We came for an early Saturday lunch with friends, first to arrive when the place opened at 11:30. No crowd at this time. Items we ordered were the vegetable japchae, spicy pork bulgogi bothcooked in the kitchen), beef brisket, and la galbi cooked on the grill). They brought a light variety of tasty banchan, and grilled the spicy bean sprouts on the grill along with the meat. They made of point of saying that what we ordered would only come with three steamed rice servings, which since I don't eat much rice is fine but it seemed a little nickel and dimey given the priciness of the entrees. Everything was good I personally prefer marinated meat to the plain brisket but that's a preference thin...
Previously, the meat was served with just one sauce (you could request a second if needed), but during our last visit, we were pleasantly surprised to find three different sauces at each place setting. The meal is also complemented by a variety of delicious banchan—mini side dishes that can range from potato salad to kimchi, salads, and more. Every table receives at least one hot bowl of steaming egg, which is delightful (just remember to blow on your spoon before taking a bite!).
We always ask for some garlic and sliced jalapeños, which are fantastic when grilled on the sides. This time, we tried dumplings, which were decent, but we probably wouldn’t order them again. The meat should defi...
The service was friendly, although I noticed they didn't offer water refills automatically, so you'll need to ask if you want more. You can split the total bill into separate checks, but be careful to avoid overpaying—this is particularly important because the suggested tip amount reflects the total bill rather than the split. There were also Korean pop videos playing in the background, which is a nice touch if you're a fan.
In total, our bill was around $100 for three meats, dumplings, and sides. It may not be the cheapest option, but it’s definitely worth it. I’ll be returning for more Korean BBQ!
To be honest, the meats were a bit chewy and had some sinew, but I didn’t mind at all. The flavors of the side dishes were absolutely outstanding. I loved the whipped eggs in broth, the cucumbers, the kimchi, and the salad—everything was just delicious. But the real highlight for me was the glass noodles. Even though the meats were slightly tough, they were still very tasty. Just take smaller bites!
Dining in this lively environment with loved ones was such a fun experience. I truly enjoyed our Black Friday meal here. Go Honey Pig!

I have never done a Korean BBQ experience like this before. The table had the hot plate right in the middle and the waitress cooks everything right there. It's a LOUD place and has a long wait. If it's someone's birthday and you tell them, you'll be in for a treat. Definitely more of a divey vibe and they are very busy. We tried to ordered drinks but never could because of how rushed everything was. Food wise, we enjoyed everything we had including the vegetarian bowl that was ordered.
Our main reason for choosing Han Gang was so one of our group could get her favorite seafood and scallion pancake that she's talked about for years. Manager Linda and server Olivia were very attentive and, with our two Korean friends, helped choose a varied and delicious selection of dishes that we all loved. For quality and service, Han Gang can't be beat. And we were all surprised that our feast was only $23 each, including tax and gratuity.
Honey pig is one of my families favorite restaurant. We are so happy one opened in Ashburn. The food is even better which is amazing. Service is really freindly and good. I lived in Korea for two years and this is authenticate Korean food and Korean style restaurant. My favorite is the Bi Bim Bop with nummy gojuchang sauce. Their Chop chae is the best I've had. I highly recommend this place for an authentic Korean meal.
Amazing service and food. I don't know why this place has less than 5 stars! It's very difficult to go out to eat with infants, but the manager was soooooo accommodating and helpful. They have a private room for reservations and a separate section for big parties. They have dividers between tables, and each person gets their own set of side dishes.

Our server was very attentive, especially to our guest who has food sensitivity. The food was fresh, well prepared, and high quality. We will definitely come back.
