Ordered the salmon tacos and sichuan special ramen. The salmon tacos were fresh, crunchy, and seasoned well. The sichuan ramen was super tasty, and spicy. Our waiter was also extremely professional, great time!Cheers!

Food: good! Ramen was great, could be a little hotter (temperature wise) but good. I liked the pork bun - the mean was tender and savory! Drinks were also good.Service: Our server was new. She did really well but we were given extra things we didn't ask for. We were fine but it seemed like her manager was upset with her, it was a little awkward as he essentially spoke to her about it in front of us. We didn't think it was a big deal, but her manager apparently thought so.Ambiance: I like the layout, lots of space and a large outdoor seated area for bigger crowds.

It's Houston's 7th and his mommy asked him what he wants for his birthday dinner and he said, "Ramen!" So at Jinya we went. This place is huge! It has both indoor and outdoor areas. I called ahead to make sure we can get a table right away. Service was slow and we had to ask our server repeatedly about additional orders as he seemed to forget. Lol. The three adults ordered the same Jinya Tonkotsu Black and Noah ordered the Shrimp Wonton Ramen. The bowl portions are perfect and the broth flavors are on point! I wasn't able to take a picture of the kid's meal cuz the birthday boy was hungry and started eating. Lol. He didn't eat his fried chicken and when I tried a bite, it was tough. Chris also ordered the seaweed salad which we thought was a little pricey as it only had a forkful of seaweed on top. I ordered Mochi Ice Cream for dessert but after a fee minutes our server came back to advise they were sold out. However, when I got our check, it still listed the Mochi Ice Cream in it so I had to ask him to remove it. Also, I asked what they do for a kid's birthday and the hostess said they'd bring him a dessert - that didn't happen. It would have been nice if they at least sang "Happy Birthday" to our Houston who just wanted to eat ramen on a hot summer day. That was my biggest disappointment.

Right off the bat I just want to state that I know this place has only been open a few days and having worked in a restaurant myself before many times I'm well aware of restaurant operations and have a lot of patience so the few inconveniences I experienced during my visit were not a big deal to me. I also came on a Friday night, right at prime dinner time! The food was absolutely delicious. My good friend and I came to eat here for her last night in Wichita. We shared the Curry Rice Croquettes for an appetizer. This menu item is limited time only available until 5/31. They were, perfectly crispy, creamy and flavorful and even better paired with the little house sauces on the table. We each ordered one of their featured signature cocktails. Mine was called the Lychee Cosmo, I believe. Very strong but delicious if you like grapefruit. The other drink was called the SOHO Lychee Martini. Also good, but too sweet for my liking. Unfortunately they were out of several ingredients for the 'Chefs Special' so I had to choose an alternative ramen option. They were also completely out of seasoned eggs (which is a key ingredient in ramen dishes), this was probably the most disappointing part of our dining experience for the night. I ordered the "Cha Cha Cha" which is a limited time only ramen bowl featuring pork broth, garlic and traditional veggies. It's served thick noodles (so good!) and a side of fresh garlic to add for extra flavor. The dish is designed for "garlic lovers". I thought it was well seasoned and beautiful as it was. I didn't need to add anything! She got the JINYA Tonkotsu Original 2010*. I had a small sample of it. The flavor of the broth was really good. For dessert we ordered the chocolate mochi which was simple yet delicious. We also tried the Panna Cotta with caramel and graham cracker 9/10. Absolutely delicious! Our server Jade was great despite the few set backs of the leaning curve of a newly opened restaurant. It is pricey but comparable to other ramen places. The food was honestly so good I cannot wait to come back!

Really surprising. I ordered the spicy tuna fried rice tapas, pork wontons and seaweed salad with a spicy margarita. The only slightly disappointing one was the seaweed salad served on a bed of spinach. They could just skip the latter ingredient there. The tapas entree I expected raw tuna but it was breaded and cooked. I expected to be disappointed but it was fantastic as was the service and the custom made margarita. Wow. Coming back tomorrow. Music a bit loud for my taste for the late hour and sparse attendance but not a big deal. Their in house hot sauce is amazing and those wontons rocked it. I'm coming back tomorrow to try ramen for the first time!UPDATE. I did return. And because of that I had to change the rating from 4 to 5. The spicy chicken ramen was remarkable. So glad to have had it. Had to have the same tuna tapas. Had to buy the sauce. Had to have the same awesome bartender. So happy for it. Best Wichita restaurant I've been to in 3 visits. Off the charts.

They are horribly under staffed and will probably be their downfall. Which is a shame because their food is amazing

Came here the first week it opened. Good food, horrible service. Slow, disorganized, uninformed, poor social skills. Chalked it up to growing pains. Waited many months and returned this evening. We were seated with no menus. Not a lot of people in the restaurant. We were not waited on or acknowledged in any way for over 10 minutes. No menus, no drinks, no nothing. Disinterested staff and apparently no systems in place. Poorly managed.Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Won't return.

The ambience is well lit and roomy with lots of seating. The staff were kind and quick to get me a seat! I know previous reviews are a bit abysmal, but I personally very much enjoyed this ramen dish; it was the perfect temperature for me. The noodles were cooked well, and the toppings were enjoyable (spinach, green onions chicken, pork chashu, ect). The broth is flavorful and hearty. I personally would give this place a chance, however I can't speak to how the rest of the food is!
