Myung-Ga Korean Deli

I give a 5 star review simply for the price. Their kim bab is great! The rest of the food is reasonable. Go in expecting a small restaurant that offers reasonably priced above average food and you won't be disappointed.

Food is great! We had spicy tuna kimbap, spicy pork and squid, and also bulgogi. The servings are huge! Each meal is enough for two people. The prices are super affordable especially if you look at the serving sizes. The meals are also very delicious. The only issue is that the space is small and the tables aren't set up efficiently (as in they put two people on a 6-seater table). In any case, we enjoyed the food and we will definitely go back here. Maybe a takeaway next time.

I love this place, we went to the one in Fairfax but this one is better, friendlier staff, cleaner establishment and better food. This time we got the beloved Kimbap, Fried Chicken, Bulgogi, and Wonton Ramen. If you want to eat traditional Korean Street/Comfort Food, this is the place to be. The batter for the fried chicken reminds me of the chicken and gizzards I would get from Agima outside Camp Casey in the Ville. Since discovering this place, I probably eat this 4-5 times a week.

I really enjoy this restaurant! I feel like they give you large portions for very great prices and it's always delicious! I don't think I've ever had a dish I did not like here. The most recent time I went the staff was a little slow in taking our order, but usually staff is quick and always friendly. I highly recommend! I love their soups (soon dubu) and the cheese donkatsu is amazing!

Pretty good for taste, but the prices, especially for it being a Korean “Bunsik” type of restaurant, is really expensive. Although, it is probably because of inflation and what not. But I do like, is that the food portions are a bit large. Service is subpar.

This is my second time coming here and I ordered DonKatsu. I can tell it's very well cooked but at the same time it's noticeable that it was put out for a bit before bringing it to our table because it wasn't hot enough and took away the freshness from it. I would say the same thing for kimchi as shown in the picture since it also tasted kind of bland. The overall taste wasn't bad at all, it's just that the food wasn't fresh enough. The service is good. It was very busy on Sunday so I understand that the waiters cannot serve everyone at once. I came to eat with a group of 8-10 people and the checkout process was kind of a bummer because apparently they only accept payment for the whole table as one check (we wanted to pay in separate checks); so I decided to just go pay at the counter instead. Would I say it's a restaurant that's worth coming back? Yes. But I would keep in mind that not every menu they have might come out fresh.

Delicious food and quick service. Got the cheese donkatsu and it’s like regular donkatsu except with a lot of cheese. It is pricey but the portions match the price and I would’ve needed to take it home if I wasn’t so hungry!

Overall 4.5 stars. Good are solid 5 stars. I was shocked the portion of the food they served, I could say it’s about 30% more portion than many other Korean restaurants. And the flavors were really good too. The price is reasonable as well. Service was okay, not the best but not the worst. Also, I am not sure why many ppl was complaining about price??? For the portions they server I think it’s very reasonable.

The food is always good I mean it is bunsik you think it couldn't go wrong but actually it can. But myung ga does it wellthe servers are nice typical. The seating is nice even though the space is relatively small. The fried chicken is so good and it's worth the 30 minutes but make sure to get the sauce on the side. We've gone many a times I would recommend

The gimbap here is my favorite!!! Their myung ga gimbap is so good. Consistently good! The place is clean and has quick, excellent service. I also love their sujebi (which is hard to find). Even the side soup is delicious. If you ever want really good gimbap you have to come here!

A little on the pricey side for a boon-shik-jib, but i suppose that has more to do with inflation than price gouging. We ordered the tonkatsu, and udon/kimbap combo and the food was just as we expected. Not bad, but not fab either.

Myung Ga has stayed solid despite its competition with frozen kimbaps are other Korean treats in American and Korean grocery stores. It's hard to justify the prices sometimes when there is a multitude of supermarkets that provide a quick easy cook option. But to be fair, compared to all of this competitors, Myung Ga's food generally tastes the best. It's an unassuming little place that has all the familiar Korean snacks.

The service was very fast and our server was friendly. We were immediately given ice water, a light soup, kimchi, and pickled radish. And after ordering, our food was out within 5 minutes! The interior is cozy and decorated with a variety of plants. I ordered the kimchi kimbap, which was delicious and had a generous portion size, and the ramen, which was a bit disappointing. The noodles tasted like cheap Top Ramen and the broth was nothing special. I did, however, like the rice cakes, egg, and veggies in the ramen.

