Japomen Alexandria

I've been to a lot of Asian restaurants in search of Japanese food in Northern VA. Japomen is possibly my favorite restaurant. Right now my favorites are the chicken katsu and the Japomen ramen. The ramen was the perfect amount of spice for me. 10/10 Would eat here again.

New favorite spot! There was no good quality food in Hilltop and finally this delicious and halal restaurant arrived! A sign of higher end restaurant - the menu was perfectly sized, not a million dishes, just the right amount all quality restaurants focus on a select number of dishes vs several pages. I was pleasantly surprised at how elevated the flavors, taste and presentation was for the sushi and chicken katsu. I recommend the white dragon roll and the chicken katsu dish to start. The chicken katsu dish came with a refreshing salad on the side that was very well paired with the richness from the crispy fried chicken. Service was FAST in the best way and very kind, attentive server refilling water and asking how the meal was. The ambiance is cozy yet modern and very clean, they saniti

From food to service, it's always a pleasant experience when I dine in with family, friends, and solo. All the items that I've tried so far are delicious- well balanced and flavorful! My husband loves all the ramen selection. My favorite is the creamy crab wonton and white dragon sushi. I really also appreciate that the chef takes the time to make regular spicy mayo when I request it. The customer service is always exceptional. It's very rare especially this day and age. The chef and staff (especially Milton) always takes the time to chat, check on the guests, and is very attentive. We always leave happy and full after dining at Japomen Alexandria.

This was our first time dining here, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, vibrant, and inviting. Our waiter, Milton, was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home and guiding us through the menu with great recommendations. The level of service truly elevated our evening. The food was outstanding starting with the Bao Buns simple but perfectly balanced followed by the Mexican Roll full of flavor and delicacy. the Wagyu Ramen was absolutely phenomenal (1000% recommend!) as well as the Pork-belly Ramen and full of fresh flavor and creativity followed by a Large Sake ( Cheers)! 🍻 Thank you, Milton, for making our first visit such a memorable experience. We’ll definitely be coming back again soon! -

A new spot in the Hilltop Village Center. Their ramen was delicious, closest brothy goodness we’ve had since our trip to Japan and a generous amount of toppings. Some locations in the area are super short on the toppings, not a problem here. The chicken katsu was nicely crisp. The sushi rolls were all perfectly yummy. The service was quick and responsive, very courteous. We will definitely be back to try other items on the menu like the sushi tacos!
