Yasijang — Restaurant in Annandale

We had heard positive feedback about this restaurant, so we decided to visit for dinner, and it lived up to our expectations. The interior featured beautiful Korean traditional paintings, cultural artifacts, and a variety of plants, creating an inviting atmosphere. The staff greeted us warmly upon our arrival, which added to the overall welcoming experience.

The ordering process is quite convenient; you can either press a call button on the wall or have a staff member assist you at your table after you’ve reviewed the menu. We enjoyed all the dishes, with commendable taste, quality, and portion sizes. The Tonkatsu stood out with its generous size and thick pork, though we felt the sauce covering the pork cutlet was a bit excessive. The pan-fried seafood udon was also excellent and would pair wonderfully with drinks. The grilled intestine was comforting, just as expected, and melted in the mouth. The beef pancake's seasoning was perfect, and the fishcakes and rice cakes in the soup offered the ideal comfort for colder weather. We appreciated the attentive and friendly service and were pleased to have dined at...

Visited on a weekend evening and was surprised to see only four tables occupied, including ours. While we were waiting, two tables finished and left, so by the time our food arrived, it was just us and one other table who seemed to be friends with the staff or owner.

Despite the restaurant being quiet, it took over 30 minutes for our food to come out, and we hadn’t ordered anything that should take long to prepare. It felt like the staff were more focused on chatting with familiar faces than attending to customers, which might explain the delay.

We also noticed someone possibly staff or the owner smoking outside and then returning to serve customers without much delay. It felt a bit off, as hygiene is really important in a restaurant setting.

The food was tasty, but overall, the experience didn’t leave a strong impression. I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to...

I come often because the food is authentic. However I will not be returning after today's visit. We were there for dinner at 6:40pm and there were only two tables (including us) and as I was waiting for my food there was this unpleasant smell and I looked over and noticed the lady with a pink hat (SHAME ON YOU!!!) sitting at the other table was SMOKING. I called the server and asked if they allowed smoking indoors and he said vaping was allowed. It seemed very obvious that he didn't care about hygiene or air quality or the health of non smokers. As I was leaving, I noticed the pink hat lady had a dog on her lap. Is this even legal? I'll be reporting this to the health dept but in the meantime, STAY AWAY FROM THIS...
