What can I say about Jinya other than its my favorite ramen place. For me, no other ramen place has matched up to Jinya until now.
Jinya at San Jose has a good patio seating with a table fire and ceiling heaters. These made the seating comfortable for when we were there a few days ago on a cold California night.
The food, being hot and spicy, kept the cold at bay. Spiciness, of course, is as you want it. Mild, medium, spicy, and hot. If want spicier than hot, do ask your waiter for the extra spice if it's not already there at your table.
The food quantity and quality as usual was a chef's kiss. I am still lamenting about the fact that they stopped the spicy edamame. I wish they bring it back on the menu. The regular edamame, even though good, doesn't match up to the spicy edamame that they had a few years ago.
Overall, you won't be disappointed with Jinya. Its always been a definite revisit for me if I'm eating at the restaurant. Take out is kind of iffy. I like the ramen hot. Take out neans cooled down food, which even upon reheating isn't that great. So I recommend eating at the restaurant, if you are comfy.l doing that.
Ambience is nice and so is service.
But food is okaish.
I tried vegan harvest ramen and spicy chicken ramen. Both were okay!
They weren’t spicy even when I ordered hot version of it. And their meat imitation was little sweet in taste. It wasn’t bad but definitely doesn’t taste like meat! :D
Overall it’s ok to visit/skip.
Great taste and wonderful ambiance. The chicken broth ramen was delicious with a spicy chicken, love this chain restaurant and glad that they main the same taste.

I think this is my very favorite Ramen bar in San Jose - it is hard to say specifically why but I always feel very satisfied after I eat here, more than I have been in the other places I have tried.
It has a fairly simple layout, yet still quite comfortable. My preference is to sit at the central table with the fireplace built in, but there are plenty of tables both in the main area as well as in the outdoor extension.
I tend to prefer the Tonkotsu Black ramen, often adding some shrimp wonton noodles to it. This is very tasty and all the ingredients make a nice blend with the rice noodles, and the soft boiled egg is always a treat.
They have a great selection of small plates as well, including caramelized cauliflower, tempura brussel sprouts, octopus balls, and spicy tempura shrimp.
This Friday makes it a great place to visit somewhat frequently since you can jump around between the various ramen dishes as well as the small plates.
If you're looking for a great ramen place with very tasty dishes, this place is highly recommended.
Good vegetarian options available 🌱 Vv pretty vibe, perfect for a good dinner w friends / date!! Outdoor seating available
Must try🍜
Spicy creamy vegan ramen
You cannot substitute the toppings but can remove/ add (extra$$)
I visited this place twice. The service is good and quick. I tasted 2 different vegetarian ramen(both spicy). I liked the spicy creamy vegan ramen better. I'd have liked tofu to be fried/cooked . The tofu they put is super bland. Their outdoor patio has ample space. There will be a little wait when you go for dinners on the weekend. The parking is always full since it's in the mall. It's a good try- but not my to-go spot!
Been a year since I went here. Ordered the spicy chicken Ramen and Jinya bun. The Bun was the highlight and I recommend getting it. The Ramen was good but the portion was small. It's a good place to get appetizers and drinks. But for main dishes I feel you'll be paying more than what you deserve. A good place to end the night if you just get drinks and appetizers. Not really a good dinner place. But the Ramen is still good. Just not a highlight.
Excellent ramen place with flavorful food. Loved the vibe inside and the food turned out to be delicious. We are vegetarians so tried their impossible gyoza, impossible bun, flying vegan harvest ramen and spicy creamy vegan ramen. It’s little on the expensive side but worth it as far as food is concerned. The gyoza 🥟 were really good in taste so as the vegan impossible bun. Both the ramen had different flavors and the portions are really good. We’d definitely be coming back here. The place is quite busy so expect a wait, I’d recommend to go early especially if it’s a weekend and you’re going for dinner.
We went as party for 4. I like that the place serves good ramen even for vegetarian since all of my friends we’re vegetarian. It didn’t take long to grab a seat. But took a while to get our order.
I liked the broth of the ramen, the Brussels sprouts were way too oily but the chicken fried was good.
I would definitely recommend this spot for vegetarian who wants to have ramen.
