$33 per person for AYCE, good options to choose from on their Option A menu. Went around 5:30pm as a party of three on a Sunday and was able to be seated right away. The free cup of iced coffee was a nice touch at the end! read more

Kogiya Korean BBQ - panchan - Korean Near Me - Annandale, Virginia

We haven't been to Kogiya in years so we had no clue they started an all you can eat menu. We opted for option b so we could enjoy the steak and galbi. The meat quality was really good and I love all the banchan we received. The service was also great. I took off a star because Kogiya is HOT. We have been to many many many Kbbq places and yes the grill is hot, but it's as though they have 0 AC or 0 fans and we have never experienced this at any other kbbq place in Annandale. Be prepared to sweat sweat sweat while there. read more

What happened to this place? This used to be my favorite Korean BBQ 10 years ago. The quality has gone way down. The marinated brisket tastes like bulgogi... so odd. The intestines in the premium options were inedible. It was like chewing tires. If you had gopchang story then you know what good intestines should taste like. The marinated galbi was atrocious. Probably the most offensive part of my meal. Galbi is supposed to be the best part. Their Galbi was extremely chewy and the marinade gave me diabetes... sooo sweet. I also had bits of bone break off into my teeth with each bite. This Galbi is off the bone so why am I getting bone bits?!?! Best part of my meal was the pork belly. Kudos on the pork belly but beef is my favorite so I was super super disappointed. Is Sylvia still the owner or did she sell it? This is not the same Kogiya I had 10 years ago!!!! read more

The food was fresh and sizzling, this was my first time back in 8+ years and Kogiya is still amazing. The prompt service, attentive services and great selection makes this a great place for groups of all sizes. I've been with family and coworkers and it's always a wonderful experience. read more

Trying to find a good quality KBBQ spot like what we're used to in California, and found this to be a pretty decent spot. Customer service was great and they were all very attentive, which is always a plus. Ordered the brisket- meat quality was good. (Meat to fat ratio, perfect.) The galbi short rib was just okay - I think a little too sweet for my taste buds, and the bulgogi had a good marinade to it, but wished it wasn't so chopped up. We went with Option B, but the main meats we enjoyed were from the Option A list. Will I be back the next time I'm in town? Probably. 8 out of 10 for me. Enjoy. read more

of all of the KBBQ places in Annandale this is my go-to favorite one of all. The atmosphere is casual and the food is always good. Something they do that I really enjoy is the small cup of iced coffee at the end of the meal. It's a satisfying palette cleanser. I've very rarely gone when it wasn't already crowded, so you'll want to try to get on the list. It's not quite a reservation, but it is putting your name down ahead of time. The only downside is that the parking lot isn't very big and sometimes its a pain to park read more

It's been a while but we were meeting someone half way. Kogiya is a long time OG of BBQ. Prices sure have gone up for the dinner AYCE(option A $33) Staff were awesome! Yes, we ate super early and were the only customers in house. It felt so special. Table setup was done while we arrived. Lots of delicious appetizers and plenty of complimentary refills. Staff even suggested we may want to do Ala carte if we were not that hungry. The two staff worked as team and made sure all our food was being cooked by them. Grill was constantly changed a The food was so good. The meat was a good quality. We chose both marinated and non marinated. We opted for AYCE but also bought Ala carte Galbi. That steak was so tender. read more

I really liked this reopening of kogiya. The inside was industrial and kinda cute. The AYCE option A wasn't too bad, $33 pp. prices definitely went up but the meet quality was pretty good. I really enjoyed the brisket, so soft! Unlimited Sides were pretty good too. The kimchi in was yummy, perfectly salted and spicy. read more

Kogiya Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Annandale, Virginia

You can do a la carte or ayce option. For AYCE, there are set A and B. The beef options in set A are all thinly sliced, which I'm not a fan. In set B, you get thicker cut beef, LA Galbi (1 per person), and daechang (beef old intestine). However, I don't like the way they cut (split it in half vertically) daechang because it makes it a lot chewier than normal. You also might want to double check that the kitchen has all options in set B available because they ran out of LA Galbi when we were there. read more

Def a new favorite spot for KBBQ. I felt like the price was reasonable for what you get and you can choose between two options for lunch.

