Poppabox - Washington DC

I stopped by for a late lunch and the restaurant wasn't busy at all. I ordered a bulgogi noodle box for around $12, and it was served quickly and hot. The flavor was excellent, with a nice kick of spice, and there was plenty of tender beef. Plus, I got a generous portion of noodles! Overall, I’m very satisfied and would definitely return to try something else with confidence.

Great value, especially considering the area! Our experience was quite memorable. We ordered a poppabox with teriyaki chicken, and I have to say, the chicken was incredibly moist, reminiscent of what you'd get at mall food courts. The portion size for both the rice and chicken was generous, making it easy to share between two people. The box also included a roll of sushi, one piece of tempura shrimp, two pieces of tempura sweet potatoes, and a fruit medley. Overall, you can't beat the price for the amount of food you receive. While I would compare the quality and taste to that of a mall food court, that's not a negative. There are plenty of times when that's exactly what you crave!

I've been traveling to DC for work lately, and I can't recommend this place highly enough. If you're a fan of Korean cuisine—like Bibimbap, breakfast sandwiches, noodle bowls, dumplings, burritos, or any type of street food—you absolutely have to check it out. They serve breakfast until about 10:30 AM, offering a delightful variety of options such as waffle sandwiches, croissant sandwiches, bagel sandwiches, and more. As someone from Jersey who enjoys a BEC on a Kaiser roll, I can say that Poppa takes the BEC to a whole new level. They have a special deal for two bulgogi (Korean barbecue beef) egg and cheese sandwiches with fries for around $10, but most dishes are priced around $8. Sharing a bowl with a good friend is a great idea, as the portions are quite filling. During lunchtime, you'll find fantastic choices like bibimbap, noodle bowls, bulgogi cheesesteaks, and more. Everything I've tried has been delicious. I've visited six times in one week, sampling different dishes each time, and I can't wait to explore the rest of the menu. Give this place a visit—you won't be disappointed!

The bibimbap and bulgogi dishes are great. The wraps are always satisfying with half left over for dinner. It's like being in Seoul on a Saturday night again.
