Customer Reviews
Been here twice the food was not bad, but the portions are getting small and expensive, we had 3 main dishes for 2 and barely see meats
I went there today to get Galbi tang because they had good reviews but my gosh that was a big mistake!! As soon as I walked in it was very dark inside and no heat super cold on rainy cold day !!! We sat down and ordered Galbi tang which was so sad . I upload the comparison pictures Galbi tang from joong boo market and from here. First of all they only bit 3 small meat without the bone ! Only 3 piece of small meat and they don’t even bother too add clear noodles in the broth!! Also the broth was not hot enough and super watery nothing like hearty rich flavor! It’s not worth paying $18.99 dollar for that! I let the old lady know right away why only 2-3 piece of meat ??? Her response was Joong boo is a marker we are different we buy expensive meat and paying so much for it ???? Like what doesn’t even make sense!!! It was so uncomfortable sitting in a cold dark restaurant and food was rubbish !! Those old ladies are super shameless asking about more tips from the next table older couples and they asked are gonna tip??? From my boyfriend!!! He was so mad he left 20%tip with extra cash! Like so embarrassing and made everyone in the restaurant feeling awkward!! Even the old couples left angry!! You don’t ask more tips when you serve bad food with almost no meat !!!
Best Korean restaurant. I’ve frequented many Korean restaurants, and this one is my favorite by far. Amazing food, and impeccable service. The food is always fresh, and hot. Just how I like it. You also get plenty of little side dishes with your order. Another great thing is you never feel rushed when eating here. Great food, friendly service, and nice ambiance. I would highly recommend.
Update: I hate giving bad reviews. But that's just not serious! I ordered a soup for to go. One soup - kimchi, tofu, pork and shrimp. It actually had ONE shrimp with all its precious excrements, 2-3 tiny slices of pork, no kimchi and looots of tofu. Also, as a present, I guess, they left a few pieces of egg shells. I found them piece after piece while eating the 'delicious' soup. And the biggest surprise was that piece of plastic (or may be shrimp shell?!) in the soup. Pictures attached. There was literally only one table with 2 costumers inside when I ordered my SOUP. Ecxuse my ignorance, but how do you expect more costumers if you don't pay attention when preparing your food? You can read my review below of when you opened your restaurant, I was one of the first that reviewed your restaurant with 5 stars. I'm sorry, that's not acceptable at all. It's a brand new Korean restaurant in our area and we really liked it. Plenty of parking spaces. The atmosphere is nice, the waitress was very friendly, the food was so delicious! My family loves Korean food, we've been in a few other restaurants. We'll visit again for sure! Thank you, we wish you 🤞luck! 😊
I've been a regular customer at this Korean restaurant, but after my last experience, I’m reconsidering whether I’ll ever return. While the food is good, the portions are small for the price. The real issue, however, was when an employee pressured us to pay an additional tip after I had already tipped. When I didn’t comply with the amount they wanted, they proceeded to belittle us. So this felt like an attempt to take advantage of customers. There’s no policy stating that tipping is mandatory and/or enforced. It was an unprofessional and unsettling experience that left a very bad impression.
