“this was literally the PERFECT sunday evening meal….highlights for me were the tteokbokki, spicy pork belly, and kimchi 🙂‍↕🙂‍↕ our server was also absolutely amazing & our food always came out relatively quickly after ordering! we got the AYCE A menu & it was a very great deal for the amount of food we ate :-))“

“The best, most delicious, and healthiest food I had from takeout.From the Bulgogi to the Fluffy White Rice to the Glass Noodles and Sesame Oil with Crushed Garlic. I love it down to the Scallions lol. And if you call the cook, he will prepare it just the way you like it andanswer any andall questions that you may have. I'm a regular customer here. They definitely got Seoul!!!“

“Zane was my waiter and he provided the most kind and patient service. I’ve ever had here and I come here often.“

“Love this spot!! My wife took me here for my birthday, and I'll be going back many times for sure. The service is incredible (thank you, Louise), the drinks and food are excellent (we did the dinner prix-fixe and Ingle accommodated my wife, who's vegetarian), and the ambience is nice but not formal/stuffy. Even got to end the night with an amazing red bean bingsu!!“

“Great evening at Anju with work colleagues. The food was exceptional , full of flavor and beautifully done. As chefs ourselves, we were all impressed. Service was warm and smooth throughout. Thanks to Chef for coming by and explaining his dishes ., A great personal touch. Highly recommend.“

“The food is fantastic!!!!“

“Yes, the food is delicious but what makes this NoMa location is the attentive and caring customer service. I messed up an order for four by placing it for another location. SeoulSpice NoMa crew to the rescue. No questions asked. Same order ready for me in less than 3 minutes. Customer service of this caliber is rare these days. Bravo and thank you, SS NoMa!“

“I am sure Korean food is the best when tasted in Korea. That's why I'm not a big fan of Korean restaurants abroad. However this one, Rice Bar in DC satisfied me for real. 다만 제 느낌에 1회용 숫가락이 좀더 크면 좋겠고 젓가락에 일본어 적힌 점이 아쉽.. 그래도 또 들리고 싶네요.“

“Friends raved about this place. So, I picked up Bulgogi Bibimbap 😋 and I'm so happy I did!
It was Delish! I'm really surprised that this place wasn't crowded.
The place is simple and nice. There's limited seating inside but there is more seating outside. And the service is friendly. I was hungry but I'll try to remember to take a photo of the food next time. In the meantime, eat here. If you like Korean food, I think you'll ❤ it just as much as I did.“

“visited here from out of town and it was me and my friends’s first meal!! we ended up going again the second night because of how good it was. the owners are incredibly hospitable and lovely! they also really care about their food and how people receive it. i had the pork belly bibimbap the first night and the gochujang sauce was amazing! and the second night, i got the sushi combo :D AMAZING“

“Hi! I love the food, but I just had a TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE at Rosslyn. The person at the counter threw my food at me, was incredibly rude, and laughed at me while I was speaking with the manager. A total lack of respect. Me gusta mucho la comida , pero la atención de la sra de el mostrador fue realmente fatal , me tiró la comida , le pregunté el nombre de forma amable h me dijo que no tenía y después con actitud grosera mientras yo hablaba con el manager , esto daña la imagen de este lugar ! Es importante que ella reciba entrenamiento de servicio al cliente .“

“we love their jjajjangmyun and jjambbong! very delicious!“

“The food is good, but I’m gonna have to remove stars because of the customer service. 😕 When I first entered, I wasn’t greeted. The associate just stared at me, as if to say “I don’t have all day. Are you gonna order anything?” She had the most stony expression… It was only my second time here, so I was quite sure I had not had any negative encounters with anyone. I was trying to get suggestions and ask questions about certain things, but every time I asked a question about something, the server just dumped it in the bowl. He never answered the question. When I got to the cashier, I apologized, because I wondered if I had done something wrong. But he just referred to me as “diva,” and tried to assure me that nothing was wrong. I told him I didn’t appreciate being called a diva. I just don’t like being treated like I’m a problem when I haven’t done anything. I gave two stars for service, because my first experience was so amazing! I don’t know what happened.“

“We were in town too see the Cherry Blossoms. While looking for something quick to eat, we stumbled upon SeoulSpice. I have been craving my mother's cooking... You guys are the closest to her cooking that I teared up while eating.... All the way to the last bite. 😋 And then we went again the next night!“

“I Highly recommend this restaurant. I had Mother’s Day dinner here and it was AMAZING! The food was great and the customer service was Top tier. The manager Edin was attentive and friendly. My entire family enjoyed ourselves. I will definitely dine with those guys again in the future. Small parties and Large parties are Welcomed. 2 👍🏾 Up.“

