“This Korean takeout establishment is conveniently located within H-Mart in Falls Church. I have enjoyed trying various dishes here, and today, I opted for the Ox Knee Soup. It was pretty enjoyable, with a rich and flavorful cow bone soup enhanced by some delightful pieces of ox cartilage. The overall quality was satisfactory. The ordering process was efficient, with my food ready in 10 minutes. I appreciated that the staff was not seeking tips, which contributed to a pleasant service experience, and I found the prices reasonable.

Easily one of those places you end up recommending to everybody.“

“Excellent Wings! Drove in from Ashburn. 5 Stars!“

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

“We had a really great dinner experience with their prefix menu, and like other reviews that mentioned, the prefix is really good value. Service was superb as well, the waitress actually grilled the meat for us. They had non alcoholic beverage options. It’s been years since I had bingsoo and cold buckwheat noodles with beef broth so it was very sentimental for me to have those dishes again! Atmosphere was definitely more upscale than a regular Korean bbq restaurant.“

“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.“

“GO TO LIZ!!! She was absolutely amazing and such a delight to have around, my first experience here and it was superb because of her. Such good energy and a vibe. Very good explanation and great recommendations. Will be coming again and will be seeing her! ❤❤“

“Friendly service and great food.“

“I visited Sorimmara in Annandale for lunch with a friend today, and we had a great experience. The food was delicious, the prices were very reasonable, and the service was excellent. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and very helpful throughout our meal. I definitely plan to come back again soon!“

“We had an amazing dining experience at Makchang Dodook in Springfield! The service was outstanding from start to finish, and the food was absolutely delicious. The large intestine was incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked definitely one of the best we’ve ever had. Every dish they served us was fresh, tasty, and satisfying. A special shoutout to our server, Deina, who took such great care of us. She was attentive, kind, and truly showed compassion in the way she assisted us. Because of her and the amazing food, we will definitely be coming back again!💓💓💓“

“Friendly service! We came in without a reservation and they were able to accommodate us quickly. The rose tteokbokki is soooo delicious!!!! Highly recommend!! The prices are reasonable and their food is delicious - definitely a new favorite in the DMV area!“

“Yummy Korean fast food, k-pop, and nice staff!“

“The chiken good! Yea, but. The Rose Tteok Bokki was good. Hold on thoug! The water was amazingg! Best water I’ve had of all time. This water tastes likes…. like silence finally speaking—clean, weightless, and impossibly alive against the tongue.
It moves through the mouth like a memory you didn’t know you had, something ancient and familiar, as if your body recognizes it before your mind does.
There is a softness to it, a kind of invisible clarity that feels less like drinking and more like being restored, cell by cell, into something simpler.
Good water carries no flavor, and yet it holds the echo of stone, rain, and distance, as though it has traveled the world just to arrive here, unchanged.
In that moment, it is not just thirst that is quenched, but a quiet, unspoken longing to return to something pure and unbroken.
And somewhere beneath that purity, there lingers the faint reminder that everything living depends on it—and eventually returns to it.“

“You must try pork belly here. They have premium quality pork belly. I normally don’t like pork belly because it’s greasy and has so much fat. Pork belly here is very thick but has less fat compared to other places.

Their grill is primarily designed for pork belly so grease can come off the grill through a hole.

Servers are nice and friendly but that’s because I speak Korean.

All side dishes are great. The stew and steamed eggs are solid to enjoy with meat and rice.

I highly recommend this place. The atmosphere of this restaurant is like an authentic k-bbq place in Korea.“

