Overall I really liked this place! The atmosphere is nice and the ramen was actually pretty good compared to other ramen spots in the area. I like that they just give you a menu and you can order from a tablet. The restaurant was very clean and the servers promptly took away our plates when we’re were done.
However… the menu was small, so I usually assume that means what they do have should be really good right? While the ramen was pretty good, the gyoza and shrimp tempura were honestly bland. And the sauce they came with didn’t do much to help. And as others mentioned, this is a great place if you don’t want to be talked to. But considering I ordered a regular miso ramen and I got a spicy and then couldn’t even flag someone down much less get someone to understand my issue really irritated me.
There were plenty of wait staff just standing around and there was only three other groups besides us.
I will definitely go back at the end of the day! But I’m hoping management will see peoples reviews and maybe entice the staff to be a little more friendly.

quick service and decent food. no complains on any of the food. the ramen was good and not too salty like many other restaurants i’ve tried. the egg was still jammy and the pork was tender and not too fatty which is always a plus. the sushi was decent. it was fresh and standard but i think i would stick with the ramen at this place.
all orders were place on a screen right at the table.
not sure if it was just the season changing and they couldn’t determine whether or not to turn on heat or cooling but it was chilly in the restaurant

This is the prefect place for introverts. You’re given a menu when seated and you order on a tablet. The prices were reasonable about $18 for a ramen bowl, $8 for sushi and around $6 for milk tea. The food was very delicious. I recommend the spicy miso soup and to try the Philly sushi rolls. The staff were okay. However, the older gentleman was very kind and attentive. He made sure we were okay. I felt very welcomed and the food was amazing. Will come again.

I had an amazing experience at Araki Ramen! The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. The Spicy Miso Ramen was the star of the meal. It’s super rich, perfectly balanced, and just the right amount of heat without being overwhelming. The broth was deep and savory, the noodles had the perfect chewy texture, and the toppings tied everything together beautifully.
We also tried the gyoza dumplings, which were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside and easily some of the best I’ve had anywhere. Everything tasted fresh and made with care.
The staff were friendly and attentive, and the cozy atmosphere made it a great place to relax and enjoy a comforting bowl of ramen. I’ll definitely be coming back. I highly recommend Araki Ramen to anyone craving authentic, flavorful Japanese comfort food!

I hadn’t had ramen since 2022 and decided to stop in today to have their vegetarian ramen. It was truly so delicious, especially with the spicy miso add-in. It totally hit the spot for what I was craving. The restaurant itself is beautiful, and the avocado roll was delicious too. We also ordered the spicy chicken ramen and added the extra spicy miso to that too, and it was so yummy. I recommend stopping by to have a lovely bowl of ramen at Araki. This place is a local gem!

I’ll start with the positives: this is a beautiful restaurant with a great ordering system. They have an iPad where you can look at each menu item and customize to your hearts content and ask for the check. You don’t necessarily need to talk to the staff unless you’re getting seated. The food was also reasonably priced and came out very quickly. I think we only waited 5-10 minutes after we placed our order for our food to arrive.
I saw some reviews saying that the host was rude and that they couldn’t get booth seating, but we honestly had no issue with that. The staff were polite, answering our questions and clearing our table of finished plates promptly, and we got a booth seat.
Now for the negatives: The food itself was just okay— the ginger and wasabi served with the sushi was old and tasted off, and the rice was a little dry. Though my friend got a ramen (not pictured) and she said it was great. We also ordered a karaage, and it was cooked very well but lacked some seasoning.
One of the servers did hang around the area where everyone was sitting and lounged around with this really bored/sad look? And when they came to take plates there they just sounded exhausted. There was always this awkward atmosphere when the servers came around.
Overall we had a pretty good time here and we enjoyed our meals. I don’t know if I’d come back, though.

A Hidden Gem That Deserves to Be Famous!
Araki Ramen Japanese Restaurant is hands-down my favorite Japanese spot in Northern Virginia. The moment you step inside, you’re transported to a little slice of Tokyo. Between the glowing red lanterns, cherry blossom décor, and cozy izakaya ambiance, it’s absolutely stunning. You’ll want to take a photo before you even sit down!
Now the food — incredible. Their ramen is a warm, soul-hugging bowl of perfection — deeply flavorful broth, springy noodles, and tender slices of pork that melt in your mouth. But don’t stop there — the crab croquettes are golden and crisp on the outside with rich, creamy crab filling inside. Pure comfort food! And if you’re a fan of street food classics, the takoyaki is some of the best I’ve had — crispy on the outside, gooey inside, and topped with just the right touch of bonito flakes and sauce. Absolutely addicting.
They also have a great drink selection — I really appreciated the option to have a cold Orion beer, straight from Okinawa. It pairs perfectly with the izakaya-style dishes.
What really elevates Araki is the people. The owners and staff are truly wonderful — warm, attentive, and passionate about what they do. You can tell this is a labor of love, and they go out of their way to make sure every guest feels welcome.
Whether you’re coming for a casual dinner or looking to impress someone with a special night out, Araki delivers on all fronts: food, atmosphere, and service. I keep bringing friends here and every time, they leave impressed.
Highly recommend this local treasure. Araki is doing everything right!

Nice cozy spot, scenery was really nice and quiet when I stopped by. The food was good and service is quick. You order through a screen which is neat for introverts. The dumplings were fresh and had a crispy outside. I personally had the spicy miso ramen which was overall good but I wished they added 2 pieces of meat rather than just the one. Very flavorful exactly what you’d expect for this type of dish.

The Ramen restaurant boasts a pleasant ambiance, with a clean and tidy interior complemented by artificial cherry blossoms and various seating options. The service was commendable, with an efficient ordering system via tablets at each table and prompt food delivery. The owner even took the time to check in and see if I needed anything else. Given these positive aspects, my expectations were relatively high.
However, the dishes I ordered did not fully meet those expectations. The almond milk tea was refreshing, and I appreciated the option to customize the level of sweetness; however, I noticed that a significant portion was ice. The classic tonkatsu ramen was notably salty, which made it difficult for me to enjoy the broth despite the noodles being nicely prepared and not fried. The takoyaki was satisfactory but could benefit from having more tako(octopus) pieces in each ball.

Service was great but their spicy miso ramen was not too impressive. Broth was spot on but the ramen noodle texture is not what you get at an authentic Japanese ramen place. Plus they only give you one piece of chashu pork which I think is unacceptable especially when they charge you $16 for the ramen. Edamame was pretty decent, just a bit too much salt.
