| - I've been to the JINYA in Houston, TX, so when I heard there was a Las Vegas location, I wanted to eat something I was familiar with from home. With that being said, chains aren't always the way to go. The consistency and quality of the Ramen broth was not there.
First off, right when we walked in, there wasn't a wait which is definitely a plus. The restaurant only had a few tables of patrons. So we were quickly seated in the corner. I noticed the table was sticky and flagged down a server to ask for napkins to wipe it down. The waitress looked at me annoyed as if I made up the story to make her like more difficult. She probably deals with tourist all the time. So I was a little empathetic. But For a half empty restaurant, customer service should be king!
When she came back to take our orders she didn't even remove the dirty napkins off the table. But that's okay. I just placed it out sight in the corner.
Now to the food. I ordered the pork ramen and added some extra goodies. The food came out fairly quickly. But when I tasted my broth, it had a sour taste to it. But since the waitress already had an attitude, I decided to just add some gyoza and ponzu sauce to mask the taste. It did help with the broth. Needless to say, hours later, my stomach did not agree.
My whole experience was just not satisfactory. From the dirty table, to the unnecessary attitude, and the broth itself, I won't be returning to the Vegas location any time soon.
