Reviews for Sakuramen Ramen Bar in 2441 18th St NW, WA
Really solid ramen spot, I got the DC Miso Ramen with extra bamboo shoots and it really hit the spot but it was a bit light on... the portion but I guess Ramen isn?t a super filling food to begin with. The restaurant itself is a little confusing to find, butit?s located underground and was a little humid, but that?s probably due more to the weather outside than the A/C inside. Woulddefinitely come back! Read more
I come here whenever I can if I'm in DC. I believe the first time I was here was 6 or 7 years ago. To this day this is my... favorite ramen place anywhere. The food: 1. Bulgogi Buns - These were so good I wish I was able to fit more in my stomach. 2.Shoki Bowl - This is excellent for any meat lover. The egg is flavored delicious too. 3. Tonkotsu Red - This ones the popularone and for good reason. It's full of flavor. If you don't know which one to get, get this one. Read more
Best ramen in town. The owner was very friendy and helped us decide what to get. We wanted to try them all and we had no... regrets. Jus a heads up, spicy is ranked 1 to 10(10 super spicy) ,a 5 is really spicy it would actually be a 7 or 8 in my book.But thats jus me. Loved all the food. Especially the kim chi which is the owners moms recipe???? Read more
My favorite ramen place in D.C. Raman is just perfect, and they are not shy with their portions. The appetizer buns are... perfectly cooked, it just melts in your mouth. The service is excellent. The chief came outside and greeted us. Read more
This place has great and flavorful ramen. We are visiting from Miami and found this place suggested on Google and Reddit. We... stopped in and tried the DC ramen (a plainer broth featuring cheese), the tonkotsu red (a creamier spicy broth featuringmushrooms, bamboo shoots and more) and the Shoki bowl (contains all the meats for a meat lover in one broth). My favorite wasthe Tonkotsu red, they offer levels 1 to 10 of spicy. I went with a 3 on the server's suggestion and enjoyed the flavor and heatbalance. We also had the gyoza, and pork belly buns. The Gyoza were stuffed and delicious while the pork belly buns were tenderbut could have used a sauce or more flavor. They also offer a whole host of things to add to the ramen you select in case itisn't already in there- such as mushrooms, egg, corn and other add ons. Read more
I had this ramen 2 years ago and have been dreaming about the day that I could come back and have it again! The day is finally... here. The noodles hear have an amazing bite, the broth here have a lot of body and the overall dish is actually spicy (not ytperson spicy) overall would freaky recommend the place, 5 stars! Read more
The service here is amazing! They are quite accommodating to the customers. The ramen was delicious! Four stars: The mushrooms... tasted as though marinated in soy sauce and placed on the buns? I expected a more flavored dish rather than just theoverwhelming soy sauce taste. Read more
Delicious ramen with about 15 options including Korean style, vegetarian, chicken, beef and classical pork options. They ask... what spice level you want from 1 to 10 and as a person used to a lot of spice, I would 8 is pretty spicy for me. Definitelyrecommend. Service is reasonably quick but it is a popular place, so you might have to wait a bit to get a seat, especially ifit is more than 2 people. Read more
