“Every SINGLE time I order from Akira. They do something that just warms my heart and expresses the level of service that is rare to find these days. In addition to phenomenal flavor profiles- the way they package your order with care each time is unreal. If I ask for something as simple as extra broth or extra ginger they never forget. I really appreciate them and they are my ramen go to each time.“

“Delicious food, cozy place!!“

“I recently moved to Annandale and was looking for good food and Kozy Ramen and bar did not disappoint! I love the original Tonkatsu Ramen with Chasu bun combo and pork Gyoza. The Ramen and the pork and everything is just so good and flavorful. I’ve been disappointed several times by Ramen restaurants in NOVA but I will definitely be returning here. The service was also great, and the staff was very friendly.“

“best staff best ramen my peace“

“I’ve been coming here for over a year now, and they never disappoint!! I’ve tried all the noodle options they have, and one thing I love most about this place is that I can choose the soup base and the type of noodles I want!!

I’ve also tried most of their rolls, and they’re all delicious!! One thing I especially love about this place is that they actually know how to prepare Ikura. It doesn’t smell fishy at all and tastes fantastic!

I will never betray this restaurant!!! ❤“

“If you’re a fan of authentic Japanese comfort food, Kajiken in Falls Church is a spot you absolutely shouldn’t miss.

We started the evening with Gyoza and Takoyaki, and they were the perfect way to begin the meal. The gyoza were nicely crisped on the outside with juicy, flavorful filling, while the takoyaki were warm, soft, and savory — a classic street-food favorite done right.

For my main dish, I ordered the Teriyaki Tori, and it truly stood out. The chicken had a wonderful aroma and a beautifully grilled texture with a slightly crispy bite on the outside while remaining juicy inside. You can really tell it was grilled with care and precision. The flavor was incredibly satisfying and unique — honestly, I’ve had chicken dishes in many places, but it’s hard to find one quite like this. Paired with the noodles, the combination was rich, comforting, and perfectly balanced.(And if you’re not a noodles fan, you can easily ask to swap the noodles for rice.)

My husband ordered the Sukiyaki, which was warm, savory, and deeply comforting — the kind of dish that makes a dinner feel complete.

To end the evening, we treated ourselves to dessert: Matcha Crepe Cake with Matcha Ice Cream, and Taiyaki with Vanilla Ice Cream. As someone who truly loves matcha, I have to say the matcha flavor here is the real deal — smooth, fragrant, and beautifully balanced without being overly sweet. The crepe cake layers were delicate and light, and paired with the matcha ice cream it was absolutely delightful. The taiyaki with vanilla ice cream was also a perfect sweet finish.

From the appetizers to dessert, everything felt thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. A wonderful dining experience overall — we’ll definitely be coming back again.

“If you are looking for ramen in the DMV. This is the place to go. I’ve been going here for some years now and it’s far from me but worth the drive and closer than flying to Japan when I want some ramen. The staff you can tell eat, sleep and dream about their craft which you can taste in every bowl they make. I’ve had ramen in Japan and this is one of the closest places I’ve been to that remind me of Japan. So below is a collection of different special ramens that they do during certain times.“

“just want to tell you...the best in DMV 5☆“

“Now that the hype has somewhat died down, ramen enthusiasts like me can return and enjoy a bowl of ramen without the crazy wait times. Initially, the restaurant didn't handle crowd control well in their early months. There was no waitlist system, making it hard to justify waiting a couple of hours just for a bowl of ramen. But now that the curious crowd has dispersed, I've come back a few times to check the consistency of the flavor and to see if it might become my go-to spot for ramen. For this visit, we ordered the Classic Omurice Combo with curry sauce and the Spicy Kyushu Tonkotsu. The Omurice Combo really stood out. We chose curry sauce over demi glace, which was a great decision – the curry sauce seemed to have more depth and paired better with the dish, in our opinion. The egg was cooked to perfection, not too thick and not too runny. The Amazing Lemonade drink with cucumber added to the experience, being refreshing and elevating the taste to another level. The Spicy Kyushu Tonkotsu was also impressive. It featured thin slices of pork chashu, similar to my favorite ramen place in NYC. The smoky flavor of the chashu was excellent, adding aroma and depth to the dish. The slightly salty seaweed, along with the soft, sweet bamboo shoots, made for a good combination, enhancing the dish's flavor. The marinated egg, with its balanced taste and just-right cooking, was another highlight. Overall, Kyuramen delivered a memorable meal, with each element of the dishes complementing one another beautifully. The flavor has remained consistent during my recent visits, really standing out. This makes it not only the top spot on my ramen list in VA but also probably my second favorite spot overall in the East Coast. What sets Kyuramen apart is that it's the only ramen place in Northern Virginia that gives you the authentic feel of a ramen store. Sitting at the bar and watching the ramen-making process is a unique experience that adds to the charm. It’s definitely worth visiting for anyone who enjoys a mix of well-prepared flavors and dishes.“

