I'm a vegetarian and the language barrier was definitely a slight issue, since I didn't know how to express my likes and dislikes. It wound up being a bit of an issue for my husband too, since spicy foods aggravate his respiratory system. It was a circus show. Luckily we ordered fried tofu and that was absolutely amazingly delicious! They gave me some wasabi and I was in heaven. (I like heat...) The ramen broth was not very flavorful, but the noodles and veggies were nicely cooked. Servers were kind, even with the huge birthday party in the side room. Parking was a little sketchy. No lighting along the side of the building. Restaurant was clean, as were the loos. I think I'd try them again, if only for the tofu. Did I tell you how amazing the fried tofu was?!?!

We left the dogs at the Airbnb and drove over here for some sake and ramen and everything was amazing. We were seated right away and each got a handshake ~ sake style ~ and split an order of their wings. They were cooked perfectly and were SO flavorful. We each got a ramen - I got the Momo Chicken and my husband got the Mr. Spicy. We shared a little of the broth from each so we could try them both and they were equally delicious and very filling. Our server was friendly, checked on us often, and made sure we had plenty of water. We also got a couple of their bottles to-go so we could bring them back home to share with my sister and BIL. They are located in such a neat arts district with lots of other businesses and local art outside. They have a huge patio with different seating options and there is tons of parking. If we are ever back in VA we will stop in again.

We had the tteokbokki with ramen and it was so spicy it was hardly edible. I can handle a decent amount of spice but it just tasted off. The tomato flavor was also overwhelming and tasted more like American red chili than any tteokbokki I've had before... we weren't a huge fan of this at all. My boyfriend got the bibimbap with beef. It's just okay but not memorable. Lots of veggies and virtually no rice which felt weird to us. The chicken meatballs we ordered as an appetizer came pounded flat and burnt. They were so dry they were almost inedible. The "aioli" they were served with had the consistency of water. It just would not stick to the meatballs. On the side we received a miso soup. I'm not really sure why I'm getting miso soup in a Korean restaurant... Overall I felt like the dishes were confusing, not as advertised, poorly cooked and prepared and a waste of our money. I wouldn't be back.

I don't normally get mayo on my burger but that is how they serve it, so I tried and it was great!! We were there in mid afternoon, so the market was not very busy. It was quiet and the air conditioning made it a nice respite from the 90 degree weather outside. Will definitely go back!!

FOOD / SERVICE Poke Sushi Bowl's location at Barracks is a…read moregreat place to grab a quick and solid meal. We came around 1:00 p.m. and ordered our bowls from a slightly flustered staff member. The place was on the busier side with online and in-person orders, and he seemed to be a bit overwhelmed meeting demand. We ordered to bowls to eat at the restaurant-- one house bowl and one build your own. Both were delicious, and it's great that they've still maintained the unlimited toppings deal despite limiting trends from other poke places. You could divide each bowl into one big meal or two small ones, as it was quite satisfying for one sitting. DRINKS Bubble tea, carbonated drinks, and other drinks are available for purchase, though we didn't order any this time around. ATMOSPHERE Inside the restaurant was very clean and modern, and it is very inviting as a casual place to catch up with friends over a good meal. PARKING Ample parking is available throughout the Barracks parking lots, though you might have to walk a bit depending on how busy the place is.

Another Yelper pointed out that the decor appears to be a repurposed Italian joint, but the silk flowers and wooden decor are an interesting mix, yet somehow it works. We dined in at 11:45 am and were given a menu that no longer had half of the items that appear on the Yelp page, so I was a little disappointed as I wanted a bento box - but the ramen was fantastic. I would have liked to have chosen the meat, but it came with pork, spinach, noodles, a very hearty and tasty broth, half an egg and x2 fish cake slices. I'll come back for dinner so to see if the menu changes.
