Customer Reviews
We are from Korea, so we tend to be quite picky about jjajangmyeon. However, everyone in our group was very satisfied with the food. The gan-jjajang and tangsuyuk were both delicious, but we were especially surprised by how good the jjamppong rice was! It was even better than what we usually have in Korea. The portions are very generous, and everything was clean and well prepared. We will definitely be coming back♥️
Absolutely delicious! The jjajangmyun and jjambong here tastes similar to what I grew up with in Korea. The restaurant is very clean and comfortable, and the servers are super friendly. Highly recommend if you’re craving authentic Korean-Chinese comfort food on island!
We had the seafood jjamppong (spicy noodle soup), jjajangmyun (black beans) and memosa (shrimp toast). The staff were very attentive and nice and the jjajangmyun and the memosa was pretty good. Overall the food is on a sweeter side. The jjamppong was not so good. I appreciated that they give you good proportion but it was one of the worst jjamppong I had this year. The broth didnt have much flavor and lacked the depth it usually has. My mom came here couple times and agreed that the jjamppong was disappointing today.
Service: Came in for lunch on a Friday around noon. Manager/owner was handling the wait list and sat 5 parties ahead of us, some waited 5 minutes while we waited 20 minutes. Finally was seated and Jun took our order, dropped the side dishes and then we again waited for 20 minutes while 2 guys next to us got their food in 5 minutes. Jun had completely lost our order of 2 lunch sets. Finally retook our order just as they were running out of noodles for the day. Had to ask another server for tea after we asked Jun and were forgotten again. The party that was sat at the same time at us has already eaten and left. Took over an hour from coming in to get our food. Food: portions are massive, prices are high too. Probably a decent value for food to price but it's just so much. Some entrees top +
Tangsuyuk was excellent, but the chili beef felt very over priced. It was tasty, however there was hardly any beef, because they were so tiny like the size of ground beef pieces. I’m not sure if they were the right size or they ran out of beef and used whatever they had left (they sold out of noodles that night), but $36 was too much for stir-fried vegetables with beef crumbs. But if you want to try tangsuyuk, it’s good; the place and the servers are nice.
