TaKorean | The Yards

Takorean was given a high endorsement from an associate of mine to try while in Washington DC. They were not wrong. Cleanliness. 4.5 of 5. The restaurant was well maintained and appeared very clean. Service: 3.5 of 5. Staff was professional but not talkative to the customers. A little more interaction would have been nice for a first trial run. Food quantity 5 of 5. I ordered the slaw bowl that had romaine slaw with some kimchi slaw. For the meat I had chicken. Additions were tomatoes, pickled daikon radish, and cilantro. A lot of food, left the restaurant full. Food quality 5 of 5. Every bite was full of flavor and pleasant. The aroma of the food matched the taste. Though late in the day when I solicited the restaurant, the food was still fresh, delicious, and delightful. Price: $$ 15-20 per person would be reasonable, I didn’t chose a lot of options that could increase one’s bill. Overall I would give this restaurant a 4.5 of 5

Perfect spot for a quick healthy lunch. Was in the navy yard for a few days and went here a few times. Very consistent and quick.

I tried the union market location a while back, and I was disappointed. I think it might have been because it was the end of the day, and all the food did not taste fresh, but this time around, it was for the most part pretty good! I got 3 tacos, one chicken, one pork, and one tofu. The chicken and pork were really yummy! Tasted the fusion of Korean and Mexican flavors! The tofu was just meh, but I think tofu fusion is always meh, and Korean tofu should only be in stew or steamed with kimchi imo. The slaws for each taco were also yummy, but still kept the flavor of the meat as the star. Gonna knock the price because it was 11.35 for 3 tacos, but definitely worth it on Taco Tuesday when the price goes down to 7.35. Go on Tuesdays!!! Place is very clean, if a little sterile, but no complaints from me there!

I asked the server would he suggest the tacos or the bowl and he HIGHLE suggested I order the bowl. My boyfriend ordered the 3 tacos with pork, chicken and steak tacos and for some reason they had very little to no taste. I ordered the chicken bowl with brown rice with the gochiu pow toppings. It's was really good but not really filling. Sadly, I was hungry a couple of hours later. Great place for a quick lunch if you're in the yard though.

Enjoyed both deciding on the ingredients of my bowl and eating it. I got a half brown rice, half spiced kale bowl of pork with a memorably sauce. My friend got the set of 3 chicken tacos on soft corn tortillas, which she has enjoyed several times before.

Highly recommend this fast casual spot for a quick dine-in or take out meal. I recommend the chicken bowl with half kale and half brown rice. Get all the sauces and topping.

extremely good. rice is cooked perfect every time, the beef is amazing, and the romaine slaw balances out all the flavors. Could eat this everyday. Also, have been going here for 2 years + and it is great EVERY time.

The food was very savory and delicious. The guacamole tasted fresh with chunks of avocado in it, very delicious. I had the the bowl with white rice, romaine slaw, tofu, poached egg, guacamole, sesame seeds, cilantro, and crunch shallots to finish it off.