We went here for a late lunch some time last week. We have been looking for a place that specializes in kimbap, so we are happy to find this spot. We ordered three kimbaps: Cheese, Kimchi, and Tuna. My date ordered a ramyun, but I forgot which one specifically. Our orders came with small bowls of soup and banchan. The kimbaps are much larger than what we are used to. However, it was delicious, and a serving is very filling. My date also liked his ramyun, which was quite generous. Overall, the prices are very reasonable - I think we paid less than $50 for everything. The service is excellent. The staff was very attentive and friendly. I would love to go back to try other kimbaps and items in their menu.

I have ordered the Myung-Ga Kim Bap (regular kimbap) and kimchi kimbap several times and have always enjoyed both! For $8.49/$9.49, it is a great portion, much larger than we are used to, and delicious. We have never dined in, but whenever we do takeout, the food is ready within 15 minutes. This place will be a go-to when we are in Centreville.

A small, Korean restaurant for large rolls of kimbap and other Korean dishes. They serve kimchi, pickled radish, and miso soup. Pickled daikon is served with the chicken. Here's what we ordered: Beef Kimbap 7.5/10 - liked this Kimbap the most Spicy Tuna Kimbap 7/10 - hint of spice, would like more filling Donkatsu Kimbap 5.5/10 - did not like the cold sauce paired with the kimbap - minimal flavor for this roll Cheese Rabokki 6.5/10 - not spicy at all - could use more rice cake Regular Half and Half Chicken 6/10 - regular half and half whole - light crispy outside - just OKAY, seems like there's no seasoning used at all - didn't try the chicken with red sauce, but it'd be better if they mixed it evenly -- they just dumped it on top Service was average.

The restaurant is small but cozy. Ordered the beef Kim Bap. It was huge! I liked the size but felt the meat was a bit dry. Also tried the seafood bimbimbap with came out sizzling. It was very on the bottom love the crispy rice. It came with a side of spicy sauce, I recommend trying the bimbimbap before you add sauce.

Great place if you're looking for some Korean food with big portions for great prices! There was a great variety of food to choose from. I had their Spicy Pork Kimbap which was so large and delicious! I definitely want to come back to try their others. The servers were kind and food came out quickly. The inside of the restaurant is a little on the smaller side. While we were dining, we noticed there were many people coming in and out with large to-go orders. Highly recommend checking this place out!

We ordered some of the kim bap to go and the portions were huge! The wait was not long as well, took about 10 minutes to get our order. We ordered the spicy tuna kimbap and the spicy pork kimbap. My favortite was the spicy pork kimbap, it had all the right seasoning and kept you wanting to eat more. Deff recommend this place for those who like kimbap . Will come back to experience the dine in experience.

One of the best Spicy Tuna Kimbap I've had. Service was quick and friendly and the restaurant was clean. We shall return to try more!

Love coming here! The kimbap toles are HUGE and so filling while being perfectly made! They also always serve you sides when you dine in so I highly recommend coming to dine in. I've also had their kimchi jjigae and kimchi fried rice, those are super delicious and huge portions to take back as leftovers. Be sure when you dine in that you arrive quite a bit before closing because while they close at 9pm, they will stop dine-in at 8pm and take out at 8:30pm. Truly everything about the korean deli is perfect: the food, the price, the service, and location. Absolutely recommend to others and continue to come to try more things on their menu.

Best place for kimbap in NOVA! My recent favorite is the spicy tuna, but you can't go wrong with any of the flavors. It's a huge portion and very fresh. This was my go-to place for a snack after school, and I'm still coming back after 10 years. The service is fast and efficient. Next time you are craving some authentic Korean snack meals like kimbap, ramen, or tteokbokki, try this place.

Spicy kimbap and jjambong ramen was yummy. However jjambong ramen took a while to come out and they didnt fill up the waters. Very casual, clean, authentic korean and great for after church. Good spot for Korean comfort food.

I regularly came here to buy a Kimbap before my work. Their Kimbap rolls are consistently huge, filled with veggies and meat. Each piece can barely fit into my mouth with how big it is. The staff are also very friendly and service is fast. I would walk in, order, and be out with my food within minutes. I highly recommend this place if you want some delicious Korean food with great portions.

