Came here for Christmas Day buffet and all of the staff were in great moods and very helpful… despite working the holiday. We really appreciated having this option so that we didn’t have tot think about cooking dinner and could just spend time together as a family. Thank you so much for a great meal!

Service started a little slow, but our server had many tables and it's a Saturday night in DC. Fine after he turned some tables. Food was excellent and came out at a nice pace. Look forward to coming back!

Be aware the restaurant adds a 20% service fee to your tab, which is NOT a gratuity for your server. Overall still a very good value with some tasty dishes. We would go back again.👍

This was a great experience. From the time we walked in until we left the staff were considerably, attentive, and extremely nice. The energy is inviting. The open kitchen was a nice addition to the experience filling the room with warmth. The menu was clearly designed with deep thought and intention. Would highly recommended.

I thought Mandu was terrific! I have eaten a fair bit of Korean food, including in Seoul, and I thought the food here stood out. Our server was helpful and attentive. I appreciated that the noise level allowed us to have an important conversation comfortably over dinner. As it happened, one of my guests forgot a backpack here. The restaurant staff went to considerable trouble to track me down and assure that he got it back. A nice grace note and consistent with the overall vibe of the place.
