Been going for years. The sever, Natalie was very attentive, considerate of my vegan restrictions and very nice and fun!!! Would highly recommend again!
Ramen was amazing, vegan gyozas tasted more like chicken mmmm! You Andreas was wonderful! Really attentive and fast. Highly recommend, make sure you sit in his section!
Takoyaki ruled, hot sake was awesome in the cold. Keith did an awesome job
Great service. Ramen was delicious and beers on draft were tasty.
Very good! Perfect Ramen and service. KEITH is very nice!!
Keith & Cassandra were awesome! I came back because I love the atmosphere and upbeat vibe in the restaurant. Will be making this a weekly stop if possible!
Nicole is super awesome! Best server ever
Nice atmosphere and great food. I really liked the takoyaki. Our server Natalie was chill and friendly. Would definitely come again.
Great personalized service! Great happy hour deals and Keith at the bar is wonderful!
Alondra was our waitress and she was great, very straight forward, punctual, and gave us great tips on the D.C area. Definitely want to see her again next time I’m in town!
This is my one millionth time being to this Jinya and it’s and wonderful experience everytime! Cassandra took my order over the phone and was very polite considering I had a ton of questions, like I’ve never been here before. All in all 12/10 recommend dine in and ordering out.
This was a great spot for our first time in the city. Andreas made some excellent recommendations of the Spicy Umami Miso and Tonkastu Black ramens. Also, the Takoyaki is a must try to start off your meal.
Camilla was an amazing server 10/10 recommend the chicken bowl isn’t great but my friend got the Tonkotsu Original and that was amazing definitely recommend getting that with an additional protein
Darwin was a killer host! I was new to the restaurant so I was unsure of what to order, Darwin recommended an amazing imported beer and the Umami ramen and it was soo good! I will definitely be coming back on my next visit
The food is pretty good. The waiter Darwin is very attentive and kind. We really like our evening here. 100% recommend!
Jinya is my favorite spot in Logan Circle. The best food and the best service especially Nicole! She made our dining experience all the more memorable! ❤️❤️❤️
Dined in yesterday with a couple of friends and the food was AMAZING. I got the spicy creamy vegan And our sever was Alondra. She was very friendly and was attentive in all of our needs. I highly recommended this place!
Great food. Came out fast. Daniel was an excellent bartender. Love a bartender that keeps the drinks filled and is so accommodating.
Love Jinya come here a lot with my friends. The cocktails are amazing. Natalie was our server and was awesome!
Zahara was welcoming and attentive! I ordered a lycheetini and she made it to perfection. Our food came out quickly and it was delicious!
Best Ramen! I have been looking for great ramen and this place checked off everything on my list. I highly recommend making a reservation because wait times can be 1hr+ during dinner on weekends. The restaurant is absolutely aesthetically pleasing, trendy, and open. It is two floors and gets very crowded. We were seated up stairs where it was a tad bit more quiet which was a plus. The Jinya bun and pork goyoza as appetizers were scrumptious. Flavor, texture, and portion were perfect to get your palate for all the yummy ramen you are about to consume. I opted for the sport pork ramen and others ordered the chicken wonton ramen. The sprout pork ramen had a very flavorful broth and thicker noodles that formed a devine bowl of ramen. The spicy chicken ramen was also recommend. Come here for the ramen with a group of friends you will not be disappointed the pricing was fair for quality and area. Beer menu also available and tastes good.
Bro where do i start. maybe our server joseph he was kind and respectful and the service was great. always made sure our food was brought to us on time and even recomended some food for my daughter WHICH SHE LIKED shes so picky so having someone listen to her taste was amazing certainly a place for everyone thanks again joseph hopefully you read this!!!!!!
Jinya is rad!! Super fast and friendly service, and the ramen slaps hard. Shout out to Camilla for making my experience smooth and easy. Will definitely come back!
Super flavorful ramen with hearty portions - definitely recommend! Special thanks to our server Camila, she was so warm and welcoming! :)
Best vegan/vegetarian ramen in DC! The spicy creamy vegan is really delicious. Camilla, our server, was very nice too!
