visited today and had a good time! The service was friendly and I really loved the interior, it was modern and clean! The food was good too, especially their shrimp and chicken dishes! They had this lemon shrimp dish that was FIRE as well as their lo mein. Their lychee ade drink was like amazing, would come back here again for sure! read more

I really like this place! Have you ever been to this all-you-can-eat Chinese restaurant? To be honest, I think the jjajangmyeon (black bean noodles) is even better than the jjambbong (spicy seafood noodle soup). You can enjoy the all-you-can-eat option, or you can simply order individual dishes if you prefer. They also have plenty of spacious tables, so it's a great place to come with friends or family. Definitely give it a try! read more

I actually like haoru in centreville and was expecting the dishes to taste basically the same and just has the fun of AYCE maybe it was just an off day but everything we got tasted like a worse version of what we usually get at haoru Tangsuyuk - sauce was good but pork was very dry 3/10 Mapo tofu - not spicy and very bland 2.5/10 Jajjangmyun - this was still pretty good but lacking in flavor a bit 5/10 Jambbong - had potential to be good with incredibly Smokey flavor. But it was really watery so I felt like I'm just eating watery spicy smoke 2/10 read more

Northern Virginia's Hidden Gem for Korean-Chinese Cuisine If you haven't discovered Hao by Haoru in Chantilly yet, you're missing out on one of the most satisfying and unique dining experiences in all of Northern Virginia. This place serves Korean-Chinese cuisine -- a beloved fusion that's been popular in Korea for generations but is surprisingly hard to find done well in the DMV area -- and they absolutely nail it. Everything here is wok-fired and made fresh to order , and you can taste the difference. We started with the jajangmyeon -- thick noodles coated in a deep, savory black bean sauce -- and it was the real deal. Rich, comforting, and not overly heavy. We also tried the jjamppong (spicy seafood noodle soup), which had a beautifully complex broth with just the right level of heat that builds slowly and keeps you coming back for more. The crispy deep-fried options are golden and bursting with flavor -- we ordered the shrimp and could not stop eating them. The combo sets are a smart choice if you're visiting for the first time, letting you sample multiple dishes without the decision fatigue. The menu is a harmonious blend of bold Korean flavors intertwined with savory, umami-packed Chinese cooking -- it's the kind of food that feels both familiar and exciting at the same time. The space is casual and welcoming, service is friendly and efficient, and the prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes and quality you're getting. Whether you're a longtime fan of Korean-Chinese food or trying it for the very first time, Hao by Haoru is the place to go. Easily one of the best restaurants in the Chantilly area. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

This place is a hidden gem. Everything is Halal. This is a Chinese Korean restaurant. The seafood cold noodles was very interesting. I have never had it before. It is a very hearty and filling dish. I loved the dumplings and the beef brisket with rice.. and of course from a Korean classic jajangmyeon - it is a noodle dish topped with savory black, bean sauce, pork and vegetables! They also just came up with new fruit-ade drinks! Perfect for Summer and the spicy dishes! I tried the mango and lychee flavors so good!! Plenty of parking and super clean restaurant ,highly recommended! read more

My friend and I tried this spot for the first time today. The portions were just right for the two of us. Most of the dishes were very good but some lacked flavor and were a bit bland. Our waiters were very courteous and helpful. Overall it was a nice first time. read more

Food is alright here. Nothing special. I feel like the AYCE option is a better deal than getting stuff à la carte. Went on Juneteenth and was told it was a federal holiday so they don't offer the AYCE option. Another group of customers were making a big deal about it, as though the holiday didn't apply to them. Ha! read more

Authentic Korean noodles are hard to find, but Hao by Haoru is as close as it gets. We got the Seafood Gan Ja Jang (JaJang noodles with seafood instead of pork), the veggie Mapu Tofu, and a fried rice/Jampong (spicy seafood noodle soup) combo. Plenty of food to go around! The noodles were perfectly chewy and the toppings added great flavor. The JaJang was deep and earthy and the Jampong was spicy and flavorful. Definitely on our go-to list for authentic noodles, this place might even make we *want* to visit Fairfax just to eat. If you haven't tried Hao, get out there, and you'll be glad you did! read more

