This is a great spot. I had a rice bowl which was good. However, my daughter had a vegetarian ramen bowl which was phenomenal. I highly recommend this place for vegetarians as there are many options. The service was attentive and kind. Not in your face friendly just very polite and attentive. I hope to go back here again.

A nice place for some ramen. I got the tonkatsu and it was delicious. The pork was probably the best part. I wish they had some type of chili crisp or something available on the table instead of having to order chili oil (it was very small and not too spicy). There’s indoor seating and I didn’t wait for a table.

Gin Ramen & Asian Tapas is by far the best Ramen place in Alexandria and surrounding areas! The service is excellent, the menu has lots of options, there is a large drink menu and the sake flights are the best!

The staff are knowledgeable when pairing foods with drinks. I had never tried sake and after visiting here, I am now a huge fan!

Please add this wonderful spot on your ‘must try’ list!!!

Thank you, Gin Ramen!