Joseph was the best waiter I’ve had in my entire trip to DC. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Love this place, definitely will come back.
Spent a lovely Sunday evening here. Natalie was super helpful and provided attentive service. The flying vegan ramen was fab. Will be returning!
Bartender Keith was attentive in like no time - had drinks and food out to us . Business lunch w/ office workers - We got in and out in under an hour thanks to Keith’s juggling many plates perfectly!
I ordered the wonton chicken ramen and it was delicious and filling. Service was speedy and very pleasant, ambiance was amazing, will be coming back again. Thank you Natalie for serving us!
The original 2010 Ramen was fantastic, I would recommend to anyone! Our server Camilla was awesome. Many thanks!
This place was packed even during the weekdays. The food was served quickly. The price was reasonable, was taken care of by Chris. Great service from him and the staff!!
Great place, very friendly atmosphere and clean..the staff were fantastic and so courteous. The ramen noodles were indeed tasty and delicious. The drinks were amazing as well. You must try hot sake to get the full effect of ramen noodles & sake 😉 …
This restaurant is amazing! I highly recommend this place. The hostess Lesly was super helpful, and I was seated right away. The food was great. I recommend the Spicy Creamy Vegan Ramen.
Heard good things about this place & decided to check it out today, especially after crazy hangover. Soon as we arrived, were greeted with good energy from the ladies at the host stand. From then on, great service provided by our server Alondra!! She recommended the miso ramen, which was rich & flavorful and nice bits of spicy. Will def come back again, hopefully not hungover next time 😅
joseph our waiter was very professional and genuine. he always checked on us id we needed anything. great to know that the service here is excellent and closer tonus than the tysons location.
Great food and very mindful of dietary restrictions. Special shoutout to Keith and Carlos, they make great drinks and are always fun to talk to. 5/5 for food, service and atmosphere.
We came here from Florida for two days and we decided to eat here. The prices are very reasonable and the food is delicious! I would definitely recommend our traveling friends to eat here.
10/10 Best place to go to when craving ramen, had the best experience and even got attend by the hostess Lesly, she seated me right away and recommended me to try Jinya's thick noodles, So sweet and so nice! Highly recommend!
Daniel, Oscar, and Jake at the top bar are amazing!!! First time being at the top bar with friends and we had a great time. Great customer service and great drinks!!
The California Poke bowl is perfect for lunch or dinner! You always have the option of small or large as well! Our wait person was super friendly!
Food is always great here and bar service from Sean today during a late lunch was excellent! Got the Spicy Umami Miso Ramen and Tonkitsu Ramen bowls and both were delicious - Miso Ramen has a real kick!!!
Ramen was delicious and cocktails and nice too! Nicole our waitress was efficient and made sure to explain the specials and potential allergy cross contamination.
Actually really love Jinya! One of the most authentic ramen places in DC. Unfortunately the 2010 Jinya ramen was way too salty on this visit. Overall, love this place :) Comfort food!
First time here and I had a blast. The cauliflower and Tokyo curry rice bowl were delicious and our waiter Camilla was so sweet!
We came from Poland and we found this Ramen bar just near our hotel and omg it was the best ramen in our life! Really, we were waiting for our turn like 20 minutes but it was worth of it! Great experience, I hope that we will be back in future! Thank you
We had a big group and Andres did a great job serving us all! Tasty ramen - tonkotsu is my fave and I tried the chicken ramen for a “lighter” option. The bao is pretty good as well!
Great food cool vibes. Joseph was a great waiter very knowledgeable about the menus helped us out ALOT. 5 stars all around!
Very nice experience especially from the waitress Natalie, definitely would have tipped more but I couldn’t at the moment unfortunately. I would recommend to go if you haven’t already!
I had a great experience with Daniel as my server. Very personable, attentive and makes phenomenal drinks. Will be back soon!
Love the ramen here but the hospitality is especially great. Diego at the bar will always make sure you have a great visit, highly recommend.
