Very good food, Service always top notch, and the place is always busy with what appears to be great clientele. I really like the Jinya bun and whenever I take someone here for the first time, I buy extra :) Really nice ambiance! Great Food.... read more

Excellent food as usual. Flavorful soups. I got the Tokyo Curry with rice this time. The watermelon delight was refreshing and pretty to look at. read more

JINYA Ramen Bar - Katy - Ramen Near Me - Katy, Texas

I love Jinya and the only one I've been to was downtown. But this Katy location seems to be a lot bigger, and the service from beginning to end is just perfection. The food is always great the options are delicious. I do have to say that the bar area is fun to sit at at this location. The bartender the day I went she was absolutely fabulous and was very attentive despite great distractions. The manager was super sweet and very attentive, genuinely cared for how our service was. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely return to this location. Parking is ample out in the front, and it is an easy location to get to right off the highway. read more

Twice already they messed up my food. I ordered spicy tonkotsu Ramen all the time and the last 2 times it was just disaster. 1 time it hurt my stomach for 2 days and the last time they didn't even put eggs. We called and let them know and the manager sounded like we didn't know what we ordered (I've been eating there at least once or more per month for over 2 years) Well, this is Houston ramen are everywhere we just have to go to a different place where service can be better. read more

This restaurant was on my radar for a while and we finally stopped in after seeing a Demon Slayer promotion. The options are limited for this promotion so I was had to try something different. Not a bad thing as I got a pretty sweet Zenitsu spoon to take home. The garlic rice was a smaller portion than expected but was fragrant and delicious with the side of birria. I LOVED the salmon poke tacos and wish there were more in an order. I could eat a dozen of these! Service was fantastic and I love the vibe dining in. read more

We had to stop here to get the spoons you get with a certain ramen bowl as part of the Demon Slayer promotion. We were greeted with a warm and friendly welcome. The establishment was not all that big but it did not feel that way. It was really clean and had fun vibes going on. Very laid back and chill. Nice bar too! It was our first time eating here so our server did a great job at explaining the menu and answering any questions we had. Our food did not take long at all to come out and everything we ordered was really good. Their menu had lots of options and fairly priced considering its location. We are looking forward to combing back and trying our luck in order to get the collection of spoons as well as trying other things on the menu. read more

First time at this location. They have more seating space so more comfortable. I usually get the tonkotsu red or black. I like level 3 spicy because it still keeps the flavor. Sub pork saboro for chashu and thank me later!! read more

The location is very nice and a new building so there is some appeal here. However, I think the food can be much better for the price they charge. The vibe is decent though so overall I would say it's a middle of the pack Ramen restaurant in the Houston area. read more

Came here on a random Wednesday afternoon and it was pretty packed. I sat at the bar & Huy was my server. I've been here so many times I order off of memory and he knew exactly what I was talking about. He checked on me multiple times and was a pleasure. Food was 10/10 as always. I ordered their watermelon, summer drink, the crispy shrimp tempura as an appetizer and the spicy chicken Ramen. (I forgot to take a before pic so here's the after. lol) Definitely will be back. read more

Love going to Jinya, always tend to go for the Tonkotsu or the Kaarage whenever they have it but this time I saw Birria Ramen on the menu and was so intrigued. THATS the kinda Houston Fusion I like to see so I had to try. FLAAAAMES. This was incredible the meat was as soft and juicy as in a birria taco and that consome flavor was on point. The broth was delicious, noodles were great, and this one did not come with an egg but I had to add one because how can you have ramen without egg?? Love that they give you full eggs and not half eggs here. Sat at the bar and our bartender / server was incredibly kind and attentive! read more

JINYA Ramen Bar - Katy - Birria Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Katy, Texas

