Excellent oysters
Jens J.

Pike Kitchen is a most excellent addition to Annandale. This past week we had dinner here and will absolutely be back. You first order your meal at either one of the kiosks or with one of the staffers. Service was excellent and one of the staff (the manager?) was most cordial and helpful, including helping me figure out how to use the QR code by the door you need to access their wifi. We started with the fried oysters. These were fresh and perfect. We loved the batter crust on the oysters. Another starter we also really liked was the tteokbokki. This dish is cylindrical rice cakes in a most compelling sweet and spicy sauce. I ordered the bao buns (order contains three). You can pick your filling and I chose teriyaki and bulgogi. These were delicious and they don't stint on the meat. The spam musubi was excellent (an order comes with two). The tonkatsu bento box was also excellent. JP remarked this was the best tonkatsu pork ever. The creamy chicken ramen was pretty decent. The one thing Pike Kitchen could do to improve the ambience is to drop the music down a few notches. We can't wait to try other dishes from Pike Kitchen's massive menu.

Pike Kitchen is a newer food haul that joined the Annandale club! They have an extensive menu from different smaller restaurants who share the kitchen. They have items from poke to gimbap, sushi and even korean fried chicken. There are so many items on the menu, so there's bound to be something that you're in the mood for! -Takoyaki; 5 out of 5 - there was an octopus in every bite. Soft and delicious, would def recommend. -Korean Fried Chicken Bites: soy garlic : 4.5 out of 5. I loved it but I do think it was a bit too saucy - it paired perfectly with some white rice. -Salmon Donburi: 4 out of 5 - You do have to eat this a bit fast as the salmon as laid on top of the hot sushi rice and it makes the salmon all warm. The salmon was good and the sushi rice is ok. I probably would not order it again but it was not bad! -Pork Katsu Curry w Rice: 4 out of 5 - this meal was about $16; a pork katsu cutlet with white rice and curry. There's an option to add extra curry for $3. The whole meal definitely could have used more curry as there was a lot of rice - I don't think $3 extra for more curry is worth it but if you're ok with dropping that $3 extra then I would def do it. Pike Kitchen has plenty of indoor seating, and some outdoor bar top seating. They have a self serve water station and a utensils stand. Pike Kitchen also offers a large outdoor area that's great for hanging out with friends. They have some games set up outside and hanging fairy lights so its super cute at night. Definitely a pretty good hangout spot for the summer nights.

I ordered the bibimbap and a side of pickled veggies. I can't remember what my friend ordered, but we both thought their portions were large and their food was great. We both had to take half or more of our food home to-go. Their menu is extensive. I was a bit overwhelmed in a good way, and it took me a minute to decide on what I wanted to order. It made me want to come back to try their other dishes. This place was clean, quiet, and not busy at all when we went. For a place with this kind of menu, this cleanliness, a nice aesthetic, and a friendly staff, I wish it received more business.

BLUF: Such a great place to hang out with a group when it's not crowded. Smallish parking lot. When we went in the early afternoon on a Friday there were plenty of parking spots, but if it's super busy, not sure how easy it is to park in the front. Asian fast food is good & the prices are excellent for huge portions & menu. Beverages are yummy. A great value all around. Easy ordering & very nice & helpful staff. Worth the drive? Yes, if you're not headed there during heavy traffic. The venue is clean and has a fun vibe. A good amount of seating inside and out. Looks like there's a "backyard" area, but I didn't investigate. My chicken bites were nice & crunchy on the outside but the chicken was like jerky on the inside. Still, it tasted good but was cold when served. Fries were hot & tasty. Other meals were enjoyed by others. All fans of the lunch specials. Incredible value and perfect for lunch. Filling. So much on the menu sounded appealing. Easy to order from the large touch screen kiosk at the counter, old school menus, large colorful menu on the counter, and you can easily place an order on your smartphone. Great music to enjoy while kicking back to enjoy your meal and/or beverage. Definitely a place to try if you're nearby.

I stopped by here on my way home and ordered for to go. I ordered at the Self Serve Kiosk. Ordered Spam Shrimp Musubi, Crispy Eel Onigiri, Budaejjigae, and Lychee Reefresher. The rice for Onigiri is undercooked. I had to heat it up in the microwave to cook it more. The Budaejjigae is ok. The Spam Musubi is the best of all. Overall, the food is ok to me. The decorations are nice and I will try to come back again and try other food to see if they will be better.

