Update: I have been here 2-3 times in the past week and tried a couple different items off the menu. The fried chicken with sliced green onions is very good. It's smothered in a sweet, tangy sauce and the chicken is super crispy. We also tried the spicy rice cake with ramen noodles. It was soooo spicy and the rice cakes were very mushy... blech! I wouldn't get that again. We also had the fried pork cutlets. They were amazing! It comes with fried rice, french fries and a side salad (cabbage not lettuce, so it was very crunchy). The pork was marinated perfectly and was packed with flavor. I would definitely come back again for the food. I think the ramen is a little overpriced though.
Currently they are running a special, so if you order $50 worth of food they will give you a coupon for an hour of free karaoke (valid M-Thu).
Absolutely disgusting. I order nagasaki ramen and this spicy soup. THEY PUT SO MUCH MSG. ALL OF US GOT ALLERGIC REACTION! I had to suffer 2-3 days. You guys should be glad I didn't sue you.. wth?? You guys have to use that much MSG in order to make food because you don't know how to cook? If you are used to how majority of korean restaurants put massive amount of MSG, you will like it. If you know how real food is supposed to taste like, you will be swollen next morning :) Not because of alcohol. I thought NO ONE EVER COULD BEAT the amount of MSG Vit goel uses... well this place does lol.
Review Source:Let me be totally honest: I went to Gangnam Style for the name. Deep down, I could have cared less if the food was good, I just wanted to hop on Twitter and tell my friends "HEY! I'm eating at Gangnam Style!".
But what I found was one of the most amazing restaurants. A friend joined me, and together we had a fantastic experience.
The menus are not in English, but according to our waiter, English versions are coming in about 1-2 weeks as of this review. Ryan, our waiter, was patient with us, went over the menu and made suggestions based on our preferences. He was patient, understanding and really took the time to help us find amazing choices. So kudos to him. Ryan helped make the dining experience stand out.
I ended up with an amazing seafood noodle dish and my friend got tempura-style chicken with a sauce that was outright immaculate. I can't tell you the names of what we ordered. I really have no idea. If this was the final question on Who Wants to be a Millionaire I'd probably stand up, and walk off stage. I seriously have no idea what it was that we ate, but I can tell you that it was some of the best, most flavorful food I'd had. Everything was outstanding. The flavors were distinct and subtle, delicious, yet never overpowering.
Gangnam offered complimentary soup that reminded me somewhat of a spicy-miso and plenty of kimchi. The kimchi was good, fresh and not too spicy, but definitely hit the spot. The proportions were massive, and there was more than enough to go around.
We'll definitely be back, and with friends. We had a great time, great food and the service was top notch.
Formerly known as Cafe Lime, Gangnam Style is now under new management. I went here with my friends and we were very impressed with the food and overall service. The menu selection and pricing are quite reasonable (compared to Shikgek/Pocha and Lulu's nearby) My fave menu items so far are dongkatsu jjampong, udon salad, crispy chicken, and tangsooyook to name a few. Nom nom~!
This is my new go-to place in Centreville!
