Shibuya Eatery

The ramen was so good!! Flavorful broth with premium ingredients - the pork was well prepared and not fatty. Love the Sapporo Ramen. I also got kids size portions for my kids and they loved the shio broth - light broth with amazing flavor. Huge portions! Will definitely be returning in this cold weather.

Shibuya Eatery is a great new ramen place. I had the build your own ramen with a shoyu base and pork belly. There are a ton of options and it is also vegan friendly, my friend was very happy with her bowl. The bowl I had was very affordable for the portion I had. It was a good amount of food and I leftovers after. The pork was freshly cooked and didn’t have that freezer taste that a lot of chain ramen places have. The dining room was very clean and the employees were friendly and knowledgeable. The owner Deron was super friendly and frequently checked in on us to make sure we were enjoying the food. Shibuya Eatery is a welcome addition to the neighborhood and I truly hope people come out to support it! They also take In-Kind which is super convenient.

My new favorite place to get Ramen, Donburi and other treats. Great location in Friendship Heights with a friendly staff and a talented chef/owner who really cares about the quality of the food and drinks. I love popping in for lunch or dinner especially this time of year for a warm bowl of ramen. Run don't walk here to support this excellent small business!

Very glad to have Shibuya in the neighborhood. Prices are incredibly reasonable considering the quality and quantity of the food on offer. While I can understand sticker shock at a glance, I usually get more than one portion's worth of food out of both the donburi (rice bowl) and ramen dishes. Smaller sizes are also an option for a lower price. The food is very flavorful, and you can tell the sourcing of the ingredients is solid because everything tastes fresh and the flavor profile of certain specific items (edamame, for example) taste just how you'd expect them to at a speciality Japanese restaurant. The in-house marinated grilled chicken (toriniku) is particularly delicious, and goes well in both a ramen broth or over rice. There's also a wide variety of flavors available via toppings and oil options, if you're looking for something specific like chili or black garlic to add into the mix. The staff is consistently helpful and courteous, and there're both indoor and outdoor seating options. Definitely recommend giving this place a try if you're looking for a nice warm soup for the winter months, or a rice bowl with a wide mix of potential flavors.

I have eaten at this new restaurant twice and can’t wait to go again. It is a wonderful addition to Friendship Heights. The ramen bowels are so savory and the build your own option allows for an amazing choice of vegetables, proteins, and sauce, and crunchy toppings. Everything seemed very fresh. The manager and all the kitchen staff are friendly and helpful and the prices are moderate. Try it!

I took my son out for lunch at Shibuya for the first time today and we’ll definitely be back! The food was amazing and the staff couldn’t possibly be more helpful. I had a Donburi bowl and it was perfect — the flavors and quality are top notch — it’s the kind food you’d expect to get at a fancy restaurant but served in a charming fast-casual format. My son had the ramen and he loved it. Everything was perfect and we’ll be back soon!

Best ramen around! Well-balanced broth, chewy noodles, fresh, high-quality ingredients with authentic Japanese accents. Nice char on the pork. If you’re in Northwest DC or Bethesda/Potomac, this is the place to go for a variety of ramen, donburi, and other tasty nibbles from a real restaurateur.

Sapporo Ramen was absolutely delicious. Great customer service. The flavors were deep and the portions were healthy.

I ordered Chicken Katsu. It was really good. I plan to return and try their other dishes. Very flavorful and fresh. Would totally recommend.

I got the sapporo ramen and it came out pretty quickly. The vibe of the restaurant is casual and the interior is clean with lots of seating! The ramen was delicious and the toppings were all so tasty ! I would definitely recommend and come back and would love to try the other dishes.

We had lunch last week. Service was great - order at the counter and they deliver to the table. I had the shoyu ramen with chicken (build your own) and you get to choose the toppings, and my friend had the spicy miso - her broth was much more flavorful. You add your own spice to make it as spicy as you want. I would try a different broth or a rice bowl next time. Definitely want to come back!

Authentic Japanese ramen/donkuri place Simple ambience. Great customer service. Highly recommend.

Shibuya Japanese Eatery is the place for dinner on a cold winter night! I ordered the $19 Build It: Ramen. There's a choice of 2 different noodles, 5 made from scratch broths, including a vegan miso, 5 proteins, multiple toppings of which one can choose 5, "crunchies", flavored oil, and even garnishes! The toppings are all so savory and fresh! The soup was amazing. This is NOT your typical fast casual. The staff and service are uniformly friendly and patient. Couldn't be happier that this eatery has joined our neighborhood.

Amazing food and kind,customer service oriented business!! Loved their ramen and drink assortment, and atmosphere of the restaurant! Highly recommend

I got Sapporo ramen and it far exceeded expectations. The broth had a nice depth and a hint of fermentation. The pork chasu was nicely charred and slightly thicker and more substantive than other places. And the mushrooms were nice. The service was good. The ambiance is okay. But the ramen was as good as I have had for a basic ramen. Didn't try any exotic ingredients.

I did not like my dish at all. I ordered the tofu rice bowl and the items did not go well together. The rice was clumpy, there were cold salad items in the bowl with hot items in the bowl and the vegetables didn't taste fresh and we're not well prepared. It felt very sloppy and rushed for a new establishment. I had a stomach ache after my meal. It's such a disappointment because we've been looking forward to the opening of this new eatery.

I visited the new Friendship Heights location. I had the curry katsu don with a chicken cutlet. It was delicious and the bowl was a generous amount of food. Staff were all nice. I plan to go back!

I asked for a child's meal (rice bowl) and was told that I had to be under 10 to purchase one. This was my first and very last visit, and told the server so. I drove to McDonald's and purchased a Happy Meal. SInce this is a new business, the operators should be formulating relationships to build a strong customer base in the neighborhood. There are always other restaurants to visit. Child size meals and child size drinks are the norm for people who watch their portions. Lesson Learned.
