Reren Lamen & Bar

Food was absolutely delicious. Went for dinner yesterday and ended up going back for lunch the next day. The sauce for the spicy wonton was to die for. Very unique flavors and ordered multiple different dishes to try. Staff was friendly and service was fast. Would definitely go back again next time we visit DC. Everyone worked together on a busy night.

Incredible soup noodle.

It was a pleasant discovery. After a long and wet trek from the 'U Street Capsule Hostel' near Pleasant Plains to Downtown to Chinatown my legs were near dead. I had to get meal, fast, and a really good one.

Reren exceeded expectations, the service was prompt and attentive, I got a tall glass of cold water the moment I sat down, thanks waitress, I needed that drink!

I ordered their signature dish: 'Reren Signature Lamen'.

Big portion of noodles to slurp to, delicious ans hearty brother with just the right amount of salt, condiments such as the half boiled Chinese Tea Egg, finely chopped kale, beans pouts, dried sea cucumber are an excellent addition to add texture and flavour.

The star of this dish was the Pork Belly, succulent, melt-in-your-mouth stuff. Very tasty, a good hit of protein that was much needed after a tiring trek to the city.

The shallots for garnish brought everything together for a superb presentation finish.

Mad props to Reren chefs and wait staff - highly recommended.

What a place!
If you are wondering around Chinatown, this is your place! The homemade dumplings (pork) are delicious, and the ramen (signature) is also very good. On top of that, the marinated pork belly is insanely good, a must try! Good service and not very expensive, very good place overall!

For a party of 10 with no reservations we were greeted and seated in 8 minutes! To me, that's terrific! All the staff wore a mask. They had us seated on the second floor. Thankfully, there was a restroom on the second floor. We were hungry and thankful that it did not take the restaurant staff too long to prepare the food for all ten of us. The food portion was a good serving size, it tastes good, and the prices were fair. I didn't think the lamen/ramen was anything excellent tasting, it was good. I personally like my noodles al dente; the noodles were not al dente but it could be because the ramen noodles are in hot broth. Overall restaurant was clean and inviting.

Everything was really good and you can tell the noodles are made in house. The Grandmas pancakes were excellent and the Dan Dan noodles were particularly enjoyable.

The location is convenient from the conference center, and somewhat small. However, the service is friendly, quick, and excellent. I will have to revisit this location to try the Ramen sometime.