“Great experience with Ahmed Ahdulkareem as our waiter! He was quick to change grills, offer refills and bring out anything we needed! 10/10! 💚💚💚“

“This Fried Chicken is unlike anything I have ever tasted. The boneless wings are SO PERFECT. They have a light and airy Ness to them and yet are ao wonderfully crispy. We always get the honey garlic boneless. They are truly amazing every time. I have never had anything like this, and will happily be coming here for years to come. Use scissors to cut up the chicken and get some rice and pickled radish to make it truly a taste perfection.“

“Great wings! We turned around after passing the location and ordered the soy garlic wings… they were amazing, fresh, and clearly made to order! Fries were good too, not greasy either. Price is in line with wing places nowadays. Will return!

No place for dine in, carry out only.“

“Authentic Korean-Chinese food with some of the best Jjajjangmyeon in the area! Enjoy a cozy atmosphere, only interrupted by the occasional sounds of noodles being made by hand in the back (pro tip: be mindful where you sit, if you either want to see the noodles or don't want to hear the noddles!), as well as fast service and reasonable prices. Da Rae Won is worth the trip!“

“Best chicken Katsu I have had since I left Hawaii. The owner was amazing last time We went which is why we went back. Well that, and the food is amazing. Also, I never ever right reviews that's how good it was.“

“Excellent food, superb service and great portions! Totally worth the money.“

“In DC for 6 days, if it weren’t for family gatherings that included tons of food, I Would Have EATEN HERE EVERYDAY! Seriously love, the Love! Bring some of this great food to Boston!😘“

“Delicious food, cozy place!!“

“One thing I love about mom and pop Korean places is that you often find them in the oddest, out-of-the-way locations. This is certainly true of Yett Gol, which is tucked away in the corner of a rather run down Glenmont strip mall.

Definitely not the kind of place you'd expect to find decent Korean grub. And yet, Yett Gol is exactly that. Quite decent. None of their dishes disappointed, the service was friendly and the atmosphere was cozy.“

“I love the food! It’s so good. I brought my daughter for the first time and she wants to come back this weekend!“

“Great Korean fried chicken and cheesesteaks“

“I am sure Korean food is the best when tasted in Korea. That's why I'm not a big fan of Korean restaurants abroad. However this one, Rice Bar in DC satisfied me for real. 다만 제 느낌에 1회용 숫가락이 좀더 크면 좋겠고 젓가락에 일본어 적힌 점이 아쉽.. 그래도 또 들리고 싶네요.“

“Nice atmosphere, food was delicious. I love Korean food and this is the place I usually come with my family. I recommended them highly.“

“Friendly decoration and fresh homemade food. Free public parking cross the street from the restaurant. Smiley owner!!“

“Ma and Eam are the best people u ever want to meet they showed nothing but respect and a lot of. Love in there food 5 stars sis“

“Must GO! MUST EAT! Sooo GOOD! Will NOT disappoint! YOU WILL GO BACK, AGAIN and again and again!“

“Ugh. I really wanted to like it, service is great! Good people very helpful. Just the food I dont know in my head and what others have hyped, i was hoping for more banging flavor.

Clean place

I order the hot cheetos kong dog whole beef 7/10 the breading and beef taste good the hot cheeto did not taste like it. Plus left a werird pink gum taste after

6 pc wings buffalo. 7/10 had better but cooked perfectly nice crunch

Fries normal style crinkle cut

Price is on the high end. TO ME it did not correlate to the meal but i understand its all freshly made from what i can tell“

“Duane provided excellent service from start to finish! He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. His bartending was top-notch, and the drinks were absolutely delicious, well-made, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. You could tell he took his time making sure every drink was just right. He was professional, welcoming, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely ask for Duane if you visit, you won’t be disappointed!“

“I eat at Iron Age every time I pass through DC. It is an awesome experience with great food. The price is also very good at $30 for 90 minutes. I just can't order the shrimp because it is whole shrimp with eyes and all.“

“What is it about astronaut-types who love sushi? This might be a generalization but Osaka is a NASA haunt. I’m pretty sure this sushi restaurant’s bread-and-butter is due in part to the fact they are literally across the street from NASA and know how to serve delicious sushi with decades of veteran expertise.

Osaka Japanese Restaurant offers tasty and reliable dishes. And has for many years. It does not have a fusion menu or flashy decor. It does has traditional Japanese fare that you will enjoy and likely come back for.

The sushi bar, itself, is small. I’ve sat at it a few times, over the years, and found it a friendly and comfortable place to dine alone. The service in the large dining area is usually austere and efficient. I’ve only ever seen one waiter work the entire restaurant at night and he does it well.

