    Hot pot
    Ray C.

    Always enjoy eating lunch at Aery inside the Lotte Market on Muddy Branch Rd. Lots of Korean dishes and sushi available for order. Enough tables to accommodate approximately 36 guests. The service is always fast and friendly.

    King Salmon Roll. Delicious!
    Shelly J.

    Located inside Lotte market! I was in the mood for sushi, and saw how fresh they were. I got king salmon roll, and spicy tuna. Very tasty and fresh! My 2nd trip, I brought my guy and he got the roll with eel sauce and a huge roll with avocado in it. I forgot the name of it, but it was good. They have a small dining area, but it fills up fast. Their Korean soups are popular so that's on my list. Staff are very nice. They also have other restaurants adjacent to them. The Kbbq chicken place is good too.

    Seafood pancake
    Lee Z.

    The service was ok. The ambiance is very casual, which is set in a supermarket (Lottie) with 2 other restaurants. The sushi section belongs to the owners of Aery. The Korean dishes were average. The seafood pancake was good with a crisp batter. The Japanese chae was not bad, but not the best. The spicy pork had a different taste than most other Korean places. This was my least favorite. I will the other dishes the next time and give the other Korean place, The Palace, next to them a try. It has different types of Korean dishes. The small food court gets busy during lunch. Many of their patrons are Koreans.

    No frills, quick service restaurant. We always get the soy garlic wings and grab a dish or two to share. Usually it's a 15-20 min wait so we just roam around the market.

    I love the sushi they have there, its fresh and its soft and delicious, their miso soup is also nice and warms the soul , their service there is a 10/10 their always welcoming and they answer the phone quickly lol.

    Beef kimchi fried rice
    Fabian M.

    Was hungry for Korean near me and came here. Prices in grocery store Korean is the same as restaurants now. Gone are the days when they were cheaper alternatives. My wife got the jajang mien and I got the beef Kim chi fried rice. The jajang mien was very plain n kinda lacked flavor compared to other places. Definitely not restaurant level. Portion was good. But felt more like an instant pack then it did made to order. Kimchi fried rice was decent but also not the best compared to other places. I still feel like VA Korean food is still superior to what we can find in MOCO. Service was friendly and the place was clean - on par with other places. Hours are early to close. So check ahead.

    Have eaten here a few times and every single time, the prices have increased! For instance, a year ago, the Bulgogi Beef was $17.50. But now it is $19.99! Same with the other food items, they have all increased by $2-$3, each! Food portions have stayed pretty much the same, though. I can say that the service is quick. The sitting area is so-so, with only 3 tables available in the small store. Cold and Hot water are accessible for drinking. Today (5/29/23) was a good dine-in experience for Memorial Day after doing some grocery shopping inside Lotte. Maybe next time, try some other food items if there's an opportunity to eat at this food court again. Wish they had other Korean food entrees available, like Bibimbap, Mandu Guk, or Galbi BBQ.

    Sweet & Sour Pork
    Cynthia L.

    It's def not easy to find a good Korean place in the G-burg area, so when I was hankering for some and needed it quickly while in the area, I def couldn't resist a stop: Seafood Pancake - Had a decent amount of seafood and scallions, but could've been cooked a tad longer because it was soggy and fell apart with every piece we tried to pick up. Ja Jiang Mian - Sauce was bone cold, so it didn't seem like they cooked it right away, but rather had it pre-prepped. Overall good taste and decent amount of onions, potato, zucchini and meat in the sauce (noodles were Al dente...heyy). Pork Tang Soo Yuk- I'm not sure what I missed but they completely forgot the sweet and sour sauce, I just got fried pork with some julienned carrots & zucchini. Galbi - at $32, I was at least expecting a quality marinade and decent portions, but this was about 3-4 slices cut up into about 12 pieces to make it look like a lot. The marinade was barely there, which made us quite a bit disappointing. There was a s-ton of MSG (I get migraines from excessive MSG) and I was sure spinning after this meal. Some items seem worth it here, but most def felt overpriced for the quantity and quality we received (if we're comparing to other restaurants of this kind and style in the DMV, I'm sorry). If you're strapped for time and craving Korean, then I might go here but stick to their soups/stews and eat there, don't carryout.

    The food here is excellent. It takes 15-25 for an order. You can shop while you wait since it's located inside Lotte Mart which is a Korean grocery store. The menu is varied. Everything I've tried has been excellent and the portions are excellent. A lot of people come here just for the food when they're not even food shopping. That's how popular it is. Unlike other food stalls located inside Korean grocery stores, a lot of non-Koreans come here. The servers speak perfect English and are friendly and I think that helps non-Koreans feel more comfortable ordering food from here. The ambiance is inside-a-grocery-store ambiance.

    I needed a sushi platter at the last minute, so I tried sushi from this place for the first time. I wasn't sure about their food, but they had good reviews and reasonable prices. I don't quite remember which platter I ordered, but I was very satisfied! First, they had my platter ready in an hour and thirty minutes, and the fish seemed so fresh! The fish-to-rice ratio was perfect, and the rice was well-seasoned. I've ordered sushi platters from different nearby restaurants, but despite this being from a small restaurant in a grocery store, I loved their sushi the most! I would definitely order from this place again. Highly recommend!

