Behrad EatsJuly 7, 2015The Stamina Spicy Ramen will be the highlight of your excellent meal here. This fiery ramen is topped with sliced pork, scallion, garlic, ginger, and a poached egg in a delicious miso broth.

Cristina HartNovember 29, 2015We got the Vagabond and The Cure. Delicious. The cure is more of a sweet drink but delicious either way. Good amt also and we sat outside since it was a comfy night out
Sandra RubinchikMay 2, 2016The stamina ramen is just spicy for the sake of spice with no deeper flavors. Stick to another ramen and don't miss the dumplings.
- Behrad EatsJuly 7, 2015You must start your meal with the delicious buns. Japanese braised pork, cucumbers, carrots, lettuce, & spicy teriyaki sauce on a bao bun.
Bitches Who BrunchMarch 23, 2016Chaplin has a gorgeous patio and awesome happy hour deals. The draft cocktails, beer, and wine by the glass are all half-priced. from 5-7, Mon-Thurs. On Fri-Sun, the happy hour is from 4-7. Read more- Bitches Who BrunchSeptember 28, 2015The Bitches say: B+. Chaplin’s is a really cool spot—definitely great for cocktails or dinner. Moreover, we like the idea of having mimosas with Asian food at any hour of the day. Read more
- Rachel WongAugust 8, 2014Overall not my favorite ramen in DC but was happy with the service. The ramen eggs were just poached and very yolky. Got the duck ramen; not bad. Pork belly was delish. No corn or or sprouts.
Eric EmanuelsonMarch 16, 2017Hip spot that's a little loud but fun vibe. Lazaretto was great, as were the dumplings, pork buns, chicken Katszu and ramen. Only thing we didn't like was "the cure."- Spoon UniversityOctober 18, 2016The house namesake Chaplin ramen, the super garlicky stamina spicy ramen and the Chaplin A.S.S. spicy sour are all great. Your belly is guaranteed to be fully satisfied no matter which you choose. Read more
Paul CavazosMay 13, 2016Not the best ramen in DC,but food is still great. This place has a ton of charm, an extensive cocktail list, and great selections of teas.
KelseyJanuary 8, 2015Very dark inside but the ramen was fantastic. Try the tan tan if you like spicy. If you're feeling adventurous do a dumpling shooter.
Claudia B.October 13, 2021The drinks were good and strong but mad better by 1/2 happy hour prices. The Ramen and pork belly and shumai were all so good.
Aleksandra ArcipowskaSeptember 30, 2017Miso Ramen is exceptional! I also had veggie wontons; tasty, fresh, njam njam! Friendly service and a long list of cocktails to chose! See you next time!
Andrea CarnesMarch 19, 2016What a weird concept for a restaurant! Who cares, though, the food is good and they have vegan options listed on their menu!
Ruth KJune 6, 2015One of the top ramen places in DC, minus the fuss of the Chaplin theme and over staffed subpar service. Servers often seem more interested in socializing w each other rather than servicing patrons.
Brooke HardingFebruary 26, 2018"The Kid" is my favorite cocktail. Jake is my favorite bartender. Go here. Drink all the drinks and tip your bartender!
I like the bar and the ramen is exceptional. However, Chaplin's is still searching for an identity. Prohibition bar? Ramen place? Sort of a hip-hop vibe? It's all three.
Miguel LopezJune 1, 2016They have some good cocktails on the menu. Not too stiff, but inventive without being hokey.
Mike MillerAugust 7, 2019Super friendly staff, wonderful Ramen and a whisky list longer than a filibuster. Go, you won't regret it.
- Anastasiia ....February 27, 2018Spicy ramen was my preference, couldn't finish it all, since it's too spicy, but would not change my mind for another one. Chaplin ramen for people who doesn't like spicy is good.
Dee Gee BeeJuly 10, 2016Chaplains Bowl w/ Butter Corn! Delicious. I may be adventurous next time and get the Chaplain ASS
- Claudia B.October 13, 2021atmosphere is cool, it's best in the summer on the patio. Try as much as you can.
The Chaplin A.S.S. and Spicy Miso are delicious. One of the best ramen spots in DC
Chicken A.S.S. was fantastic! Had a Lime Light to drink. Tart and tasty. Will be back.
Ramen so amazing. Go during the week when it's not overrun with the Virginia crowd.
- Lauren JensenMarch 28, 2016Jake the bartender is the best person ever. Really made this Milwaukee girl happy!
Daniel GraysonSeptember 24, 2016Skip the ramen and stick to other menu items. The broth lacks depth and the pork isn't so flavorful.