“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!“

“You have got to ask for Jay Kim, he is the best server in the house. He was patient and ever so helpful with us as first time hot potters. I had a vegetarian hot pot, well, except for the dumplings. Although they have no vegetarian options, he worked with me and provided me with an alternate option. It would be more awesome for them to add it to their menu tho for those of us who just love veggies. The broth is vegetarian based so it makes sense to have a vegetarian option along with it. We had a party of 8 and Jay Kim made it so much fun!!! The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was so fresh. One other option that would have been great to have would be fresh ginger at the sauce bar and mushrooms on the vegetable plate. We were all pleasantly pleased with our food. The ambiance is very nice, low light but more than enough to cook and enjoy each other's company. Jay Kim made sure we always had what we needed. The sauce bar was amazing, so many choices. I recommend making a few bowls, some for the broth and and some for dipping your cooked food. If you get any type of meat, also make a sauce to marinade the meat. You don't have to but it made a good difference. Meats are thinly sliced for quick cooking and again,so fresh. The price was worth the amount of food and the experience. There is an all you can eat option or an a la carte option where you just get one meat selection and a vegetable plate which was more than enough for us as a party of young ladies. This was a great first hot pot experience and I definitely recommend it, just make sure to ask for Jay Kim. I know you will enjoy it!!!“

“I went im to Seoul Spice the other day for my lunch break and let me tell you the worker kyneesha went above and beyond to satisfy my cravings because no one else in there seemed to cared but she did and she gets 1000 stars from Me...4we need more worker with her work ethic she is professional and very attentive ...she is why I'll be back“

“As a party of two, we ordered the tteokbokki + regular kimbap combo and spicy squid over rice. The food was decent, but not one of my favorite Korean restaurants. The tteokbokki was on the sweeter side. Kimbap was good! The staff kept trying to talk to us in Korean even though we don’t speak it, but that’s okay.“

“Today I had a really satisfying meal at K-Street inside K Market.

The pork cutlet was very comforting and balanced — just a classic, reliable donkatsu flavor.
What impressed me the most was the tuna kimbap. The ratio of egg and carrot was excellent, and the flavor was clean, mild, and not salty or overpowering at all. It felt very different from the typical overly seasoned $9.99 kimbap.

Everything tasted fresh and well balanced.

I’d definitely recommend the donkatsu and kimbap at K-Street inside K Market if you are looking for a simple and satisfying Korean-style meal.“

“Decided to try this late-night place after a long day at work. Since I was dining by myself, I was seated at the bar on the first floor--which I don't mind as it provided me a nice view of the yakitori station. I visited on a Friday evening so it was a little busy, but since I was on the first floor the atmosphere was calmer compared to the second floor. Jack was the only server on the first floor but he was prompt with my orders as well as the other customers on the floor. I ordered the grilled large intestines/daechang with a side order of kimchi as well as a light lychee martini. I've had daechang before, but I gotta say the daechang over here just tops it. They're marinated in this addicting sauce and the intestines were grilled perfectly. That chewiness and greasiness I normally get from eating just one piece of daechang from anywhere else, I surprisingly did not get after eating a few pieces here. I definitely would go again and try out their other menu items, especially their yakitori!“

“On our way from Virginia to NJ, stopped off at this google recommended restaurant! In desperate need of revival from some hot soup of a rainy long drive! What a gem! The owner was so kind! Food was like halmeoni (grandma) made it! Flavors were on point! Loved the kimchi (cabbage) and kkakdugi (radish) so much we bought some to take home! …
Delicious comfort!“

“Come sing at the bar! Room! With great food and drinks!!“

“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.“

“I can say this is one of my personal favorite to go, especially during summer when it’s so hot outside and I am craving for something to cool down.

Owners are very friendly and always greet you with smile. It’s a self-serve restaurant in a food court, but they answer your questions in a nice manner and appreciates you dining with them.

The food is so gooood. Cold buckwheat soba is a must-try here, especially during summer. There is a bowl of sauce that you mix wasabi and minced raddish, and you put buckwheat noodles into the sauce and eats it from there. Other buckwheat noodle dish are solid as well if you want something warm or hot to heat you up.

