O My Chicken to open in Dice Burger spot
The former Dice Burger spot at 7023 Columbia Pike in Annandale is going to be a new restaurant called O My Chicken, confirms the new tenant, Eddie Sohn.
Sohn owns O My Hot Pot & Bar on Annandale Road. He expects O My Chicken to open in two or three months. He hasn’t finalized the menu yet but is planning to serve rotisserie chicken and wings among other things. Dice Burger closed last fall.

Scanning this blog, here is a list of the last ten cuisine additions to this community:
1. O My Chicken
2. Taco Bamba
3. K-Market Vendors
4. Jake's Ice Cream
5. Incheon Restaurant
6. Taco SSAM
7. 9292 Korean BBQ
8. Amazon Fresh
9. Gom Shabu Hot Pot
10. Mochi Donuts
This means that seven out of every ten (70%) new restaurants/food establishments here only serve one specific cuisine style. Is there seriously such little demand for even a slight increase in the diversity of new businesses here?
Yes. And why bother raising the point, most people think it’s great.
Whose job is it to open a restaurant in a neighborhood? As I have encouraged before, open up a place that meets your needs. I happen to like sushi, Korean, tacos…I can probably eat everyday at a new place and be happy.
When you live in Little-Korea don't be surprised that 70% of the businesses try to appeal to Korean and Asian crowd.
As a Trans-Muslim-Fem-Les i must admit i do love this community an their culture.

Welcome to Annandale…..the Korean bbq, taco, hot pot and thrift store capital of NoVA.
We have a grand total of two thrift stores. I think Falls Church has six, give it a rest
Well since the County is nt picking up garbage there are always food scraps available!
Only two thrift shops? No worries…Annandale will catch up to Falls Church and surpass their 6 shops in no time. And during that period, we rest assured that at least a dozen or more new Korean bbq and/or hot pot restaurants will be opened in Annandale.
It could make a really good restaurant with all that outdoor dining space, but Annandale only seems to attract the marginal eateries. However, Pinecrest shopping center has been improving its lot of tenants, I love the new taco place.
Indeed, the new Taco place and the American-coffee shop next to it, a pure pleasure.
If you don't like the restaurants that are establishing in the area then why don't you do something about it and open your own.
Amazing how much angry opposition there is to the mere suggestion that this community broaden its cultural horizons by accepting new restaurants and eateries which offer more diverse food options.
I like that this is your takeaway, and not the fact that the comments about Korean restaurants are derisive thinly veiled complaints about our area demographic composition.
Broadening its cultural horizons? If that's your goal, then how about supporting the need for restaurants that serve something other than Korean bbq, hot pot, sushi, or tacos because this area is overflowing with those.
And the comments aren't derisive….they're merely stating the obvious. It's a fact that the vast majority of restaurants in Annandale server Asian or Latin cuisine (fast food doesn't count).
I do think that there is a demand for not-totally-fast food and for more sit-down restaurants. I know that I don't have the talent to run a restaurant but I wish that those that do understand that the demand isn't simply for more taco, sushi et al establishments and they may have even more success going further and having more eat-in (hoping for COVID normal operations)… I like the diversity but not the fast food quality. Think Mosaic type stuff here…
O My Hot Pot is high quality and great service. I expect O My Chicken to be of the same caliber. Looking forward to it.
The food at many Annandale restaurants is not fast food quality, you just don’t like it, lol
Recent census data indicates there is no ethnic group in Annandale which represents 70% of the population. Annandale's population actually represents many different ethnicities, and it is not just a haven for one in particular. Therefore, it is probable that these new business additions don't reflect the true demand here. It would be interesting to know how these new businesses are chosen, whether (and why) any other businesses were rejected, and what role local government may play in influencing who becomes a tenant. The data suggest there's an over-representation of one group.
If there wasn’t demand, they’d go out of business. There isn’t some secret cabal of individuals deciding to fill Annandale with Asian restaurants.
If there were seven out of ten Italian restaurants/pizza places, it would be the same situation. The community would clamor for more diverse food options. The point isn't disparaging a single culture, it's increasing choice, reflective of the people who live here.
Exactly the point, I believe Adam and everyone else who lives in Annandale feels! This discussion seems to have gone left quickly about unnecessary assumptions about ethnicity diversity in our community versus the real comments/intent about food diversity options.
Any updates for this location? Lots of changes to the exterior lately but this post was projecting an opening a year ago.
Ate there twice. Food and service good but blasting rap music with lots of N words. Told the server who apologized and said he’d changed the music. 5 min later more offensive rap back on. Music totally doesn’t fit the clientele. Puzzling and disappointing. Not for families. Customer obviously not their priority. Not going back.