Kogiya Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Annandale, Virginia

This place was such a fun time for my friends and me. Like any bbq place, they had the grill around along with our sides - note reservation is most likely required. They had an option for grill on your own or have someone grill for you / we had some expert cooks do we grilled on our own. We did an all you can eat bbq special. We got the brisket, chicken and short rib. Everything was fantastic. With the all you can eat, you even get a steamed egg, rice and soup. I would definitely come back here again. Just note, reservation is recommended. read more

Idk what happened with them but they were peak in 2018. And has gone downhill since 2022. This place used to be pack and long waits. Now you just can walk in with no lines. The quality of meat just does not taste the same. The beef meats were lower quality for what you're paying for. I would recommend going to the other kbbq in Annandale. read more

Kogiya Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Annandale, Virginia

Make sure you have a reservation because this place is always packed! From the moment we arrived the customer service was amazing! Drinks arrived quickly and once we chose our food option (highly option B) the grill was turned on, sides and sauces served and meat was ready to cook! You have the option to cook yourself or they will cook for you. The food is amazing.....bulgogi beef, short ribs, pork belly were all chefs kiss. You only get an hour and a half for all you can eat so choose quickly and wisely and you won't be disappointed! read more

We have been here twice and loved it both times! The servers are quick and helpful with preparing all the options. We loved the food (as you can see from the empty plates in the photo) but all dietary needs were able to be met in our group. My only complaint is the restaurant was particularly smokey this last time we went but I don't know how easy that is to avoid with the nature of the cuisine! But again, our favorite Korean BBQ and we can't wait to go back! read more

Kogiya Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Annandale, Virginia

For AYCE, it's probably not worth it. There wasn't a lot of variety in the A or B options. The meat wasn't that fatty compared to other places, but you get tired of the meats fast, especially the marinated ones. For A you pay $33, and for B you pay for $38. You can only choose 3 dishes at a time for your whole party. The a la carte options seem more worth it--especially the steak and prime rib. However, I would not come back. The staff was nice and quick and attentive. They changed the grill often. They are cautious and make sure you don't turn the heat up too high. read more

The service was so great! I cannot believe how attentive the staff was. Kudos to them all! We all felt so well attended to. We had a party of 11, of which 9 were hungry young people. We got 11 all you can eat meals. We all ate so much and food was so good. read more

I enjoy Kogiya. The space is large, and the food is generally consistent. However, there have been times when the fatty brisket has been either leaner or fattier depending on the day. My favorite dishes are probably the spicy bulgogi and the kkot sal (if I want to splurge and get a fancier steak). They have a lot of servers running around, but on busy days you may need to keep an eye on the grill and cook the meat yourself to prevent it from burning since the staff can be spread a bit thin. Overall it is a solid Korean BBQ spot. It is exponentially better than Honey Pig in my opinion, but it does not quite match the quality and consistency of Meokja Meokja. That said, Kogiya is better for larger parties and late-night dining. read more

We absolutely loved our experience! Everything was amazing; the food quality was top-notch, and the service was incredibly friendly. It's definitely a place I would recommend! read more

We did the Option A all you can eat for $33 per person and had a great experience. I hadn't been here in 5+ years and my experience made me miss eating here! The meats were all great quality, our favorites being the miso pork belly and spicy bulgolgi. It comes with unlimited meats, unlimited sauce, rice and veggies. The sauces were very good and one was unique and lemony. My memory had always been that you need a reservation, and this time we went for lunch right when they opened on a Sunday and we were fine without one. It started filling up around 2pm. read more

The BEST all you can eat (AYCE) Korean barbecue in Northern VA. Best vale at $33 for Option A lunch (this was a weekday). My go to: 1. Brisket. Thinly sliced. No marinade. Moist. Deeeeelish!! 2. Pork Belly. Thick. No marinade. Yummmmy. 3. Egg soup (pardon for not knowing the name) Other meats - like chicken - are available already marinaded. Calling all Carnivores. Lol. Staff cooks right in front of you on the grill that's on the table. Awesome customer service. They kept the meats coming quickly. Complimentary unlimted sides: rice, veg, egg soup. Visit this small business. We'll be back. read more

I'm honestly not sure how this place got such great reviews.... Maybe it's the location it's in my husband and I go to tons of kbbq spots in the NOVA area and we were super excited to try this spot! We brought friends with us and the whole group was disappointed. Food was not great, staff were confused about menu options, and they don't have the best sides. The ambiance is very casual. read more

Ended up back here on accident, not realizing I had already been here 6 years ago! They didn't run out of rice this time :D Staff is so friendly and quick to help. I wish the tables were slightly more spacious, as it felt really cramped with our large table and all of our plates, drinks, food, etc. The complimentary iced coffee provided at the end of the meal is such a nice touch!! Can't wait to come back. read more

Over ordered but worth it. We opted to not do AYCA to have higher quality meat and we're not disappointed. We added a corn cheese side which we finished and a bibimbop bowl - not needed, took to go. Solid rec from a KBBQ lover! read more

Best KBBQ spot in the area hands down!! The meat is high quality and fresh, and sooo flavorful. Our favorites from the AYCE menu were the beef brisket and the garlic pork bulgogi. The bulgogi was so soft and juicy. The banchan was tasty as well and paired well with the meat. Service was super fast and our waiter was very attentive to refills and ordering more meat. I know this spot gets busy on weekends so be sure to make a reservation ahead of time. Parking is easy! read more

