After getting turned away at The Ramen Shop we headed for our second choice, Sakuramen! After finding parking in the lot a few doors down, we ventured out to find the restaurant as our navigation told us we were 200 ft away. Look down! Sakuramen is on the lower level, down a few steps. It’s small, cozy and with tables and 1 large communal table. The ramen is amazing! We did not have appetizers, but did I mention the ramen was amazing! Just go! Finding the spot is part of the journey! We have enjoyed ramen all over the city and this is my favorite so far!!!! Go, find it, slurp and eat!!!!
Had their Tonkatsu Red Ramen with level 8 spiciness. I'd highly recommended this spot for ramen especially if you are looking for something that is flavorful as well as spicy. They have 10 levels of spiciness. Not to forget the pork is well marinated, which literally melts in your mouth.

The pork belly in the ramen melted in my mouth. Level 7 spice is HOT, which is just what I wanted! This was such a laid back spot with exceptional service.

Sakuramen is hands-down my favorite ramen spot in the DMV. The broth is incredibly rich and bursting with flavor, striking the perfect balance of savory and comforting. The portions are generous, leaving you fully satisfied. I love bulgogi and kimchi so I decided to try the Chosun ramen for the first time, and it was an absolute delight—perfectly blending those bold, spicy, and tangy flavors. The ingredients are always fresh, the noodles have just the right chew. The staff is friendly and attentive, adding to the overall amazing experience. It’s everything I could ever want in a ramen bowl and more!

I always enjoy the dining experience here. The ramen, as well as the service, is amazing every time. Spicy Pork Buns are my go-to app.

Fantastic ramen served by the nicest people you could hope for. The gyoza dumplings are a must try.

Okay ramen. More American style ramen than Japanese. The vegetarian ramen tasted like canned veggies in miso soup. The portobello mushrooms were really good, but the corn and bamboo tasted canned.

Delicious hidden gem in the basement of AdMo. Big menu and tastes delicious!
I’m from Texas so our portion size are bigger, but I can’t fault the local economy for food prices and sizes. I had the Vegan/Veggie ramen, but I love eggs so I added 3. It was good!

Easily the best ramen I’ve had! Our group had all kinds of dietary restrictions, and the chef went out of her way to make sure everyone was taken care of, super kind, patient, and genuinely wanted us to enjoy the meal. Can’t recommend this place enough!

Excellent Ramen. I had the Tonkatsu Red with medium spice and it was incredible. There was a nice serving of pork belly, but I wish there was more!
