A great place for dinner! The food was delicious, drinks were excellent and the specialty (limited time) cheesecake dessert was silver of the best I've ever had!

Jinja is a secret favorite of mine. I grew up in San Francisco around authentic Asian food, so I don't know if I would really call this restaurant "Asian style cuisine", but it is delicious either way.Probably my favorite thing about this location, and all Jinja restaurants, is the atmosphere. It's casual dining, but the atmosphere makes you feel fancy.Only deducting one star because like everywhere, prices are through the roof. Lunch for two with my buddy last weekend cost us $60, split two ways.Will be going back, but probably just for birthdays or other special occasions.

So I really wanted this to be a good place, since my coworkers were recommending it! my first time eating here. I ordered the halibu rice wrapped fish plate with fried rice. ? Fish cane out of the freezer No flavor no seasonThe fired Rice definitely came out of of a premade box.My husband order pad Thai noodles and I know he was not happy. He just sat there and ate it all because he paid for it not to mention the bills we very expensive. It's ashame we had to pay for it all. Really looked like the place was shorthanded and they just had anybody in the kitchen cooking that did not know how.The poor waitress was doing both bartending drinks and serving a large area of tables all by herself. It took very long to get served but I felt really bad for her so I tipped her well. My daughter ordered the orange peeled chicken which had extremely too much salt on it and even for a 15-year-old she didn't want it. We will not be going back

The food was awesome! Service was top notch. There are so many food choices that I need to go back (numerous times). And an added bonus, the wooden booths have pillows so your back is supported. Oh, and they don't apply a service charge for paying with a credit card.

Food, service, drinks, atmosphere is all top notch. The views of the Sandías are phenomenal. I really appreciate them taking care of me and a friend last night. Coming from a background in fine dining, I applaud the entire staff, especially our server (left receipt or I'd put down her name) who was excellent. We had the Mongolian beef and the kung Pao chicken which were both delicious and good layering of flavor. The bartender made a tasty white Russian. Thanks again Jinja crew.

Went for Valentine's Day 2024. I thought it was overpriced for kinda meh food. The cocktail I got was pretty, but also not that good. I haven't been here for about 10 years and I was disappointed. I got some Hoisin ribs and Rice Paper Halibut, which was okay, but the side Tom Kha-like coconut soup I got was wayyyy too sweet (the Tom Kha at Thai Tip on Wyoming is sooo much better and about 5 bucks less for twice as much, fyi).The atmosphere was pretty though, and I liked the big band music. The bar was really cool-looking.The server also didn't come get our check for a very long time and when she finally did, she printed the final bill as being 10 dollars over the original price we were expecting. We didn't want to wait any more so we just paid, tipped because we're nice, and left...goodbye forever, $115!

I've had better meals here in the past. The soup was tepid. The service was marginal.

Food was good, just wondering why the tofu is so huge! Overall good experience. Like there are vegetarian options for a decent amount of menu items.
