One of the best Ramens in town!! Wish they had more service hours and more Japanese appetizers in the menu. But this ramen worth it!
Great ramen and tasty karaage.
Very very good. Maybe music was a bit too loud, but the food and staff were excellent.

Menya Hosaki is a renowned ramen restaurant that offers an exceptional dining experience for both meat-eaters and vegetarians. The menu boasts a small but mighty selection, including shoyu, tonkotsu, tantan ramen, and Onomichi ramen. The tonkotsu and shoyu ramen are 100% authentic Japanese style, with a rich, flavorful, and slightly sticky broth and fantastic, springy noodles that are beautifully balanced.
The restaurant's vegan and vegetarian ramen options are particularly impressive, with a rich, creamy almond milk-based broth. The chicken karaage is crispy, juicy, tender, and generously portioned, making it a must-try.
Menya Hosaki is widely regarded as one of the best ramen spots in the DC area, with some calling it the best ramen in the world. The restaurant's interior is small but cozy. While the popularity can mean a wait, the line moves quickly and the food is absolutely worth it. Arriving 15 minutes before opening is recommended to avoid a long wait.
The service is delightful, with incredibly friendly, kind, and welcoming staff. Guests can expect fairly priced, amazing Japanese food that leaves them eager to return. A must-visit for ramen enthusiasts.
