I really want to give a better rating, but that wouldnt be fair to the other restaurants I reviewed. Heard a few good things about its lunch buffet, but I came here for dinner and lets just say there are a lot of better places. I think one of the advantage it has over other Korean restaurant is that this place is a lot more spacious. Other than that, Im not really sure what else I can praise on it. My boyfriend and I ordered a seafood pancake, a bibimbap and a rice bowl with sashimi (dont recall the proper name). The server barely spoke English (not that I have a problem with it, but) and he just wrote down the line items we pointed at on the menu and nodded at everything. My friends ordered a few things, and a relatively expensive dish of pork belly. My seafood pancake and bibimbap arrived, and on the other table, the server was grilling my friends 4 strips of pork belly (considering a $16 dish, thats $4 per strip!!) and he said it doesnt taste any better than pork belly at other restaurants. I was waiting for a while for my sashimi rice bowl and I finally asked the waiter if they are still working on it, and he came back saying something which I interpreted as they no longer serve sushi for the rest of the day, and I was pretty upset because he nodded at me when I ordered (so I assume he took my order, right?) and made me waited 20 minutes to tell me they cannot make me one.

사람차별하는식당. 저녁시간에 갈비만 먹으란법 있음? 아이가 있으니까 돈이 안될것같나? 갈비안먹고 다른음식 먹는다고하니까 넉넉한자리에서 한명 모자란자리로 옮겨줌. 한명은 입구에 앉아야함. 서빙은 어떻게 할건데!!! 이유인즉 만~약에 단체로 갈비먹으러 오는사람들 있으면 그방을 줘야한다면서... 예약된것도 아니고 만약을 위해서 있는손님 개무시? 결국 갈비단체손님은 오지 않았음.

Phenomenal cuisine! The Kalbi is the best Ive EVER ate in a restaurant and the kimchi soup is also the best soup Ive EVER had! Korean is my wifes and Is favorite food and none of the other Korean restaurants can touch this place, especially Honey Pig, which we were "One & Done" at that place! Weve been to about a dozen Korean restaurants in the DMV, and todays dining (last time I ate at Sorak Garden was 3-4 years ago) was head and shoulders above all of the other places! Their chef is ridiculous!!! Wish I woulda tasted the soup there! I woulda ordered a ton more to bring home! I cant wait for my next visit!

I went for the lunch buffet. They seated us with strangers, even though there were plenty of tables. Maybe they were saving space for large groups that might come later, but who knows. I dislike eating so close to strangers and hearing their conversations. The service was non-existent and the waitress never returned to my table after seating us. Most of all, the food was bad. The meat tasted old and was tough. All of the dishes were too salty. Plus there were few food choices. The sushi selection consisted of a few basic rolls. What a disappointment.

Beware when eating here. Went as a group for lunch. paying for our meal was a disaster and took forever. - charged us for dinner price instead of lunch price for some dishes. Took forever for them to correct the bill - we gave a combination of cash and cc - wrote out charges for each card. Owner took all the cash as tip (30% tip?!) and charged the shortage to one of the credit cards and accused us of not leaving enough money. None of us will be going back.

We were a bit disappointed with Sorak. Food is average; certainly not notable. Quality and preparation arent as top-notch as elsewhere. Service is friendly. Space is a bit dated. When the line at Honey Pig is hours long Sorak is an easy fallback (though it will surely be disappointing after planning for Honey Pig). Prices are reasonable and portions are on the larger size, so if nothing else youll come away feeling full for a fair price.

I dont know really what these other people are saying. The food there is always great. I may be white but my friend who is Korean says the food is great. I can appreciate the service which is great, fast, very courteous. Im also a regular there and it has never disappointed me. Just dont get the Chinese food while youre there, sushi buffet is great.

Went to the lunch buffet. They had a decent variety of Korean foods in the hot section, as well as a passable sushi selection. The only reason I didnt rate it higher is because many of the hot items simply werent hot, nor very fresh. This was my first time there. Maybe they had an off day, but Id be hesitant to try again.

I have been here three times and I love it! The food portions are HUGE and I actually like the service. Last time I went, the manager gave us a free platter to sample. This place was recommended by a family friend who served in Korea. The food is amazing, service good, and portions large. Priced right

Its clean and the food is great. All the dishes that I had here were decent or awesome. The only downside is that my party is often seated right next to strangers when there are plenty of other tables nearby. The waitress was rude and incompetent but the food was worth it.

It is very refreshing to get outside of DC and find such authentic food. The staff is so kind, and the food comes out so efficiently. I went with only one other person, but the next time I go, Ill be back with a group. The portions are great for sharing!

Food was good but service was slow. Little pricey for the amount of food you get for dinner. There lunch buffet is still a good value.

Nice hole in the wall type place. Lunch buffet was good. Sushi and short ribs. Had a cold draft while sitting so wear your coat!

Lunch buffet was $14, kind of pricey in my opinion, but they have a decent spread of fresh sushi so not too bad.

The kalbi lunch special does not come with lettuce and they charge 2.99 for 3 leaves of lettuce. Really?
