I’ve eaten meat longer than I haven’t. I’ve also cooked professionally for decades. Trust me when I say, Alkaline’s vegetarian ramen is some of the best I’ve ever had PERIOD. The broth is straight up magical!
Awesome place, great food
My brother and I frequent this place at least once a week for lunch. The Ramen is to die for and the Lumpia is amazing!!! One of my favorite places in Norfolk, VA to eat!

Alkaline is a fusion Japanese restaurant offering a unique dining experience. The restaurant provides excellent service, with staff members being patient and friendly, offering on-point suggestions. The food is a highlight, featuring delicious ramen that offers unique spins on traditional flavors, including the vegetarian ramen and rich umami-packed broths like the Spicy Red Curry Ramen and Tonkotsu Ramen. The inside has a cool vibe, with neon lights, anime-inspired artwork, and even anime playing in the front, creating a welcoming atmosphere especially appealing to manga fans. Guests often enjoy dishes like fried Brussels sprouts, which are crispy and flavorful, and pork belly. The restaurant’s desserts include the Miso Butter Cake, a warm, buttery treat that melts in the mouth. Despite some reviews mentioning a slight wait to be seated, the staff work hard to ensure a good experience. Overall, Alkaline is a highly recommended spot, with a solid 4.75 out of 5 rating, and many customers look forward to returning to try more of the menu.
