I’ve dined here a couple times now. The music and the employees’ personalities bring a lively and welcoming atmosphere. Food comes out hot and the wontons are sooo good. Cocktails are really delicious too, I def recommend the penicillin. Manager was sweet for checking in on us and even offered popcorn while we waited for our food.

Great food, great atmosphere. The music is such a vibe. Staff is super friendly including the GM who took the time to visit our table and talk about the restaurant and DC overall. 10/10 will come back.

Very tasty experience! Came with a group of about 8, and we were well accommodated. The vibe is super cute and quirky with lots of Charlie Chaplin references. They have happy hour for drinks for those interested. I got the Chaplin Ramen which was so good— you could taste a nice touch a sesame and the noodles were very tender. Would definitely come back!

I Love the Chaplin A.S.S ramen. It’s spicy yet creamy due to the coconut milk and the noodles are some of the best I’ve ever had!

Came with some friends for Friday night dinner. The drinks were great! Our server was attentive and looked after us the whole night, however we can’t say the same for the manager who at first we thought was just a very drunk customer. He appeared to be highly intoxicated and was not acting professionally. Would come again, but the atmosphere was not it.

I knew I found “the spot” when it's 5:00 and there is only bar sitting available. I went with the bartenders passionate recommendation wontons and the Chaplin A.S.S. Ramen - spicy and delicious! The vibe, music, food, drinks, and friendly locals made my night.

I just ordered the PAYDAY beef option from their menu for $17.75 plus tax. Order came with perfect presentation and food the tastes great! Why only two stars? Because the order only came with FOUR SMALL DUMPLINGS! Possibly the worst deal I have ever gotten at a restaurant in my LIFE. The menu did not disclose how many dumplings I would get, so I foolishly assumed that I would receive enough food to fill a toddler at the very least. It’s not like I ordered from the appetizer menu. Won’t make that mistake again.Edit: I just finished my meal and I can confidently say that I am not full at all. I only weigh 115 lbs and don’t eat much, so it wouldn’t have been hard to fill me. Yet here we are.Kid-friendliness: Portions are perfect for small children and newborn babies ?

Outstanding food, outstanding customer service, outstanding ambiance, and all-around outstanding!!! The pork ribs were the best appetizer. Delicious and tender with enormous flavor. The Chaplin A.S.S. was really good and spicy. Really good portion sizes and lots of flavor. Our cocktails were on point. It definitely was a great way to celebrate a birthday. Thank you to the staff for being attentive and providing superb customer service! I highly recommend making reservations.

We stopped in for ramen after a show late on a Saturday. We were able to squeeze in at the bar. Everything was so good and the drinks were well made. If you're hoping for a table, I'd recommend a reservation.

The Ramen never disappoints!!! It's a little pricey for Ramen but it's worth it. The service could use some help because they're short staffed.

Went here during happy hour with the kids on a Sunday. Found the service to be friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Drinks were stiff and delicious (half price during daily happy hour 4-7). Food was delicious, broth for ramen was complex and hearty. Food came out quickly and was exactly as ordered. Kids loved the menu and vibe. We're sat right in front, great place for a family to chill.Kid-friendliness: We went around 6 pm and it was a good vibe for 12/7 yo.
