Joongmi Banjum - Manassas: Authentic Korean-Chinese Noodles and More

Just love this place as this restaurant is nearby my place; no need to drive to Annandale. I am Korean; originally from Korea and know what Chinese-Korean food are. Tasted tons of these types of food in my entire life. It's actually way better than ones in Korea. Beyond expectation and exceptional taste to be honest. Visited this place several time either by myself or with friends. Every single time when visited they are nice and all different menu were great. Jjampong, yusansul, fried rice and samsun jjajang were best of the best. The price on the menu is reasonable and the portion is great as well. I would be say if their price would go up.

Joongmi Banjum is a Chinese influenced Korean restaurant. It's standard fare for this type of restaurant: jjajangmyun (noodles in black bean sauce), jjampong (spicy seafood noodle soup), tang soo yuk (sweet & sour pork), etc. with a twist! At some of these restaurants, you can get 1/2 and 1/2 (i.e. 1/2 jjajangmyun, 1/2 jjampong). At Joongmi Banjum, you can get 1/3, 1/3, 1/3! How often are you eyeing your friend's dish and want a little bit of it yourself? Here you can get the best of three worlds. In your three=part bowl, you can also choose other items including mandoo (dumplings), bokeum bap (fried rice), and more. I tried the jjajangmyun, jjampong, tang soo yuk combo. Of the three, the tang soo yuk was the best, the jjajangmyun was a little weak. You order at the counter, find a seat, and your food comes out in 10-15 minutes. No table service, but I like it better that way.

Today's lunch was a culinary leap of faith at Joongmi Banjum in Manassas, where I blindly picked Jam Bong off the menu, lured by the siren song of seafood in a picture. And, oh, what a serendipitous choice it was! The soup arrived looking like a spring afternoon in a bowl: a vibrant red, bursting with spices that wafted up to greet me, promising warmth and zest. Diving in, the flavors were as rich and complex as a tapestry, each spoonful an ode to the sea and the earth's bounties. The noodles, kimchi, and pickled radish on the side played backup singers to the soup's lead vocal, each complementing the other in this harmonious meal. And can we talk about the packaging? Sealed like a boba cup, the soup was a no-leak, no-fuss affair that kept everything piping hot and fresh, defying the odds of delivery. This wasn't just lunch; it was an experience that left me both sated and intrigued, already plotting my next visit to Joongmi Banjum for another delicious surprise.

yum!!! took a little bit to come here for centerville but it was easy to find. walk in and you order at the counter and it's self service were you can grab your utensils, bowls, water, etc. it's a clean place with enough tables! big menu and there is also bibim bbap and some chinese items (lomein, chicken broccoli, etc). you can also order half and half or 3 diff items in smaller portions. we enjoyed each dish and the kan poong shrimp was the best! full sized big shrimp and super tender. will come back again with my family next time!

Great food and service! This is one of the best place where you can enjoy korean-Chinese decent food. Nice ambiance!

Delicious food!! I'm so happy this place is in manassas. I love the triple combo and the fact that you can literally mix and match anything. It's self service and there was literally no option to tip. You pay at the counter and they bring you the food and you put away your tray! The ladies who took our order were super nice and pleasant. There is seating, but not a lot! Place seems clean and the food is spot on. We got ttangsooyook, jjamppong and fried rice combo, and jjajjang myun. All very delicious! Definitely coming back.

They claimed this the best Korean-Chinese restaurant in VA. They do have unquiet Korean Chinese combo dishes, but not sure they are the best in VA since I don't live in this area. I ordered the TC-1 triple combo with Jja Jang Myun, Jjam Bbong and Tang Soo Yook. It came with dry noodle, seafood soup noodle and tangy sweet pork slightly fried. The flavor was great the noodle soup has a great kick. They only served two small side dishes, which was the only area that needs some improvement. 4 will be more like the Korean Banchan.

I am so excited they opened a location in Manassas!! The staff were so friendly and nice. I really enjoyed my food! When you dine in you can get a puck 3 combo. I got fried dumplings, jjangmyun and fried rice. They were all good but the fried rice was delicious, just like my grandma used to make. If you enjoy Korean Chinese food it's worth checking out or just for a new experience!! Inside are casual tables and chairs, very clean.

Good option for manassas. Pretty similar to jangwon in Centreville. Looks like they just opened so took a little longer to get our food. They also looked like they were struggling with their POS and ordering system. The Tang Soo Yook 탕수육 is on the chewier/softer side, whereas jangwon's is crunchier. Both are good IMO. Enjoyed my fried rice too. Overall a good option when I'm in the area, and don't want to drive to Centreville or Annandale.
