Would recommended Mahdang in Rockville much more or even going to a DC Korean spot like Anju if you want to pay premium prices. At least the DC Korean spots have the quality for the premium. Or just make the drive to NoVA. It seems like this spots "good reviews" are severely outdated. Their website touts that the restaurant is a small business with lots to show for their name but they don't deliver on any end of the good food spectrum. Maybe if they got honest with themselves, lowered prices or upped portions, instead of trying to do business with their ego first, they could achieve what they clearly once were.

Chadol Korean BBQ was such a fun pick for our monthly dinner series! My friends and I had a great…read moretime and honestly left fullllll. For $45 per person, the all-you-can-eat experience feels like a really solid deal considering how many protein options and side dishes you get. They start you off with a variety of banchan (side dishes), including a salad with this super tasty dressing that had the perfect little spicy kick. For the BBQ, we kicked things off with the spicy bulgogi and butter garlic shrimp, while the others tried the pork belly (I don't eat pork). Later we ordered the steak, spicy brisket, and grilled squid, which were all delicious. The spicy brisket especially was a standout for me. The guys also ordered two rounds of fried dumplings that looked amazing, but since they contain pork, I had to sit those out. I'd love to see Chadol add a veggie dumpling option to the menu! As for the sides, the kimchi and cold glass noodles were both hits at our table, and of course we all added white rice. The "mashed potatoes" though? Definitely more like potato salad and unfortunately very bland. On the other hand, the cheese corn costs extra but is 1000% worth adding. For drinks, the guys enjoyed the Woody Old Fashioned while I had a mezcal margarita-style cocktail that was smoky and refreshing. We also ordered one of the chicken options but never received it and eventually just gave up on it. One of the coolest parts of the experience is the ordering system. Most meats are ordered directly from a machine at your table, and the food comes out quickly on this conveyor belt-style setup which was honestly so fun. Drinks and side dishes are ordered through the servers. The atmosphere was lively and energetic without feeling overwhelming. The restaurant is actually much larger inside than I expected, with a modern setup that works well for smaller groups. That said, I didn't really notice tables for larger parties, so I'm not sure how they accommodate groups bigger than 6 people. Service started off a little rough because our server wasn't very attentive, but after I called it out, he definitely stepped it up and things improved. Overall, Chadol was a really good experience and absolutely worth the price. The 1.5-hour seating limit makes sense too, both to keep things moving and give others a chance to enjoy the experience. I'd definitely go back!

Everything was great from the attentive service and staff to the quality of meat. I really like the fact that they have an a la carte option because personally I cannot do all you can eat since I get full pretty quickly lol. My cousin and I ordered one serving of the beef brisket and pork belly. The portions were generous and more than enough to fill us both up. I also love the ambiance of the place and unlike other kbbq places, it wasn't smokey and I didn't come out smelling like bbq :)

We came here for an early lunch, and ordered: +the Fried Beef Dumplings - fried a little too hard; the soy dipping sauce could have been better, as it was a little watered down +the Bulgogi Kimbap - this was okay +Tteokbokki - not a fan of the flavors; it was just overly sweet, and the sauce was just too thin for us +the LA Galbi Rice Bowl - topped with grilled sweet-soy beef short ribs with a choice of 3 banchans; we opted for the kimchi, the spinach, and the pickled radish & carrots; the veggies were fresh, but this was more on the bland side +the Spicy Pork Belly Bowl - topped with grilled gochujang-marinated Berkshire pork belly, served with a side of kimchi, stir-fried eggplant, and spinach; the pork belly had good color on it, but like the other bowl, it was more on the bland side Staff were friendly, and there is both indoor and outdoor seating.

You can avoid some fees by ordering delivery directly through their website. I put my order into uber eats, and it was at least $15 more than going directly through the website. Crazy. The food was quite tasty. I love that you can get kimchi either as a side or in a large 32 oz container. It lasted a few days and was so good. Top notch kimchi. We also had to get a beef bulgogi, and it was packed. Good stuff. Theirs has very nice lotus root in it, which I definitely appreciated. You don't see that often enough. The portion was generous, too, and good beef. We also tried the kimbap, which was one of the main reasons we ordered - we were craving it. They offer it in both tuna and beef. Both were tasty, but not the stars of the meal. The menu is quite large and has sandwiches ranging from classic banh mi to bulgogi cheesesteaks. They have korean pizzas, too, &pizza style.

The Noodle with Pork & Black Bean Sauce and Noodle with Veg & Beef Spicy Seafood Soup are my top favorites noodle dishes here. We also got the Fried Dumplings, which were just okay.

You can literally hear them slapping around your noodles in the kitchen! I also ordered the spicy seafood soup, which was recommended. I liked the chicken a little more than the soup, but the soup was a large portion as well and very shareable. I washed my meal down with a Korean beer.

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.

No reservations, just stop on by, grab a seat, and order your food at the counter. Service: service was pretty fast once our food was ordered. Staff were pretty good and they moved quickly to accommodate all guests. Drinks: they have a pretty solid list of local beers and ciders along with wines. Food: I ordered the Jjajangmyeon which was scrumptious! The roasted black bean sauce added some sweetness to the savory flavor oozing out of the shrimp and scallops. The noodles were perfectly cooked and the cucumber on top helped cooled the dish. I also ordered a side of cabbage kimchi which was the perfect addition to my meal. My boyfriend ordered and loved the Spicy bulgogi stir fry and I must say, it was delicious, even from the small bite that I had. Overall, this was a delectable meal and I'm looking forward to returning.

I didn't get a chance to take advantage of it this visit, but it's definitely given me another reason to come back soon. Whether you're ordering delivery or dining in, Chiko continues to impress.

The place I stay is walking distance from this restaurant. It also has the advantage of being near the Metro stop for Friendship Heights, on the Maryland side (the station straddles the District line). So I have met people here, and they can access it easily from either further toward downtown or as they commute from the suburbs. I always order the same thing, biscuits and gravy. I tend to be regular not only as to venues but menu items. They issue one of those little signs with a number for the table. They then bring out the order. Even when it has been crowded, they have been brisk. It has a moderate flow of clientele, so I have not had difficulty getting a table. If you are in the area and want something casual but where you can sit down and even linger a bit, this should fit the bill.

They all came with the eggs over hard, a tomato slice and sliced red onion instead of pico de gallo, and Kraft parmesan cheese from the shaker. That's just really not cool when they're $18 a plate. We also got a dirty napkin wrapped around a set of clean utensils. I'm giving two stars because the coffee and the brioche french toast are still good. But I won't be going back anytime soon...
