Flavor combinations are just perfect. Shrimp and calamari was cooked perfectly. Every drink had a great balance of flavor, My bae was my fav. the Beef Carpaccio was so beautifully plated, wanted to just look at it. Staff were professional and very accommodating, great suggestions as well. Food came our timely and portions are just right. And the Jinbar special dessert was a nice ending to the experience. Those tapioca perals were a surprise at the bottom of the plate :) Will come back and try other items soon!

Had an opportunity to return two weeks after my first visit, this time on a busy Saturday evening and was not disappointed! Food & service was excellent despite the restaurant being full. In my previous review I said this place was a gem and not to be missed, Jinbar got even more shiny last evening.