Bulgogi Bibimbop
Elizabeth M.

made an online order and it was ready on time, food was delicious, and they had an expansive menu!

This place has such a long menu and so many options! I tried their bibimbop and it did not disappoint. There is plenty of seating and the staff were soo friendly! I highly recommend coming here if you're with a big group because there is something for everyone and plenty of space to chat. I can't wait to try more things from this menu!

Yuzu white peach & uji matcha strawberry
Emi V.

I came here during their grand opening and tried a few dishes: - seafood udon - spicy pork bibimbap - baos - mont blanc black sesame - iced matcha coffee - iced pistachio coffee - potato shrimp - spam musubi If I were to go back, I'd definitely get the bibimbap, potato shrimp, and spams musubi. The potato shrimp is only good fresh since it's fried, so don't recommend if it's to-go! The spam musubi is HUGE and packed to the core. It can be considered an entree! It was so fulfilling. Their iced matcha & pistachio lattes contained strong coffee, so if you're into the sweeter coffees then consider other options! There are a lot of tables, so there will always be seats available. They also offer water cups if you don't want to buy a drink. Sadly, the seafood udon was on the fishy side, so I probably wouldn't get that again even though I'm a seafood lover.

Amazing food and amazing service! Really grateful for this wonderful new spot that opened up in Annandale near us. Taking over an old spot with expansive, seating, beautiful, outdoor area, and clean. It is like a food hall, where multiple restaurant menus combined in one kitchen. A fantastic menu with something for everyone, really impressed with how well each item was executed, showing that they have mastered their craft. We got the PF Chicken Sandwich, addicting fries, edamame, and vegan bulgogi hot stone bibimbap. Everything came out fresh, hot, tasting incredible! They have a little of everything, so whatever you're craving this place well knock it out. Plenty of parking in private lot in front! Great place for large parties, especially during the summer when the beer garden opens. Beautiful spot and great food! Thank you Sang!

Bi bim bap and bulgogi kimbap.
Dan G.

Food was just average. Made decent enough but the kimbap fell apart and wasn't rolled tightly enough. It was also a bit overpriced (but what isn't these days). Fun interior. Not sure if I'd come back again. I like the variety and location just wish the food was better.

Lynda D.

Love the concept of this spot. It gives off a very food hall vibe with a lot of different menu items to choose from ranging from bibimbap, korean fried chicken, sushi, onigiri, small appetizers, etc. To even drinks like lattes and sparkling juices. This is my second time here. The staff have always been super nice and friendly. Anything you order comes with a lot of food, I always forget and have leftovers.

I've ordered Bulgogi Gimbab and it was delicious. Pike kitchen used sesame oil and it tasted so good. It was a carryout order and server was kind. It was quiet environment and had music turned on. They had a big parking lot and also had bar inside. Also have chairs outside as well.

Kimberly M.

Finally got around to trying this place. The staff was very friendly and the food came out really quick. We ordered a few things including the potato shrimp all of which was delicious especially the shrimp. Portions were very generous. This place reminds me of the variety that The Block had and was just as good if not better than The Block. The outdoor space is AMAZING. We will definitely be back again & with the kids next time as they've got a playground, other games, & picnic tables-lots of running room.

If you want to take aesthetically pleasing instagram photos that makes it look like you're in an…read moreizakaya in Japan this is your place. But if you want actually good food RUN AWAY. We went and got the AYCE premium menu (which is ridiculous that you have to choose the premium for nigiri and sashimi but whatever), and upon seating they give you a paper menu to write down your order. We got their premium box which is like $25 or $26 off of their à la cart menu and while it's super pretty to look at it was disgusting. The Wagyu was thick, slimy, and chewy and made me want to throw up. The toro had wayyyyy too much wasabi in it and felt like torture to eat. The other two pieces were ok but if I paid à la for it I'd be PISSED. The rolls and nigiri and sashimi were a mixed bag, some were okay, some were slimy, and some were just dry. The cooked food was decent but not very flavorful, my siblings favorite dish of the night was the cooked bulgogi which I found to be chewy and you guessed it, flavorless. Service left much to be desired, there's an hour 30 minute time limit on AYCE and you get four rounds total. They take your paper in the back to put in your order and don't bring it back out until all of your order has come out(which fair), but it takes about 30ish minutes per round and having to flag someone down to take your paper back is a pain. I think if they had tablets or maybe a call button that would be better? Unsure. Regardless the food quality needs a major upgrade to make it worth the price.

