50 Best Korean Restaurants near Tysons

“Literally EVERYTHING on their menu is DELICIOUS! I Love the teriyaki chicken, the beef bulgogi, and their chicken pesto panini 🤤 They are also very very generous with the amount of food you get. For example their chicken panini has a HUGE piece of Chicken breast in it and the mozzarella cheese are HUGE and thick fresh slices. The word "skimpy" is unknown here 🤤 They have an AMAZING drink selection as well. Really love how many different types of Green Tea they have. If you have a chance to stop by or you're close by, I highly recommend you give it a try. They have outdoor seating with umbrellas.“

“Very cute place, delicious teas and desserts, nice staff.“

“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.“

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

“Friendly service and great food.“

“The workers are so so nice! They’re so patient when you need help. The food is always on point and the decor is so adorable. My cousins and I are always greeted with a warm smile from the beautiful tall man. He’s so sweet like a dad, I adore this place. 10/10 you’ll love it here.“

“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!“

“I got a fever, and the only prescription is KPOT. Our second time going, and this may be our new favorite restaurant. Kudos to Dale for giving us an awesome dining experience yet again.“

“Sorimmara Annandale delivers a truly refined Korean dining experience. Every dish is beautifully prepared, showcasing fresh ingredients, balanced flavors, and exquisite presentation. The service is equally impressive — warm, attentive, and effortlessly professional.

A perfect blend of authenticity and sophistication, Sorimmara stands out as one of Annandale’s finest restaurants. Highly recommended for those seeking elevated Korean cuisine and impeccable hospitality.“

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

“I have ate multiple times at this restaurant and the service and food was fantastic! The food was hot and seasoned to perfectio“

“Wow! There hasn’t been a good hibachi place near Vienna, and I’m so glad this place offers it now! Their Korean fried chicken has always been delicious, so I come here often. This time, I tried their new menu item — the Shrimp Steak Hibachi with extra shrimp. It was a bit sweet for my taste, but the portion was generous and it was really tasty. It’s much more affordable than fancy teppanyaki restaurants, and the value is amazing. I love that I can enjoy chicken, hibachi, tteokbokki, and beer all in one place. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!!!“

“Back in Korea, I used to eat spicy food when I felt stressed. I recently had the mild Tteokbokki and Gimbap combo, and it was freshly made to order, delicious, and really comforting. It felt like my stress melted away. I have also ordered delivery, but the restaurant itself is so clean and pleasant that I highly recommend dining in. I think I will be coming back often.“

“IVY and ANDREA are the best waitresses there by far. 🇻🇳🇹🇭 It was my first time. IVY and ANDREA has great menu knowledge and ensured it was a great time. IVY and ANDREA were working hard, always cleaning, and having fun. They kept smiling! IVY and ANDREA kept the bar clean by making sure I had everything I needed for dining at the bar.

Those waitresses are AMAZING!!! ANDREA and IVY are beyond exemplary, very patient, and very friendly and informative with menu choices.

Every other employee there was mostly forgettable. Next time you go, ask to sit with them.

Tell the Managers to give ANDREA and IVY a pay bump and pay raise!!! ASAP!

Thank you, IVY and ANDREA! 🇻🇳🇹🇭“

“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.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“This place’s jjolmyeon is amazing. I had it last week and was blown away by how fresh and chewy it was.
Today I tried the spicy tuna gimbap, tuna gimbap, and rose tteokbokki, and once again—so impressed.
I’m so happy I found this great spot.
Oh! The staff were incredibly friendly, and the service was fast too. 😄
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ
(Update)
I placed a large order from Myeongga Gimbap today, and they packed it in a big tray. Thanks to that, it was a huge hit at the meeting! The packaging was so beautiful, thank you so much!“

“Food Delicious! And the staff super kind and friendly! Totally recomendable!“

“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.“

“It’s a really nice store.“

“It's a place I often go to when I go to Fall Church. Going to pop up makes you feel like you're in another world. The new pork belly roasting machine today was really interesting. So I ordered it. The rich taste of pork is not greasy, but the savory flavor is something I really like.“

“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.“

“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“

“Best K BBQ in the area!! Authentic ban chan side dishes and seasonings, organic and fresh produce, high quality and generous portion of food.

Catering, authentic Korean ban chan side dishes, desserts, etc. available immediately next door to the restaurant.

