Restaurants in Annandale

“My Co worker brought the blueberry yogurt cake into the office... OMG. It was light and fluffy and so fresh. The like chocolate name plate was the best chocolate I've ever tasted. I will be in soon, I'm planning my wedding as we speak!”

“What a trip back to Thailand! The food here is amazing!!! From their famous Volcano noodles to their thai tea, the food is seasoned perfectly! We also had the Hat Yai fried chicken that were slightly over fried but still delicious.”

“Large portion sizes and good food- one platter with an appetizer and salad was more than enough for two people. The service was warm and they sized up the servings, as well as gave us extra water and dates for iftar. Nice local spot to visit.”

“This is one of my go-to places for quick and delicious food. I've never been disappointed by anything I've had here. The staff is friendly and respectful and the restaurant is always incredibly clean.”

“I have been going to cue for many years, and I have never had a bad moment here. All the bartenders and staff are extremely welcoming! The most important part is they remember you as a person…not as a customer! I highly recommend visiting this wonderful spot.”

“Had such a sweet time in the tea room. Delightful beverages and very pleasant ambiance. Kindness of owners in welcoming us and making us feel at home just a wonderful first visit. Will surely go back.”

“Nice small house and super friendly employees. Food was really tasty and made as you ask them. We had lamb gyro over rice, well seasoned rice with gyro meat. And nice small place outside to eat. No comment left for improvement and they are pro Palestinians which I admire.”

“Always a winner. Can order anything on the menu and enjoy it. Been going for years and will continue to go. Only downside is it's a bit pricey. You pay for what you get. Quality.”

“We got the Chicken Shawarma and an Afghan Burger, not knowing that it wasn't a burger in the American sense, but it was an interesting surprise! The Chicken itself in the shawarma was a bit dry, but the combination of sauce, seasoning, and the afghan bread was really tasty, note that there is ALOT of black pepper. The Afghan burger itself was alright, the volume of food for the price you pay is pretty good, finding food in NoVA for sub $15 that will fill you up is always nice to see. There were fries, boiled eggs, and a sausage, along with a lot of black pepper once again, not sure if there was supposed to be a sauce but that might've helped the burger be a bit more tasty/less dry. Overall it's a pretty good option if you're passing by the food truck and want a quick bite, or are in the mood for shawarma/Afghan burgers in general! The food took a bit to prep, but service was really friendly.”

“I love this bakery! Since, the first visit everything I have ever ordered has been fresh, well prepared and delicious! I love the teas, coffees, sandwiches and of course the dessert!! I travel out to them every year to get a cake on my birthday. That is how amazing they are.”

“The owner was really nice. The gimbap was perfectly wrapped. Rice was nice and thin with lots of filling. The pork katsu was crispy and the pork was tender. The sauce tasted really great. This is a very unassuming place with high quality food.”

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

“Excellent authentic Korean food. The atmosphere is definitely on the homey vibe. I would recommend this place if you’re just looking for a great authentic tasting Korean food!”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Incheon Nova, a modern fusion Korean cuisine restaurant, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! The culinary experience at Incheon Nova surpassed all my expectations with its delightful and delicious dishes, each infused with a touch of creativity. The flavors at Incheon Nova were simply explosive! From the moment I took my first bite, I was instantly transported to a world of culinary bliss. The combination of traditional Korean ingredients with innovative cooking techniques resulted in dishes that were not only unique but also incredibly tasty. It was evident Chef Ahn at Incheon Nova possess a true passion for his craft. The modern and stylish interior created a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience. Whether you're looking for a cozy dinner for two or a celebratory gathering with friends, Incheon Nova offers a versatile space that caters to all occasions. What truly made my visit to Incheon Nova exceptional was the friendly and accommodating staff. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted with warm smiles and attentive service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of my dining experience was enjoyable, offering helpful recommendations and ensuring all my needs were met.”

