Ingle Korean Steakhouse D.C. reservations are currently available on Resy. The official D.C. location page links directly to that venue, even though Ingle's general FAQ still mentions OpenTable.

That conflict is easy to resolve: use the reservation button on the official Ingle D.C. page, which opens the current Resy listing. If your preferred time is gone, join Resy's Notify list or ask a restaurant reservation concierge to monitor supported inventory. Neither option guarantees that a table will open.

Ingle reservations at a glance

  • Current platform: Resy
  • Published release schedule: Not disclosed
  • Observed calendar: On October 14, Resy displayed inventory through November 12. Treat that as a dated observation, not a guaranteed rolling window.
  • Late cancellation fee: $35 per guest when canceled within 24 hours
  • Grace period: 15 minutes
  • Arrival rule: The entire party must be present before seating
  • Walk-ins: Welcomed by the restaurant, with reservations recommended

Ingle does not publish a release hour, a fixed reservation cadence, a deposit amount, or a separate no-show fee on the pages we could verify. Do not build your booking plan around an unofficial midnight or morning drop.

How to book Ingle Korean Steakhouse D.C.

Start with Ingle's official location page rather than an old search result. Its reservation button routes to the D.C. Resy venue, which is important because the restaurant also has a Tysons location.

Search several times instead of checking only one prime slot. A two-person table around 7 PM is naturally more competitive than an early dinner, a later seating, or a weekday. Weekend lunch also gives you another service period without changing restaurants.

If nothing works, activate Notify for every time you could honestly accept. Ingle's current Resy policy says the team actively monitors that list and may create the reservation for you if a table appears on the reservation date. If the restaurant makes that same-day booking, Resy says you can cancel without a fee before 4 PM that day.

The cancellation policy and 15-minute rule

Ingle's live Resy page states a $35 per person cancellation fee for cancellations made less than 24 hours before the reservation. Cancel at least 24 hours ahead to avoid that fee.

The restaurant also publishes a 15-minute grace period and requires the complete party before seating. After 15 minutes, Ingle may shorten the dining time or move the reservation to the next available slot. That makes a late arrival more than a minor inconvenience when the room is busy.

The policy does not currently disclose a separate deposit or no-show amount. Resy may still request a payment card to secure a booking, but a card field alone should not be described as a charged deposit.

What dinner costs now

Ingle's current official prix-fixe menu lists three formats:

  • Lunch prix fixe: $62 per person
  • Weekday prix fixe: $65 per person, Monday through Thursday excluding holidays
  • Dinner prix fixe: $84 per person

The dinner format includes American Wagyu cuts, a shared appetizer and side, a savory course, and dessert, coffee, or tea. Current choices include steak tartare, cod roe garlic toast, scallion pancake, doenjang jjigae, jjamppong, chilled buckwheat noodles, and beef fried rice. Menu items can change with availability and seasonality.

The official à la carte menu lists six-to-seven-ounce American Wagyu cuts from $38 to $72. Examples include hanger steak and tri-tip at $44, marinated galbi and outside skirt at $56, boneless short rib at $58, and Japanese A5 ribeye cap at $72.

Ingle's FAQ asks everyone at the table to participate in the prix-fixe menu, with exceptions for children under 12 and elderly guests. It also confirms that à la carte ordering is available. Contact the restaurant before booking if your group needs a different format or has dietary restrictions, since the restaurant warns that not every dish can be modified and cross-contamination is possible.

Why Ingle stands out

Ingle is a polished Korean steakhouse rather than an all-you-can-eat barbecue room. Staff handle the tabletop grilling, matching different cuts with the doneness that suits their fat and texture.

Owner James Jang opened the original Ingle near Tysons in 2022. Washingtonian's opening report explains that he previously ran Donburi and brought Ingle into the former Nama Ko space on 14th Street. The D.C. restaurant keeps the American Wagyu focus while giving the bar and Korean spirits a larger role.

Resy's profile of Ingle highlights the short rib, marinated zabuton, doenjang jjigae, and cold mul makguksu. It also confirms that the servers manage the grills and that walk-ins are accepted.

More recent coverage shows that demand did not end with opening season. Washingtonian included Ingle in its August 2026 Restaurant Week picks and confirmed the regular $84 dinner price. The restaurant then ran a short Chuseok menu in September. Those promotions have ended, but they are useful evidence that Ingle remains part of the current D.C. dining conversation.

What to do when Resy is sold out

Use this order of operations:

  1. Search weekdays, early dinner, late dinner, and weekend lunch.
  2. Turn on Resy Notify for every acceptable time.
  3. Recheck near the 24-hour cancellation deadline, when plans can change.
  4. Consider a walk-in near the start of service, but treat it as a fallback rather than a promise.
  5. Monitor supported openings instead of repeatedly refreshing one slot.