The kimbap here is HUGE. I love the original beef flavor and the donkatsu. Such a quick and easy lunch when you're out and about. They have online ordering on their website so you don't have to wait just order before you leave hmart.

I can't wait to go back! I loved everything I ordered here, and it's now on my list of places to eat at whenever I'm back in VA. I tried a few different types of the kimbap and they were all GREAT, and I also really enjoyed the donkatsu. The service was good too- they were quick and efficient, and came by a few times to refill our waters. The atmosphere isn't cozy, but for what they sell, I wasn't expecting to be cozy anyways. They have a lot of customers ordering take-out, so there's a lot of people going in and out. Regardless, the food is amazing.

Myunga is a go-to spot for korean "bunsik" dishes. Their kimbap are all delicious - can't go wrong with the regular, but I'd also recommend the combination kimbap if you want to try bulgogi, kimchi, tuna, and cheese all in one roll. Their rappoki is delicious as well with the perfect level of spice, and their katsu is also a popular option for anyone looking for something more mild. Portion sizes are big and the prices are relatively affordable. Most people seem to place take out orders, but they do have some seating inside the restaurant for those looking to dine in. Service is fast but the staff isn't super friendly or attentive - on multiple visits I've had servers spend more time sitting around & looking at their phones instead of serving tables. Would recommend for anyone looking to try some inexpensive Korean dishes.

I usually pick up the tuna kimbap to go whenever we crave for kimbap. However, on this one weekday morning, I dined in with my brother as this was one of the few restaurants in the Centreville area that opened early (10:30am). The restaurant was clean and plenty of seating for customers. We had the myungga kimbap, donkatsu, and ddeokbokki to share. The kimbap never disappoints with so much fillings inside. The donkatsu was nice and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The service was quick to attend our needs.

I've been eating here with my family for years now, and the food is still so good. Classic Korean foods that always hits the spot.

we got there at 325pm and the waiter said for the lunch portion we have 5 mins to order so we quickly ordered the best things on the menu. Food was def good will be going back to try more for the menu.

The food is good. It is so good that I often travel 30+ minutes to get here. However, this is coming to an abrupt halt after having multiple undesirable interactions with the staff. When the owner is not present, the staff is negligent and rude. They make up their own rules and create an incredibly uncomfortable environment. They will scoff and roll their eyes at simple requests (i.e., extra napkin or water refill). I am no longer interested in giving this business my money because of their unkind staff.

Hidden part of a shopping center with the front entrance as Korean Deli. Parking is plenty as it is a shared pilot with other businesses. Very clean with lots of options in a menu with pictures if you aren't too sure of the names. The gim bap was fresh and tasty with an healthy portion for around $9-$10 a roll. The kimchi fried rice was a little bland but has fulfilling with little bits of shrimp and ham (or spam). From order to ready for take out took less than 15 minutes for a Saturday lunch time. Will definitely be back. Enjoy!

Gonna make this short and sweet! Exterior/interior: I don't think it says myung-ga on the outside. I think it says Korean Deli. The interior is small. Food: the food is decent. We ordered the myung ga kimbap which is pretty tasty, tuna kimbap (wifey's fav), jjol myun (meh...impartial but well done), and the corn rice (actually pretty tasty) Price: reasonable Overall: 5/5

Date: 4/18/2023 Haven't been to this location in a long time and the last time I went was the location in Fairfax. Was really craving Kimbap especially the Anchovy and Myung Ga came first to mind and was not disappointed. Additionally, got the Soon Tofu and would have to say the portion size was much larger than expected. The broth was excellent and the seafood was a nice touch. Only thing I wish that it had was maybe spam or some meat to complement it as well or another option that had that.

We ordered 4 different gimbaps and some fried boneless chicken. I've been craving some good gimbap, so I had to get multiple while I was in the area. The donkatsu, spicy tuna, kimchi, and spicy pork gimbaps were soooooo good and satisfied my craving. One thing to know is the spicy tuna has a kick to it, so if you don't do well with spice, avoid ordering it. As for the fried chicken, I could have done without it. Def not CM or BBQ quality or taste. All in all, a good place for casual and quick dining.

