"A favorite for ramen, Shaw residents know this place stays open until 1:45 a.m. on weekdays and 2:45 a.m. weekends. The kitchen wraps up earlier but stays open as late as midnight Thursday-Saturday. The cream cheese-stuffed wontons hit during a late night, too." - Missy Frederick
"This ramen bar with a 1930s vibe has an option for gluten-free noodles and sources pork from Catoctin Mountain Farm in Maryland. The patio here is packed with outdoor diners, even in the winter." - Missy Frederick, Eater Staff
"Shaw’s popular cocktail bar introduces diners to ramen noodles at an early age. Order a small kids’ bowl with wakame broth ($10) with the option to add toppings and sides of bite-sized gyoza. There’s also a big dog-friendly patio out front. Order online or dine in." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
"Shaw’s resident ramen and cocktail bar puts out water bowls for dogs on the patio, where their owners can sip from an array of beer, wine, and mocktails. The 65-seat patio at sushi sister spot Zeppelin’s up the street is also dog-friendly." - Tierney Plumb, Vinciane Ngomsi
"The $25 brunch menu or $40 dinner menu? The choice is yours." - MICHELIN Guide