Nondescript area so use Google Maps closely. Ample parking available in front, side, and back.“

“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.“

“Must Try place with unique flavors BBQ, bowls,Burritos,Taco's, Korean flavor Burgers are amazing must try Bulgogi Fries“

“So delicious my first time there“

“I opted for delivery. The food was still hot when it got to me. The jajangmyeon was really savory and paired well with all the kimchi that came with it. I also ordered a side of veggie dumplings and also went well with the black bean sauce.“

“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! 🔥🍜💯“

“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. For those interested in dining, tables and chairs are available for guests.“

“Yen Yen has such a wonderful personality, she made us feel comfortable and genuinely welcomed. She wasn’t just providing service , she made us feel like valued guests.We love her energy ! It’s easy to see why this restaurant has such high ratings. It’s not only because of the amazing food, but also because of the outstanding service.“

“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?.”“

“Great food and hospitality can’t wait to come back! Food was piping hot and complimentary condiments were delicious! My fish was perfectly cooked!“

“We went on Saturday around 6 pm and were able to find parking. Food and service were excellent. Not very busy. However, they are known for more late night business.

Keeping this review here from December 2025 or so: 3 stars
We have been trying to go here with no success. There is never amy parking even after sitting in the parking lot for 15 mins waiting on someone to come out. Surrounding parking areas are blocked off or have towing signs posted. We will keep trying to go, however, since the reviews are good.“

“Oh K-Dog can be a bit hit-or-miss. The food is fantastic -- all the K-dogs and sauces are amazing, and the toast sandwiches are absolutely delicious! However, service can sometimes be slow, and orders don't always come out in the right queue order. If you're on a short lunch break, you might want to plan ahead. Still, the flavors make it worth visiting when you have the time.“

“My friend and I stopped by Lighthouse Tofu for lunch and really enjoyed our meal. We ordered different tofu soups and shared the Pa Jun, and everything was delicious. The soups were flavorful, comforting, and served piping hot, while the Pa Jun was crispy, savory, and perfect for sharing.

The lunch prices were very reasonable and offered great value for the quality and portion sizes. Just keep in mind that prices are higher during dinner service, so lunch is an especially good time to visit.

The restaurant has a casual, welcoming atmosphere, and the food is clearly the star of the show. While I wouldn't quite give it 5 stars, it's a solid 4-star experience and a place I'd happily return to when craving Korean comfort food in Annandale.“

“This is my favorite Korean barbecue spot. Anytime a friend of mine suggests kbbq, we either go here or their sister hot pot location if we are in the mood.

The service is great, they are always fast at delivering the items. They will stop by to help cook the meat if you are not a pro. The menu has lots of options and unless they are super busy, they don’t limit the time to two hours. They’ll let you hang out a little longer, they may cut off the ordering time, but they won’t make you vacate the booth.

I’ve always had great experiences.

There is plenty of free parking, but it does get busy. We’ve had issues finding parking before, but I’ve never had to wait more than 10 minutes for someone to leave. It’s in a complex with a few other restaurants.“

“Just like the name suggests, it felt like enjoying a home-cooked meal. I was so happy to have such delicious, thoughtfully prepared Korean food, and my kids loved it too. Highly recommend the seolleongtang and the bulgogi stone pot bibimbap!“

“Everything was delicious! Can’t wait to go back!! The sauces I need to be bottled, they were so good!! I loved the lemongrass pork!!!“

“A traditional mom and pop type of spot with the best cuts of meat any Korean BBQ place can offer alongside a secret sauce that goes well with all of them. I’ve realized that in order to reach a healthy, indestructible, integrated, and whole Jungian psyche, one must get everything out of their Freudian system per se, and no one enables that better than “Little Korea.” The discharge of unconscious psychic content through ‘free association’ among other things can get us to where we want to go in terms of a healthy and integrated psyche. It’s a process which ends with what is unconscious becoming conscious. Hence, the two halves of the ‘yin and yang’ which happen to be on the Korean flag and in turn symbolize the two halves of the psyche which in turn seek integration, namely, the conscious and unconscious halves of the psyche. The unconscious strives to become conscious. And we facilitate it through various techniques, one of which is to get everything out of one’s Freudian system per se. It is of course a tumultuous process, but one which assumes its course nonetheless. And no one enables that whole psychoanalytical process better than “Little Korea.” They have my stamp of approval and always will.“
