JINYA Ramen Bar - Edmonton

“ok so its not technically a brunch spot but their late morning service just hits different!!! real talk tonkotsu ramen is like the BEST hangover cure ive found in edmonton hands down haha”

“for real the space gets absolutely packed during lunch rush adn the tables are so close together you're basically eating with the people next to you lol 10/10”

“yo teh tonkotsu ramen is insane value like a massive bowl wiht rich cloudy broth, tender chashu, perfectly cooked noodles all for under 20 bucks not gonna lie”

“teh gyoza were disappointingly tiny for what they charge especially compared to how generous the ramen portions are solid”

“teh kids absolutely demolished the chicken karaage. perfect bite sized pieces, light crispy coating that wasnt too heavy, and my picky 8 year old actually liked the mild dipping sauce which never happens”

“teh wait was almost 45 mins on a tuesday night which sucks when youve got restless kids sitting there trying to entertain themselves”

“seriously teh mochi ice cream trio was absolutely incredible - like perfect texture with the chewy outside and then creamy matcha black sesame and yuzu inside just so good chefs kiss”

“they dont do wine PAIRINGS wiht ramen which seems like theyre missing out on making it feel more like fancy dining you know ha”

“actually teh spicy miso ramen actually brought legit heat that built throughout the bowl its not just spicy on the surface, its like a deep warming burn that actually made the pork broth better dead serious”

“i asked for extra spice and they seemed kinda hesitant to do it? like they played it safe instead of jsut trusting that i could handle it not gonna lie”

“yo so pumped tehy have a whole halal menu section! the Spicy Miso Ramen wiht halal chicken was insanely flavorful like the heat level was perfect”

“so like the gyoza though.. theyre tiny AND theyre charging $8 for three pieces which honestly even for downtown feels like alot”

“the whole minimalist japanese thing with the warm wood and soft lighting just makes you feel calm, and you can actually hear yourself think unlike literally everywhere else downtown”

“like fair warning tho the communal counter seating gets cramped if youre in a group bigger than like two people cant complain”
