6. JINYA Ramen Bar - San Jose
Authentic Japanese ramen with customizable toppings
Immerse yourself in the bustling charm of JINYA Ramen Bar in San Jose, where a delightful weekday lunch unfolds amidst ease of parking and a relaxed outdoor seating setting by the cozy warmth of a heater. While the ambience exudes a captivating allure, the proximity of neighboring diners resembles a lively bar counter experience.
Relish in the expansive outdoor seating area teeming with an array of delectable food choices and tantalizing appetizers. Yet, the charm diminishes within the compact indoor space, where lackluster dishes, notably subpar chicken quality, fail to excite the palate.
