| - Oops, this one slip through the crack among the reviews. I suppose you have say the word JINYA with a yelling voice since it is all capitalized? During our quest to hunt down ramen in Vegas, we found JINYA in strip mall on Flamingo Rd, which was a little different since I was once told all the ramen places are on Spring Mtn Rd in Vegas. It was not too busy when we went in the afternoon, and the place was quite big.
We started with some Fresh Tofu and it took a while to prepare, but it was totally worth it, since it came out quite awesome from tofu liquid and turned into solid within seconds, and you can customize the flavor you want with different amount of toppings and sauce. The Dynamite was ok, a little too heavy on the Americanized flavors for my taste.
The Jinya Black Ramen was surprisingly delicious, it had a nice balance with the broth, meat was tender, noodles were cooked al dente, and egg was perfect soft boiled, not quite an onsen tamago. We ended our meal with some Green Tea Mochis that were just regular mocha, and the Tofu Almond Dessert, which was very nice and refreshing.
I am surprised to found out this to be a chain later, and they definitely kept up the quality at this location. The menu was big enough for me to return here again in the future. The staffs were also friendly as well, not the same typical Asian restaurant service you would get.
