Annangol

I visited this restaurant in Annangol on February 22 and placed two separate orders one for dine-in and one to-go (Kimchi Jjigae). The to-go soup was for my child. When we opened the soup at home, we discovered a cockroach inside the food. This is completely unacceptable and a serious health and safety violation. Finding a cockroach in a meal especially one intended for a child is shocking, disgusting, and deeply concerning.This incident clearly reflects extremely poor hygiene and food safety standards. No customer should ever experience something like this. I am very disturbed by what happened and will be reporting this matter to the health department.I strongly warn others to be cautious. Please carefully inspect your food before eating if you choose to visit this establishment.

When a restaurant posts an apology notice at the entrance, promising to improve, you expect it to mean something—and in this case, it did. Their marinated char-grilled pork and spicy pork dishes were excellent, and the soybean paste soup stood out as exceptional, with a flavor that suggested homemade fermented soybean, rich and intense. The side dishes were good, though not extraordinary. Service was attentive and pleasant. Overall, nicely done.

I had one order of grilled spicy pork and regular grilled pork each. It was one of the best Korean grilled pork dishes in DMV. It’s even comparable to restaurants in Korea where people line up! Pork is soft and perfectly seasoned. A must try, huge portion for each order. The side dishes were not salty and awesome too. Most importantly, the servers were super nice and courteous. Will be back many times!

I came to Annakgol and truly enjoyed everything I ate — the grilled mackerel, the rustic-style pork ribs, and the marinated galbi. I also loved the dogani soup, the tofu and pork stew, and of course the spicy cold noodles. These dishes keep coming back to my mind, and every time I eat here, my stomach feels warm and refreshed. Life and work can be stressful, and for me, the best way to unwind is a good meal. Annakgol is the kind of place where you can enjoy comforting Korean home-style meals, hearty soups and stews, and flavorful barbecue all in one spot. What makes this place even more special is the atmosphere — soft Korean music that our parents’ generation loves plays in the background, creating a cozy, nostalgic, and welcoming vibe. It truly feels like stepping back into old Korean

The best Galbi in town! Loved their Mot-nan Pork rib, but now my new favorite is their Korean traditional beef-Galbi ! (Marinated Galbi, not LA Galbi) No fat in the beef Galbi! & I love it! So tender, soft, and tasty! The new management really improved the taste~
