Manna Korean BBQ & Dosirak Washington DC: Korean Flavor in DC

If you’re craving authentic Korean flavors in Washington, DC, Manna Korean BBQ & Dosirak is an excellent spot to visit. Tucked in Northeast DC, this casual eatery blends Korean BBQ, boxed dosirak meals, hearty soups, and lunch specials for locals and visitors alike.

What Makes Manna Stand Out

  • Korean BBQ & Dosirak combo: Many patrons order the Manna Box that includes grilled meat (or seafood), steamed rice, side dishes (banchan), and japchae (sweet potato noodles). The balance of protein, vegetables, and sides in one package makes it ideal for a filling lunch or dinner.

  • Generous portions & fair price: Reviewers note that the serving sizes are generous relative to cost.

  • Authentic flair: With over 30 years of Korean cooking experience behind them, Manna aims to bring genuine Korean taste to DC’s dining scene.

  • Variety of menu items: In addition to BBQ boxes, you’ll find classic Korean fare—bibimbap, dumplings, stews, and seasonal soups.

What to Try

  • Manna Box with Japchae: A standout among regulars, combining vegetables, glass noodles, and a protein in one satisfying package.

  • Grilled Beef Bulgogi or Spicy Pork: Great options if you love BBQ flavor with just a hint of char and marinade.

  • Bibimbap & Dosirak bowls: Perfect for a lighter but still flavorful meal.

  • Side dishes & kimchi: Always fresh and a necessary complement to any Korean meal.

Atmosphere & Service

Manna isn’t a large sit-down restaurant—it has a modest interior with limited seating (bar stools or compact tables). Many patrons take advantage of carryout or delivery. Service is generally quick and friendly.
