Came here craving some comforting Korean food but unfortunately left a bit disappointed. The galbi came out burnt, which really took away from the flavor and tenderness. The soup looked hearty but ended up being less flavorful than expected—more heat than depth. With the meal being on the pricier side, it didn’t quite feel worth the value. The banchan selection was decent, but overall I wouldn’t rush back.

Absolutely amazing food. I had their BBQ Marinated Ribeye and it was amazing. The sweet, beefy smell had me salivating. The slices were big, thin, juicy, and tender flaps. I could feel the fibers of the meat giving away easily with each bite. It was sweet, smoky, and really beefy. You need to close your eyes and savor it to really take in the flavors. It left a slight smoky, woody aftertaste, making you remember wood charcoal was used to grill it and leaving you hungry for more. This was the best beef I've had this year. The banchan were also exquisite. All the vegetables were succulent and crisp, so I know they use fresh ingredients. I wonder if they make the fishcake themselves because it had a stronger and better taste than the other Korean restaurants I've been to. Maybe the fishcake

Went here at 6 pm and got seated right away. The place has a cozy vibe inside. Tried the honeycomb tripe and intestines for the first time—super impressive, definitely recommend. The mixed cold buckwheat noodle had a bit of a spicy kick but was still good. Prices are a bit higher than other spots, but the staff was really friendly.

Great place for some authentic Korean food. Pajeon : Seafood pancake. Crispy on the edge and soft in the middle. Really good. But the sauce that came with the dish was way too salty for me. Galbi : BBQ beef short ribs. very flavorful and moist but on the chewy side. Not sure because they forgot to cut against the grain or something. Galbi Tang : beef soup. I usually leave the meat untouched because they are just too tough in most Korean places. This place cook it to point where the beef was soft and tender. So so good. Rice cake soup: also very good but I prefer Galbi Tang Kimchi Pork Belly : really yummy. A little bit spicy and very addicted. Chapjae : stir fried yam noodles. Very good Pan fried Mackerel: on the dry side and too salty I highly recommended the Galbi, pancake, beef

Grilled Korean Barbecued Steak, fresh salads with cucumber and Kim Chee, my family drove from Sonoma County to San Francisco to enjoy delicious Korean dishes, and Wooden Charcoal Korean restaurant was worth the time and drive. The food was brilliant. The restaurant team was great. Excellent management. The grilled barbecue tasted delicious. We ate everything. My daughter loves Korean dishes now.