    Homemade mandu
    Fred K.

    Avery is a great place to cater your next Korean food party. We hosted a dinner party of 12 and everyone just enjoyed their meal. From the tender and flavorful galbijhim, enormous amounts of chop chae, excellent homemade mandu (you have to ask Nicole for home made ones), to great pork tang so yeok (sweet and sour pork) to hae mul paejun and kimchi it was just fantastic. It was homemade like your mom or halmoni would make. Next time though I will have to add a sushi platter. It would have been the icing to a wonderful meal. For anyone looking to get Korean food catering in MoCo, this is the place to order! I've also done take out and only negative would be I wish the dining space when dining in, was a bit more inviting.

    Spicy Cabbage Short Rib Stew
    Amy S.

    This little gem is located in the Lotte Plaza Market. Turn right after walking in- very easy to find. There are plenty of parking. The staff was very pleasant and friendly. I ordered the Spicy Cabbage Short Rib stew. It was delicious but not very spicy. It came with a side of rice 3 Korean sides. I think the sides varies but this time they are kimchi, spicy pickled radish, spicy asparagus. Everything was delicious. You can also place sushi for Ichiban-Mikoshi Sushi at the samw location. I ordered the veggie combo which came with 3 rolls- all were on par. Definitely would like to return to try more items. UPDATE: I went back and ordered a few items. Just like the first time, everything was delicious. Tip: ask for extra dipping sauce for the Seafood CHIVE Pancake.

    The quality of food is very good considering it is a small eatery inside a supermarket. Side dishes are also tasty. Will come again.

The kimbap tasted fresh (would suggest the spam!), and the fried cutlet was beautifully fried, even when we broke it open to eat at home. The cold noodle was bomb! I initially wasn't thrilled they put the noodles and the broth in the same container but it was actually fine by the time we ate it at home and the noodles were exactly the right level of bouncy/chewy, the broth was still frozen in some areas (rightfully so). I can't wait to come back for the same exact order!

Boo-hoo, look around and you'll find a spot unless you're driving a yacht. Now, to the setting and the food...the setting is the way I like it. Rustic, clean, unassuming, not fancied up. Wooden privacy screens are set in between tables. (Perhaps because of Covid? Not sure.) This to me was really comfortable, didn't feel like I was stuck in a cattle car. I'm sure there's Korean BBQ here but we weren't at such a table. In fact it looked like grills had been removed from some tables and replaced with wooden covers. So nice to have that extra space because... Ordered bibimbap, bulgogi, steamed dumplings, etc. The extra side dishes I enjoy (kimchi, sprouts, etc.) were there as well. Ice tea, yadda yadda. Korean music was playing but it wasn't loud, on another screen by the kitchen I could see Family Guy. Again, not loud or intrusive. Didn't feel like they skimped on portions, there was plenty. Almost too much, wasn't sure I'd manage to finish the bulgogi but I did...mmm. Overall, this place is a nice break from other places. If you want to take someone out and just enjoy yourselves, this would be it. Perhaps a bit different when full, but still. Btw, it's been 13 years since I first went here. This week was only the second time. I totally forgot where it was or whether it was still around. So glad it is.

We enjoyed them and the entrees were both big. Today, we got the lunch special, which is a choice of entree from the lunch menu and a can of soda, all for $12.95. I got the spicy pork bowl and my partner got the teriyaki shrimp bowl. Both were delicious. I enjoyed the spiciness of my sauce, but the sauce also had a bit of sweet to it and was pretty light (some sauces are gelatinous). Same with the teriyaki. The shrimp were well prepared (there were 8 of them!) and the sauce nice and light. The server came by a couple of times to fill water glasses and I actually took some of my entree home for dinner - with the rice, it's a lot to eat. Speaking of the rice, although it's simple boiled white rice, I liked the texture and it was good.

Some of the whole chicken pieces (especially the breast) were a bit dry or had more breading than meat. But the wings we ordered were super tender, juicy, and flavorful. The included sides are pickled radish, salad, and coleslaw, which were a nice touch. They helped cut through the oiliness and paired well with the chicken. Our favorite flavor was the "sweet & spicy" wings (level 2 spice), nice kick and really tasty. The "white snow" flavor was sweet and powdery (kind of like sweet cheddar), not my thing but my friends enjoyed it. The menu was a bit hard to understand at first and felt a little overwhelming to navigate. Took us a few minutes to figure out how to order. Servicewise, the food came out in waves. We got fries and one half chicken first, then the rest of the food and drinks about 20 minutes later. Not a huge issue, but it would've been better if fries and drinks came out first. Overall, fun vibes and cute decor. I'd come back for drinks and wings with friends. Bonus: there's a cute free photo booth in the back of the restaurant near the bathroom.