I went here with my friends to try the AYCE dinner on a weekend. Firstly, the place looks great and welcoming. It wasn't too busy so we were seated right away. There are two options for the AYCE - we picked Option A which is slightly cheaper than Option B. Option A included Fried Rice, Ja Jang Myeon, Lo Mein, Tang Su Yuk, and Spring roll. I can tell that everything it made fresh so it can take a while before a refill arrives. The dishes were good and decent. The portions were small - but you can always order more. The food quality is decent and the dish options were a little limited but a good option for groups and you want to try a little bit of everything. I would probably go back to try the ala carte next time. read more

Stopped by after son's baseball game in the area. What a great place to celebrate a big win with some deliciousness! Right upon entry, we were greeted with a warm smile and seated instantly. The lighting was very bright and the place was very clean. We opted for the Combo B Fried Rice & Jjam Pong and the Hao Ja Jang Myeon, which came highly recommended by the server. Both dishes were prepared fresh and very tasty! Parking was plentiful as it is shared with all the businesses in the center. They do have a great AYCE options, which we have on our radar for our next visit. Enjoy! read more

You can tell real care goes into both the food and the guest experience at Hao by Haoru. If you're a fan of Korean-Chinese cuisine or trying it for the first time, Hao is a must-visit! The overall restaurant is modern, clean, and welcoming. I think it would truly make for a great spot for both casual dinners and group outings. Staff were knowledgeable about the menu and happy to explain dishes, which really elevated my overall experience! As for my meal, it was my first time trying yoo rin gi and it completely won me over! The fried chicken was perfectly crispy with a savory sauce. Another very crispy and light item were the veggie spring rolls, which tasted great with the dipping sauce. The oyster jjamppong was rich and flavorful, while the seafood jajangmyeon was hearty and full of toppings. The cream lemon shrimp was comforting and the crab egg drop soup was silky and warming. Lastly, my favorite were the fried dumplings, which I was told are made with house-made wrappers and filling! They were THE BEST fried dumplings I've had! Every bite of my meal was delicious, especially paired with ice-cold Terra which tied everything together perfectly! I would highly recommend checking out Hao by Haoru! read more

I tried their ayce lunch menu - such a good deal! They make everything to order, so your food comes out hot and freshly made. I LOVED the kkanpungi (super flavorful), jjampong (can really taste the wok fire), and tangsuyuk (i like dipping the meat into the sauce separately so it stays crispy). The fried rice and lo mein noodles were also really tasty! The interior was very clean, modern looking, and spacious. It's definitely a great spot to come to with a large group! The food came out quickly and service was great :) read more

Tried this Chinese restaurant because it advertised itself as Halal, so I was definitely surprised to see pork on the menu. That was a little confusing, but overall the food was actually really good. The portions were generous, everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and the biggest surprise was that my kids cleaned their plates completely -- and they are usually very picky eaters. read more

The Khan Poong Dumplings were good--very doughy and fried with a sweet and slightly spicy sauce on top. Everything else was pretty bland in my honest opinion. The Han Special seafood noodle had very little seafood, but the noodle had a good wok hei flavor. Crab Meat Egg drop soup was imitation crab and looks like it was just plopped in to the base. My friends egg drop was thicker than my egg drop. The fried rice combination came with black bean sauce and soup. The fried rice was better without the black bean sauce. Overall, I wasn't impressed by most of Korean Chinese combination dishes. However, it was LARGE portions and made me full, so there's that. read more

