Vit Goel Tofu B.b.q. - Annandale

If I could give 10 stars, I would!! This place was amazing!! My first experience at an authentic Korean Soup place and I cannot wait to go back! We went on a cold rainy day and it was perfect to sip on delicious spicy tofu soup! They give a ton of side dishes that are refilled which complimented the meal perfectly! These people are very efficient and bring your food out super quickly! My favorite thing was the fresh raw egg they serve which you crack directly into the soup that is served boiling! It cooks the egg nicely and is so yummy! I had the vegetarian mushroom soup which was delicious! For it being veggie, i was surprised at the amount of flavor it had! This place was very spacious and open with a ton of tables! Despite it looking small from the outside, the inside can hold many parties!

This restaurant was a total letdown and a waste of $50. The only redeeming quality was the ambiance, which was cool and cultural. The service was just average, with servers appearing uninterested and slow to attend to customers. As for the food, it was bland and disappointing, completely missing the vibrant flavors typical of Korean cuisine. The bibimbap was soggy and lacking in taste, while the kimchi tasted like it came from a store and lacked freshness. Although the portion sizes were quite generous, the poor quality of the food made that irrelevant. To top it off, the prices were unreasonable. Overall, I would advise staying away from this place.

Very tasty Korean spot for my Caucasian palate. Growing up, I had a few Korean friends whose houses I ate at regularly. This spot come very close to those meals. The tofu soup was savory and earthy. Medium wasn't very spicy and I will get spicier next time. I mainly ate the Galbi and the meat was super tender however I personally found it a bit sweet. Bulgogi was little dryer than I prefer. Dumplings and pancake were also very solid. Hot and fresh. Ambience was very relaxed and felt welcoming. Staff was attentive and offered more sides when they were running low.

Took away from the crowds, this is one of those places that you have to know about beforehand. They have the best kimchi that I have tried at a restaurant, the soups are amazing, and the bibambap was very unique. I will be coming back.

I love lighthouse tofu! It's a no frills, authentic and homey feeling experience. The tofu soup here is so comforting and flavorful. You can select from so many different types of proteins just be careful on the spice level because it can get pretty hot!
