In fact it has some of NoVa&#8217;s very best ethnic dishes. At first I thought it would be a kind of mom and pop, like the Vietnamese places which do spiced crawfish. But it&#8217;s not, rather it is a fine and innovative restaurant, with a trendy look. The jambalaya, the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ssam\">ssam<\/a> (get it with prime rib), and the Korean sliders are some of the best dishes around, period. Everything else is good or at least fun. And there is nowhere else like it around. It&#8217;s not mom and pop cheap, but for the quality of what you get, and the quality of the ingredients, it is more than reasonably priced. Definitely recommended.<\/p>\n<h3 class='related_post_title'>Related Posts:<\/h3><ul class='related_post'><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/one-reason-why-the-seoul-dining-scene-still-has-so-many-nooks-and-crannies\/\" title=\"One reason why the Seoul dining scene still has so many nooks and crannies\">One reason why the Seoul dining scene still has so many nooks and crannies<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/9292-korean-bbq\/\" title=\"9292 Korean BBQ\">9292 Korean BBQ<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/saffron-house-of-kabob\/\" title=\"Saffron House of Kabob\">Saffron House of Kabob<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/a-taste-of-burma-2\/\" title=\"A Taste of Burma\">A Taste of Burma<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com\/index.php\/meokja-meokja\/\" title=\"Meokja Meokja\">Meokja Meokja<\/a><\/li><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mokomandy, web site, 20789 Great Falls Plaza, Sterling, VA, 571-313-0505, Korean and Cajun.