I was finally able to make a visit along with my brother to this unique restaurant called Hao by Haoru which serves Korean ànd Chinese dishes. As you walked in, the restaurant is clean with a modern look and the atmosphere is comfortable. There's two options to choose from either À ($22.99) or B ($34.99) during M-F. On the weekend, À ($24.99) or B ($36.99) ànd this place is AYCE. If you select Option B then you also get Option A too. You also have the option to choose à la carte items from the rest of their menu but they are not AYCE. Since they serve dishes tapa style, I wasn't sure how big the plates were so I chose Option A. I chose every single item which includes Jajang myeon, jjam pong, fried rice, lo mein, mapo tofu, tang su yuk, khan poong Sal, spring rolls, yoo rin gi. The highlights on my trip were Jajang myeon which is a pork, vegetable, noodle dish served with a thick dark black bean sauce. This dish I really enjoy because the noodles were chewy with the right consistency and the flavors were on point. After you take a bite of the noodles followed it with the yellow pickled radish, that's a perfect combination. The fried rice was light, simple and not drown in soy sauce but yet with a hint of sesame oil. It was delicious as well. The khan poong sal which is a deep fried sweet and spicy chicken served with sauté dry hot peppers. And the fried spring roll had a light crispy wrapper filled with vegetables, served with two pieces ànd sweet dipping sauce. Whatever you do, keep the sweet and sour sauce from the tang su yuk which is a deep fried pork strips. That sweet and sour sauce had an enriched deep flavor that I never experienced before. It was made with Korean love. Though these dishes were serve tapa style, they are big enough to cover 2-3 people. Though the hours states the restaurant closes at 9:30p, the kitchen closes at 8:30p so make sure you get order in. I had excellent service by my server named Sam, he was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. I will make a return visit to try other items on their menu. read more

New Korean Chinese place that opened up in Fairfax. I've tried their Centreville location, also good. I would say maybe portion sizes here a bit smaller though. Overall attentive service and good quality food from my experience. Can't really take advantage of the AYCE though bc it's only during lunchtime during the weekdays. read more

Great flavor for black bean noodles (jjajangmyun) and the appropriate level of spicy for seafood noodle soup (jjamppong). There's something special about the flavor that you get when the color of the broth is opaque orange, just like in Korea (not translucent dull red). I did ask for extra spicy and it was perfect for me. Sweat inducing but still flavorful. I have to go back to try the other items. It's so nice to be able to go just across the street instead of driving to Centreville. read more

I was excited that this place opened up. I have been craving Korean/Chinese food for awhile. I have been twice now and both experiences have been good. The frst time I went I had Combo E, Sweet Sour Pork & Ja Jang Myeon. The sweet & sour pork came out pipping hot which I appreciate. The sauce was served on the side which I also prefer so that the pork doesn't get soggy. It was crispy and seasoned well. The ja jang myeon was okay. The sauce was kind of thin and there was not much noodles given. My second time I had Combo B, Fried Rice & Jjam Pong. I liked this combo much more. The fired rice was great and had a slight smokey flavor from the wok which I loved. Mixed with the spicy flavorful jjam pong; it was a great combination. The noodles this time were plentiful and the seafood in it was average but not bad. I enjoyed having lunch here! read more

I think there's an opportunity to come again, but the flavor was....ok! I really do mean it. However, the flavor level to price point ratio was not great. The service here was good, as our server was pleasant. I know it's the colder months now, but having a heater inside didn't really help us much. Bring a sweater! We had the AYCE option B. It came with the bulgogi, khan poong sal, & Yoo Rin Gi read more

Located in Greenbriar shopping center on the side closer to Marshall's. There were two other Korean restaurants that didn't last long in this same spot but maybe third time is the charm. We loved being able to drive down the road instead of 28 to go to Centreville. It was just as good as it's location in Centreville. The service seemed better and friendlier. The decor was modern. We ordered our usual favorites and were satisfied. This place has a kids menu and ayce lunch that the Centreville place doesn't. They are doing rhe soft opening now so come and check it out. We cant wait to come again. read more

