There are but, for some reason, not really good korean restaurants IMHO.


Absolutely agree. Hop on the beltway and you'll be in Korean food heaven in 20 minutes.


What are your favorites in Northern Virginia? We will definitely try it on a weekend.
Anything reasonably good in Moco? This is for a weekday birthday for a Korean-food-loving tween and I don't think we can make the treak out to Annandale on a weeknight.


What does your kid like?


tofu/mushroom bibimbap, sweet potato noodles, kimbap, tofu stew (soondubu?), scallion pancakes. Her best friend from the city we left is Korean-American and most of her korean-food eating was done at their house. She is in withdrawal

Try this place:
https://www.hwagaejangtuh.com/
It's on Veirs Mill. Authentic and good but do have a fair bit of meat on their menu. It's next to a Korean Bakery.

I ate there with coworkers a few times but I have no idea how it compares to other restaurants. They had to order for me, so it seemed authentic. I had no idea what was going on but it was all delicious.

Also a place called Chadol just opened up near Onelife in Rockville. This is the opposite end of the spectrum and is fancier and more expensive. Haven't tried it yet.


Oh yeah, I forgot about Arirang. That place is not bad and they have jjambong too (kinda unusual for traditional korean place).

My son and husband love it because of the bibimbap, but since I'm not a fan of that, I don't think the rest of the menu is impressive.

Seoul Food DC in Takoma Park is wonderful (especially if vegan or vegetarian - they also serve some meat). Some of their food is traditional and some fusion.

We are vegetarian but love Korean, and just recently moved to this area.
