We have been here twice in the last two weeks. The first vist was with 4 adults two children and a two year old. We arrived at given time and were seated immediately by one of the most competent friendly server I have ever had. Our family members were late so we ordered appetizers and finally we ended up ordering all meals because they were still at the swim meet. No problem when our 14 year old grandson and parents and sister and two year old finally arrived. All meals were immediately served and our server was very pleasant and friendly. Ok all meals were absolutely delicious!!! Oh and desert and ice cream get the lime cheesecake! We had won tons kao pai chicken orange chicken beef skewers chicken udon and chicken teriyaki. We went back last week and again a different server was efficient and helpful. Meals appetizers and desert were nicely presented and flavorful.Make a reservation and ask for a table by the window we went at sunset with the moon rising you will love it

Stopped at Jinja to have drinks and appetizers with friends. The appetizer selection was Asian fusion and the choices were extensive. We shared five plates among the four of us and were full and content. Flavors were bright and stimulating. Service was prompt and efficient. Will return.

As I sat in Jinja, I searched for nice things to say.... let's see: the hostess was sweet. The bar seemed like it had " meet up" potential. The booth we sat in was pleasant and the water was served in a clean glass. If I had only stopped at the water, this visit while not memorable, would be adequate. Unfortunately, I was lulled into thinking it had edible food because it was, after all , a restaurant. I ordered food and that was my downfall. While the orange peel chicken was forgettable that turned out to be the better meal. The MuShu pork was horrible . The crepe style pancakes were completely overlooked and looked like broken chips. The actual dish lacked flavor and the chicken lettuce wraps were so bad that we could only eat one of the four servings. As I paid the bill, I wished I had donated more money to the Salvation Army santas.....my stomach and the recipients of the $ would both be happier if I had.

My business lunch was a positive, pleasant, enjoyable experience at a reasonable price. The service was appropriate but not overly attentive w/ a wait staff pleasant & professional. Didn't see a Manager in evidence at any time, too bad, one should take interest in their guests! Overall experience positive & this wasn't my first time. "Eat healthy my friend!"
