Customize noodle bowls, try Korean bulgogi or spicy red tonkotsu
"This basement restaurant in Adams Morgan has become a staple known for melding different styles of ramen. Sakuramen has a whopping 12 ramen bowl options, including a vegetable-broth variety, a Korean bowl with bulgogi, and a spicy red tonkotsu — and optional toppings like bacon, kimchi, and cheese. There’s even a gluten-free version." - Eater Staff
"A ramen stall newly opened in the food hall, offering noodle-based, quick-service dishes." - Beth McKibben
"Eaton hotel’s resident restaurant spikes tea time by combining Hendricks Orbium gin, sake, sakura (cherry blossom), and ginger tea. Chef Tim Ma’s menu is also getting in the spring spirit via Madai sea bream crudo with cherry blossom shoyu. Eaton’s two other bars are also ringing in their first cherry blossom season with a Greenhat Gin, sake, cucumber, and lime cocktail at rooftop bar Wild Days and a Civic Vodka and matcha-filled “Wabi Sabi” at the Allegory speakeasy (all $14 each)." - Tierney Plumb

"Sometimes all you really want is a delicious meal in a comfortable setting. No fuss, no hipper-than-thou patrons, just good food. Sakuramen, in the basement of a row house in Adams Morgan, is on hand to soothe your soul with its wide variety of that steaming bowl of love—ramen. In fact, it's all about these toothsome noodles here. Goji ramen is a traditional shoyu ramen, while chosun shows off a Korean influence with Angus bulgogi and kimchi. Gyoza and steamed buns are available for good measure. Sakuramen is naturally the house special and the kitchen changes things up with a vegetable broth made from mushrooms and seaweed. Braised bamboo shoots, portobello caps and other vegetables bob amid the curly noodles for a perfectly satisfying meal." - The MICHELIN Guide
