In Maryland, this place is as good as it gets for Korean Chinese food. You can’t compare it to best Korean Chinese food restaurants in Korea because it’s just not a fair comparison but what they do well here, they know how to do like the spicy noodle (짬뽕) and fried chicken (깐풍기). Their jjampong soup is delicious, with the right amount of spice and seafood flavor in it to give you that kick but also a taste of the ocean. Their fried chicken is most unique kkanpoongi I have ever had as it’s in like a lollipop shape like they advertise and the crispy, crunch, juiciness of the chicken is phenomenal. I would venture to say that’s their best and signature dish. The black bean noodle (짜장면) is average as the sauce is not rich enough. The noodles are handmade which is a nice touch as well and you can see the noodle chef working behind the tinted glass. Overall ambience has really improved after they remodeled and servers are friendly and attentive. It’s just a proper well run neighborhood restaurant and nobody comes close to this in Maryland.

Absolutely love this place. When I lived in Silver Spring I would order online from them, especially the lollipop wings! Once I moved to Laurel they stopped popping up on my food order apps. I am hoping they can add my location to their delivery areas especially since I am much closer now than before. All in all, highly recommend this restaurant! I haven’t had everything on the menu but I have had most and I can say that it’s all good! You can taste the care and attention in each plate. And did I mention their noodles are freshly hand made!

This spot is totally worth the hype and I can see why it’s a local gem. I ordered the fried beef in garlic sauce and the noodles in black bean sauce. The noodles tasted so fresh (to be expected when you can see and hear the noodles being handmade in the kitchen!), and the portions are generous. I’ll definitely be coming back to have a sit down meal rather than takeout next time.

Great place! The parking lot seems to always be packed and the few times that I have gone to Da Rae Won there has been a big line which speaks for how awesome this place is.Still coming here! Food is so great and renovations are amazing.

Had a great time eating Korean food here, atmosphere was great, place was very clean, bathroom was nice, a lot of space~Food was good, but my girl’s noodles were still a part raw, but taste wise, everything was good.
The staff is very friendly and quick. The food is incredible.

I posted today and had a meal with the staff. The japchae rice was so bad that I threw it away after eating it. This is my first time seeing dried japchae.There was a mountain of rice, and the amount of japchae was as big as a fist, and it was okay if it tasted good, but it wasn't tasty. I was very angry. The food used to be quite tasty, but the taste has changed a lot recently. Everyone else is saying the same thing.Have the kitchen people changed?Or has the owner changed?Anyway, the food in general became unappetizing...
