“This is the best, well-priced Korean food in all of DC! It’s hard to drive out to the suburbs of MD and VA to get Korean food, so I’m so so glad Mana Dosirak exists! As a Korean-American who is picky about her food, this place is amazing. Will continue to support!I always get take-out as there is no room to dine-in.Looks like it is a family operation - they are always friendly and kind.Parking: Mana Dosirak has a free public parking lot. I believe it is shared with one or two other stores. I’ve never had an issue finding parking. It also seems like it would be easy to find street parking.“

The first time I went I got the chicken tenders and fries and there were like 6-7 big tenders and the tray it was in was covered in fries. I just got the mini box today with chicken teriyaki and I finished it. I recommend it to anyone going there.“

“I went here twice since it was super close to where I was staying for my work trip. I ordered for pick-up, and the staff has been really kind both times. I ordered the bowl both times but tried the bulgogi and spicy pork. Both of these options were delicious and well seasoned. I'm not used to a Korean dish prepared like a poke bowl, but it was the best I had in the area. I'm giving it a 4 just because it doesn't fully match up to my favorite Korean spots, but it's a decent spot for grabbing Korean food on the go!“

“Takorean was given a high endorsement from an associate of mine to try while in Washington DC. They were not wrong.Cleanliness. 4.5 of 5. The restaurant was well maintained and appeared very clean.Service: 3.5 of 5. Staff was professional but not talkative to the customers. A little more interaction would have been nice for a first trial run.Food quantity 5 of 5. I ordered the slaw bowl that had romaine slaw with some kimchi slaw. For the meat I had chicken. Additions were tomatoes, pickled daikon radish, and cilantro. A lot of food, left the restaurant full.Food quality 5 of 5. Every bite was full of flavor and pleasant. The aroma of the food matched the taste. Though late in the day when I solicited the restaurant, the food was still fresh, delicious, and delightful.Price: $$ 15-20 per person would be reasonable, I didn’t chose a lot of options that could increase one’s bill.Overall I would give this restaurant a 4.5 of 5“
