It was my first time visiting this little Korean restaurant and left very happy! Everything was sooo good. We got the seafood pancake, bim bim bop (not pictured) and Jaeng Ban Ja Jang Myun.
The food was excellent and the service friendly and quick. We are no experts on Korean food, but we thoroughly enjoyed our Jaeng Ban aka Jang Myun, Spicy Pork Bulgogi, and fried dumplings. The servings were so large that we took fully three additional meals’ worth home with us. The proprietress was incredibly sweet and patient as we asked about the menu.
Completely satisfied, so happy we came to try Wang Jja Jang for our first time. We’ll be back. Highly recommend!

Just stumbled on this place for lunch. I had the seafood with noodles, which was outstanding. I’ll certainly add this place to my regular rotation.

Wang Jja Jang is a casual Korean-style Chinese restaurant located on E Gude Drive in Rockville, MD.

The food is generally tasty, well-portioned, and reasonably priced, making it a favorite local spot for comfort food. Many visitors enjoy the seafood pajeon and kanpoongi, though some note that the kanpoongi can be a bit extra greasy. The seafood pancake is praised for its good fry and generous seafood portion, though some find the octopus chewy. The flavors are often described as homey and delicious, with a few mentioning that the dishes taste just average or standard. Staff are friendly, and the overall experience is warm and inviting, especially suitable for solo diners or those seeking a quiet, no-frills meal.
