I've been there twice with different colleagues. Ramen is very tasty with full of flavors and well prepared toppings, so as all appetizers.
Why 4 stars? Music. Too loud that makes us need to yell at each other at the table which makes the space more noisy. All of us had hard time catching what the helper was saying to us or talking to each other. Both time, after leaving the restaurant, we were saying "food is good... but... not again." Please turn down the music.
Ramen is very tasty, would recommend the food, service not so much. When ordering for pick up, staff on phone are very hard to understand (poor english). You can hear that it is extremely loud in the background and it makes it difficult for customer to place an order. I had to repeat myself multiple times and staff member was rude when I had to correct my order if repeated back to me incorrect. Seems to me that customer service is a big/ very common concern in most all of the reviews not so much the food.

Came here on Sunday for lunch at 1230p. Started to get busy. We got a table for 4 right away but a few minutes later there was a line. This is an American chain. Seems very hip with lots of people but also families. They were very busy which is a good sign.
I had the Tonkotsu Spicy with thick noodles. Broth was perfect and the noodles were great texture. No egg though which I didn't realize. Kids had Tonkotsu Black with thin noodles. They seemed to enjoy it. Came with a full egg. They also ordered extra noodles this time thick. At other Ramen places normal noodles seems to be between this ones thin and thick. Wife had the Sprouting Up Tonkotsu with thick noodles. Lots of sprouts - she doesn't like Brussel sprouts. Good flavour. She thought the noodles were too thick and the thin ones too thin.
Servers were friendly and quick and came by to check on us once in awhile. They serve tap water here so I went with a Sapporo which came quickly. Food was quick too. Parking is street parking which can get filled up on Sunday.
Spicy chicken ramen was delicious! Thr service was quick and very friendly. It's a bit small so you might have to wait but it's quickl. The Bao was very good too it was a nice size
Highly recommend for people who love ramen and also for people who don’t. Very polite staff. .... I’m visiting again soon. ........... keep it up
The sprouting up ramen was delicious! I love how the restaurant puts condiments on the table so you don't have to ask for them (I'm talking about the hot sauce, love spicy things). The food was quick and service was good. I like the thicker noodles better but if you like spaghetti like noodles, try the thin one.
First impression - a small noodle bar but clean. Friendly people. Quick service. Okay ramen - too much salt for me. I went back the second time - same salty ramen bowl. I’ll ask them to lower the salt next time I visit.
There is not a lot when it comes to vegan options, you can get the vegetarian but with vegan noodles, or you can get the spicy creamy vegan, which is what me and my partner had.
The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable in the menu, service is quick, and the dish is pretty damn good.
Loved the texture of the noodles, all the toppings/add-ons, the broth had amazing flavor, but I not very spicy and a tad bit salty.
I've looked at other places for vegan ramen, and so far this one seems to be the best.
Finally a ramen joint in Calgary that doesn’t embarrass the cuisine!
A little disappointed that noodle thickness isn’t an option but overall neither are great anyway. (Thick is spongy, thin is mediocre)
Most of the broths are fairly good and I’m partial to the Cha Cha Cha, I feel that they spread themselves thin in quality by providing too many options though.
Side dish choices are standard and get the job done, service was prompt!
Great place to eat. Usually busy so you know the food is good and delicious. A bit on the pricey side but overall, really tasty food. I like the fact that the spice level has different variations! I love me some spicy ramen!
Taste was good.
Chicken broth also good but a little bit blend for me. (Jinya Chicken Ramen)
If they had a togarashi powder(chili powder), it would be great. I added chili oil instead but not the way I wanted to.
Restaurant's Mood is good but too dark for me so easy to get your eyes tired.
Service was not that bad but not that good.
Price wise a little bit expensive.
Overall, I will visit again in the future.
Ramen was good and very flavourful. The salmon taco and cone have good flavour. They presented the Salmon cone on raw rice box. There were few raw kernels in between the cone. Besides that everything was good. Service was good also.
Food was good, they have vegan options. We ordered ramen, i promise! And they were really good! I was just slow to take pictures! My party eats fast and ramen serving is big! We ordered 3bowls of ramen for party of 4. Chasu donburi came out fast and really good! The tacos were baby tacos but excellent! We got Jinya bun and crispy spicy shrimp tempura that my kids snacked on...ask the dressing on the side. The place sits 30-40? So it gets full fast, we were ealy and got seated right away, in a span of 10minutes place was packed for lunch.
First time trying Jinya Ramen Bar, great set menu for Ramen dishes, love the flavours and everything goes we’ll together. Only giving 4 stars because I wish you had the ability to customize the broth flavours with all dishes, since alot of others may have certain dietary restrictions but may still want to try alot of the ramen choices just can’t because of the some broth ingredients etc.
I’ve been here a couple times, I really enjoy the texture of the thin noodles. They’re not overdone or soggy. Although I wouldn’t recommend the singular cocktail that they have there. Overall, I would come back again.
Jinya is my favorite ramen place in the city. Their menu selection accommodates vegan and gluten free soups and noodles. Delicious small plates and they've recently added Impossible meat substitutes to a number of items.
Always bustling but their service is efficient so you can generally get seated in reasonable time.
My first time trying food here but it was definitely 1 of the best ramen places in the city hands down! I tried their 'Flying Vegan Harvest', its for anyone who can handle a bit of spice, great flavors come through, while the broccoli was a bit unseasoned, the broth and seasoning sauce made up for it. The noodles were well cooked and thin making them very light to eat. The tofu was also delicious. There is no need for extra toppings as the ramen originally comes with a lot on it. Overall great food and I would definitely come back here!