“Let me tell you about this awesome ramen place! I placed an order for Miso Ramen through Uber Eats and when I got to the Grace st location I was told I put in the order for the wrong location. Well I just accepted that I made the mistake/would eat the cost but Hirro (I believe he’s the owner) remade my order without hesitation. I’d truly accepted that was not going to have my food (I’d been having a terrible day) but his kindness & customer made all the difference!! Also the ramen was delicious and this coming from someone who has had authentic ramen! Will be coming back and bringing friends :)“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Outstanding Experience at Honoo Ramen Bar! Honoo Ramen Bar is an absolute gem and a must-stop in West Falls Church! From the very first bite to the last, everything was exceptional. The Tako Wasabi was perfectly balanced—fresh, briny, and addictive. The Sake Steamed Clams were rich, aromatic, and bursting with flavor… pure comfort in a bowl. The wagyu and toro sushi were incredibly fresh, buttery, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious—clearly top-tier quality. And the shrimp dumplings? Steamed to absolute perfection: tender, flavorful, and expertly made. Do not leave without trying the Green Bliss Roll—it’s a standout and an instant favorite. On top of the amazing food, the service is attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming, making the entire experience even better. Honoo Ramen Bar delivers on every level—food, service, and vibe. If you’re anywhere near West Falls Church, this place is an absolute MUST STOP. I’ll be back again and again! 🍜✨“

“Fantastic ramen. The best I have had outside of Japan.“

“We absolutely loved Marumen. From just walking in, the staff was warm and welcoming. Food was absolutely delicious and especially at such a great price. Portions are huge. We couldn’t finish it so we got another meal out of it. We will definitely be coming back!“

“excellent ramen and customer service. I am beyond impressed!!! Great job!!!!“

“This is not my first time dining at this restaurant, and the food has always been delicious. But today’s visit was truly something special, all thanks to our waiter, Alex.

The way he treated me, my wife, and especially my child was genuinely heartwarming. He was so kind, friendly, attentive, and sincere. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. His service made us feel truly welcomed, not just like another table of customers.

The food was great as always, but Alex’s outstanding service made this visit unforgettable. I rarely take the time to write reviews, but I felt that his kindness and professionalism deserved to be recognized. It’s not every day you meet someone who takes so much pride in making people feel special.

Keep up the great work, Alex! You truly made our family’s dining experience amazing“

“It took me years to find a good ramen and sushi place, this place is the best! The owner is so sweet and welcoming, can’t find customer service like what she give anymore. My husband and I make it a point to god every month or two, you always get quality. As being spoiled by NY and NJ for several years we’re picky but this is our spot.“

“Today I had a really satisfying meal at K-Street inside K Market.

The pork cutlet was very comforting and balanced — just a classic, reliable donkatsu flavor.
What impressed me the most was the tuna kimbap. The ratio of egg and carrot was excellent, and the flavor was clean, mild, and not salty or overpowering at all. It felt very different from the typical overly seasoned $9.99 kimbap.

Everything tasted fresh and well balanced.

I’d definitely recommend the donkatsu and kimbap at K-Street inside K Market if you are looking for a simple and satisfying Korean-style meal.“

“Best sushi in town. Don't waste your money anywhere else. Quality and price come together.“

“Phenomenal first time experience !
We started with drinks and they came out almost immediately. We were super delighted since today was a special day we wanted to cheer before our dinner . Hayden was so kind and guided us through the menu .Food didn’t take more than 9 minutes to come out . Many locals were at the restaurant and made the atmosphere feel good, didn’t feel overwhelming. Music was just loud enough to have a conversation.
Hibachi combo + Sushi was amazing !
Definitely coming back
Thank you Hayden 😄“

“Legit Japanese food. I’ve visited 6 cities in Japan and this is exactly the type of food I’ve had there. 🍱 🍜 🍣“

“I ordered the Pho for take out and it was done pretty quickly. It took about 15 minutes. When. I went to pick up the person there made sure to verify my name. The food itself was good. It was not how I expected it to be but was good nonetheless. The protein in it was cooked pretty nicely and tender. The herbs had some brown spots but we're still edible. I definitely would order here again to try another soup.“

“I think I’ve found Alexandria’s best-kept secret. TomRamen is a true hidden gem that punches well above its weight class! I ordered online, and the process was incredibly quick and easy. One thing I really appreciated was that I wasn't overcharged for ordering through their site—it’s refreshing to see a local spot keep their prices fair for online customers.

The food was remarkably fresh, but the real standout was the flavor. It is authentic, rich, and absolutely delicious; you can tell they don't cut corners here. To top it off, the customer service was amazing—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. If you’re in Alexandria and looking for top-tier ramen, look no further. This place is a 10/10“

“amazing food and service at the urbana, MD location“

“it was great especially the music, if like Anime.“

“I had Jjajangmyeon and Tangsuyuk. It was reasonable price and both were delicious. I had low expectations since the most of Korean Chinese food in America was not good. But this one was not bad and good price. I would come back again. Hope more people come.“

“Good food, friendly servers.“

“Enjoyed delicious sushi and curry coconut udon! The service was great and the atmosphere perfect!“

“Best daily spot in the foggy bottom area. I’ve been a student here at GW and now in my senior year I’ve realized this place is a part of my daily life. The staff is more than welcoming and serve me and multiple friends with love and care. There’s a reason we are here 3x a week and the food definitely is a huge role in that too.

Chicken Katsudon Boxed Entree is my go to!

P.s. regarding the racism part, my group and I are from all walks of life and I don’t say that lightly. We have never personally ever had any form of racism in our experience. Regardless on our skin color, facial hair or physical appearance at all.“
