I stumbled on this spot while working in the area and have been there 5 times this past year for lunch so this review is long overdue. Located in the busy Clarendon area of downtown Arlington this spot is quaint, cute and gets quite busy.
I started with the Chilli Hoisin Duck Bao Bun which was hot, fluffy and savory. Their motto is " from bowl to soul" and this is hands down the BEST Ramen I've ever had. The Spicy Pork Szechuan ramen had so much flavor and definitely warmed my soul! The Spicy chicken broth along with the szechuan ground pork makes the dish, and the broth was rich & savory. The pork flavor was strong and the teriyaki took it up a notch. Mmmm mmm good. The ramen is very hearty but you can't stop eating it. Oh yeah the Banana Katsu with salted caramel ice cream is a great dessert to close out this meal. One of these days I will definitely try another dish but for now if it ain't broke I don't plan on fixing it!

Dinner was very good! Recommend the cod soba and duck ramen, as well as their assortment of fruit juices. Good warm food especially on a cold day.

I’ve been to Wagamama a couple of times now & wanted to give it a fair shot before writing this review. The drinks are very good - their cocktails and fresh juices are definitely worth trying. I’d say that the most accurate way to describe the food is that it tastes like chain restaurant Asian food. Nothing I’ve tried has ever blown me away and everything is about 25-50% more expensive than it should be. The service also leaves a bit to be desired and the staff is by no means overly friendly in my experiences. Good place to go grab a drink but you have far better options in Arlington for dinner.

I’ve seen these restaurants all over the UK. Had to try their Asian fusion style cuisine. I had the steak bulgogi with udon noodles. Couldn’t go wrong with this order. The only surprise is that it had cilantro to the side. Which I really don’t like. Other than that, it tasted good and service was fine.

So good! From the food to the service just a really nice meal.
Warning ⚠️ though, for some I can see some of the items being a bit too spicy.
The crispy pork Baos were so good and the Salmon with noodles 🍜 very tasty.
Great place for small dishes and drinks 🍸 atmosphere is really nice too. We'll have to try the other places when we can, definitely coming back. 😆
