Michelin selection.

Good standard.

Brick walls, funky artwork and wood floors offset by greenery await at Anju. The result is a homey-meets-hip space that feels comfy even when jam-packed. The name refers to Korean dishes best enjoyed with alcohol, highlighting a range of sweet, salty and spicy tastes... More info

First time here as I heard great things about this place. Hard to get a reservation on the spot, even a week out. However I showed up at 5:00 when the doors opened and easily found a seat for one. Overall good food, only wish I was a bit hungrier - 7 o'clock is more ideal for a trial testing of their features. I am from Atlanta/Duluth area so we have exceptional Korean food, hands down!! Definitely worth another visit to try their Kimchi Jjigae. Wait service very pleasant.

In New Orleans we have an amazing food scene but not quite the variety of cuisines as DC has, and limited options on good Korean restaurants. So we tried this spot while visiting DC. Nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. We decided to go with the feed me option and it was delicious, basically smaller options of almost everything on the menu. But still a lot of food and they come box it between courses. We really enjoyed our meal, the food and cocktails were amazing. Definitely recommend it! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Thank you for visiting us during your trip to DC and for such a thoughtful review! We're honored that you chose to dine with us, especially coming from a city with such an incredible food culture. We're thrilled you enjoyed the Feed Me experience, cocktails, and hospitality. It's one of our favorite ways for guests to explore the menu, and we're glad it gave you the chance to try a little bit of everything. We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you back the next time you're in Washington!

After hearing only great things about Anju, we finally made it. We got two bar seats and Alex gave us excellent, thoughtful service. There are several gluten free options from the main menu laid out on a gluten free menu if you ask, just to make selections easier. The NA options on the drink menu were impressive as well as the regular cocktail program. The presentation of each dish we ordered impressed us and the flavors were so fresh and complex. Can’t wait to come back to work through the rest of the menu. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $40–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Thank you so much for coming in and for the kind words. We’re glad Alex took great care of you and that the gluten-free and NA options made for an easy, enjoyable experience. It’s great to hear the dishes and flavors stood out—we’ll be sure to share this with the team. Looking forward to having you back soon to explore more of the menu.
