Handmade noodles, dumplings, and spicy Szechuan chicken entrées
"For solo diners, Reren is a quiet lunchtime pick with impeccable service, affordable options, and really great food. When you walk into the restaurant, there’s a mural of mummified noodles boiling in a pot of soup that you kind of just have to see it to believe. Stare at it mindlessly as you eat your order of beef and broccoli with headphones on—or read a book, as is customary for most of the diners inside. Service is quick and the staff is willing to walk you through the menu. If you’re down to switch up your normal order (we’re looking at you, General Tso soldiers), we recommend the Crazy Fish: a lightly battered flounder tossed in a bed of garlic and freshly chopped onions. It’s aromatic, spicy and an all around great meal." - omnia saed

"Spicy wontons and handmade pork dumplings are popular at this Chinese-style ramen bar. So are the soup dumplings, which are tough to find in D.C. proper." - Aparna Krishnamoorthy