For the amount of ratings this KBBQ place has, I ended up disappointed with our experience. Ambiance gives off authentic Korean BBQ restaurant vibes; it's a more casual setting with nothing fancy and not a lot of decor. Bathroom was horrendous... there was no toilet paper & I had to ask our server for some & it looked like the staff didn't clean the bathroom often. Now as far as food & service. You have the option for your server to cook for you or to self-cook. We always choose to cook on our own, but our server was still attentive to clearing out plates, changing grills, and giving more meat. The KBBQ meat itself though... seemed very low quality. Something as simple as the brisket was tough... and didn't even uncurl the way it normally does when you start frying it. It just lay there... in its frozen curled form. I don't know, but we paid extra ($38/adult) for all the extra meat, but I noticed they don't even offer bulgogi & kalbi in their most expensive option. We don't normally eat that when we go to KBBQ anyway but it's just food for thought-- other places offer more selections of meat/marinated meat for the same price. I think the main difference with the $38 price is the beef belly and seafood. It was not worth it. I'm sure at one point this restaurant was lower cost & high quality, but definitely not when we were there! I don't think I'll be eating here again when there's plenty of other AYCE KBBQ options in the area! read more

Kogiya is always a hit. Every single time. The customer service is great, they're moderately priced, and the quality of the food is excellent. You really can't go wrong with ordering anything on their menu. The ambiance is lively and fun. This a staple place for Korean bbq in northern Virginia. read more

It's been a staple in Annandale for many years. The food is still consistent. The biggest difference-most probably won't care-the banchan has become a little more limited. It's still good, but you pick off the menu. Best part of the meal was definitely our server Mason who is by far to me the best server there. read more

About a 1-1.5: We had come here as a group for an early dinner, and our table opted for the A option for the AYCE - We stuck with the chadol, the marinated chadol, the miso-marinated pork belly, and the veggies. We had to constantly remind the staff to cook the meats at the requested and appropriate temperature - some of the meats were undercooked, while others were left on the grill too long. The meats, especially the chadol, had an off-putting taste to them - kind of like a 'gas'-type of an odor and taste, due to the grill - not sure if the gas that was being used was not calibrated properly, but the taste permeated through the meats, making it super unenjoyable and almost inedible. In terms of the soup and the steamed egg, I wished the restaurant was more mindful in terms of the number of party in the group and actually provide the correct servings of these. In addition, there were no additional bowls or soup spoons to use. Honestly, it seemed as if we filled up our bellies more with the side dishes, rather than the meats, if we were able to get them. Trying to flag our servers down and getting refills on the banchans, rice, water, and even silverware was such a pain. Note that there is a time limit to your dining experience, where a great percentage of this time is waiting around for service. The place does accept reservations. Sorry, Kogiya - we'll be opting for other KBBQ places. +funky-tasting meats +slow and inattentive service +meats not properly cooked +reservations accepted +parking available in the lot read more

Solid kbbq spot - we got the AYCE option A which was good and the meats we got were tasty. However I wish the portions were a little smaller, there was a lot of meat for just the two of us and I wanted to try more different kinds. Service was fast and efficient. I also liked the chair design to keep items away from the smoky smell. We came at 5pm on a Friday as a walk in and were seated immediately, but around 6pm the place was packed. It does get quite noisy within the restaurant when full. read more

Service is great. Quality of food is good. The banchan is yummy. My clothes smell like KBBQ even tho I stowed it away in the seat. The soybean soup and egg souffele were the unexpected stars of the show. We opted for brisket, soy garlic brisket and soy garlic pork. Brisket was a blank canvas to dip into sauces or pair with banchan. The soy garlic brisket was flavorful as was the fattier pork. We didnt order anything else. We should have replaced the rice with lettuce but my son loves rice. The potato salad is evil (it was delicious). $33 per person AYCE with option A.... not bad. Not good if you can't eat a lot. read more

Almost every time I visit the DMV, this place is a must stop by. You can chose to grill your own meat or have one of the servers cook your food. We almost always go with having someone cook our food that way we can focus on eating. Very important especially when you're doing AYCE. The all you can eat is a great price point $33-$38 dollars depending on option A or B. AYCE is timed but pick right and you'll be stuffed!! The banchan here is delicious. And always plentiful. My only gripe is I wish that when you're with a big crowd, that they would give you a bigger serving so you don't have to ask for refills as often. The meat is always fresh and delicious. The marinated meats are some of the best I've had at any Kbbq place. The place can get very busy so just know depending on the time of day you may have a wait. They do take reservations online. read more

Exceptional experience!!! This was my first Korean bbq experience and it was phenomenal. I expected service to be slow and inconsistent due to it being a timed experience - but the servers were so prompt and so helpful to the 6 super white guys who obviously didn't know what they were doing. They started helping us cook our meat so we could eat faster and was the opposite of the service we expected. We were never waiting for more food to cook/ eat. It was a little sweaty, but that's to be expected when you're eating a bunch of meat in a room with a bunch of burners. Totally recommend!!! read more