“We have been going to this restaurant for several years now. They have the best kabob nearby and such lovely staff. If you end up waiting, they do their best to make sure they give you an accurate estimate of how long the wait would be, complimentary soup and sometimes tea, and keep everyone entertained.It is what you would expect for a small corner shop in Annandale. But the food is beyond expectations and there are lots of options. I appreciate how flexible they are with editing orders.Parking: Busy center but worth the wait to get parking and eat there”

“This place is bomb! Their portions are huge & they have some of the best spring rolls i’ve ever had! Everything always taste so good & their prices are genuinely unmatched compared to the other places in the 10 mile radius. Definitely recommend this place to everyone”

“I ordered take out for the first time and this place knocked it out of the park. The serving size is perfect and the food was delicious. Will definitely be my go to spot for take out Chinese in Annandale.”

“Excellent addition to the fast growing bubble tea market in Northern Virginia. A wide variety of drinks and additions. Customizable and great service.”

“This was my first time to this establishment and all I can say is Wow! From the service to the food it was a great time. The snowflake fries are so good, so good!”

“Moved nearby a few years ago and just noticed this place. I decided to give them a try and ordered cheese pizza, onion rings and fries. Pizza had better flavor compared to many other places. Onion rings and fries were good. I'm glad it's within walking distance”

“I grew up across from a Thai place where we got to know to know the family who owned it. Since moving to VA, this is the first time I've had something that tastes just like what I grew up eating.Maybe it's the nostalgia, but I am so happy to have found this place!Parking: The parking lot and spaces are small and limited. I don't recommend bringing a truck.”

“Outstanding pupusas. I came here for a few pupusas. They have about four different ones. I had the cheese, the beans and cheese, and chicharon (fried pork). They were large, hot and really good flavor. The cabbage slaw (or pickled cabbage) was ok. I have had others with much better flavor, maybe with more vinegar? The salsa was pretty good. They were out of tamales. I would like to come back and try the tamales and Lomo Saltado. They serve Salvadorean and Peruvian food.”

“***** Rice Pot Asian Cuisine has an extensive diverse menu I cannot find in my neighborhood. We highly recommend anything with eggplant in it. Our food was very tasty. Will definitely come back. (I don’t know why I can’t give it a star rating)”

“ما شاء الله مطعم مع اراكيل شي راقي ونظيف استقبال روعه اسلوب تعامل حلو جدا ..... شكرآ لكم وفقكم ربي”

“Perfect place to go to when you are craving Korean food late at night! I love that it is open 24 hr, and the they offer a good selection of food with reasonable price. The service was fast and there was a good amount of people at 11pm. The soondubu was solid! I would go again if I am in the area.”

“Parking: Amplio estacionamiento y muy seguroKid-friendliness: Es adecuado el ambiente para niños y hay algunos menús para niños.Wheelchair accessibility: Hay acceso para silla de ruedas”

“Court service and one of the most consistent Foods of Burger King the lady that works there she's Spanish she's always on time and always gets my order right”

“In Korean shabu-shabu, people eat together from the same pot.In the United States, it was fun to eat shabu-shabu from each person’s own pot.Meat and seafood were served, and vegetables and other ingredients were brought out and eaten in a buffet style.It was nice that you could choose the shabu-shabu soup base according to your taste.All ingredients were fresh and delicious.I had a great time and had a delicious meal :)”

“Outstanding quality of ingredients makes Bengong a cut high above all other tea shops I’ve been to. They use real milk. They actually have real tea in the taro milk tea (most shops don’t m), etc. The quality of the ingredients becomes immediately obvious when you taste it. Also, the cost is basically the same as the regular tea shops anyways, so you’re getting way more bang for your buck.”

“From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by the warm hospitality of the staff, who are eager to guide you through the menu and ensure a memorable dining experience.”

“Great experience!! Always get the taro smoothie with boba”

“Well prepared to your order. first time having shaved ice cream. staff courtesy and attentive to detail”

“Delicious boba—especially the taro milk one! And it's a really cool atmosphere with chill music!”

