Evergreen Korean Cuisine

One of our go-to traditional Korean restaurants in the area. We usually get the galbi, bulgogi, bibimbap, and naengmyun. It has always been so good! Service is pretty good too. I appreciate the noise level too -- not too loud and it's a good place to go with family!

It was a very average experience. I wouldn't recommend if you want kbbq- there are better options in the area. The biggest disappointment was the gopchang (intestines). I ordered it after seeing a photo advertising it around the walls and on the TV. What we got looked nothing like what was being advertised. The bright side of our eating experience was that it wasn't as loud as other kbbq places; they don't play the loud kpop. We intentionally left the place not full so that we could eat elsewhere.

I came here on a Saturday night for dinner. There was no wait and I was seated quickly. Overall: Service is nice, decent food, okay prices. Seafood pancake: definitely comes in a big appetizer size to share with others. Crispy outside and has a kick to it since there's peppers inside. LA galbi: good flavor, some pieces were fatty & chewy. Tofu kimchee: comes with pork belly. Very filling and can probably share this dish with 1-2 other people especially if eating it with rice.

How did I find out about this place so late? The place feels like I wandered down the back alley of some street in Seoul! It's simple and no frills but a great place to grab some grub and some soju/beer if you should desire.The food is is no frills. Stick to the Korean bbq or more traditional foods and you won't be disappointed. I am not usually a big galbi tang girly but WOW, I wish the portion was bigger because it was delicious! The recent visit, they were PACKED! Yet servers did an excellent job letting people know that they would have to wait. A little slower but it was a full house so don't come starving because it'll be torture seeing everyone enjoying their meals while you're waiting for yours.Pop over next door to keep the party going if you should want to immerse yourself into the Korean nightlife as well...

Love the nengmyun here and my family loves the galbi (marinated short-ribs). Galbi has become quite pricey anywhere you go but they have thicker cuts of meat than other kbbq places in the area. In my experience, service can be very good or not so good. Definitely the best nengmyun I've had in the DMV.. will be back to try the stews next time.

It's a very small restaurant with a huge menu. The service was really nice. The woman made sure we were taken care of constantly checked it. Pricing was average. We had the spicy bulgogi and steamed dumplings. It was MORE than enough for 2!

I enjoyed my visit. The place is clean. Ingredients for each dish we ordered, as well as the "side" dishes were very fresh. Would definitely recommend this place to others.Staff were attentive too.Forgot to take pictures of the dishes. We ordered kalbi, pork belly, spicy squid. All SO good. Loved the sauce of the spicy squid that I took it home to add my own protein and eat more of it.

Food- very well prepared in Korean traditional way...know by first tasting the cabbage gimche.Service- one or two waitresses but they are able to handle tables of about twenty...refills quickly,Price- very reasonable compared to other Korean restaurants in Annandale.

I ordered to-go, seafood stew (해물전골). I came home and heated up to eat. And there was no seafood other than seem like leftover from the table. Majority of the content were fish guts, some squid and maybe 2 shrimps and few tofu. And yes they gave udon noodles. I have no doubt that they put together leftover food from the table and made this dish. Seasoning was awful as well. I threw them away.

6/22/23Horrible service and uncomfortable experience.Short summary:Employees rushing customer to leave early.Employees left 9:30pm when the store closed hour is 10pm (Screenshot of restaurant closed. Taken 9:45pm )Here is more detailed version:So my friends and I (total of 4) came to restaurant around 8:30pm knowing that it closes at 10pm.We were middle of eating and talking but the waitress came to our table to give in the middle of eating when it was only around 9pm. Considering it was only been like 10-15 minute to eat the hot broth food since it takes several minutes to make the food in the kitchen. It was a slow day, so there was our table and one another table. As other party table left after the few minutes we received our check, the waitress keep asking of we signed the check when we were still middle of eating.After signing the check, our table was still eat and chilling as it was early 9pm. However, the waitress keep going back and forth noticeably near our table and pressuring us leave. It was around 9:15pm when we decided to leave. As we may figure, it is wise to eat faster and talk outside due to never-ending pressure.Around 9:30pm, our group was still talking in front of restaurant, we saw the restaurant had lights off and all the employees left 30 minutes early when the restaurant should close at 10pm.As mentioned before, I took the photo around 9:45pm as evidence that the restaurant was closed after the employee rushed us to close early. I understand it was slow day and employee was tired. However, it was very unpleasant that the employee try to rush our table to leave as they try to leave 9:30pm on the dot (as most table don't accept order before 30 minutes before closing)Yes, we were the last customer but we should not be treated uncomfortably when there was plenty of time . But it was employee's decision to close early without formal notice and rushing us instead.I truly wish this does not happen to any other customers.Felt that, the employee treated more harshly to my Korean-American friends who are non-fluent friend.
