Food: I tried Gaji Bokum & Dak Jjim. They both were well seasoned and delicious. Dak jjim is a bit spicy. Just a heads up. ;) Service: I received an incorrect order by an accident, and when I went back, they fixed the mistake quickly. Staff were friendly even though I arrived there after their closing hour. Ambiance: there is a bar area, left side when entered the restaurant, and a dining area on the right. Both parts are well spaced out to have a meal comfortably.
I've been to Mandu a few times over the years and I'm sorry to say my most recent visit didn't hit the mark. I visited on a Friday around 6:30 PM and sat at the bar to catch the end of happy hour (Mon-Sun 5-7 PM). The bar was empty at the time, but a few other people showed up later. The dining room had a handful of tables occupied. In short, easy to get a seat. Drinks were good. I like the Somaek ($6) which is a small beer and a shot of soju. Beer ($7) was beer. We got some beef and pork mandu (dumplings) that were pretty good. 6 pieces for $10 on HH. We got two entrees, the Ddukbokgi ($28) and Yukgaejang ($29), which came with four banchan. Ddukbokgi is chewy rice cakes, gochujang, onion, and bulgogi. We thought it was only ok -- we've had better, including at Mandu in the past. Yukgaejang was a new dish for me. The menu described it as a "spicy beef stew, brisket, noodles, shiitake, bean sprouts, and egg." I expected the brisket to be sliced and recognizably brisket, but it was pulled -- it looked and tasted more like pulled pork. The dish also didn't have any noodles in it. I didn't like it. The banchan was seaweed, bean sprouts, kimchi, and cucumbers. It was okay. Service at the bar was fine.
I went to Mandu during their HH. Their HH assortment had the right stuff I was going for - Mandu, sliders, drinks all at affordable prices. When the food came, it was above average in my opinion. I think I wouldn't come back for their HH items but their actual entrees. What sealed the deal for me is the quality of service. It was empty when I walked in, but enjoyed conversing with the bartender and we both shared our go to places within DC. Despite the quiet environment, I'm glad I had company to talk to.
Decided to try some Korean food here while visiting DC area. Unfortunately, I forgot got to take photos od the KFC appetizer and Kimchi Bokum Bap that I ordered. Both were delicious and portion size was generous. And the side dishes of cucumbers, kimchi, bean sprouts and seaweed that accompanied the main dish were great. The atmosphere here was nice, and staff friendly, attentive and helpful with my menu questions. Overall, my experience was very good.
I didn't know much about Korean food before this spot, so I just ordered what I heard was popular ( Jajangmyeon, and chicken dumplings, and the pancakes). Everything was fantastic and made me obsessed with Korean cuisine. The dumplings were the perfect balance of fried, meaty, tender, and not too oily. The noodles were a completely new thing for my taste pallette (so many new seafood) but I really enjoyed it!
There are a lot of constraints when it comes to making authentic food in DC, so I think Mandu accomplishes in bringing a lot of Korean flavors to the table. There is an elevated element to the restaurant in terms of plating and ingredient range, so this also becomes evident in the price and some of the dish choices. My concensus is that it was okay for Korean food, but one of the better restaurants for American audiences to try. Pa Jeon arrived on a sizzling plate, which wouldn't be my first choice since it's a dish where you have to cut the pancake and risk burning yourself. The pancake we received had a good seafood flavor, but there weren't a lot of indistinguishable seafood pieces to find. The overall mouthfeel of eating the pancake was a bit chewy to rubbery which enhanced the soft just-cooked batter in the middle. The choice to use sliced scallions makes the dish more akin to a familiar savoy pancake- okonomiyaki. In staying true to distinguishing this as a Korean restaurant, I would suggest cutting the scallions into matchsticks for better presentation and to liken their techniques to match Korean cuisine better. Pa Jeon is a difficult dish to pull off even though it's a common appetizer. Despite being on the sizzling plate, it was not crispy. The thickness of the pancake is a good indicator of how well the maker understands what Pa Jeon is supposed to be, where the batter is a thin, crispy, and simply fills the gap of the toppings to hold it together. Poached Pear Salad we received was very small. The poached pear, but it was waterlogged, and cut too large so it would fall to the bottom of the salad. The addition of raw daikon slices offered a crispy and fresh bite. I was interested in the unique leaf ingredients like perilla and radicchio, but it was lost since the daikon slices dominated the salad portion of the dish.The dish is topped with popped black rice, but in our case, the rice kernels were barely popped so it felt like we were just eating raw uncooked purple rice. The dressing leaned quite acidic would have likely paired better meats or heavy stews. I wouldn't suggest it to be a stand-alone salad. Yukgaejang was a favorite soup, all the toppings paired well together and the broth was thin enough to share amongst guests. The meat was tender and evidently shredded in the dish. Very comforting. And while I appreciate the overall flavor of the Gamjatang. Notably, the meat was tender and it was easy to remove the meat from the pork bones. However, the potatoes of the soup had broken down too far into the dish so it was more or less a stew, or a very flavorful paste. This is probably from the starches gradually thickening up the soup if they batch-prepared this dish. To break down the banchan, Seaweed salad was a table favorite. Seaweed can easily turn soft, but this was served cold and retained its firm texture while being well-dressed in a combination of sesame and garlic. We were told kimchi was made in house, but we received an old batch so it was quite sour. Bean sprouts were a bit too waterlogged to retain the seasonings so it seems to have sunk to the bottom, but crunch is there. Cucumbers were simply pickled, the gochugaru that coats them didn't add any spice or distinct flavor profile. Overall, these were refreshing bites to take inbetween and pair with other dishes. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. They made sure to explain each dish and check up on our waters. The overall vibe of the restaurant is also quite great, it mixes a lot of modern pieces and fixtures so it's definitely communicated that this is an elevated Korean restaurant.
