Mandu Lang Kimbob Eiang

I returned! Once again this place is just so awesome. Has that home feeling as the restaurant is smaller and decorated like a 아줌마's house. The workers are so sweet and attentive!! The $14 tteokbokki and kimbap combo is so worth your money and delicious. The tteokbokki comes in a very large pan and tastes just like k-market style tteokbokki. Savory with a hint of sweetness, and not too spicy-- and the kimbap tastes super fresh and is well made. I opted for cheese added to my tteokbokki as I always do for an extra charge (and they always put a lot!! So yummy). I'm so sad this place doesn't get more customers!! It's truly great and I would recommend it to anyone.

The interior of this place is small and very compact but it reminds me of a little mom and pop store I'd see in Korea. The ambiance is very Korean like which I appreciate. The food is not top tier but it's definitely better than YECHON HANDS DOWN! If you need an affordable well rounded healthy yet delicious meal. I recommend this spot for Korean food.The service is nice as well. All the workers are prompt and attentive to customers. They remind me of my grandparents and aunts in Korea.

I wanted to update my last review because I forgot to take pictures last time I came. We ordered a lot of the same stuff as last time, so read my other review for thoughts on the Seafood Pancake and Seafood Tofu Soup but overall I'm consistently impressed with the amount of seafood in the dish. They don't skim out despite having affordable prices.The banchan- I loved the sweet potato and fish cake (as you can tell from the fact we got seconds). Kimchi is also solid and a classic.Instead of the octopus this time, we ordered a spicy pork belly but a mild because we are wimps and the tofu soup was already a medium. I would say get the medium instead because the mild didn't have as much flavor as I would have liked. I expected there to be more fatty pieces of pork belly, but there was 1 or 2. This plate came out sizzling and it was good overall, but I liked the octopus even more.The person I brought with me here was also really impressed. Great restaurant, small and cozy atmosphere. This place is the real deal if you're looking for authentic Korean in Annandale.

Brought back memories of experience in Korea with a small and cozy mom-and-pop restaurant serving all the authentic Korean food options. Greeted upon entering with a smile, the restaurant offers a few tables. We opted for take-out, which was prepared fresh. Overall was a good experience; however, the cleanliness could be improved for a more comfortable and pleasant dining experience. Enjoy!

Mandu Lang Kimbob Eiang in Annandale is a hidden gem! Don't be fooled by the unassuming exterior though because the food inside is a burst of amazing flavors. Came here on a Saturday for lunch and the restaurant was packed!The side dishes are always my favorite at a Korean restaurant, and they offered a wide variety and unlimited refills! The chives dumplings looked like they were home made and have thin skins and lots of veggie filling. The spicy squid stir-fry (which also came with rice) packed a punch of flavors and heat that I absolutely loved. The Young Summer Radish Kimchi noodles are cool and refreshing on a hot summer day. The two of us were super full afterward!Highly recommend if you are looking for authentic Korean comfort food in the area!

After To Sok Jip closed down because of the recent fire, I was so sad about losing a place in Annandale that served amazing comfort Korean food for such a good price. Eating at this place filled that huge hole in my heart and is just as good as To Sok Jip, if not better! I had been to this plaza many times before but never noticed this restaurant. It's located in its own small white building with an unassuming exterior and a few tables available inside. The two of us split the chive dumplings, the stir fried squid, and the cold noodles. We found that this was the perfect amount of food for us and left feeling satisfied! I absolutely LOVED the stir fried squid and how flavorful it was, and the spiciness was pretty mild. The dumplings we got had the softest skins, and the cold noodles were perfect for a hot day outside. The staff was friendly and attentive, and I will definitely be coming back as often as I can!

This is a small mom & pop type of set up spot. When I mean small, I mean SMALL. Better than a hole in the wall. Oh my word the samgye-tang is home made. How do I know? It taste just like my mums and the soup is the same color & it makes your lips smack from the pure protein. A lot of Korean restaurants will add a floury or white powder to make it look like it's a nice pure creamy milky protein packed soup, but nah. That's fake. THIS THOUGH. this. samgye-tang. Is BOMB. they got that date. Garlic. Ginger root. Sticky rice. The mandu, oi, I can't say i hate it. I love it. It's not packed or stuffed like a turkey, which I'm used to cause my mum & grandma liked more stuff than the wrap. Though, this was delicious. Oi. And the price is so generous. If anyone made mandoo before, you know the labor and how long it takes to make a batch of 100. The spicy chicken, order it if you like spicy & flavorful. That's all I'll say.

I've to this place numerous times but the last two visits were not good, and my latest visit sealed the deal for me. Getting there is easy enough and there's free parking (which I appreciate) but with a focus on food, I'm honestly concerned. I don't expect stellar service given the type of whole-in-the-wall restaurant that it is, but still... I am fine with the atmosphere being what it is but the last two times I felt the quality of the food has declined significantly. The bon chons (little vegetable dishes) aren't the same and some of them don't taste right. While I usually get spicy pork bulgogi, I tried the cutlet and found it fine. My wife had a soup with beef and lots of vegetables, and my son had pork belly to make wraps. The sad part is when we were done, he asked for a box to take the rest. The owner literally put the plate of vegetables on his meat, took it somewhere to box it, and then didn't even pack his vegetables. So a plate on the table was on his meat that was packed. I'm questioning the cleanliness of this place and won't be back.

This place is a whole in the wall very authentic Korean place! The places ambiance was very authentic! The lady who owned the place and who served me was really nice and modified the bimbap to accommodate my dietary needs (I do not need eat red meat). The service was good! It was very fast! They give you complimentary bon chon before the meal/while waiting for the meal! All six items were good!I got the soju alcoholic korean drink which was VERY strong, I would not recommend if you are driving!I got the kimbop which was really good! It was just like sushi never had it before! I never had ttebokki before! I personally am not a fan of it but would recommend coming here to try it if you are curious!The veggie bibimap was very good! I also never had it before! She modified it to add tofu for me!I would recommend this place if you are looking for authentic experience!

A long time favorite of mine for authentic Korean food for delivery, I finally had the chance to visit in person and it was better than I expected. The ambiance is very cozy and very hole -in-the-wall mom and pop shop; it is a small space but they have efficient and very friendly service that you don't feel rushed when it gets packed! Since it was cold out, we went with their seollangtang (which is not on their actual menu but you can request it!) and their fishcake kimbob. Their seollangtang is one of the best I've had, it was incredibly rich, flavorful, nutritious, and it had hit the spot on the cold day. They are known for their kimbob and their fishcake kimbob is a classic favorite of mine time! Their banchan is very fresh -especially their kimchi. Overall one of my favorite Korean places in the area and definitely would recommend if you like authentic and delicious Korean food.
