A hole-in-the wall restaurant not located in the central centreville, but serving some of the better korean comfort foods in area. One thing they do here are huge portions that are perfect for sharing within a large group. I actually didn't end of ordering anything for myself, and I was still very full at the end from trying everyone's LOL I particularly liked their bossam and kimchi, not usually a fan of bossam but whatever they do here, it's so yummy! I could probably just make do with an order of their daeji bossam, which has everything :) I would also recommend their kimchi jjigae and donkatsu read more

Bon Ga is a mom-and-pop restaurant that is located in a plaza a mile west from the other Korean spots in Centreville. The menu was extensive, filled with lots of homey options that I don't usually see in other restaurants. After ordering, we were served six different banchans, all of which were incredibly homey -- light and not too savory. My favorites were the acorn jelly (which was mixed with salted seaweed and sesame seeds) and the white kimchi. Honestly, all six were really solid. AL TANG - 19.99 Super savory with lots of "sea sweetness" and umami, this stew was rich and piping hot upon arrival. I've never had al tang before, but have heard great things about it. Unfortunately, I didn't love the texture of fish roe (kind of reminded me of the texture of cooked chicken lungs). By the end of the stew, I thought it was too salty, so I didn't end up finishing it. Overall, I'm glad I tried it, but I probably won't get it again. My friend got the mackerel which he loved. I'll look forward to other items on the menu next time. read more

Randomly found this place on google and I can say i definitely want to some here again! The banchan was a good variety of stuff i was surprised there were so much. We got the bossam, seafood pancake, and bulgogi w/ steamed rice. The lady working was so nice she even showed us how to eat the bossam. Everything was so good! read more

Bon Ga was very packed when I got there for dinner with family. It isn't a big place, but they have enough seating for at least 30 people. Despite the small location, they have a lot on their menu. It reminds me of the old ToSokJip, but BonGa def has more items on the menu. I got to try the Kalguksu and donkatsu. I tried the less spicy version. It was savory, warm and filling. The donkatsu was thin, but very tough to chew. The cutlet was not tender at all and just super thin. I don't think it is worth the money to order it. The side dishes weren't to my liking as there was no consistency in the flavors. As far as the service goes, it was quite busy and there were some tables that could have been arranged in order to seat more people. read more

Authentic must-try korean food. Try their Bossam! Def a dish to be shared between 2-4 people since the you can soon have too much of the pork. The ajummas were nice so no complaints on service. Vibes felt comfy and homey similar to what I'd feel in Korea. Don't make my mistake and think the sauce they bring out is sesame when in fact its horseradish. Recommended! read more

This was one of the places in NoVA that I'd go to often if I was craving bibim nang myun back when we used to live here. I was back for a visit and decided to grab dinner here. It is just as great as I remember! Actually, it was even better than I remember (probably part of that being because I haven't found a traditional Korean food place that is this good in Vegas yet). I ordered a few dishes that I could eat over the next few days. I ordered the bibim nang myun, kimchi jeon, and bulgogi dup bap. The kimchi jeon was actually pretty addicting, lol! I was planning to only taste a little before eating the nang myun, but I kept eating more and more. The dipping sauce is absolute perfection--delicious balanced flavors with blend of vinegar, soy sauce, and some aromatic veggies like peppers. I find that a lot of Korean places get the sauce all wrong, but it was the best! The kimchi pancakes were just like I'd expect. They were flavorful, crisp on the edges, and just the right amount of kimchi to pancake ratio. The bulgogi was so good in an interesting way! Interesting because it goes against what I've been encountering with bulgogi in Vegas and just in general at a lot of places, which is over-the-top sauce and flavors. This bulgogi was not like that. It had such a soft, natural flavor with a really good, well-rounded after-taste. It wasn't overly saucey which I also find a lot of Korean places get wrong. This bulgogi just tastes real and authentic. It's closest to what my mom used to make. More noticeable flavors and more sauce isn't always best. Most Korean places don't get this and just go haywire with the sauces and extra spices. Bibim nang myun was just what I expected and just how a remember. Delicious flavor and beautifully prepared, even in a take out bowl! Last but not least, the service was so great! The people there were so friendly and happy, and I felt welcomed there. Even though I didn't dine in, I did go inside to place my order and pick it up, and I also thought the place was clean and well-kept. So happy I got to revisit this old favorite of mine. I really miss the Korean food in this area! read more

People used to rave about the donkatsu and come here just for it for it. It's ginormous. I recently tried it for take out and it was no bueno. The katsu is pounded out so thin and over fried. It was impossible to eat. Dousing in the sauce only helped a little. Mac salad was bland but good (if that makes sense). I'll come back but not for katsu or naeng myun. read more