Cute, clean, and chic Korean venue with authentic Korean food in the heart of Washington DC. Vacationing out here with parents who came out from Korea. Let me tell you this place is a legit Korean restaurant approved by my parents We had the following three dishes: 1. Dduk Mandu guk: rice cake and dumpling soup (beef based broth) that was garnished with green onion and egg strips. This is a dish we usually have on New Year's Day. 2. Yukgaejang: spicy beef broth boiled hot with onions , green onion strips, and clear noodles. Sooo delicious. 3. Soon dobuw(spicy tofu soup: better than bcd. Spicy tofu soup with seafood. Overall a 5 across the board for food quality, portions, and service. Highly recommend this place to Korean natives looking for authentic Korean food to satisfy craving and to others that may be looking to try good Korean food.
The service was attentive and the ambiance was very warm and inviting, but the food definitely left something to be desired. The seafood pajeon was way too soft and not crispy at all, the dipping sauce made up for it, but the texture was definitely not what I was expecting. Also got the sundubu and the Korean fried chicken and both were just so mid. Works in a pinch but I think if you look around a little more you can probably find better Korean food elsewhere.
Happy hour sojutinis were fantastic here! Mandu is a Korean restaurant located in DC's Chinatown. We came here for their happy hour, and we had to sit at the bar to both order and eat/drink to get the deals. The service at the bar was very good, and I think it was partly because we were the only ones seated there. We ordered the mandu, which is a plate of six dumplings with your choice of filling. We chose shrimp, and these were tasty. The other appetizer we ordered was the pa jeon, which is a seafood scallion pancake. This was sooooo good, and I wish it were bigger. For our entree, we shared the dolsot bibimbap. I felt like the ratio of ingredients was a bit off in the bibimbap. While I really enjoy vegetables, it felt like there wasn't enough rice compared to the volume of vegetables, which would be an easy fix. We shared these three dishes amongst the two of us, and we could not finish it all. The sojutinis were strong and good drinks. My friend and I both liked the yogurt sojutini the most. The aloe one tasted the strongest as the aloe flavour couldn't mask the taste of the alcohol that well. I also had the peach sojutini, which was strong as well.
I was very excited to try Mandu after reading the reviews! We made a reservation for a party 5 about a week in advance. The food was delicious. We started with some appetizers, including the KFC, assorted dumplings and the seafood pancake. Everyone especially loved the pancake. It was delicious and flavorful. The fried chicken was spicy and sweet. Everything we tried was awesome! I am also a big fan of the pickled cucumbers and bean sprouts that they bring out for everyone to share! The kimchi was great, as well. For my main, I had the Yukgaejang (spicy beef stew with noodles). It came out sizzling and I had to wait for it to cool off to eat it. It was delicious and very filling. The portions are generous. My favorite thing I tried was the Duru jjigee. It was a platter with pork, tofu, chewy rice cakes and veggies. This was the star of the show. I'm so happy we tried Mandu. The food was great! The service was attentive. There were not any long waits. It was overall 5/5.
Another amazing meal here!! We all got sojutinis (highly recommend the yogurt flavor), and split food among the table. The fried chicken is AMAZING and we also split the beef pork pan friend dumplings, rice porridge, and then got ddukbokgi to split. Great amount of food for three people and it was delicious! Repeat visit here so we're big fans! Love the yogurt sojutini, fried chicken and would probably try some other things on next visit otherwise but those would repeat over and over again!
Hefty prices for okay Korean food and slightly larger-than-normal portions. Dishes came out slowly, but our waiter was incredibly friendly and attentive. I liked the KFC the most - It's satisfyingly crunchy with a yummy sweet and savory glaze. The restaurant is a bit small, so def make a reservation if you have a large group.
Mandu is one of my favorite places in DC but it is certainly for a pretty penny. I also think there are better places in Annandale if you can get out there. For DC Korean food, I feel like this is pretty good. Some of our favorite dishes: duru jjigee, soon doobu, galbi jjim. All of our favorite dishes are pretty flavorful. The duru jjigee and galbi Jim are so flavorful and the meat is soo tender, I recommend! The soon doobu is very comforting but isn't as flavorful as other soon doobus. The banchan, mandu, and seafood pancake is just okay if you are feeling it. The restaurant has limited seating especially as they follow covid regulations. Definitely make reservations or go during less busy times. read more
Sorry. Wasn't a fan. I think what was off putting was the perceived cleanliness overall. Definitely needs an overhaul/refresh interior wise. Food was ok but pretty overall meh. Portions were huge but didn't matter because after a few bites, I wasn't dying for the next bite. Maybe it was an off night for them? I'll have to give them another try as it's hard to believe they have such high ratings based on my one time experience. read more

