    When I saw the IG post on Hoppin's account about K Loco being their new food truck on site, I immediately added it my ever growing Charlotte food list. They are found right around the corner in the parking lot next door to Hoppin' which makes it super convenient to grab a drink while enjoying some good food. The guys making it all happen behind the window were super friendly and very quick to get orders up and out! My friend and I ordered the birria tacos and a half and half K- dog. The tacos and dip were enjoyable. The flavor was strong, but not overpowering. The k-dog had just the right crispiness with the perfect amount of sweetness from the sugar. The cheese pull was pretty epic, but was not the warmest. We also wanted to try loaded fries, but unfortunately they ran out of fries, which was a bit of a disappointment, but there is always next time.

    Got some tocos, the meat was super good but the tortillas were not and cold. The owner was super nice and responded to our feedback. Would definitely try more items on the menu!

The broth had so much depth of flavor, honestly comparable to some I've had in Japan. You can sit at the counter or at a table, but I'd recommend the counter--it was fun watching them prepare everything. Really impressive spot and a great option even if you don't eat pork or beef.

We circled for about 10 minutes, fighting off three other cars, before finally finding a spot. We arrived just before opening on Sunday and were seated promptly. The place was clean, and the ordering process was straightforward. However, they nickel and dimed you for everything. We ordered two pork bun and black tonkotsu ramens with the recommended extras. The pork buns were small and came with shredded pork, which I don't like. The ramen was small for $18, and the flavors were okay. But something was off with the broth. When I asked our waitress for some chili sauce, she told us to order it through the app, which goes back to my previous comment about being nickel and dimed for everything. In total, our bill came to $67.55, which I thought was a rip-off for just okay ramen. I won't be returning because I've found much better ramen elsewhere at much lower prices.

My husband can't seem to deviate from this amazing bowl as well. In any case, both are highly recommended! I also shared their Seaweed Salad appetizer with my husband...and we both agreed that it was really fresh. Few things that could have been better? The overhead music wasn't right...genre (whatever that was playing?!?) was way off for the restaurant. Also, I felt that they might have been understaffed. The place was quite busy (Saturday night), and I didn't see too many waiters-waitresses. Despite the service being a bit slow, our waitress was friendly, and remembered everything that was requested...so not a big issue. Still, we really enjoyed this ramen experience. Really can't think of a time I thought their foods were bad.

It took 10 minutes to even be addressed by staff in the lobby, where there were numerous people waiting to be either sat for dine in, order placing, and order pick up. A table of 4 walked in right before me for dine in service. Then I placed my to go order. All I ordered was pan fried gyoza and a side of steamed rice. I had a discount to add, which the hostess did not know how to do, so I had to wait for someone else to come to the front in order to pay. Someone finally came up and I was able to pay. While I was waiting on my food, I noticed another woman was there to pick up her to go order and she was not addressed by any staff for almost 15 minutes. I continued waiting for my food for over 30 minutes-for a single appetizer and side of rice. By 45 minutes, I was letting other people that came in know how long the food was taking. Another woman who was waiting on her to go order heard me say it had taken a while and said she had placed her order ahead but a lot of time had still elapsed by the time it was ready. They brought her order out and I had to ask another server if they could check for my order. When they finally brought it out, it had been over 45 minutes. As I was talking to the server, the party that walked in before me for dine in service had finished their meals and were leaving the restaurant. I asked for a refund, which the server obliged and apologized for. Once I got back to the office and opened my food, it was disappointing to say the least. The "pan fried" gyoza was barely fried, and the dumplings were so gooey that they were sticking to each other and the plate and falling apart. Every time I try to give Jinya a chance, I am disappointed again and again. After returning to the office, I spoke with other coworkers who have all had similar experiences recently. Suffice to say I definitely won't be giving them any more chances.

I also liked how loud the overhead music was...but sadly, it was elevator music. Very dated. If it was something a bit more contemporary (metro lounge?), it would have been way nicer. Now, the food! I ordered their Doza Ramen, which looked spicy from the pictures...but I ended up with a very mild broth, with hardly any red chile sauce or spice to it at all. I even asked if they can add more chili and/or spice to it, and the waitress basically said that's not possible (What?!? Of course you can!!). Anyway, she said I can add Siracha sauce. (???) Guess she assumed this was the first time I had ramen lol?!? The Pork Chashu was nice and tender, but very small portion...and a tiny portion of ground pork (of beef?) and mushroom as well. Just skimpy toppings all around...yet this bowl was priced 18 bucks. I also hated how they didn't even bother to split open the egg. Also, I wasn't a fan of their super-thin noodles either. Just look at how unappetizing this bowl looked! So basically, this ramen struck out on several accounts. Possibly the weakest ramen I've had in a restaurant in years?? I managed to down at least one third of it though. Then this Sampler Tempura. While the portion of plentiful, I thought the batter was weak...and well, some of the veggie tempura just tasted BAD. Especially the Brussel Sprouts (which I normally love) had this sour taste to it? I was also disappointed that they didn't include Broccoli in the mix. I was only able to eat half of this. Just not that good. I just can't sugarcoat it. I was not into their ramen or this sampler tempura. Both too mild...very bland. Also...they charge you an additional dollar if you use credit card. Something I don't recall seeing on the menu. Given such high ratings from Yelp, I had high hopes for this place...but I left scratching my head. I doubt I'll be returning anytime soon.

It was our first visit and we wanted to try the curry. We ordered the Thai Red Curry and the Thai Green Curry. Both were perfection! The red curry had just the right amount of spice to give it flavor, but not be too spicy hot. The green was mild, but flavorful. The dumplings were so good. These were both very good and we added shrimp and chicken. I believe they would be just a satisfying with only the vegetables.

They genuinely did not taste like chicken at all, and I couldn't even finish them. I strongly recommend staying away from that item. I also tried to order a bubble tea without ice and was told I'd be charged an extra $2 because they would need to "add more juice." I didn't ask for extra juice, just no ice!!! And charging extra for that feels unreasonable and borderline price gouging. Ridiculous!!!! Between the poor food quality and the frustrating service, the overall experience wasn't great, and I won't be returning.

Once we got there we were sat down immediately. Once seated our server, very polite Spanish young woman came to greet us and took our orders. The server even recommended a kids meal for our daugther. So far so good. Our food comes and we realized we have no utensils and my daughter's noodles had no broth in it. It was dry noodles. The server comes back asked us if we needed anything and we said yes can we have some utensils please? A fork and some chopsticks and broth for my daughters noodles. They are dry. She says sure no problem and leaves. Now while we are waiting two Spanish women we seated behind us. In the time we were waiting the two guest behind us placed their orders and got their food. When the server comes back she hands us 3 pairs of chopsticks and garlic. Walks back to the two women and hands one of them a fork. Still no fork or broth my daughter's noodles. My wife had to pour the broth from her ramen into our daughter's bowl so she can eat. The server comes back again with 3 GOT DAMN SPOONS and says she couldn't find any more forks. So in the entire restaurant theirs not ONE FORK. I said but you just gave those customers a fork. Pointing to the guest behind us. She says sorry and walks over to the guest behind us. The server starts talking to the guest in Spanish but little does she know I speak Spanish. The server starts complaining about us to the guest saying that we're asking for too many things and we need to shut up and just eat our food. when I told my wife that they're talking about us, she immediately asked for the manager we explained our situation and the manager immediately comped our meal. Terrible experience. Atleast we didn't have to pay for it.