“First time reviewing but 1,000 time visiting this place. Never disappoints - excellent food every time and for a great value tooHighly recommend the vegetarian pancake, mushroom tofu soup, Kimchee meat soup, and chicken teriyaki!”

“Enjoyed a delicious lunch!”

“We grabbed soju and beers while we waited for takeout. Everyone was super nice and helpful. When we got home the food was still hot, crispy, and delicious. This will be our new KFC go to. Thanks for a great dinner!”

“First time at the Annandale location. I ordered 2 pupusas revueltas. The pupusas were pretty good, not the best I've tried, but definitely not bad either. What stood out to me was the irony of the name of the establishment and the fact that it took about 15-20 minutes to get my two pupusas. Far from express. And there were maybe 2 other people waiting for their food. I'm not sure what took so long for the most standard order they could have, but hopefully, next time, it won't take as long. The pupusas were good though!”

“Me Felip was on point when he said the pizza is good and I will enjoy the pizza was actually great and I really enjoyed I will be coming back to order more pizza and try out anything else they sell”

“A&J was a delicious find! The food was amazing and hit the spot. Small dining area, but perfect for taking out. Parking is a little rough- the lot itself is falling apart and full of massive holes. Parking can be tight.”

“Came to 9292 for the first time and left completely stuffed. We tried the unlimited bbq which was $37 per person. There were plenty of sides, which were constantly refilled (even before some of them were completely finished) and the edges of the grill have compartments for steamed egg, cheese corn, mushrooms and sprouts (which also were constantly refilled). The service is quite attentive and they like to come back to help cook the meats. The meat portions are massive!! We wanted to try multiple types of meat but by the time we finished our second choice, we were already pretty stuffed. I think it would've been nice to have smaller portions of each meat so we could try all that the menu had to offer. The grill is also small due to the sides cooking along the edges so it takes longer to cook the meat as well. Overall the flavors are good and it was a fun experience. Would return with small groups only - it may be hard to keep the meat cooking fast enough for a large group. Bonus - they give you a melon popsicle at the end! Side note- the place is fairly new but it felt very smoky with stale air, and the tables seemed a bit sticky/greasy.”

“I had a fried whole fish here. It was amazing. Friendly and attentive staff. The owner came out and checked on us multiple times. They also have a very healthy vegan platter along with spaghetti options, well flavored and fulfilling. Ambience was also great. Sporty bar vibe with beautiful Ethiopian traditional coffee setup. I’ll definitely go back.”

“I order two pounds of coffee a month from Beanetics. They have a wide selection of beans from around the world and it's fun trying different options. Their website is easy to use and picking up locally is a breeze. Support your local coffee roaster!”

“When have I ever had bad service at Chick- fi-la? Never. I ordered a deluxe chicken sandwich, side large waffle fries. If you don't want the beverage, you save about .85 cents or $1 if you order a-la-carte. Polite and friendly service. I think this may be a new location? There are a lot of new businesses popping up in Annandale/K-Town. So, I'm not sure if it was already there or whethet I just noticed it because I was hungry, lol. The inside dining area is spacious, open and modern. They even have two high-top, long dining tables. I tried to get pics, but patrons were dining. I don't eat a lot of fast food, at most four times per year. So when I go, it's sorta a big deal for me. Great service.”

“A KFC and a Taco Bell in the same place?! At the same counter!? Will wonders never cease?!Food was as expected, came quickly and was hot. Large fry portion is generous. Expected the biscuits to be dry but they were actually lovely and buttery.All in all, very much met expectations. Thanks, Colonel.”