i had a great meal here! they have fantastic and authentic korean food (all of the appetizers were our favorites), a good selection of noodles and entrees, and a really lovely staff! the place is on the smaller side but not often super busy so i'd recommend making a reservation but it seems like they have space for walk-in's too. the Mandu and KFC (korean fried chicken wings) were my favorite items! the Bulgogi was also really fantastic! it's spicy and a really large portion. the Saewoo Bokum (spicy noodles with shrimp) was also great (the shrimp wasn't my favorite but the actual noodles/sauce were very flavorful)! read more

upon arrival the staff is super welcoming with smiles (loved it). very cute intimate spot. as soon as seated our server had waters on the table. was also very grateful for his attention to us && dietary restrictions mentioned in when acquiring about a dish substitutions but not actually saying. my girlfriend said the chicken wings were bomb. i got the veggie mandu fried && they were packed && meaty. for my dish I tried something different but really enjoyed it ! dessert was highlight od the meal though! the croiffle was out this world. almost had to get one to go! i will be back for that && the fresh gnger beer. thank you for a great dinner! read more
Having dinner w some friends who made the reservation here The service was great- there were a lot of mosquitos- they even provided DEET sprays However, the food is less desiring... to me, they are pretty subpar especially for the price they charge.. 3 of us ate 2 starter, 2 entry, 2 drinks- it was almost $180 dollars.. I find it kind of ridiculously expensive We were the only Asians, including the staff in the entire restaurant read more

Shoutout to our local community heroes! Brittany took great care of us! She is a beautiful soul! She is attentive, friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. I enjoyed her service. The food and drinks came out nice and steady. Refreshing and crisp soju, crispy seafood pancake, and yummy banchan (side dishes): seaweed, cucumbers, bean sprouts kimchi, and radish. Hubby ordered the special short ribs! Decadent and rich! A hearty stew! And I ordered the Kimchi stew (Kimchi-jjigae) . It had a deep, rich all day stewing taste! Not spicy enough for me, but Brittany was nice enough to bring me some extra gochujang... just a little bit or it gets too salty. We left bellies full and all our Foodie senses satisfied!!! Bravo ! read more

