I've been traveling to DC for work lately, and I can't recommend this place highly enough. If you're a fan of Korean cuisine—like Bibimbap, breakfast sandwiches, noodle bowls, dumplings, burritos, or any type of street food—you absolutely have to check it out. They serve breakfast until about 10:30 AM, offering a delightful variety of options such as waffle sandwiches, croissant sandwiches, bagel sandwiches, and more. As someone from Jersey who enjoys a BEC on a Kaiser roll, I can say that Poppa takes the BEC to a whole new level. They have a special deal for two bulgogi (Korean barbecue beef) egg and cheese sandwiches with fries for around $10, but most dishes are priced around $8. Sharing...
Great value, especially considering the area! Our experience was quite memorable. We ordered a poppabox with teriyaki chicken, and I have to say, the chicken was incredibly moist, reminiscent of what you'd get at mall food courts. The portion size for both the rice and chicken was generous, making it easy to share between two people. The box also included a roll of sushi, one piece of tempura shrimp, two pieces of tempura sweet potatoes, and a fruit medley. Overall, you can't beat the price for the amount of food you receive. While I would compare the quality and taste to that of a mall food court, that's not a negative. There are plenty of times when that's exactly what you crave!
Nice place to sit back and eat a good meal. They have an assortment of different boxes to try (I got the beef bulgogi) that comes with rice, California rolls, and mixed tempura. I've seen a lot of people posting about their boba, but when I asked the server, she didn't know what I was talking about. Maybe they no longer serve it? A little pricey as my box was $15, but its so much food that it's worth it- you could easily make 2 meals out of one order. Definitely coming back when I'm in the area again!
I stopped by for a late lunch and the restaurant wasn't busy at all. I ordered a bulgogi noodle box for around $12, and it was served quickly and hot. The flavor was excellent, with a nice kick of spice, and there was plenty of tender beef. Plus, I got a generous portion of noodles! Overall, I’m very satisfied and would definitely return to try something else with confidence.

If you like Asian food and are on a budget, this is the eatery for you. The spicy pork noodle box $11.49) was really good and the portion was very generous. I had bottled peach tea with my meal, then got a Matcha Blossom milk tea $5.25) to drink as I walked to the nearby Textile Museum. Popular with students, it's not very crowded if you go before noon.
My wife and I visited Poppa Box for the first time, and we absolutely loved it. The ambiance was charming, the food was authentically delicious, and the music added to the enjoyable atmosphere. When we return to DC, we will definitely come back to this restaurant. Thank you for the excellent service and the fantastic food selection! Rating: 5/5.
The food was decent; the chicken was fresh. If you're ordering the bun, I recommend getting two because the portions are quite large. Overall, I'd give the food a rating of 4 out of 5.
One of my favorite places in the area. The portions are generous, and overall, it's a well-priced restaurant with a fantastic variety of food available. Food: 5/5

The bibimbap and bulgogi dishes are great. The wraps are always satisfying with half left over for dinner. It's like being in Seoul on a Saturday night again.
