The QUI Korean BBQ & Bar

All you can eat Korean BBQ?! Sign me up!!! Came here with my cousins and despite the 90 minute time limit, we walked out of here STUFFED. The menu has a lot of great options, but we enjoyed our dinner and ordered a variety of meats and seafood (squid and shrimp). Highly recommend coming here and for the price, you cannot walk out hungry!

I remember those days when I had to drive an hour to Annandale to get really, good KBBQ at places like Kogiya. I'm glad I no longer have to drive that far! Qui is so close to me and it's as good as it gets. I have a feeling the Chateau next door and Qui are owned by the same owner because the décor here is also spectacular just like Chateau. It has its own character though. The massive pipe light work on the wall is quite an industrial statement. The best KBBQ places are set apart by the quality of their meat. I don't think you can get any better level of meat than what Qui offers except maybe Wagyu and Kobe in Japan. Qui has multiple options. An unlimited buffet option with some basic meats, another unlimited buffet option with meats plus seafood, and then a non-buffet set of selected meats. You cannot order single dishes. We always go with the basic buffet option. Beef brisket is always our first choice to ease into it. We also quite like garlic pork belly and chicken. We don't usually order chicken at a KBBQ place but the chicken here tastes quite good so we always get it at least once. Don't forget to order the side dishes too! The egg, the soup, and the rice cakes! Yum!The crowd is not predictable in my experience. Sometimes, we came on Fridays and weekends expecting an hour's wait, but there was no wait. Sometimes, an hour's wait is pretty standard. Once you get seats though, you're well taken care of because the staff works fast!

This AYCE korean bbq is right next to my house so i HAVE to try it. First of, the parking is plenty in the back but a little tight in the front of the restaurant! We were seated after 10 minutes (we stopped by for lunch) and they weren't crowded. They had maybe 2 servers when we were there. Food came out within 5 minutes but it did took them a bit to take our order. I had requested the lettuce platter and it was $5 extra .The brisket here was pretty unseasoned so make its perfect with the sauce. We also tried chicken masala and it's perfectly seasoned. AYCE price is $36 which is pretty decent! The ambiance was big and not too overwhelming and lots of space. I would recommend this place for korean bbq craving day!

I'm sorry to say I haven't previously had much experience with Korean BBQ. But I'm also glad to have had dinner here as a first experience. The food was quite tasty, and the atmosphere was casual and friendly. I think our server was very new, just based on having to get answers to a couple of questions. But he also grilled and prepared all the meats for us. In fact the only "hands on" we had to do for our dinner was peeling the shrimp. The "basic" selections. The specialty cocktails were interesting and eye-appealing, but the house cocktails were made just as well and several dollars cheaper. A few things could have been better. Your table comes with an assortment of sides, which, to my pleasure, included kimchi. But it was room temperature, which to me makes it much less palatable. The standard meats can have a bit of gristle, chew, fat, etc., so you may want to spend the $$ for a premium meat to be included. Your all-you-can-eat experience is 90 minutes, and it would be nice if your server gave you a head's up about it, rather than just abruptly dropping the check on the table. But these are little things. The overall experience was quite enjoyable.

FOODWe had their regular AYCE option for a table of 9 right when it opened. The range of options was really good for the price range, and the 90 minute limit was a lot more than I thought.*Thin-sliced brisket: 7/10*Beef bulgogi: 10/10, so juicy and flavorful!*Orange beef bulgogi: 3/10; juicy and flavorful but the orange aftertaste was a little too strong for me*Spicy beef bulgogi: 8/10*Top blade steak: 7/10*Honey butter squid: 7/10*Shrimp: 5/10DRINKSThey have an array of soft drinks and signature cocktails available.SERVICEThe staff are kind and friendly! Our server was really accommodating for not only our table but also for the myriad around us as well.AMBIANCEThe high ceilings inside the restaurant make for a roomy experience. The smoke can get in your face so I did wish there was an exhaust fan by the table.PARKINGAmple parking is available in the lot behind the store.

NOVA has tough competition for AYCE K-BBQ, and the Qui did not disappoint. First off, the meat portions are really large. Our server was incredibly friendly and checked on us/the meats very frequently. The hot sides are all included, and none will be brought out unless you specifically ask for them. Knowing that we were first timers, that is the only thing I wished our waiter warned us about. Otherwise, the meats are not seasoned, but obviously there is always sauces. Go for the thin brisket and the classic bulgogi, if you are a novice like me, and you will not be disappointed. 90 minute seating limit wasn't even an issue for us. Enjoyed the industrial vibe and good distance with even the adjacent table. Solid option in the area and good price.

Came here on a Friday evening at 7 expecting there to be at least a 30 minute wait, but it was less than 10 minutes. Service was also very friendly and prompt right as our group entered.Once we were seated, all our sauces and side dishes and a pitcher of water were already on the table which was nice. We were able to order right away and barely waited for all our meats as well. You have to request sesame oil if you want the sesame oil dip for the bbq by the way.Our server was super attentive and cooked all of our meats for us and distributed them to each person as well.Overall, our table had a great experience! Would definitely return with different groups of people too.

This space is huge. They have plenty of parking. We didn't have to wait to be sat down but this was late in the evening. We got the ayce. We got both the pork and beef bulgogi. The honey squid is just the tentacles you're eating . I really liked the top blade steak. The brisket was overcooked to the point that it was crispy like a bacon. It's not my favorite Korean bbq place.

Service is great, but the seating for a group of 6 split between one grill was a little chaotic, especially when we arrived starving. The price point is fair, and it's cool that seafood gets included. We pretty much tried every protein available, but our favorites included: thin-sliced brisket because it cooks quick and goes great with sauce, thin-sliced pork belly, and spicy pork belly. Our favorite side was the fried rice cake! The corn cheese came in small little foil cups that seemed to be portioned out for individual servings. The industrial decor inside makes it look pretty cool. The lighting is alright, and it's a fun time with a group to enjoy a meal. 1 grill for 6 people was crazy, and we ended up eating more rice than meat due to being absolutely hungry though.

My all time favorite kbbq spot is The Qui in Chantilly! The quality of meats is always very good, and I love the AYCE options! The service this time was ok, hence the 4 stars. Our waiter was very absent and we cooked all the meats ourselves. I love their banchan, with pickled onions and cucumbers, kimchi, salad with peanut sauce, pink daikon, potato salad, cold sesame broccoli ! We ordered seconds of all!! When we ordered squid, it came in a container and we were unsure how to cook it. When we asked for guidance, he looked at us strangely and told us to put it on the grill. We had it going in the container the whole time bc it looked like it would cook like cheesy corn.The ambience was good, we can closer to 5:30, and it wasn't too crowded. We didn't wait long. They do have a 90 minute dining in restriction but that was enough time to eat!
