홍반장 타판 (HONG BAN JANG Tappan)

For around here… pretty decent. Unless you want to take a 20 min ride down to Fort Lee/Palisades. Went here with my kids during soft opening. The staff def have to get into their flow. But every new restaurant does. So it’s forgivable. The staff was friendly and were fast to please though I wasn’t sure they had enough people for the rush that they probably weren’t expecting. I went two nights in a row and it went from a few tables to a packed night. Night and day. Coming from experience they’ll def need to get their flow. But like I said, that’s why you have soft openings,… to iron out the wrinkles. The food was solid. My kids were happy and around here I’d consider it pretty good. We tried a few different dishes and everything was tasty. Ambiance is nice. Real clean and bright. The pla

The negative reviews about long waits and slow food are missing the obvious: you went during opening week at prime dinner hours on a Friday/Saturday. Of course it was going to be slammed and of course the wait was going to be long. I went on a Wednesday around 8pm and had no issue with anything. I was seated immediately and got my food fast as well. They were actually very accommodating, I had asked to switch to the cushion seat tables as I have a bad lower back and they said no problem and moved me. I ordered the donkatsu as they didn’t have this at the Fort Lee or Palisades Park locations. Honestly it’s now my go-to order from here, it seriously blew my expectations from a jjajangmyun place. The donkatsu was tender inside and crispy outside, the sauce that paired was almost like a perfe

Ample parking, clean bathroom, and friendly staff — that’s the main reason I’m giving 3 stars. However, the place is very understaffed. I understand it’s busy since it’s a new opening, but the service is extremely slow and the food took way too long to come out. As for the food, it’s honestly one of the worst Korean-Chinese restaurants I’ve tried. The Jjampong had no real flavor other than just being spicy. The Tangsuyuk was undercooked and the portion was quite small. The seafood soup(?) was almost a joke. They really need to revisit and change their recipes if they want people to come back.

Authentic Korean food within the area. Food was good. Service was excellent. Place just started recently. Give the place a try

Honestly seeing the bad reviews made us almost not want to go, but we went anyways and it was really good. We got the tang su yuk, 유니짜장 Yunijjajangmyeon, 짬뽕 Jjamppong, 탕수육 Tangsuyuk, and 깐풍새우 Kkanpungsaeu. The Jjamppong has a really strong kick to it, so if your spice tolerence is low I would recommend asking them to add less spice or just thug it out. The portion sizes for all of them were really big, there were a lot of leftovers to take home.We were also really hungry going in, so I'd say this is more than enough for 3-4 people.
