Ramen brand to open second New Jersey location at the Shops at Riverside

Los Angeles, CA  (RestaurantNews.com)  JINYA Ramen Bar is officially expanding its footprint in New Jersey with a new restaurant opening at The Shops at Riverside, one of Bergen County’s premier lifestyle destinations. Located at 390 Hackensack Ave., #171A, the Hackensack opening marks JINYA’s second location in the Garden State and its 81st location systemwide, bringing the brand’s modern, approachable Japanese ramen to this vibrant area.

To celebrate its arrival in Hackensack, JINYA will host a grand opening event on April 15, where the first 100 guests will receive a free bowl of ramen to redeem on a future visit.

“We’re thrilled to open our second New Jersey location in The Shops at Riverside,” said Tomo Takahashi, founder and CEO of JINYA Holdings Inc. “Hackensack is a dynamic community with a strong appreciation for great food, and we’re excited to become part of the neighborhood and look forward to welcoming our guests.”

Once open, the Hackensack location will operate Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.

At JINYA, ramen is more than a meal – it’s an experience. Guests can indulge in slow-simmered, thick, flavorful broths perfectly paired with handcrafted noodles. Toppings like tender pork chashu, shrimp wonton and seasoned eggs add depth to every bowl, while small plates and craft beer selections complete the dining experience. With a commitment to authentic flavors and quality ingredients, JINYA brings an elevated take on traditional ramen. JINYA is ramen culture, where the relationship between broth and noodles is at the heart of every dish.
