Testimonials

Our Korean BBQ dinner was the best dinner we had all year. I am not being hyperbolic. We loved it so much and can't wait to do it again, for a future special occasion, or a special occasion we invent because we need Caleb and Roren's food in our life more.

C. Polis
Phenomenal evening! The food and wine pairings were incredible, very unique, and pleasing to all of our guests. Roren and Caleb spent significant time and energy customizing the menu to the guest of honor's choosings, and it came across incredibly. No better way to spend an evening with family and friends. You won't get this experience or these flavors at any restaurant in the DMV.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting some friends for an event at our house with Caleb & Roren of The Magpie and The Tiger. Everything was easy to coordinate and set up. They were very accommodating. And from the moment they arrived, it was clear that we were in for an unforgettable evening. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect. The setup was impeccable, complete with bringing their own grill and an array of domestic- and Japanese-sourced meats & sides that left our taste buds dancing with delight. Their thoughtful drink pairings elevated each course, enhancing the overall dining experience. What truly stood out, beyond the amazing food, were their warm personalities and genuine passion for what they do. Their presence and presentation transformed our night into a lively and inviting atmosphere, making us feel like we were part of something truly special. The Magpie and The Tiger's commitment to excellence was showcased through their exceptional service, culinary expertise, and dedication to ensuring every guest had an extraordinary time. If you're looking to elevate any event, I wholeheartedly recommend Roren and Caleb. Their talents go beyond the grill – they create memories that linger long after the last bite.

Roren and Caleb are beyond amazing. Their attention to detail, great attitude, and amazing sourcing provided me with one of the best BBQ experiences I've ever had. They are able to provide you with a restaurant-level experience in your own house that provides a whole new appreciation for Korean cuisine, culture, and traditions, as well as a showcase of their multiple years of expertise. It is always truly a privilege to share with them and cannot recommend this experience enough.

I hired Magpie and the Tiger for a surprise dinner for my wife's birthday. It was a huge success! Not only was the Korean barbecue fantastic, M&T were flexible in helping us plan the party - our group size went from 4 to 14, our menu changed, and on the day of the event, they had to be creative with our kitchen and dining space because we have a small home. But, everything worked out really well, and a number of guests mentioned that the meal and experience was one of the best they ever had and was something they would remember.

Chefs Roren and Caleb helped us host the perfect birthday dinner party. They helped us select a robust menu, shared ingredient details and stories with our dinner guests, and everyone raved about how amazing everything tasted. The guest of honor said he has never felt more special. Can't recommend them enough!

Roren and Caleb were a joy to work with and their food and service made for an unforgettable evening. Roren’s communication made the planning process feel like a true partnership, and her attention to detail ensured that everything ran smoothly night-of. At the dinner, the chefs shared more than just their delicious food – they created a true connection between guests and the experience by telling us the background and inspiration behind every element, from beverage pairing to dish. I hope to have the opportunity to work with Magpie and The Tiger again very soon

I have had the luck and absolute pleasure of knowing Roren and Caleb from their early days at the Magie & the Tiger restaurant. I think I ended up going 3 times in the span of one month because I loved the food so much. It was a sad day when the restaurant closed but I have been so happy and proud to witness the success that these wonderful people have had since then. We had them over for a private dinner to celebrate my birthday and, as usual, they absolutely knocked it out of the park. The food was delicious and both of them really made the whole evening feel so warm and full of great vibes. They bring their full heart into everything that they do, from interacting with their customers/friends to cooking amazing meals. I'm grateful to be able to experience their culinary success as a fan of their food and themselves as individuals.

I've had the incredible opportunity to host Magpie & the Tiger's Korean BBQ private chef event in my home not once, but twice, and each time has been a culinary delight. Roren & Caleb, the talented chefs behind this experience, are not only skilled in their craft but also incredibly warm and friendly, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. The Korean BBQ experience they brought to my home was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment they arrived, the tantalizing aromas filled my kitchen, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening. The attention to detail and dedication to their craft were evident in every aspect of the meal. The quality of the ingredients was exceptional, and it was clear that Roren & Caleb take great pride in sourcing the finest meats and ingredients for their dishes. All the dishes they prepared were outstanding, and the accompaniments were equally delightful. To start the feast, the crispy kimcheesy potato salad was a delicious revelation, setting the perfect tone for the culinary journey ahead. The banchan was a delightful assortment of flavors, and the homemade kimchi was a standout, adding the perfect amount of zing to the meal. The kimchi stew was a hearty and comforting highlight, packed with the bold flavors of kimchi and tender pork. And then there was the bbq! From the succulent pork ribeye to the exquisite wagyu steaks and short ribs, every bite was an explosion of flavor. Finally, the kimchi fried rice was a perfect marriage of textures and flavors, creating a satisfying end to the meal. Overall, hosting Magpie & the Tiger's Korean BBQ private chef event at my house has been a highlight, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have had this opportunity. Roren & Caleb's talent, hospitality, and the unforgettable flavors they brought to my home made these occasions truly exceptional. I eagerly look forward to the next time they grace my kitchen with their culinary magic.