Despite being in a strip of serious food heavy hitters (#1), the most popular option is likely this JINYA, nestled in the heart of Katy's suburbia. They've become a relatively well oiled machine with keeping their Japanese-American inspired fare consistent and their customer service reliably on point. Whether one is a novice or regular, it's going to be a good time almost every time. While the space isn't extremely spacious, they've done a great job in utilizing a layout that works for all group sizes. The bar is always a fun area to watch the kitchen staff do their thing, but larger groups can enjoy the intimate corner / side areas for more comfortable surroundings. The ambiance is especially nice at night, which could make this a quality date night destination. Kudos to the interior designer for the excellent ambient lighting. The tonkotsu black is always a safe option, which combines a fragrant broth with an equally tasty finish. I always take a nice couple of spoonful sips before bottoming out the rest of the bowl. The yuzu shio, spicy umami, and the tonkotsu original are always appreciated. While their wonton based ramens have failed to impress, the birria ramen is a complete salt bomb. The latter is admittedly a rough one, so I'd recommend sticking to their classic options. Beware of the semi-small portions when considering extra options like chashu pork, corn, or extra noodles. When it comes to toppings, I don't know of any other ramen chain that has such an extensive selection. There's no limit how one can customize the bowl to their liking, which is pretty fantastic. Shoutout to management for offering vegan friendly options as well. Their crispy chicken (aka karaage) has a nice crunch and is appropriately juicy. While I think the gyozas are overpriced at nearly $12 for 6 pieces, they do make for a nice change up palate wise. The mini tacos are definitely mini and the presentation is extremely on point. The best deal in the house might be the kids meal at $12, which comes with a mini bowl of chicken ramen, along with a mini chashu rice bowl, some crispy chicken, french fries, and even candy. The staff is what makes JINYA shine almost always. The customer service is on point and they're incredibly accommodating to point where I'm often looking forward to every visit. ___________ (#1) Which includes Twenty Five Teishoku House, Fadi's Mediterranean Grill to name a few. read more

As usual, my first dinner when I get to Katy, is the vegan ramen and seaweed salad from JINYA. It always hit! Fresh, delicious, and fast. I'm here four days, I'm sure I'll eat here more than twice. The staff is very nice, even though I typically get takeout so I can eat with the family, I'd eat there in a heartbeat. It's clean and everyone is friendly. I forgot to take pictures of all my food. Day 2 I ordered the vegan kids meal for my grandson and the seaweed salad. So good. read more

Lana is the sweetest person here at Jinya Katy. She is always so attentive and treats me with the utmost respect. I come here for happy hour during my lunch break and I love it.

Excellent food, quick friendly service. Lana was very helpful explaining the menu, and she suggested combinations that added greater value to our choices. The decor is clean and modern, with high ceilings and plenty of natural light. Jinya is in a strip mall, with dark tinted windows, so it's easy to walk right by it, and not notice it's a restaurant, but once you get inside, it's a surprisingly attractive place. I am very spoiled by Ramen I have had in Tokyo (obviously the best place to get Ramen), but Jinya is very good, and a good value, and I will definitely come back. read more

It's a chain ramen place, but each store seems to maintain quality food and service. Our server was friendly and attentive. Had the Salmon Poke Mini Taco as an appi. Interesting, but not sure I would get them again, only because I am not a fan of hard shell tacos for any kind of food. Had the JINYA Tonkotsu Black. Deelish. I should try other varieties but it's my go to. Overall, you won't be disappointed. read more

Got food poisoning from here twice. Each time tried something different. I'd run the other way.

Food was really great, my wife and I shared a black garlic ramen since she wanted to try out all the side dishes and appetizers. I think it was a good decision as all the side dishes were pretty amazing. Both my kids also got ramen, the tan tan ramen and the spicy miso or tonkatsu, both dishes were great and full of flavor. Felt really bad for the staff since my son ate so fast he ended up making a mess at the table. Staff was really understanding and showed genuine concern for him which is really nice. Def would recommend coming here and even though they're going for a modern trendy look I think its still pretty kid friendly. The music was loud but not to the point where you cannot carry a conversation like at Gen. Overall really great experience until my son happened. Definitely will come back but maybe with just me and the wife next time. read more