My friend and I got sick after eating there. We both had nausea and diarrhea. Mine lasted for 5 days. It was the worst I've had ever. I didn't want to write a negative review since it could have been just our dish but I had to write one when I read that someone else got seriously sick there 4 months ago. The restaurant needs to fix their operations. read more

After waiting in line, we were seated, given menus and then told that they couldn't serve us unless we wanted to wait a long time for food and have a "bad experience." We drove an hour to try the food. Very disappointed. read more

Let me start by staying we have been to the Centreville location more than ten times since their opening. So seeing a new location of this open up in Greenbriar was a nice surprise. The menu and interior look really sleek and refined. Very modern. They advertise an all you can eat lunch special which is an interesting concept and have kids meals where you can pick two dishes in kids portions. My family and I came last night to try it since I kept driving by it next to the little gym in greenbriar shopping center. There was only one other family there when we arrived around 6 or so Sunday evening. Between two adults and two kids we ordered a medium tangsooyook, one jajjangmyun, one chadol jjambbong, and a chicken fried rice. Plenty of food btw. Flavors mimic the Centreville location, portion sizes might be a little smaller IMO. Everything tasted like it was fresh made. The jjambbong had a crazy noodle to seafood ratio. (Too many noodles, not enough seafood or beef topping) My low amount of stars comes from after eating. Maybe 3-4 hours after my husband began to feel sick, I woke in the middle of the night sick and our two kids were hit with sour stomach, bad cramps and intestinal pain the morning after. All in all we all had the same symptoms spread out throughout the night. I called the restaurant today to let them know we became sick after eating here. Whomever I spoke to said they have fresh food and good practices etc. I just called to inform them we became ill after eating there. With that being said, we probably will not return. From our many many times to the Centreville location we have never became sick from dining in or carry out from there. I am not sure what would have caused us to all fall ill but be careful! This was just our experience and I hope going forward, since they are new, they will practice safe food handling practices. read more

We had a great time dining tonight at this cute new restaurant. Service was very attentive and quick to bring anything we needed.

Lunch special is good in value. Went back for dinner the next day and found a hair in tangsuyuk probably will not return. Service is good, even during the busy/peak lunch AYCE times. Parking can be a bit of an issue since the restaurant is situated in a rather big strip mall center. read more

I returned to this restaurant because I had good memories from previous visits. We came in right at noon, and the place wasn't busy at all -- only one other table besides us. I wanted to introduce my friend to Korean-style Chinese food for the first time and hoped to give him a good experience since this spot is right near my home. Unfortunately, my past positive impressions didn't hold up. I'm not sure if the chef understands what Samseon Jjamppong is supposed to be. I expected more seafood than a regular jjamppong -- especially since it's priced higher -- but the amount of seafood was very minimal. Even the vegetables in the soup felt sparse. What made it even more disappointing was that the regular jjamppong ordered by the table next to us -- minutes after ours -- actually looked much more generous and plentiful than the "upgraded" version we received. It honestly felt as if one portion of soup had been split into two. We also ordered the Chicken Kanpoonggi, but it tasted slightly undercooked, had a bit of an off flavor, and the sauce was extremely bland. This restaurant is just 1-2 minutes from my home and has been a place I've visited often, but today was truly disappointing. read more

Food was okay, service was not. Had to go up to the counter to order after waiting for some time, was told to sit next to a stranger because there weren't enough tables. Tables were so close to each other it was so awkward to squeeze myself between the tables to sit down (I'm pretty sure everyone had the same experience and knows what I mean). I think I saw only two servers serving all the tables, and the service felt more like self-service (having to get up every time to order and to pay) because the restaurant was full and servers were busy. The AYCE seemed like a scam so just ordered a la carte. At least I was able to take home food and not feel pressured to overeat. I know it was a scam because when I calculated the regular menu prices with the amount of food I can eat, I would be losing money with AYCE. The only good part of AYCE is the fact that you can try different dishes...but only to find out they aren't unique. My sister also had the same review as me, won't be coming back. read more

There eat all you can .. just remember to order everything on the menu it's a great treat for the price!