Came in from a cold walk and nothing hit better and warmed us up more then the hot sake and ramen. Daniel was a great bartender and had good recommendations!
Nice ramen place with good food and drink options. My server was Darwin and he was super friendly and service was great. Would come again
Carlos is one of the best bartenders that has ever graced this fine earth. There is another bartender who is cool too who solid takes on sports bets.
Nicole was awesome - food was great, per usual. Jinya Nigori was also surprisingly really good. Love the ambiance upstairs as well.
First time visiting this location - huge upstairs bar area helps seat people quickly. Carlos and Daniel @ the bar took great care of me - friendly and made good recommendations.
First time at Jinya Ramen Bar and everything was great. Interesting food choices, great service (Natalie was the best!) and wonderful atmosphere. I recommend this place!
The ramen tasted complex and amazing! Although I haven’t had ramen often, this is by far the best ramen I’ve ever had. Loved the vegetarian/vegan options as well.
Excellent place, I ordered the fried chicken and I loved it, my favorite dish is always spicy chicken ramen and excellent service from the food runner, I asked him for his name and he answered Melvin, he is very kind Thank you 😊
Daniel the bartender provided above spectacular and stellar customer service and made the experience all the better and the food portions were more than filling as well as the representation 10/10 overall would bang again
This place is amazing!!!!!! The ramen was very good and even real to my Japanese eye. The waitress, Amca was very nice and I would say the customer service is pretty good.
Sean is one of the dopest bartenders in Washington DC! Great service !
Our first time there, my wife and I and sister-in law had a very good meal and a fun time. The environment is had a subdued energy that plays well for date night, happy hour, or night out with friends. Most importantly, the food is really good, the staff was friendly, and the service was fast and efficient. The bar offers everything from fancy drinks to high-end whiskies. We tried to go before but it was too packed and couldn't get a reservation. Glad we kept trying. I was impressed, and you should try it!
The tonkotsu black ramen is amazing, staff was very friendly, the atmosphere is exactly what you expect from a ramen bar. Would make a good casual date night option.
I absolutely loved this ramen bar !!
I had the best waiter named Joseph ! He was very kind and moved with a sense of urgency !! Restaurant 10/10 :)
Absolutely delicious! The staff is amazing and super friendly. The food came out right away. The ramen was delicious and the kids menu was great for my son.
Perfect weather for Jinya! I always get the Flying Vegan Harvest ramen. So flavorful!!! Camilla‘s service was wonderful!
Nicole was a fantastic server! The food and drinks were great too. Highly recommend the spicy umami ramen.
I wouldve posted a picture of my meal but I couldnt stop eating…
Camila was a great hostess too! Very inviting and knowledgeable about the whole menu
Will be thinking about the Brussels sprouts here for a while. Can’t wait to be back for more ramen. Sit at the bar and if you’re luck you’ll be well taken care of by Carlos!
I got tonkotsu black, Brussels sprouts tempura, octopus balls, and some chicken. All of it was really good. Zach provided great service too!
First time at Jinya and I wasn't disappointed. The ramen was delicious & the bartender/server Keith was great. He definitely goes above & beyond. 👍🏽 …
First time here and I’d definitely be coming back! Our waiter Darwin was sweet & helpful, food came very fast! You gotta try this place
Best Ramen bar in town. Amazing vibe, great atmosphere. Darwin was an great and attentive server. 10/10 will come again
The atmosphere is lovely! Great first date option. Franke was extremely attentive as our server. The takoyaki here is LIFECHANGING! I definitely will be coming back !
Definitely recommend this place!! Delicious food! We recommend the spicy ramen, they have chicken and pork! The ebi-Katsu buns were also a fav! Our waiter was Darwin and he was so attentive and recommended us some delicious drinks like the whiskey mango. Will be back soon!
Love it here! Great selection of Japanese whiskeys and bartenders who know their stuff. But it’s the Spicy Creamy Vegan Ramen that keeps me coming back!