Near Chinatown, an unexpected surprise in a decent Korean restaurant. Make reservations if you can on a Friday or weekend dinner. Even walking in at 5:30 for 2 we had to sit at the bar Ambiance: casual, table top seating and bar/bench seating. It looked like there would be outdoor seating available in the warmer months. Family friendly. Food: they have the usual dishes people like kimchi stew, pancakes and bbq meat. Not a BBQ set up where you grill your own meat but rather dishes come cooked and plated for you. So depending on if you want the BBQ experience or want to skip the process, that would be a consideration before coming. The fried chicken appetizer is delicious and the portions are generous with the Galbi and the Bulgogi. There's also happy hour from 5-7 pm. Service: we have been twice and sat at the bar and also came as a group of 4 and sat at a table. Friendly bartender and servers. Great service Likelihood to return: 10/10 read more
thanks to my bestie boos for the giftcard to Mandu to continue my Korean food obsession - legally obligated to get ddukbokgi if it's on a menu and I was immediately a fan of this dish when it came out loaded with veggies and sauce. the rice cakes were large and perfectly soft yet chewy. - notice how I said loaded with veggies (shoutout the mushrooms like since when do mushrooms have that much non sauce flavor?) and sauce, the meat was absolutely not matching the portion size .... maybe two chunks of bulgogi - the second dish of the evening was yukgaejang which was the "spicy" beef stew. it came out literally bubbling hot and stayed steaming while we ate the other dish - this dish wasn't spicy at all and once again actually barely any meat for $28. however once again the vegetables were to die for and the general portion was perfect. - actual restaurant space has serious potential to be super aesthetic and nice but they were not living to the potential. cool bar and wall but seemed carelessly put together like when you walk in it could be a take out spot read more

Came here for dinner after work with a few coworkers. We were immediately sat when we arrived for our reservation. It was 7 of us in our party. It was a small restaurant but I appreciated that there was a decent amount of space between tables. We were given water and the opportunity to look through the menu. The waiter was very attentive and moved quickly! Since i had eaten a big lunch, here at Mandu I ordered the KFC and a sojutini. The chicken was so crispy!! I wish I would've asked for the sauce on the side and dipped the wings instead of having the sauce dressed on the chicken. The wings were big and juicy, i even had some leftover. My drink was also good and simple. I also appreciated that we were able to pay quickly via the QR code on the receipt. Go here if you have a taste for Korean or want to try something new! They had authentic menu items. read more

Don't go. It's not worth your money. All the food is too salty and overpriced. It's very disappointing the quality of food for that much money. Nothing special but the tasted worse. read more
Lovely! We got the restaurant week special which was a little bit of everything! Braised pork, rice, rice cake soup, dumplings, zucchini salad, seaweed salad, kimchi, bean sprouts.... Everything was fresh, hot, crunchy, flavorful and rich. Our server was friendly and quiet, we had a lot of chatting to do and he was very patient to let us catch up during our meal, and after! The space is hip but casual, very comfortable. My only complaint is that the kimchi is not spicy enough but I understand they can't make it unpalatable for others... We ended with a croissant waffle with cream and strawberries on top! What a genius dessert! I'd love to come back for more and other menu options too. read more

We dropped by here for a quick bite while exploring Downtown D.C. I loved the decor, and the customer service was great! The menu isn't as vast as some of the other Korean restaurants I've dined at, but they do have many of the main Korean staple foods. My favorite was the Dakkochi, which are grilled chicken skewers. The meat was juicy and flavorful! read more

Very solid Korean food, especially for the area, which is lacking in Korean cuisine. The prices are on the higher side, but the portions are at least larger than normal portions at other Korean restaurants. I've visited twice now - first time I ordered soondubu, and the second time dduk mandu guk. Both were delicious, hearty, and satisfying. I love their banchan as well! The servers were very attentive, and my food came out pretty quickly, mostly because I ate here on the weekdays. Despite the prices, I still highly recommend dining here! read more
My fiancé and I went out to Mandu for date night and truly enjoyed it. I thought the ambiance was nice but I had a false perspective of what my experience would be like. The KFC Wings were good. My fiancé and truly enjoyed our food. This restaurants was list as number 1 from 2 other Korean restaurants in dc. Although I enjoyed it I do not think it's better than Anjufrc. The restaurant setting/decor plays into my opinion. read more

