About Mad for Grill

Mad for Grill, located in Annandale, VA, offers a satisfying Korean BBQ experience that keeps diners coming back. Previously found where Nakwon used to be, the restaurant has seen an improvement in service since opening, and the food is generally well-enjoyed by visitors. Standout dishes include the "조기구이정식" (Grilled Yellow Croaker Set), yangnyum kalbi, thick pork belly, kimchi jigae, and maewoontang. The grilled yellow croaker is praised for being perfectly grilled with deep, rich flavors. The side dishes (banchan) serve as delightful little appetizers, with the kimchi being noted as the best ever had—fresh, flavorful, and incredibly special. Many reviews highlight the authentic ban chan side dishes, which are abundant, fresh, and clearly homemade, including kimchi and other seasonings that feel heartfelt and traditional.

While seating may feel slightly uncomfortable and parking seems limited from the front, ample space is available around back, with convenient parking in front, side, and back. Visitors can expect prices comparable to other BBQ restaurants in the area. The staff is attentive and friendly, often refilling banchan and helping with cooking tips. The restaurant's cleanliness and inviting atmosphere contribute to an enjoyable evening. In summary, Mad for Grill offers a delicious and casual night out with excellent food and a welcoming ambiance, making it a must-visit for those seeking authentic Korean cuisine.

Since I have to leave a review, I HAVE to put a star but this place does NOT deserve even ONE star. Ordered one seng galbi and seng samgulpsal. banchan (japchae) was not edible as the noddle was out of date. When mentioned, the server dumped it in the trash right infront of me (BAD MANNER-customer service was BAD..). Galbi meat was so tough and the server did not grill it properly. samgulpsal had hair on the skin and too thick to chew. THE WORST korean restaurant experience...read full review
