We found this place through a friend who is from Korea who knows her Korean food! She said they recently changed management and are a lot tastier now. I think I need to get all my Korean food recommendations from her because this place is legit! The galbi tang, tangsuyak (fried pork with sweet sour sauce), and jjim dak (braised chicken -- similar in style to galbi jjim) were all delicious and portions are large. The tangsuyak here is better than Koong's. The half size portion of the jjim dak came in a large platter and we brought home plenty of leftovers. We also ordered a tofu soup for my daughter, who gave it thumbs up, and a jjajangmyeon (black bean sauce noodle), but I didn't get a chance to try it. They also had fried chicken which looked good! Surprisingly the place wasn't crowded; I think it's still a bit under the radar. Service was SO nice and helpful even though our large group had several rowdy and crying kids. They did add an automatic service charge which I understand many places do for large parties. We'd come here again for sure!

The food was delicious and fresh! Even though we had gotten it to go. I had gotten the combo tofu soup. It was very flavorful. My friend had gotten the tteok bokki ! It was delicious! Totally would try this place again. I would love to enjoy the food at the restaurant. So, I shall give another update when I have the chance.

I have been going to this place for a while and it was closed and reopen. really enjoy the restaurant under new management. Despite the price increase I really like their food and service. Side dishes are delicious and also have their unique dishes not just the regular off shelf from other restaurants. Highly recommended to

First time trying Korean garden bistro, using yelp to found any high reviews and this comes up. Got to sit immediately on Tuesday night, ordered the whole order fried chicken with 2 flavors, they charged +1 for each flavor. Tofu soup with beef comes with rice, spicy seafood soup and katsu don with very large portion of fried pork chop, side coleslaw, soup and japchae! They have 9 options side dishes available, and they are so tasty! Can't wait to come back again!

Felt like good home cooking. If you're looking for a fancy and crazy price experience to impress on a date go to that place inside Westfield valley fair mall. If you're looking for a good casual place to eat with your family come here (I've been here twice and it was delicious both times). I liked their kalbitang and beef tofu soup. Both were flavorful. Fried chicken was good too (crunchy outside with flavorful sauce and moist chicken inside). I tried both their sweet mild sauce and soy garlic but I didn't try their spicy sauce (next time I will try their spicy sauce for sure).

Tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork) is Delicious. The batter is crispy and the sauce is pineapple juice based I was really looking forward to the jjajangmyeon based on the reviews and was sorely disappointed. It's not terrible, but the sauce is very sweet and is comparable to paiks banjeum in Sunnyvale. The best in the South Bay is probably koong's nearby, but the tangsuyuk here is way better
Broth of tofu pot tastes great. Fried chicken is crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside. Love the side dishes!

Stopped here for lunch and got the seafood pancake, beef tofu soup, and a half order of soy garlic fried chicken! Everything tasted amazing and would definitely come back to try more fried chicken flavors. The service was friendly and quick and there are also plenty of tables. They come with a lot of sides, and white rice and egg for the soup.

Good Korean food with Chinese influences. The menu is narrow though they do well with the dishes they offer. Having been to competitor Paik's Noodle a few days before, my opinion is fortunately/unfortunately anchored. Korea Garden Bistro wasn't crowded on a Sunday afternoon (after normal lunch time), whereas Paik's can have long lines to get seated. One reason could be because of price. Korea Bistro was higher and high enough that it influenced what I ordered.

second time going with my mom & i really like it. i tried the jjajangmyeon & i thought it was good. i really like the fried chicken though, its super crispy and light. on top of that, the server is really nice. its the same guy both times we went & hes really nice. me and my mom moved because it was too cold & he even offered to close the door for us. i would recommend if you happen to be near. also a very clean area.

This was introduced to me by a friend. And we were craving something warm on this cold day. When we first entered it was no one. But once we started eating everyone started coming in. The menu is quiet simple and straight forward. I ordered the spicy tofu soup with beef for 18.99. My friend got a spicy noodle dish. Both were very good and delicious. The spicy tofu was not spicy enough but the good thing was it was not salty like other places i have tried. They offer 1 egg, 1 bowl of rice, and they also have y different bonchon. They offer bean sprouts, kimchi, pickled cucumber, potato, pickled raddish, and something else I don't remember. The staff are super nice and sweet. We got two servings of bonchon. The restaurant was super clean and nice. They have an abundant of seats. They also have a booth and table and chairs.