Date: 12/2020 & 1/15/2023 For the first time going here I went in 12/2020 and the food was pretty good, I recall ordering the Dduk Mandu Guk and asking for rice as well which was pretty funny as well to laugh about during because Dduk Mandu Guk is essentially rice and I ordered additional rice equaling to a ton of carbs hahahaha, but the waiter was nice about it (can't remember his name). Second time I went here on 1/15/2023 with some friends for a birthday celebration and ordered the Ddukbokgi which was way too good for what I was expecting! I ate all of it as was extremely satisfied. The banchan/sides is not up to the standards of the other korean restaurants when comparing to NoVA, but nonetheless did its job. Would definitely go here again and during restaurant week because we missed it by a day LOL. read more

I was craving some traditional Korean food and ordered vegetable mandu and bulgogi with ssams. The mandu was nothing special, but the bulgogi was full of flavor and the ssams were delicious. The veggies (zucchini, bell pepper, onion) I don't think were needed but were a nice add. When I'm in the need for some gochujang and ssams again, I'll visit this spot again. read more
Coming from someone who is half-Korean and grew up living with my Korean Grandmother, I was very surprised. Starting off, we made a reservation which I don't think you necessarily NEED, but would do just to be safe. It definitely wasn't as busy as they made it seem over the phone, but maybe it was an off-night. We got there on time and waited at the bar to get our table. The bartender was so helpful and described the drinks perfectly; she described the Easy Come, Easy Grow as "spring herby" and it was so true. The Mandu Mule was really gingery, but good! We also tried the No Way Rose, which I wouldn't recommend. The Korean Fried Chicken was really crispy, but I think the sauce was a bit soy sauce heavy. There's definitely better Korean fried chicken out there, but the CRONCH was real satisfying. The Gamjatang was okay, it's one of my all time favorite Korean soups, but it seemed to thick of a broth and lacked a little flavor. The Galbi was extremely good and tasted just like my Grandma's. I was surprised by the ssam, I did not expect the kkaennip (perilla leaves) to be included. The grilled veggies were okay, but there was a lot of meat on the plate which was really nice. Service was amazing and I appreciated our waiter being so friendly and attentive. It was also nice to see that he really made an effort to learn the names and backgrounds of the dishes. read more

The two of us split an app and an entree. With the addition of the complimentary banchan, it was the perfect amount for us! Mandu: we got half veggie, half beef+pork, fried. I personally liked the beef+pork the most but husband liked the veggie more. Duru jjigee: delicious and solidly spicy! Food came super quickly. Overall, very pleased with our meal! read more