My fiancé always raves about this place so I knew I had to check it out. I am definitely glad I did because this place is definitely a hidden gem. The food here is Korean comfort food. However, judging by the diverse clientele when I was dining, it is not exclusive to just Koreans. The decor doesn't scream trendy but the food is where they shine. We got the myung-ga kimbap and the donkatsu kimbap, dolsot bibimbap, haemool udon bokeum, and soon tofu. All the portions are a good size, especially compared to a lot of other Korean restaurants in the area. All the food was delicious. The seafood udon was surprising and had a good kick. If I was to pick my least favorite of what I ordered, it would be the soon tofu which was a bit too watery for me. Overall, it was a good meal. The ambiance is casual, the portions are generous and the price point is decent. I would definitely come back to try the other menu items!

We were looking to grab some Kimbap from somewhere in Centreville on our way back home and we decided on this place based on the reviews. We placed an online order on their site for a regular Kimbap, a kimchi Kimbap, and an Omelet Rice. I was a little worried that I never got a text or email confirmation or an estimation when it would be ready so we just gave it 15 minutes. I walked inside towards the back and it was ready when I came in so luckily it worked out. The food traveled well. Both Kimbaps came in one container but they were both enormous rolls and both very hearty and solid. The Omelet Rice was also a huge portion, we could not finish but had good flavor. I would come back but probably just place my order inside the restaurant and also try something else. They have a pretty extensive menu.

Cozy place next to Starbucks. Food is filling and inexpensive. Quick service to be in and out if you are eating in.

Their beef gimbap is really good. But, I was very disappointed with ramen with rice cake when I ordered for take out. They put all in one (cheap plastic container which cannot be good for health) and by the time when I got home (25 minutes), there was no more liquid. The noodles swelled so much. Other places like Gogi GoGo uses special container that separates the noodle from the soup. I also asked not to make it spicy, so they did not put spicy peppers or gochujang which was good but they still put fair amount of black pepper. Also, their service is still not good. I stopped going there because of rude and unfriendly interactions I had a coupule of years ago. I tried again tonight. They were not friendly, especially because I had questions about their foods, I had to go back and forth between their kiosk near the door and to the front near the kitchen which is very inconvenient. Every time I had a question, I had to walk up there and they looked and treated me like I was weird. They sure know how to make their customers feel welcome.

dont get me wrong their kimbap always top of the line but others food wasn't great as i thought or at least not the same as use to be. They finally reopen for Dine in which is great. I ordered whole fries chicken and Donkatsu. They used to have the best sauce with fries chicken but this time it wasn't that food. I feel like the taste has change a bit. Don katsu was ok, they gave good amount of meat but the sauce wasn't good with it. I had to ask for extra sauce that used for fries chicken to dip in. It was quite disappointment, but i will come back for kimbap and give more try maybe just one bad day. Server: we didnt get good server. let started with when we got in the way they hand us the menu was weird. It like she almost laying on the table and slide off the menu. We both look at each other like what her problem. They only have 3 tables at the times and don't check up on customers. Our water was never refill. We had to ask several times and it took

My personal favorites are tuna kimbap, donkatsu kimbap, and the jjamppong ramen! Great for quick bites/casual, but filling food!!

Tried the cheese Kim bap asked them to leave out crab. Good service. My family lives Kim bap especially after attorney wu

Yum. We love Korean fast food. I recommend the katsu Kimbap and the tuna!!! So good. The portions are typically on the larger side. Kimbap comes with pickled radish and soup. If you want Kimbap or "Korean sushi" as some call it this is the spot

if you need/crave/want to try kimbab, this is where you need to be. I have lost count of how many times I've been here and I've gotten all my friends into Myungga too recs: Donkatsu Kimbab Rabokki Jjamppong Their kimbabs are STUFFED. they do not skimp at all and a roll fills me up for HOURS. 12/10

I used to come here when I was in high school, and overall Id say not much has changed!! The price is still on the lower end, and in terms of quality you are getting what you paid for. It's bunshik style food which is pretty much fast food in Korea. The kimbap is the best thing to get here, as you can see from the pic its chock full of ingredients! I am taking some stars off because I do think sanitation may not be a priority here, have had some stomach issues a few times

Kimbaps are one of those ubiquitous dishes that are plentiful everywhere but so hard to make it right. Myunga doesn't disappoint. I like their size of rolls and how much they stuff the middle to give you real money for the roles. Personally fam of tuna kimchi rolls here and of course, the myunga gimbap original

We went into this restaurant thinking it was a deli, serving sandwiches and soups since it was called "Korean Deli". We were surprised to find that they serve assorted ramen, rice with sides, chicken with sauce, and other delicious food options. We were happy to have ended up eating at this place as the food was good. The wait staff started us off with water and was attentive in refilling our water. They also took our order pretty quickly so we were not sitting around for a long time. The ambiance was where we found the "Deli" feel.