“Food is Wendy’s, it’s what you expect from any other Wendy’s. It tasted fresh and well made no complaints on the flavor/temp on the food. I did however get the wrong order but that didn’t matter because of the next part of my review….Service: service is amazing to put it lightly. I mean when you go into a Wendy’s or any establishment for that matter you expect friendly service etc the usual. But these workers, specifically the lady at the front taking the orders was great. She was attentive, nice, very well spoken and didn’t rush us. I completely disregarded the fact I got the wrong order because they were just that nice. Plus it tasted good anyways! She answered in good detail all my questions on what each menu item had.The atmosphere felt friendly and inviting.I think the one thing that bothered me a bit was the lack of drink choices due to them being out of stock at the self serve fountain machine. But to be fair I did go in later in the evening after dinner rush.”

“This is the first time that I encountered long lines at this time of day so it was unusual for this store. Also, this store was a KFC/ Taco bell combo and I was interested in the KFC ”

“Good, quick, and accurate service with mobile orders. Seating area was clean and modern.if you like McDonald's, you should definitely like this location.Please understand, The rating is relative to my expectations for a fast food restaurant.Parking: Shared parking with a strip mall ensures there is almost always ample parking.”

“My husband and I found this little spot while out walking . We purchased coffee, bagels and decided to have a scone apiece. The owner and staff are so sweet and you can tell that they love what they do. It will be a regular spot for us to visit.”

“Enjoyed my overall experience here. The soup was flavorful and the portions were huge. The kimchi was a highlight. The sullungtang was rich - I had the combination one and the tendon was out of this world tender. I added a bit more salt and pepper on the table and some kimchi juice. Yukjaejang was even better - packed with veggies and meat and the spice level was perfect. Quite busy on a Saturday early afternoon. Parking is bit tight in the front but more spots are available in the back. I would not recommend parking in the fire lane on the side, but a lot of people did anyways. Excited to go again and try other items.”

“Great food! A must try for everyone!”

“On the way back home from DC, we stopped here based on a friend's recommendation. They didn't disappoint. Great place! Wish we had one in Raleigh! At first glance, we could tell this was a family owned restaurant. They keep it very clean. Good customer service. The menu is simple, but the food is pretty good. The fried chicken and adobo wings are on the well done side, but the flavor is good. The pancit palibok is good. Full of meat and flavor. The lumpia Shanghai is nothing special, but solid. The lechon kawali is outstanding! Very flavorful! The bbq skewers are amazing! Best thing on the menu! Order lots! We ordered just right with no leftovers. Then we got dessert. The halo halo smoothie is the best halo halo I've ever had. It was a perfect combination. It's like a taro smoothie with all the goodies of halo halo. Then, the turon with Ube ice cream I was told is amazing! Unfortunately, my family ate it all before I got to try. We'll visit again, next time we pass through!”

“Delicious food, friendly staff, the premises are a bit crowded; however, they do have outside seating. Parking can be tight.Wheelchair accessibility: Not very accessible to wheelchairs.”

“I am not a fan of Mexican food since I haven't found any really good Mexican restaurants in DC/VA. BUT I love love Taco Ssam's Taco. The shrimp taco is my favorite and Galbee is also good. I loveeeee this place.”

“Delicious seafood bimpap, the squid was fresh and tender while the vegetables were also fresh and crisp! Combine in with steamed white rice in the hot pot and it was the perfect mix!!Highly recommend, sweetest lady who took our order and made sure we enjoyed our meal and was taken care of. Best restaurant in that plaza, try it out!”

“Dropped in for a quick meal after a transcontinental flight. Spicy pork ramen was delicious. This place gives hearty slices of pork and I much more flavorful than other places I’ve been to. Recommend to anyone”

“Had a wonderful time at this gem of a restaurant. The staff was so kind! We ordered the chaat papri and the samosa chaat, as well as some sweets to go.The chaat papri was that perfect blend of crunchy, creamy, spicy, and tangy. The samosa platter was an excellent counterpart, deeply savory and delicious.While we were there, we had halwah (gajar halwa?): wonderfully sweet and comforting. The gulab jamun with cream was hands-down the best I've ever had, anywhere.”