Over the summer, I go to this restaurant at least once a month, if not more. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants to eat healthy noodles with diverse flavor.“

“I have been searching for a place that could make dumplings that tasted like my hominis since she passed away. I have found it here, I will never go anywhere else. When it comes to authentic Korean food this is the place to go. Everything is delicious“

“The service was excellent. I like the special treat in the end. Glad we decided to go here.“

“This was a really cozy and yummy place. All of the workers are extremely friendly and the food made me want seconds. I got the sullungtang, the combination sullungtang and fried dumplings and it came with kimchi and it was soooo good. I totally recommend this place.“

“The staff were very welcoming when I entered the restaurant. My girlfriend and I sat at the bar, and the bartenders were extremely friendly — the service was excellent. The food and drinks were great, and the owner even gave us a couple of pieces of sashimi to try, which were amazing! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy a fun night out with friends.“

“I visit Virginia and I saw this place
And I walked in. It is a small restaurant. I try Su JB Jambong
And Kim pop
Is a good price also delicious soup is wonderful little spicy!
Thank you you guys!!!
And I can recommend this place!“

“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.“

“It’s a really nice store.“

“Next stop on the Virginialicious Food Tour Company was Red Holic, and this one really stood out.

Great atmosphere, great energy, and just an overall fun experience. The food was excellent across the board, but what made this stop different was the personal touch. The owner came out, served us herself, poured the Korean beer, and took the time to walk us through everything we were eating. You could tell she genuinely cared that we understood and enjoyed the experience.

That kind of hospitality goes a long way.

And once again, Sujin kept everything running smooth. She does an incredible job tying each stop together and making sure you’re not just eating, but actually experiencing it.

This tour just keeps building momentum with every stop.“

“This place is legitimately fantastic. I’m a big fan of hole-in-the-wall office building delis (okay, it’s an admittedly unusual interest…), and this one is a great example. It’s got that perfect mashup of deli standbys like breakfast sandwiches, subs, and sandwiches, plus a bunch of things from the owner’s background - in this case, great Korean food. Likewise, the variety of snacks and drinks is similarly broad, with a lot of unusual things you don’t see many places. Too bad it’s only open on weekdays, but if you’ve got to see a specialist for some doctor’s appointment, this is a good reason to pick one at 5454 Wisconsin.“

“Awesome place friendly staff, Ally was awesome she played some uno with us while it wasn’t busy. Karaoke prices are good for the space and definitely great for special events. Great atmosphere definitely recommend if ya wanna be a regular“

“Gene was an awesome job! Food was great. I can't wait to bring my family back.“

“Wonderful service and equally wonderful food ! So glad to have good quality Korean food in our local community!“

“You should try eat in here. The foods are excellent and professional to service.I really love eat in here.“

“Seoul Spice is absolutely amazing!
The food is incredibly delicious, fresh, and full of authentic flavor. The portions are generous, leaving you fully satisfied and impressed with the value.

The customer service is outstanding. The girl with glasses and a red shirt was attentive, and professional, which made the whole experience even better.

Seoul Spice never disappoints! 🔥🍜💯“

“I've been going to Mad For Grill for years, before it was mad for grill and called Nak Won. Not sure if the owners changed but the food is still delicious. Of all the options in Annandale, especially when there are AYCE options, the reason why I choose this place are -

The seafood pancake and cold noodles are the best here. And the kimchi is also very very good. Although it is not the cheapest option, in terms of taste, I tent to lean towards Mad For Grill.“

“Great Korean spot! The army stew came in a huge portion — easily enough for 3–4 people to share. The pork katsu was a bit on the harsh side for my taste, but still decent. It’s a solid place for late-night eats, especially for night owls, but keep in mind that although they close at 2, the kitchen shuts down a little earlier.( Been there once around 11, was told their kitchen was closed) Overall, good food and worth checking out!“

“This place is a FIVE stars for one simple reason, the food is incredible! Prices are more so reasonable for the portions too. The soups are made of broth, not water. The fried food is always white, not dark cause the oil changed and not just topped off. I never had any problem with the staff or service cause I treat them with respect. They can make any anything more or less spicy, just need to ask. They're always sanitizing when I visit.“

““Karaoke, great drinks, and an excellent staff make this a great night destination for someone looking to have a good time with friends. The food is also great, presenting many exotic and delicious dishes, as well as the old classics. The place itself looks amazing, with a great night ambiance, complete with hanging lights and great music. And did I mention the super-fun karaoke?.”“

“sooo...this is my favorite spot in the entire NCR. The food is excellent, the service is excellent, and the accommodations and ambiance create holiday memories to remember!“
