OUR APPROACH

Hospitality first.
Craft, always.

At a Korean table, the meal belongs to everyone: a collection of shared plates, seasonal accompaniments, and the care of a host. In the American steakhouse, the attention turns to the cut, its character, and the details of its preparation.

At Seoul Prime, these aren't competing ideas. They shape every part of the evening—from the welcome to the last course.

01CULTURE / THE KOREAN TABLE

A tradition of sharing.

In Korean dining culture, the table is composed of more than a main course. Banchan and shared dishes bring different flavors, textures, and opportunities to enjoy food together. Hospitality is expressed through that generosity—and through the attention given to every guest.

The generosity of the Korean table
FROM OUR MENU/ 01

Korean Style Chilled Bossam

Our braised pork belly is served with perilla leaves, Korean pear, and complementary ingredients and condiments. Assemble each bite differently: it is a dish built for discovery around a shared table.

02CRAFT / THE AMERICAN STEAKHOUSE

Understanding the cut.

USDA Prime grading recognizes abundant marbling, but a steak is more than its grade. Muscle structure, fat distribution, and aging all influence flavor and texture. Dry aging can concentrate flavor and alter tenderness; a ribeye cap behaves differently from a short rib or a leaner cut. Those differences deserve attention.

Marbling / aging / structure
FROM OUR MENU/ 02

Prime Steak Tour

Four distinct USDA Prime expressions—Dry-Aged Ribeye, Dry-Aged Ribeye Cap, Prime Short Rib, and Marinated Prime Galbi—invite comparison rather than a single definition of what makes a great steak.

03TECHNIQUE / TABLESIDE GRILLING

Precision at the table.

The grill has long been a center of Korean dining. At Seoul Prime, our team tends it for you. Heat management, surface browning, and the rendering of fat each affect the result. Different cuts call for different timing and attention, allowing the ingredient—not the cooking process—to remain the focus of the evening.

Heat / time / texture
FROM OUR MENU/ 03

American Wagyu Ribeye Cap

Known for its generous marbling and rich texture, the ribeye cap offers a compelling example of why careful heat control matters. A flavorful exterior should complement, not overpower, the cut’s natural character.

04TRADITION / THE BALANCE OF FLAVOR

Beyond the main course.

The Korean table offers contrast throughout the meal. Richness finds balance in fermented depth, fresh vegetables, rice, and soup. Accompaniments aren't an afterthought: they change how each bite is experienced, especially alongside richly marbled beef.

Acidity / freshness / savory depth

Soybean Brisket Stew

Brisket, fermented soybean paste, zucchini, onion, and tofu create a deeply savory and comforting dish. Served alongside the rest of the table, it offers a different kind of richness and a connection to Korean home-style cooking.

05IDENTITY / TWO TRADITIONS

Familiar craft.
A Korean perspective.

The meeting of these traditions extends beyond the grill. We draw from familiar steakhouse techniques and Korean ingredients where the pairing makes sense—not fusion for its own sake, but dishes with a clear purpose and their own character.

Raw USDA Prime ribeye meets sesame, Korean pear, egg yolk, fried seaweed, and shallots. Crisp sweetness, nutty depth, and savory flavor bring a distinctly Korean perspective to a classic steakhouse preparation.

The Seoul Prime experience

Two traditions.
One experience.

The generosity of Korean hospitality. The craftsmanship of the American steakhouse. Together, they define how we select our ingredients, prepare our food, and welcome our guests.

Our story

A Korean steakhouse,
made for the present.

Since opening in Falls Church in 2024, our restaurant has been a place to explore familiar traditions from a different perspective: Korean hospitality expressed through the care and precision of a contemporary steakhouse.

We hope guests experience that idea in the details—whether sharing a new dish, discovering a favorite cut, or finding time for a celebration worth remembering.

Portrait of Andrew
Front of the House Manager

Andrew

Andrew Ha graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in Marketing, but found his true calling in hospitality. He started at Seoul Prime as a server, and it didn't take long for his commitment to the craft, and to the people around him, to open the door to greater responsibility.

Andrew believes great restaurants aren't built on menus or margins, but on people. Whether he's coaching a new team member, building out a high-performing team, or shaping a guest's experience from the moment they walk in, he's driven by a genuine desire to help others grow into the best version of themselves. His leadership comes down to one idea: when people feel valued, empowered, and supported, exceptional hospitality follows naturally.

Today, as Front of House Manager at Seoul Prime, Andrew is focused on building a culture where professionalism and genuine care for one another go hand in hand. He takes real pride in developing the next generation of hospitality leaders, raising the bar on service, and creating moments that stick with people, guests and team members alike.

Through it all, Andrew is dedicated to executing management's vision, shaping Seoul Prime into one of the premier dining destinations in the DMV, one guest, one team member, and one service at a time.