“This place is located in the K International market! I was confused at first when I was looking for it. it's in the food court. The donuts were good. My favorite flavor was TARO. I also tried rne coffee flavored macaroon, which was super sweet and soft, I'd definitely reorder. My drink was fine ,too sweet for me, I'll try something different next time. Overall, we spent about $48 for everything. I guess it was pretty decently priced. Cute place!”

“Quality food. Good selection of munchies and drinks. Always neat and clean. Owner, counter, and kitchen tean are friendly, courteous, and just nice folks.Parking: Parking can get tight on the cafe side of the building. Go around to the other side for a larger lot or access to the parking garage.Wheelchair accessibility: Level.”

“This place will make you feel like you’re in your grandmas house! Korean seafood pancake is delicious! It’s thinker then the typical Korean pancake and it’s just full of flavors. What I loved the most is that the owners makes the pancakes from scratch (made to order). They don’t even pre make the batter! Come visit this place!”

“Wonderful Diner, great servers!! Good food. Music way too loud outside… a shame one can’t talk without shouting. I do love Elvis though!!”

“Little noodle soup shop in a strip mall.. The soup was very good, the delicious broth was rich and flavorful. Hints of warm spices and beefy overtones. I ordered my Pho with brisket, thin sliced steak, and tendon. Complaint the chewy noodles and aromatic herbs served with the soup. I will be back:)”

“First time trying this Korean fried chicken place, we have many around the neighborhood, thankfully the food made up for the lack of customer service, be prepared to wait since the food is made to order or order ahead, hands down best Korean chicken I've had.”

“Wonderful Diner, great servers!! Good food. Music way too loud outside… a shame one can’t talk without shouting. I do love Elvis though!!”

“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!!!”

“When I’m craving Korean BBQ, I come here. The food is definitely fresh and has good flavor even though they don’t season the meat. The service could be better as far as refills on drinks but overall still a good option if you are craving fresh food. Definitely can be on the pricey side.”

“Nice small house and super friendly employees. Food was really tasty and made as you ask them. We had lamb gyro over rice, well seasoned rice with gyro meat. And nice small place outside to eat. No comment left for improvement and they are pro Palestinians which I admire.”

“Iron Age Annandale: A Flavorful Korean BBQ ExperienceI had a fantastic time dining at Iron Age Annandale! This Korean BBQ spot has a lively atmosphere and offers a delicious selection of meats and sides. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and attentive service.The Bulgogi Steak was definitely the highlight of my meal. Perfectly marinated and cooked to tender perfection, every bite was an absolute delight. The rest of the food was equally impressive, showcasing both traditional and modern flavors of Korean cuisine.My only minor suggestion is to visit during weekdays if you can. Parking can get a bit crowded on weekends, but that's a testament to Iron Age's popularity.Overall, I give Iron Age Annandale a solid 4 out of 5 stars. If you're searching for a tasty and satisfying Korean BBQ experience, this is a great place to check out!”

“My friends and I had to change restaurants last second due to the restaurant before not being open and they mentioned this place having great reviews and we decided to go on last second. Absolutely no regrets! We walked in and the atmosphere was great! Our waitress was really nice and helpful, we couldn't have had a better time The Tacos are to die for and the army stew was a great family meal for everyone to share, all great in food and mood. I definitely recommend in trying out the restaurant”

“Location: where Nakwon used to be.Writing review after going 3 times. First time was when they opened and service very lacking. Kalbi came out too frozen but tasted good.Overall to my surprise I actually like the food here. Tried 4 food items. Yangnyum kalbi everytime my fav! Thick pork belly. Kimchi jigae. Maewoontang.Seats are a bit uncomfortable, sits a bit away from the table...The parking area looks small from the road/front side but if you go around back there's plenty parking.I thought it was on the pricey side but comparing it to other bbqs in that area it was comparable.”

“BBQ chicken had nice flavor and fried shrimp was delicious. Could have cocktail sauce and sweet and sour sauce for shrimp but tender, juicy and served nice and warm with good sticky rice”