When we dined here, recently, I was in a Japanese comfort food mood. So, this review is devoid of any raw seafood reflections. There are many, many options outside of sushi to choose from at Osaka.

I was relieved to know that our dishes came with miso soup and a ginger dressing salad, as should be normal at full-service Japanese restaurants. The dressing was so good that I sipped most all it after the salad was gone. I lost all of my dignity and sipped it like soup.

I ordered a Bento Box. The Bento Boxes are impressive, here, because of their variety and portion size. We enjoyed Bento Box “B,” with salmon teriyaki, 6 California rolls, shrimp and vegetable tempura, gyoza dumplings and white rice.

I wouldn’t dare ask for a California roll substitution because I’m guessing everyone else does and classically Bento Boxes are not ‘make your own’. But I abhor the painted-red faux crabmeat in California rolls which one finds at many restaurants and markets. Not these rolls, at Osaka, however! I actually more-than-liked their California rolls and Ican honestly say I do not usually eat them without removing the meat. Not here. This is really saying a lot about their food quality, here. I didn’t ask but I think they actually use real crab meat instead of the pollock or otherwise fish blend that 95% of places use in California rolls. When you’re in the state of Maryland eating California rolls, faux crab meat is heresy.

The salmon teriyaki in the Bento Box B was a tastey surprise! It was super-fresh, perfectly seared and not overcooked. The shrimp tempura were average/fine. The vegetable tempura was even better: asparagus, eggplant and a yam. I think the fried coating could have been lighter and airier but it was not too thick.

The gyoza dumplings were a definite stand-out: were these homemade?! They must have been because they were expertly seasoned, delightfully herby and aromatic. Must get more gyoza!

Entree #2 was pork katsu called Ton Katsu. The pork was good but I much prefer their chicken katsu. The person I was sharing these dishes with preferred pork. It was good and well-seasoned. The ton katsu sauce was complex and the umami was definitely there. It was thick, smoky and dark. Not at all sweet. We also requested the sweeter teriyaki sauce on the side and I ended up using equal parts of each.

The second standout at Osaka was the cabbage side dish which came with the pork ton katsu entree. This was a lovely and unique presentation of thinly-sliced cabbage along with other flavors. I don’t know if they also offer this as an appetizer but I really liked it. I also added some ginger dressing to it and tasted even better.

All in all Osaka Japanese Restaurant in Greenbelt is maybe overlooked and should never be because their sushi and entrees are at least reliably classic and good, if not delicious and - at times - even surprising.“

“Yum! Good quick breakfast and not expensive. Huge menu, too.“

“This was my first time at this place and it was so much FUN.“

“Great little place! First time here, so did not try their corn dogs. But, wow, probably the best chicken tenders I've ever had! Amazing soft, juicy, intensely flavorful. They had like 5 or 6 dipping sauces, and I got hot so my mouth is now completely on fire. Next time will likely choose medium.“

“I am sure Korean food is the best when tasted in Korea. That's why I'm not a big fan of Korean restaurants abroad. However this one, Rice Bar in DC satisfied me for real. 다만 제 느낌에 1회용 숫가락이 좀더 크면 좋겠고 젓가락에 일본어 적힌 점이 아쉽.. 그래도 또 들리고 싶네요.“

“I ordered Mr Yangs Vegan on uber eats and it got prepped and delivered to me fast, but the flavor of the items wasn't that great and seemed to what anyone could make at home. I ordered the Shrimp and fries, Beef and broccoli, Crab Rangoons and the Garlic knots and out of those, the garlic knots tasted the best.“

“The Chicken wings here at bbq Chicken and so scrumptious. They're consistently mouth watering and finger licking special. In particular is this the so with the honey garlic. The flavors and the cook are perfectly balanced. They're maybe a dollar more than say Wingstop, but oh man it's worth it and more. Can't go wrong with bbq Chicken.“

“Great breakfast and Best service ever!“

“Happened to see it as we were walking by. They serve delicious Korean food here. The veggies in the bibimbop was fresh and the spicy pork was well seasoned. The eating area could use a little sprucing up but it’s fun to see all the Korean and non Korean snacks they sell. It’s a no touch ordering system which is kind of cool. They have street toast and dukboki too. I would recommend a try!“

“I frequent the Navy Yard location 2x out of my 3 day work week and the bartender/server Evan is by himself 9/10 times. He does a phenomenal job and it’s very attentive. The food it’s always fresh and hot to order. Honestly, I have no complaints“

“Good portion sizes and prepared fresh at your table. Music videos were cool and gave insight into the music culture in Korea. The bench seats are HARD! And the automatic tip added to my bill as usual sets me off. Limited dessert menu. I will go back to try the galbi next.“
