This place is massive and never seems to be short of available seats. Their tofu is delicious, fresh, and piping hot! Also, their tap water is barley water on ice and it's the best.

Best kimchi I've had since living in Korea! The tofu soups are on point as well ... this is now my tofu soup spot !

Lighthouse Tofu for best Korean soups and Seafood pancake . Quick service . Great hostesses . Our family loves it.

Yes, you're here for the soondubu jjigae (tofu soup ) but don't pass on the $19.99 galbi . It's well worth it! The area is a bit shady, don't leave valuables in your car. Sign at the door warns you too.

My seafood combo soup had one mussel , 3-4 pieces of diced clam , and two head-on shrimp . It was still a filling bowl of soup , but if order it, don't expect much seafood , and be aware of the shrimp .

While the soondubu is the star of the menu, there are other gems. The selection of pa jun—egg-and-scallion pancakes with seafood , kimchee , or vegetables—make for good additions to the table.

For the spice sensitive diner , be warned that a "medium" is STILL pretty spicy ! Order "mild" to be on the safe side. Otherwise, everything is quite tasty and satisfying here :)

Cori Green

The Medium is a safe bet. I like it hot, but sometimes, I wonder if they even measure. Perfect on a cold day.

Janie-Lynn

Their seafood or kimchee soondooboo never disappoints. Be sure to pop the raw egg in and stir so the egg can cook a bit in the hot stone pot.

Reony Tonneyck

I got #7 tofu soup . Simple and delicious. Their pickled bon Chon is so dang good!

Anthony Nguyen

Everything on the menu is worth trying at least once. Love this place

Christine Mach

Seafood pancake and spicy noodles with squid

Eric Jaehwang Kim

Combo meal is good. They do not accept amex.

Erica L

Great food BUT beware the kimchi side dish is the kind with oyster sauce ! Yuck!

son

They expanded!! Now with more seating!

Danny

Break the egg in your boiling pot and let it cook in the soup . Goodness.

Julie Housh

If you're with a group, order a large seafood pa jun with your sundubu.

Mike

Remodelled .. Lots of space now!

Tina T

Best kalbi and tofu soup in town !

Hae Jin Y

they renovated and the place is larger now

Jane Avriette

Leave nothing in your car and be careful with it after dark. They've had a ton of breakins.

Kevin Dang

Food was okay, service was shitty so we didn't tip. Lady ran out to my car and knocked on the window to ask for tip and we gave her 10%, she said we needed 15%. Like wtf who does that...

Feng Ding

Tofu soup !

Mike Fulk

Seafood pancake

Sandy Avriette

Potato Pankcake!

Glen Leong

Gotta try the combination #3!!

Kryofroyo

Medium is really not spicy at all. If you want any kick in your flavor you gotta ask for the hot

Yong Kwon

Not bad. Not great. Filling.

Diana

Delicious!

Debbie Aston

Worst service ever. Food was just ok. Not worth going back for. Save your money. Lots of better places in Annandale.
