Fodor's Expert Review Chaplin's

Inspired by the 1930s star Charlie Chaplin, this is the first ramen house–cocktail bar in Shaw. Burmese chef Myo Htun transports you with his take on traditional gyoza (wonton wrappers stuffed with pork and cabbage), shumai (small stuffed dumplings), and any number of ramen combinations, while Ari and Micah Wilder offer carefully curated cocktails. Enjoy the film posters and decor as you slosh yourself with ramen, or grab a drink at the Opium Den bar upstairs. From weekend brunch to the late-night Encore menu, there is always an opportunity to try something new. The Wilder brothers have created fan favorites that incorporate a variety of liquors, homemade mixers, and fresh fruit. Be sure to check out Chaplin’s happy hour, one of the best in the neighborhood, with half off all Drafty Spirits cocktails, draft beers, and by-the-glass wine until 7 pm on weeknights.