"I feel like my Korean aunties just invited me to their place and whipped up a meal for my friends and I." If this seems like your vibe, you've found the room of requirements for a delicious home cooked meal at Bon Ga! You're welcomed in by the friendliest staff ever. They are patient in allowing you to soak in the artwork, special menu items but quick to bring you utensils you may have clumsily dropped, refill your cold or hot water, and know when to bring another cold beer/soju! We were a larger party and I am embarrassed to admit it was my first time here since new ownership but so glad I got to experience the new ownership because this place HIT THE SPOT. Spicy raw crab? Seafood pancakes? Bossam? Donkatsu? Kalguksu? You're telling me I can get all the Korean classics and my favorites all in one place? The side dishes were delicious as well and we even debated on packing up some of it; I would happily pay for a portion to take home! I woke up debating on going back for lunch. I was really impressed with all the flavors being spot on and I felt like I was back in Korea enjoying a no frill gooood Korean meal. Thanks for the great meal, service, and next time, I'll have to pack the leftovers because I am seriously regretting not taking some Bon Ga goodness home for later. read more

Visiting Nova for the weekend and met up with a friend for dinner. Wanted to get some Korean food so we ended up at Bon Ga. The store was pretty small on the inside, maybe 9-10 tables? We didn't have to wait, but we got squished into a corner at a small table just for the two of us. Service was friendly and the food was good. Both of us got the 짬뽕 and it was delicious! Huge bowl came out, filled with seafood like crabs, mussels, squid, shrimp. You can get it with either noodles or rice on the side. The whole meal was like digging for treasure in the red broth. The portion size was huge. I could barely finish it. It was a struggle, but a delicious struggle. Would come again in the future to try other things. Also it wasn't too $$$ for what you get so read more

Bon Ga is definitely one of my top 5 Korean restaurants! I recently visited and ordered donkatsu, stir fry squid, and sesame kal gook soo. Every dish was absolutely delicious. The donkatsu, accompanied by its nostalgic, old-school Korean sauce, brought back memories of classic flavors from back in the day. The stir-fry squid was fresh, tender, and packed with flavor. As for the sesame kal gook soo, it might be a hit or miss for some due to the thicker soup, but I loved it! You can really taste the difference in the handmade, cut noodles, and the broth was rich and flavorful. Overall, I highly recommend Bon Ga for anyone looking for authentic Korean cuisine in Centreville. I'll definitely be back for more! read more

Very cute restaurant! Upon walking in there's a few tables & chairs giving for a homey atmosphere. The staff is so sweet - they're all very nice & attentive. I tried the seafood pancake & soon du bu with perilla seed powder. The pancake was crispy - wasn't the biggest fan of octopus but still good. I liked my soon du bu - comforting & flavorful. I'm a pescatarian so there's not too many options for me but the ones I tried were good! read more

Came here for lunch and thought the food fell a bit flat. It wasn't bad, but I was expecting more. Starting with the bulgogi: this was overcooked and saltier than bulgogi I've had at other restaurants. I felt similarly about the haemul soondubu - it was a bit too salty. The kimchi jeon looked beautiful, but I personally prefer well fermented kimchi and was hoping for a tangy punch. This version felt a bit one-dimensional and lacking in flavor. I wouldn't be opposed to coming back, but there are better options in Centreville. read more

Our friend said this was one of her favorite restaurants so we can to try it out. This is a small mom and pop shop serving up really authentic Korean food. We got a couple of things to try and everything was so good! The Bo Ssam had a great flavor and paired well with their different kimchi. The noodles were like none I had before - an earthy spicy flavor and great chewy texture. Would love to come back a try some other dishes!

YUM! Anytime I trek out to deep VA, I always try to find a new Korean or Chinese place. Bon Ga did not disappoint. We came pretty late, but atmosphere was inviting and cafe like. The workers were very friendly and helped us out with our Makgeolli stirring. The food was delicious! The tofu kimchi was deliciously marinated and the portions were huge. You definitely were getting what you paid for. So much better than anything you can find in DC proper. Would definitely recommend this spot. The only reason it is getting 4 stars is because it did not have the gluten free options labeled. read more

Excellent Korean food on par with a lot of places you would find in the Annandale area. Started with the Mondo which were very crispy and thin. Very light filling. Pancake was spicy and light as well. Not over battered. The namyaeun noodles were soupless but the spicy sauce made it very tasty. And the pork cutlet was the winner. Super light gravy on top with purple rice on the side. Amazing service as well. Hard workers read more

I love this place! It's such a cozy restaurant and managed by 3 cute Korean ladies. They were so nice and very welcoming. They came over and talked to us and asked us how we were doing. They were explaining how their bossam is different than others and how theirs is traditional, which I thought was exciting and interesting! Their bossam came out with kimchi style vegetables on both sides - not with Napa cabbage, garlic, and jalapeños as we would normally see. I felt like this added some nice spicy flavor to it! And the meat was very flavorful - a little fat on the end pieces but it was delicious nonetheless. Their style of mul-naengmyon was very interesting - it had a weird taste to it but not in a bad way. And the noodles were not the soba noodles. I liked it but didn't love it. It was still interesting to try. Highly recommend this place!! Beware on Saturday evenings because they have a large group that come in and have dinner! So those are reserved and you might have to wait a little. read more