I've been here twice and I live in PA. Y'all know what that means...yes it's that's good. Good can mean a lot of things but usually the consistency is among them. Twice I've been here and twice I left happy because the food has flavor, good portions and the service was tight. Place isn't huge and so depending on the time of day you could be waiting and there isn't a 'lobby' for waiting. Well lit and casual atmosphere. We usually get the kim bap, duk mandoo gook, fried chicken and thats usually enough for our family.

I love Korean boonshik- finger foods. So good. Myungga's never disappoints. I consider this place the gold standard of excellence for kimbob. I mean honestly, if you've ever made kimbob at home, you know how hard it is to make it with maximum filling without busting. They're all good but my favorite is tuna- the kkaenip really makes it. It's also cheap (in Korea kimbob is less than $5 per roll lol but yes, cheap for Northern VA). What else is good? Chicken and tteokbokki.

cute little spot to grab quick bites like kimbap & donkatsu! I go whenever I crave simple korean food bc you can never go wrong

Small hole in the wall restaurant with different types of kimbap, noodles, soup, and chicken, just to name a few. Food is pretty good. Service is always decent. They're not super busy so it's a good spot to grab a quick bite if you're in a hurry. Their JjamBbong SooJaeBi is pretty good. The regular JjamBbong would be better if they used different noodles. The one they have/use isn't fresh and chewy like other restaurants. BUT... they load it with plenty of seafood. They don't skimp there. The Udon soup that comes out with the kimbap has great flavor. One of the only places I actually enjoy it as much as I do.

Honestly I think this place has really improved. I hesitated writing a review because my past experience was so terrible. I went today with my husband and I guess management changed because they were very attentive and quick to take our order. Our waitress was quick with bringing water, food, and the side dishes. Our food was delicious and hot. We got Katsu kimbap, combination kimbap, and cheese ddukbokki. It was all very delicious! It's not CHEAP food or anything, but everything was yummy and hot.

Everything tasted so delicious. The servers were friendly and inside the store gave me like an old kimbab store vibe in Korea. If you love cheese please get the cheese donkatsu.

I'll post the picture without saying anything. You can judge by looking at it. How amazing food.

This place is absolutely amazing. I go to school out-of-state and I always come here for my Korean food fix when I'm back in town. They're kimbaps are big and good, but the main highlight for me is their Cheese Dduk bok ki. It's soft and chewy, spicy and sweet, with stringy cheese to tie it all up. I've gotten the Ra bok ki before which is the same thing with ramen included and equally delicious. The food is a little pricey, but worth the amount of food you get. I am often able to have some leftovers for the next day as well.

This place is great for cheap, Korean food! We ordered the regular kimbap, dumpling ramen and cheese donkatsu. My favorite was the kimbap! It was pretty big and filling, great for sharing. The ramen wasn't anything special - tasted pretty much like Shin ramen, but the dumplings were good. The cheese donkatsu was really unique, but sooooo cheesy. At first it was pretty good, but towards the end, it felt like I was just eating cheese. If you really like cheese, maybe this is the dish for you! Personally, the cheese felt really heavy, not sure if I would order it again. Also, the donkatsu sauce has peanuts in it (those with peanut allergies beware!!!), but we were able to ask for it on the side. I noticed a lot of people had issues with their service, but I came here on a Sunday night (not too packed -- there were a couple of other tables), and the server was attentive. He refilled our waters twice and was friendly! Overall, for the price, this place was pretty good! Get one of the kimbap! I've tried the kimchi kimbap, regular kimbap and spicy pork kimbap and none have disappointed!!

January 2021 - COVID Review: I've only ever been to the Fairfax location even though this place is so much closer to home for me! The gimbap is the same quality at both locations! I love how big they are and the price is so great for the portion you get. During COVID, I usually call ahead to order and it's always ready just on time as promised. The gimbap also comes with a side of soup per roll that you get.
