I 'll be the first to admit that I 'm a bit of a soondubu jjigae addict, so when I learned that there was a tofu house right here in the DMV area, I knew I had to make my way there immediately. Sure, Lighthouse Tofu can 't compare to the likes of BCD TofuHouse or a tofu stew from a Korean ahjumma 's kitchen, but it sure comes pretty darn close. The soondubu jjigae is absolutelydelicious, comforting, and cozy. You really can 't go wrong with any of their variations I 've tried their kimchi, vegetable,and mushroom choices, and each one has been packed with flavor and deliciousness. I haven 't had the opportunity to test theirmeat or seafood options, but with a base stew that 's so incredibly f...
Phenomenal tofu soup! Spacious and clean restaurant. It was busy on Saturday but no wait for a table. The menu is short and simple. The kimchi is tasty and not overpowering. We got oyster and mushroom tofu soup, seafood pancake, and otopus noodle. Even with plain soup, the tofu pot was very flavorful. My friend was a bit disappointed at the mushroom soup since it only had one type of mushrooms. I didn't like the otopus dish's flavor, it feels flat despite being spicy. Just a
I have to admit, I'm a big fan of soondubu jjigae, so when I discovered that Lighthouse Tofu had a tofu house in the DMV area, I had to visit immediately. While Lighthouse Tofu's soondubu jjigae may not surpass BCD Tofu House or a traditional Korean home-cooked stew, it certainly comes very close. The dish is flavorful, comforting, and welcoming. I've sampled several options from their menu and have never been disappointed.
Lighthouse Tofu is an excellent spot for tofu stew. The menu is somewhat limited but includes options like bibimbap. They serve hot tea instead of iced water, and the side dishes are flavorful. I tried the combination tofu stew, but next time I'll opt for the seafood version, as the beef was tough and the combination wasn’t as enjoyable as the seafood alone.

The place is so small. The tables were so close to each other. We had Tofu soup, it was okay, but the soup bowl and soup container looked dirty to me. I had a combination of seafood. Tofu soup, which contains one shrimp, 2 thin slices of beef, and 5 clams and full of mashed Tofu and a bowl of rice. After I ate the soup, I had a stomach ache. Go figure!
This place is amazing!! Nothing better on a cold winter day! The spicy level soup isnt too spicy, just a stronger kim chi flavor, which isnt spicy IMO. But delicious! We also ordered a mild soup so our son would eat it, the veggie pancake and bulgogi. Everything is always delicious here!
Lighthouse Tofu is a wonderful place to enjoy a meal, rain or shine! Every dish I tried was flavorful and served piping hot. My favorites are the kimchi beef tofu soup and the stir-fried noodles with octopus and vegetables. I definitely suggest giving these two a try when you visit.
Had a fantastic meal here with friends. The service is great and the food is delicious. The Chayote is all I can think about now. They accommodated my sesame allergy, which I am so thankful for. Truly an amazing restaurant to stop by and check out! You won?t be disappointed.

Great place to stop by to eat on a raining day! Or any day... everything was hot and with lots of favor. I always get the kimchi beef tofu soup and the stir fried noodles with octopus and veggies whenever I eat here. If you decide to stop by, definitely trythose two dishes!
I've been looking for authentic Korean tofu in the DC area and this is it! The soon and bulgogi were great and I will definitely be back. There is ample parking out front and in back and the staff were nice and attentive.
