• Ramen • Shaw

Booked 31 times today

Haikan is our second Sapporo Ramen shop in DC after Daikaya. Haikan means, “pipe works” in Japanese, an ode to Atlantic Plumbing Building where we are located. At Haikan, we focused on creating the taste of ramen from the showa period, the golden age of ramen in Japan. There are over 1000 ramen shops in the city of Sapporo alone, and we are excited to share a completely new line-up of traditional Sapporo style ramen in DC. In addition to ramen, we are serving a playful selection of Japanese-inspired kozara (small plates) to share, or to start with, or to make a whole meal of by picking a few of them. Haikan's bar serves a collection of Japanese-inspired cocktails, and a concentrated selection of Japanese sake, shochu, beer, whisky, and more.

Really cool and fancy Latin American vegan experience. Before the first course, they brought out a candy served on top of an incense pot that I found very relaxing. All the courses were delicious, unique and left me feeling very curious to learn more. The staff was also incredibly friendly; our server checked in periodically and made sure we were enjoying our meal. The whole experience was worth it, and would highly recommend this place!
