At Kinya, we are more than just your ordinary ramen and sushi restaurant. Our focus is more than just the food we serve, it’s the experience.
We recently hosted a party of 22 people here, and I am still amazed at how incredible our experience was! We had only one waitress taking care of our entire group, and she was absolutely outstanding. She was patient, attentive, organized, and handled everything with such a positive attitude. We usually have large family gatherings and often have multiple servers, but we have never experienced service this amazing before. I honestly can’t believe how she managed to take care of all 22 of us so smoothly — she never missed a beat! The food was absolutely delicious, and everything came out wonderful. If we could host all of our family parties here, we definitely would. Keep up the amazing work — you truly made our night special. Thank you so much for making more daughter’s 18th birthday so special. We will definitely be back!!! 🥰

Well, it started out well and I was really excited to try a new ramen place. The staff are really nice, the decor is very pretty, and overall I wanted to like everything. The gyoza were delicious and tender, and the "chips" with sweet chili sauce were good also. I got the tonkotsu ramen, which is how I determine if it's a good ramen restaurant. My boyfriend got the spicy ramen. His spicy ramen tasted good, but my ramen was disappointing. The broth was good, not as flavorful as some local places, but the noodles were absolutely terrible. I mentioned it to the staff, and they actually were agreeing with me. They were basically the same thing as angel hair spaghetti. They are apparently called the "white noodles," and the golden ones were the ones in my boyfriend's ramen. I asked why exactly they would use the white noodles if people complained, and it was mentioned that it may just be to save money. I could barely eat them, and it was very bland and underwhelming. The chicken that I ordered on top of the ramen, had pepper on it, but was not flavorful. I ate most of the gyoza and didn't want the ramen, and my bf liked the spicy pretty decently. I guess the "white noodles" were the main fault. They had a cool wall to make wishes on, and they're next to a frozen yogurt place which helped redeem the dinner experience.

I brought my family who flew in to visit us for dinner on the way home. Dinner was delicious. We had different ramen bowls and my wife tried a California roll. The ramen bowls are so big it would probably feed two people so come hungry. Service was attentive and they kept following up with us. I am looking forward to our next visit.

Doggone it, I wanted so much to add photos to my review, but the rolls were SO incredibly good that we wolfed them down too quickly. We ordered the Godzilla roll (I grabbed a to-go menu on the way out so I could add a menu photo- holy moly, DIVINE), the Tropical roll, Vietnamese coffee (canned but very yummy, not overpoweringly sweet), and the mochi ice cream (mango and matcha I believe). We'll be frequent customers for sure. Excellent service (food was out in like 5 minutes!), and very kind staff. Definitely a must try in Meridian!

Good food, but very average everything else. The Ramen isn't really exceptional but it is still very good. The seating is rather close together. Even though there is dividers, you can hear everything from the table across, next to and behind you. Not crazy loud or anything, just consider what you want your neighbors hearing. The service was fair, judging by the time we were there. There was younger servers and they didn't seem to be able to handle being busy as they were getting a little confused and asking random tables who's orders were who's, but they did make up for it in kindness and going the extra mile in some areas. All in all a good experience and not bad food, just give yourself some time and have patience and don't expect fine dining. Would recommend the spicy Ramen and beef ramen.

We went here because I didn't want our usual option. Incredibly fast service, fresh food, the fried wontons were a nice touch. Ramen- the beef ramen...