However, it took a while for our server to acknowledge us, even though she had passed our table several times. We decided on the AYCE menu, which allowed us to order up to 5 rounds, with premium items limited to one order. Our group only made it through 2 rounds. The food came out relatively fast, and the standouts were the chicken hibachi, popcorn shrimp, and premium sushi. The restaurant itself was pretty, trendy, and seemed like a cool place to visit, but the food was nothing too special, especially for the price. I would definitely come back and give it another try for a better experience.

I went here on a whim because I was craving ramen, but then I saw that Kajiken serves not only…read moreramen, but abura soba (a brothless noodle dish where the sauces sit at the bottom of the bowl and get mixed into the noodles). I'd heard about this style of dish before and had been wanting to try it, so of course I had to! I stopped in on a Monday in the middle of the afternoon, and there were already about 4-5 tables occupied, which I took as a good sign! As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and seated promptly. I ordered the Chicken Curry Abura Soba, and this was definitely a hit in my book! It smelled and looked so good that I dug right in as soon as it hit the table (so please excuse the picture lol). The curry flavor was rich and full, the noodles were perfectly chewy, and the chicken was crispy on the outside while still moist on the inside. At first, I only mixed everything together slightly and thought it was delicious. But once I REALLY mixed everything and got all of that sauce from the bottom incorporated throughout the noodles? Completely different flavor experience. So good! I also ordered the pork dumplings as an appetizer. I order pork dumplings pretty often when I go out, and whatever version of them Kanjiken is doing, I really enjoyed it. The texture was giving homemade...I don't know if they actually are, but that's what it gave! Either way, they were good. To drink, I had a bottle of white peach black tea, which was crisp, refreshing, and paired really well with the meal. Overall, I highly recommend Kajiken. In fact, I'm writing this review a few days later and seriously considering heading back there for dinner tonight.

Some of the dishes had an odd and an off-putting odor, and, I, luckily, stopped eating immediately. Others didn't really notice and proceeded to finish their meals. TSK TSK! Unfortunately, it ended up not being a great few days for others. Can't recommend. +OLD MEAT!

Dal Shabu Annandale is by far the best hot pot restaurant in the DMV…read more Today I went with friends to celebrate a birthday, and even in the middle of being so busy, they brought out a birthday balloon, a Choco Pie, and even sang a birthday song for us. We were all so excited and happy. The fresh vegetables and meat, japchae, tteokbokki, and finally the bingsu at the end were all so delicious. The prices are so low that I actually worried whether they could even make a profit selling it this way. In particular, the owner pays so much attention to every single customer -- she was running around drenched in sweat. Not just our table, but she went around to literally every table asking if the food was good and if anything was uncomfortable, which honestly surprised me. You don't see owners like that these days. And it's not even a small restaurant. Actually, among Koreans, word has really spread about how kind and wonderful the Dal Shabu owner is. Just last year, business was really slow. Every time I went, there were empty tables. The food felt skimpy and the servers were unfriendly too. I stopped going for a while myself. My friends had also come and stopped coming before, but they heard the word of mouth and came back, and now everyone's satisfied. All the servers have changed, the food changed to a buffet style, and they actually increased the variety of food and sauces at the sauce bar even more while keeping the prices the same -- you can really tell how much care and effort the owner is putting into every single detail. Truly, truly wonderful. I highly, highly recommend it!!!

Luckily, our table of 4 only had to wait about 5 minutes before being seated. We went with the all-you-can-eat menu for $35.99 per person. There's a whole buffet where you can grab your own noodles and vegetables, along with a sauce bar dedicated to making your own dipping sauce. Workers were constantly cleaning and refilling which left the place clean and organized. As for the meat and seafood, you mark down what you want and how much on an order card. The buffet actually has a great selection. The vegetable selection felt bigger than what you'd find at most hot pot places, and there were plenty of other fun ingredients to add to your soup. Meat quality was pretty good, though I think there are only 3 beef options to choose from. Unfortunately, the seafood was a letdown. Everything seemed to be frozen (not fresh), and the quality just wasn't there. The scallops were fishy, the clams were essentially meatless, and the fish were just mid.
