So glad I finally went

I have been meaning to go here for years. I used to live in Japan (not a vegetarian at the time) so anywhere with veg ramen gets my attention, but it took me ages to get to Chaplin's. Thank goodness I did. I got the veggie shio ramen and added fried tofu.

The wakame based broth was excellent. The noodles were just the right texture. And I don't know what they did to the tofu but can they teach me? Because wow it was good.

I ate at the bar and the bartender, Andrew, was really great, he made me feel at home even though he was super busy. I will absolutely be back to try their other veg options and I just might have a new favorite ramen in the DMV.

Pros: The fried tofu was perfect, The bartender was super friendly, Happy hour pricing is great

Ok, Nothing Special

They have a few ramen options. Be sure to specify vegan as some of the options are vegetarian and have to be modified. Their ramen is fine, but nothing special. The service is usually slow and unfriendly