Jinya Ramen in Katy is an excellent spot for ramen lovers. I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen and it was rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. My wife had the Shrimp Wonton and really enjoyed it as well. Our server, Jessica, was very attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. The restaurant itself is clean, has a great atmosphere, and the music adds a nice touch. Definitely a place we'll be coming back to! read more

This is the third Houston area Jinya that I have been to and like always, I left happy and full. Just like the Clear Lake location, I always prefer the ones in the 'burbs as parking is easy and the crowds are lighter. A group of friends and I came about and hour before closing and got the familiar friendly greetings yelled at us. Our waiter was cool and handled us with ease. Like the other locations I've been to, I had to pull out my phone to shed some light on the menu since its pretty dark inside. This old man needs some light! I've been to Jinyas quite a bit and have always ordered the same apps and some ramen. We had light bites earlier so we skipped apps and went straight to entrees. I was feeling a little adventurous so I went with the Pork Chashu Bowl. I got the regular size which was a nice sized portion if you are hungry. The bowl came out quick and was very visually appealing. The bowl consisted of braised pork, spinach, green onions and a seasoned egg on top of steamed rice. I mixed it all together and it was very tasty. The same depth of flavor I get with the ramen brother was there in the pork as well. All the ingredients together made for a very delicious bite. Temp wise I wish the food was hotter. I also had to ask for something spicy to kick it up a notch. Overall, Jinya continues to be consistent at all the locations I've been to and I would not hesitate to come back to this location! read more

I was in town for the holidays and my sister took me to try this Ramen spot. Nice space, really open and inviting. It was packed but we were offered bar seating right away which we took. We ordered both mocktails that were offered on the menu, I don't remember what they were called, but one was with coconut and the other one had ginger beer in it. Both were absolutely delicious, although I wish the glasses were bigger and they didn't put in so much ice. We both ordered the black ramen.... the egg was cooked perfectly, that's always the first thing I check. The noodles were nicely cooked as well and the fried garlic on top had a nice flavor. What I didn't enjoy was the broth, it had a very porky almost gamey taste to it. I was not a fan, also kind of bland with no depth. I didn't even finish my bowl, I wasn't very impressed to be honest. read more

Food was really good every time I have eaten at different JINYA throughout the city. My son, loved the kids meal and it came with plenty of food. Enough for him to share with my husband. The other portions were not huge. They were plenty for one person but not Texas size so don't expect that. Service was great. Server was friendly and attentive. The ambiance I side is nice and calm with the mood lighting but the club music was a bit jarring and unnecessary. The place was clean, including the restroom. read more

We sat at the food prep counter and were impressed with the amount of orders churned out in the time we were there. Everyone works together as a team to make sure that guests are taken care of. Drinks were re-filled without asking. Ramen came out hot and just as pictured on the menu. Broth was flavorful, noodles were cooked well and other ingredients complemented each other (JINYA chicken ramen). Drink order and small plate order came out exceptionally fast. Our ramen order took 20-25 min to come out, but it was likely the 15+bowl to-go order in front of ours that slowed it down. Worth a trip back to try more menu options. read more

I liked everything about this place. The set up of restaurant, the big bar, the kind staff, clean restroom, etc .... My favorite thing though is the fact that you can customize your Ramen! I love when establishments have options. They have vegan and gluten free ramen too. As an added bonus they have mocktails, which is always a treat for non drinkers! My ramen was piping hot, flavorful and everything was tasty. I'll be back and it's on my list of recommendations to others. read more

Always good. One of my favorite Ramen restaurants in Katy. They are always consistent with their food and their service.

I've been here dozens of times and often get the same thing: spicy chicken ramen (spicy), add fresh garlic, cabbage, and shrimp wontons. I am a big fan of the shrimp spring rolls they had for a while. I'm hoping they bring those back. The ambience is always chill but the music is SO LOUD in the bathroom. The servers and bartenders are very professional and kind. read more
