We had the best time at KooKoo DC last night. They accommodated a table of 14 for my spouse's birthday and never let us feel like an imposition. The food was so fresh, authentic, and reasonably priced - I did a double take when we got the bill. I even felt like we went all-out with apps, drinks, and desserts!
The owner was also so kind - we just felt so cared for the whole time and can't wait to visit again.
Great food, great atmosphere, friendly staff. Definitely will be a neighborhood gem