Excellent ramen - always pleasant service. They have really tasty vegetarian and gluten free ramens. But get the pork buns if you can :)
It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming. Amazing wines, food and service. The bartenders Keith, Carlos, and Sean are extremely knowledgeable and make great recommendations.
The line was long and we decided to put our name in, 45 min wait was estimated. She took my cell number and sent me a page and walked to a nearby pub for a drink. 20 minutes later or table was ready. We returned and were promptly seated. Or waiter took time to go over the entire menu and we decided on crispy chicken and brussel sprouts tempura, loved it!!!!! So delicious. For our main meal we all picked the chicken ramon mild, spicy, hot. A glass of raw garlic was brought to our table with a press to crush. Added to my ramen and enjoyed the best I've had every! The music is lively and the staff is support friendly. Loved the experience and highly recommend you come here. They also have happy hour from 4-7.
Daniel and Jahara were amazing! Took the best care of making sure us had everything we needed. Highly recommend.
The ramen was great, bartender did an exceptional job taking care of us. Definitely the best service of all the ramen shops in the area.
Service was awesome, vibe was good, and really yummy ramen 🤘 Shout to Keith at the bar for making my first time here great! …
Great ramen!!!I eat here very week and still love it very much!
And my server is Darwin. He is very patient and nice, provides really good service!
I would say this is best experience I had in any restaurant i’ve ever gone to. The hostess Lesly was really nice and caring and recommended me chicken chashu bowl which was really delicious. I am most definitely looking forward to coming back here soon.
Jinya is definitely a place to go after I’ve done my perusing on 14th street either with my friends or solo, there’s nothing like a nice, hot bowl of ramen after a day out on these DC streets! Not only is the food top notch, the service is fantastic too! I always enjoy when I come in and sit at the bar to see my favorite bartender Keith! He has such a great personality and makes delicious drinks! Make sure you stop by to say hi to Keith and grab a bowl of the Tonkotsu Black Ramen!
It was our first time visiting &&we Had a wonderful experience! wasn’t sure what to get but our wonderful server darwin! recommended pretty good appetizers and ramen for me &&the family ❤️
The food was great and Darwin, our server was fantastic!
Best Ramen place I’ve been to in DC and the starters (cauliflower and octopus) were incredible! Daniel also was doing great with all his recommendations!
Ramen was delicious! Good size! Place is big and clean. Nicole our server is very nice!
Joseph did an amazing job serving us on a busy Sunday night! The spicy vegan ramen broth is the best in DC.
First time diner here, was really looking forward to a hot bowl of ramen on a cold winter night—-too bad my original 2010 ramen was WAY too salty. Hope the next time i go wont be as disappointing!
came to jinya w some friends and overall it’s was the best ramen i had in dc I was greeted by the host named brenda and lead me to my table and told us what to do to see the menu and food was very good and delicious totally recommend going there !!
Keith was intelligent and friendly. We didn’t know much when we came in. He made us feel comfortable in our order
Camilla was our server & she was so kind! Best Takoyaki I’ve ever had! The ramen noodles tasted so fresh!!
This was the best ramen I have ever had. I went here for my 16th birthday and I'm so glad I did. I'm definitely coming back, hungry for more.
Keith was more worried about flipping the bar tables than he was providing good service to the guest. Did everything with a smile, but the objective of the evening was not the guest experience, it was about Keith. Ebi-Katsu bun was really good though!
I would completely recommend this place, it’s a good place to just chill while eating comfort ramen, and the attention to detail given by the people who serve is awesome especially Javier, very kind and polite, definitely one of my favorite places to visit on a lazy Friday afternoon.
The place have really good vibe and the food options are nice. And the staff is also very friendly and attentive especially the guy who attended us Andres.
Great experience at Jinya. Our waiter Darwin was amazing 🤩. For those that love impossible meat option for ramen this is the place to go.
Chicken Choshu bowl was AMAZING, love the happy hour drinks, good music good vibes, our server Camila was very nice and helpful. Will definitely be back next week
Awesome experience!!! Our waiter Carlos was amazing. He was super attentive and made the dining experience top notch! Not to mention, the food was great! Loved the Gyoza!