Bon Ga is a tiny Korean spot that looks like a small family-owned establishment. The hand-drawn pictures on their menu remind me of Japan. It's really cute except they are all labeled in Korean. You almost know what it is because of the picture but then you don't because it's not written in English. You'll still have to reference the main menu. It's going to take a few visits until you figure it all out. The place is quite small and gives you a family vibe. The staff was very helpful in picking out what to order. We went with the safest choices of Kimchi Jigae, Bibimbab, and grilled pork bellies. The taste wasn't phenomenal and it didn't need to. That was a good family meal. If you're craving Korean and in the area, I'd recommend it. read more

No wait for dinner on a Saturday evening, with easy parking right outside the restaurant. We ordered a spicy pork stirfry and beef bone soup. Both were delicious and fresh. The complementary banchan was great, and we even got a second refill. Loved the purple rice. The restaurant space is on the smaller side, but there is plenty of indoor seating. A wonderful authentic spot for Korean food! read more

I found this little hole in the wall when searching for a Korean restaurant with a variety of banchan (side dishes), and had high hopes when I saw it was rated 4.6 stars. What a disappointment. The food was fine if you like the taste of heavy MSG. However, the service was horrible. I am a vegetarian and inquired whether it would be possible to modify a dish by simply omitting a splash of beef broth, and the server responded by saying I would be better off ordering something else. Another server gave my mom a dirty look when she requested a banchan refill. The servers basically did not want to be bothered with any questions or requests and were not hesitant to show their annoyance. Even though the food was edible, the abominable service ruined our appetites. We will not be returning and would not recommend to anyone. read more

TL;DR: Service was amazing! Food was hit or miss, but the hits were delicious! Came here for a late-ish dinner on a Sunday night and was able to snag a table. The space is rather small, so glad we went at an off time. Service was amazing! I felt like I was at my aunt/family member's house, and they were trying to feed me fat! They were so nice, attentive, and anticipated our needs before we could ask for it. FOOD: ~Dukbokki (3.5/5): good flavor and good amount of duk, but the sauce was a bit too thin/watery ~Daeji Galbi Kimchi Jjigae (3/5): Soup flavor was good, the meat had some tough pieces and some softer pieces. There was a ton of kimchi in it, but wish it was a little more braised ~Daeji dooboo kimchi (4.5/5): Our favorite dish! Loved the marinade, and the portion was huge! Would definitely come back and try some other things! read more

It's a nice little store! They make the most out of the limited space. You know the food is authentic when they still have a lot of Korean customers in a city filled with Korean restaurants.

Bon Ga is a gem. Nice, small location and the food is delicious! I eat halal, so when I go to non-halal places, I typically order like a pescatarian and/or vegetarian. The staff were so considerate of this fact and helped us (me and my friend) order based on these restrictions. They explained what the dishes were and what substitutions could be made. Truly amazing service. We ordered bibim guksoo, bibim naengmyeon, and kimchi jeon. The noodles were perfect, they had the right amount of chew without being starchy- and they were spicy in the best way. The kimchi jeon was the crispiest jeon I've ever had and it was packed with kimchi. Bon Ga has cracked the code- I don't know what code it is- but they have cracked it. I'll definitely be returning soon. read more

If you're looking for authentic and unique Korean food, I really recommend trying Bon Ga! The restaurant has pretty casual vibes and I think the owner is extremely kind and provides great service. If you're not sure what to get, try their donkatsu. It's unique because the sauce is a bit different in flavor than the typical donkatsu sauce and I really appreciate how generous they were with the portions of the food and the side dishes. My family likes to get their soondooboo and kalguksoo as well (they both just have a unique earthy kick to it because of the perilla seed powder and tastes so yummy but also healthy). read more

Bon Ga may look like an unassuming Korean restaurant in a quiet shopping center, but don't underestimate the food! I ended up coming here multiple times in just a few weeks because I couldn't stop thinking about their bossam. The most recent time I visited, we ordered a bottle of soju and they served it to us as a "slush", which was kind of like an icee made of soju. It was super refreshing and the perfect temperature, I highly recommend it! We ordered: - Dae ji bossam (6/5): This is the star of the show. The first time I came to Bon Ga, our waitress explained that their bossam is a special recipe specific to the restaurant, which is why they serve it with two types of kimchi instead of the traditional accompaniments. She even showed us how she recommends eating it, which is with the pork wrapped in a piece of cabbage kimchi and topped with a few pieces of the green onion kimchi. The pork is perfectly tender with a mild, yet rich flavor that offsets the acid of the kimchi. - Doenjang jjigae (5/5): Warm, comforting, savory, and perfectly seasoned. This was the perfect complement to the bossam. - Haemul pajeon (5/5): This seafood pancake had the perfect ratio of seafood to batter for me. Each bite had a piece of tender seafood in it, and it was so tasty I didn't even need to add any sauce. It is a very large pancake, so it would be good to split between 2-3 people depending how hungry you are. The ladies who work here are always super friendly and attentive! Last time I came, they were constantly refilling our waters and banchan and asking if everything tasted good. Sadly, both times I came the restaurant only had 1 or 2 other tables of customers. This place definitely deserves more hype! read more
