About the shop
The Korean table Virginia Beach keeps coming back to.
Tasty Korean BBQ is a family-owned restaurant at 1255 Fordham Drive in the Kempsville area of Virginia Beach, off Kempsville Road near the Chesapeake line. It has earned a loyal following across the city — more than a hundred and twenty-five public ratings from regulars and first-timers alike — by cooking Korean food without shortcuts.
This is the food a Korean family cooks for itself: marinated bulgogi and galbi, bibimbap in a hot stone bowl, kimchi jjigae and soondubu on a cold day, japchae, and a spread of banchan that changes with what is in the kitchen. Come in, or call and order ahead for pickup.
