Best Korean Restaurants in Logan Circle

Everything about this restaurant was delicious and thoughtfully made. Even though Chef Edward Lee was not there in person, the Chef that was cooking did an amazing job because the food was very flavorful. This restaurant has exceeded my expectations and I am glad I did not give up on making the reservations.

Had a reservation and got seated quickly, Aalthough short staffed, the waitress took care of us quickly making sure we got water immediately and getting our food order a few minutes later. Advised that some of the fried chicken would take time but these arrived a bit sooner and all was good. Would definitely visit this location again. The food was good for the price point.

Food was very good with an interesting array of flavors. Service was okay, but live music was too loud for pleasant conversation at the table.

The food is good and the prices are reasonable but It’s very very loud. It’s a great place to take somebody you’d rather not hear talk. It’s definitely not the place you try to tell a date I love you or your spouse you want a divorce.

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.