Ok so I had the dumplings and fried Brussels sprouts and YUMMMMMM. I know it’s a ramen bar but if you want something else, be sure that it will be delicious. Highly recommend. BONUS: the staff is incredibly nice, especially Darwin!
Sat at the bar and had Keith and he was so wonderful! Super friendly, made delicious drinks, and got our order in lightning quick

Best waiter I have had in years OMG-Joseph knew the entire menu from the back of his head, extremely friendly, professional, patient and kind. Anytime I visit, I will specifically request his area. Thank you Joseph!
Nice atmosphere, the ramen and takoyaki were a maxing with a lot of different flavors, 10/10. Our sever Zack was very attentive and made sure that we were taken cared of.
Such a fun spot! Carlos and Keith gave amazing service and were so much fun to talk to! Would definitely come back!
Jinya was an above average ramen place. The size of the dishes were great but the price was the dishes were a bit overpriced.
Daniel was a great server. Super helpful and moved quickly. My mom & I had a great meal.
Alright Ramen in a cool atmosphere. A bit bland compared with some of the other Japanese noodle joints around town. Staff was very friendly and attentive, and the appetizers were decent. Pretty wide sake selection as well.
first time dining in at jinya dc, i was greeted by this amazing host brenda she accommodated me very well and i was served my ramen and appetizer right away totally recommend dining in at jinya :)
The food, atmosphere, and drinks were excellent. Our server Darwin was kind and attentive, and the prices were reasonable
Jinya is our go to place for the yummiest Ramen in town. Nicole helped us have the best lunch on a cozy Presidents Day holiday weekend.
Camila was awesome and the service was great. Food came out almost instantly. Definitely must to eat place
My vist was outstanding Zahara my server was very helpful introduced me to the Spicy Creamy Vegan Ramen definitely my new ramen spot!

We sat at the bar during happy hour. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly, the food and drinks are delicious. Also Daniel was a great bartender.
It never disappoint. The ramen is amazing and the service on point. Darwin was such a great waiter. We really had a good time
This is hands down THE best ramen in DC (and I've tried many restaurants 😁)!! The vibes, service, and drinks are always great!
I had an amazing experience as a first timer at this bar ,they treated me so well I believe Keith and carlos Sergi the manager gave me the greatest welcome and experience someone could have I will definitely be back without a doubt
Please keep up the great service
I have dined at Jinya plenty now to say this is a genuine Japanese style restaurant. I used to live in Japan and this beef bowl is a main dish over there. I have had the pleasure of having hope as my waitress a couple of times, have to say she makes the best lemonade. Her service and smile is amazing as well. Definitely a place to go if you want to go to Japan to try some food without paying $1800 for the ticket.
So good nothing left. Andreas was such a good waiter
Vegetarian ramen was the best ramen I’ve ever had, having tried different ramen in NYC, Atl, and Boston. Service was quick and great. Highly recommend.
Great service Keith! Awesome food!
One of the most asthetically pleasing restaurants in DC. Love the ambience and the food is delicious. The pork bun was a little light on the meat and I wish there was a little more octopus in the takoyaki, but the ramen was delicious. I got the Tokyo tonkatsu ramen, finished every lady drop.
Food was delicious and the service was great, awesome atmosphere and my server Natalie has phenomenal service, I will definitely be back.
My group of friends had the BEST time - Andreas 10/10 service! Lots of great sake and food options ✨
Food was really good and the service was excellent. Our server Darwin was really nice and helpful. Would go again
Vegan creamy ramen was delicious! Andres our server was so helpful, will come again!
I'm in love , this is my first time eating Ramen and I enjoyed the experience and taste of this place , thanks to Javier for recommending the vegan Ramen I'll definitely be back with my friends.
One of my favorite local spots. Highly recommend the ramen tonkotsu black and house sake. Keith is my favorite bartender.
Jinya has the greatest vegan ramen in all of DC. The service is incredible, especially Natalie who was our waitress