Great service and great food. But short hours, 5-9PM everyday. I've had Mandu in person and delivered to my house. read more
This place is perfect for soup lovers and bibimbaps. I shared few appetizers with my mom and then we also shared an entree, keep in mind that the entrees are pretty shareable, my food was delicious and service was fast. They make their own kimichi, it's a must to try, now that the weather is getting colder I will be coming here more often. read more
Mandu is right next to my sister's house and I ask to eat there almost every time I visit. Every time I've gone the meal has hit all the flavor combinations that I could look for -- meaty and hearty, fresh and acidic, sweet and chewy. I truly think everything is delicious and I am always think about ordering more banchan. My favorite is their JyaJang Myan! read more
On the way to Mandu for our outdoor seating reservation, and it started to rain. No matter - they have tents covering their outdoor seating!! Good thing because it didn't stop raining all night. We ordered every appetizer, some twice, for our party of five. Each dish had its characteristic flavor and was delicious. My only quibble is with the Muk Muchim, the acorn and mung bean jelly with baby kale, soy sesame dressing -- the jellies were tiny and covered by the salad. It tasted fine, but I expected larger globs of the jellies. Still, this is a quality restaurant with good flavors. Not easy for a restaurant serving up modern Korean. Give it a try! read more
Our cousin recommended this place as one of his favorite spots for Korean food (he lived there for a while), and after our meal, we understood why! The atmosphere is lively and bright. The service was present, but not lingering. There are many options for drinks, but I decided on the Mango Sojutini and liked it so much I had two of them. We started with a few things to share, and it all was devoured. We had Mandu, which is dumplings. If you check out my pictures, the left side of our Mandus are boiled, and the right ones are fried. The round ones are shrimp, green veggie, then beef with pork. I am glad we did a taste test of the boiled and fried. While they were all very delicious, I preferred the boiled veggie and fried shrimp, the guys liked the fried beef with pork. Along with the Mandus, we had the Pa Jeon to begin our meal. Pa Jeon is a seafood and scallion pancake. For my main dish, I had the Dolsot Bibim Bap with tofu. If you are a vegetarian, then there are plenty of options for you to enjoy. I love ordering dishes that are in the hot stone bowl so you can let the rice get crispy with the heat of the container. It was delectable. I ate every bite. As with many Korean restaurants, there were the extras that come with all your meals were kimchi, cucumbers, veggies with sesame, tofu, sprouts, and then something I forgot to ask what it was. My cousin got his favorite dish, the Bulgogi which is grilled slices of marinated ribeye read more
So I came here like 8 years ago when I moved here and I think they were at another location. I remembered that 1) I'd never had Korean food so early in the day, 2) it was very affordable, and 3) it was delicious! Finally came back (I figured it'd be good if it's still here)... and I felt the same way. You get sooo much food with the brunch option. And it's just the way I like it: a little bit of everything. I think I loved everything in it - although I didn't care much for the sushi (not sure if that's what they call it). Great spot, lots of seating, good service, very reasonable prices, and yummy food! read more

A couple caveats first - this was my first time trying and it was delivery so can't speak to the restaurant experience or consistency. That being said I found it absolutely delicious. Kimchi jjigae was filled with kimchi, I think both Napa and green onion? Great chunks of tender, fatty beef and while I could've used a bit more tofu the tofu was really fresh. I also ordered the dak jjim. Was worried at first because it appeared maybe too soupy and oily. Turns out I was wrong. It's lightly sweet from the potatoes which were quite tender. The chicken was thigh meat, juicy and also a lightly sweet. There was a kick to it but in my opinion it was well balanced. Lastly every order comes with a small four set banchan. That seaweed muchim. Yes. The only ding I have was it is a bit expensive. Portion sizes are good however $20/entree for delivery is a tough one to swallow. I did rationalize by saying I could get 2-3 meals out of it though :). Looking forward to trying dine-in! read more

Met a friend for happy hour (HH) after work on a rainy weekday. The bar area started empty but quickly filled up. There are both drink and food HH specials. I started with the Mandu three ways veggie, shrimp, and beef/pork. That was my preference worst to best. All were good but I liked the beef/pork best. I got them pan fried. You can also get them steamed. They are known for their Korean chicken but I got a tip that they make it in a chicken sandwich. Yummy!! That is the way to go! The service was quick and very friendly. Great place for a HH- I highly recommend it! read more

Decent Korean food, but quite pricey. Because of COVID, they didn't have their normal menu, so make sure to go to their website to find their most updated offerings. I initially wanted just some good old spicy pork, but they didn't have that so I settled on dduk bok gi. It was pretty good but had mushrooms in it (?) and no fish cakes (which is one of my favorite parts!). Still, it did have a good spicy flavor but overall nothing special. My takeout order also came with banchan, all of which was pretty good helped balance out my heavier main dish! read more

I've enjoyed Korean food at a few different places around town but mostly the Korean BBQ/buffet type places so I wasn't totally sure what to expect here. This place has the feel of a nicer DC bar/restaurant and the service is very prompt and friendly. They have happy hour specials until 7pm on the weeknights and I took advantage by trying a peach sojutini (a must try if you enjoy anything peach as I do) and the pan fried beef and pork dumplings (very tasty and worth a try). My main course was the Galbi (marinated and grilled bone-in beef short ribs) with grilled zucchini and sides (bean sprouts, kimchi, sweet potato and fish). The short rib was excellent though a bit fatty in places and the lettuce wraps they provided made for enjoyable wraps using some of the meat, zucchini, and sides. Portions are large here and I left full but not uncomfortably so. I enjoyed my meal here and would check this place out again. read more
