TaKorean Korean Taco Grill

Was expecting the food to pack a huge punch of flavor after the worker suggested a few different things. Slightly disappointed in the overall experience of flavor of food. Everything looked great and that's mainly why we chose here for food. We got both chicken and pork bowls. The salad parts of our bowls were both kale and Kevin had the cucumber salad whihmch was honestly very yummy. The meat and rice took up the majority of the bowl and other toppings were additional charges as mentioned by the worker. They definitely knew their info and were super nice. The diakon was a nice tart taste separating our palates from the meat and smaller flavors on the salads. The lime sourcream sauce also helped slightly with the changing of flavors. Overall, we most likely won't be back for the serving size and flavor of the food. We need more flavor. Jake n kev

I've been here twice now and the Bulgogi hits the spot! This place is like a Korean Chipotle but the ingredients are super fresh and the flavors aren't muted!I've had the guak, and two build-your-own bowls: one pork and one bulgogi. Note: If you order online, it should be noted that the pork is shredded and is not spicy or bulgogi. I prefer the beef bulgogi, anyway. It's definitely worth the $2 upgrade.I like to add all the toppings, too. The cabbage slaw (kimchi-inspired, maybe?) is god but the romaine is my favorite and a nice way to get some greens in. I've only ordered ahead for pick up (parking nearby can be a mess) but every time I come in, the place is clean and very chill. The staff is always nice and my food is always ready in like under 10 minutes.Great for lunch for sure. I'll be back. A bowl will run you about $15 or so bucks depending on what you get. I recommend paying a bit more for the marinated cucumbers, too.

TaKorean has become one of my go-to spots for a quick lunch in Navy Yard. It's a great location for a fast, health-minded lunch with friends or coworkers. The format is styled like a Chipotle restaurant--you pick your style of meal, your protein, bases, sides, and sauces--with plenty of options. The flavors draw from Korean cuisine and include options like bulgogi and kimchi. Vegetarian options are available, and I really enjoyed the tofu on my latest visit. Service tends to be fast, even when the line is long. Prices are reasonable for the sizable and filling portions. There are also a few tables for indoor and outdoor seating. TaKorean is worth a stop if you're in the neighborhood.

Probably one of my go to places in Navy Yard for a tasty fulfilling lunch/dinner bowl. I usually order a bowl with White Rice (Brown Rice if I'm feeling healthy), Spiced Kale, Bulgogi Steak, extra Lime Creama, Cilantro, extra Crunchy Shallots, and GuaKamole ($2 extra). The staff is always super sweet and generous with the potions. The indoor seating and kitchen/ordered is always clean but I prefer the outdoor seating on a nice day outside.

TaKorean is a really solid spot to get lunch around the Navy Yard. What we have here is Korean style chipotle, what's not to love? If you love Korean food, you're going to love this place, great flavor, nice and helpful customer service.For me, it's just not my favorite style, i would like it to have more meat in the bowl, not that j don't love veggies, I think it just needs more meat to balance out the ratios.

Pretty solid quick serve spot. Bowl size isn't the biggest for how much you're paying but the menu offers good flavor combinations. Service was friendly. Location is decent if you're in the Yards and need something quick and easy.

This has been my staple since I moved to DC a few years ago. Their pork tacos and slaw bowls always hit, however they recently hired a girl (I don't know her name) who has messed up my order twice in a row now. I just came for my birthday reward and ordered online pick up. I asked for a bowl that included go chu pow sauce, crunchy shallots, and spiced kale and got 0/3. As I've said I've always loved this place for their fresh flavors, affordability, and presentation, but as a loyal customer it sucks that one worker has been ruining my experience. Please tell her to get it together and read the orders properly. (The photo attached is not from my recent visits.)

TaKorean is a solid option for a quick and simple work lunch in the area. While I found the food to be a bit on the bland side, it's a convenient choice for those short on time when at work. The service was great - super fast and provided recommendations!

Got this as part of a catering order - had three pork tacos with their slaw. Nice spice to add flavor and a bit of heat! The pork was tender and delicious. They were also packed full of pork. I'd come back to make my own tacos for sure!

Amazing food! Incredible service! Really super kind of genuine people who work here. The tacos were soo good! The flavor profiles and fresh ingredients tasted fantastic. Only docking off one star because my husband and I found some pieces of our beef were too chewy with fat or ligaments. If the beef quality was better or if they leave out the harder to chew pieces, then I can definitely see this going to a 5 star review status. Other than that - this is a fantastic spot for tacos with great prices ! Check out the tacos Tuesday deals!!
