The food was delicious, especially the soup. I ordered the kimchi tofu soup. It was sizzling hot and came with a raw egg to crack into the soup.The restaurant is not pretty, but it is clean.I think my family and I were served by the tall lady that is mentioned in the reviews, however I think the service was good! She seated us an hour before closing, food was served fast, and it was delicious. What more can I ask for?

Food is good, the beef bowl is very tasty. Service is standard Korean style which is semi rude but does the job. The place is very old so needs more deep cleaning. Tofu soup is very tasty, but can be a little salty for some. The beef bowl is must try.Wheelchair accessibility: Can
Have come here before with a friend and my partner. We all liked the food so we decided to come back. I come back this time with just my partner. We walk in and signal to the host that we want a table for 2. The tall lady with glasses waves at a direction towards the left that we follow. She does not get up and take us to our table so we sat in an area where other people were sat as well. This is a pit stop meal for us before we run our errands and we were looking for something light that will give us energy, hence, tofu soup. The tall lady with glasses comes by and asks us our order, and we note that want to share a bowl since this is just a late lunch for us and were not anticipating on wanting a heavy meal. She looks at us sternly and tells us we need to move tables. She did not ask us if we wanted to move, she just said that “there is more ppl to come”. Mind you, there is a couple sitting in the booth next to us who came after and they were not instructed to move. It was only after we mentioned that we wanted to share a bowl that she had us get up, carry our waters and utensils, and moved us to a desolate corner of the restaurant. Side note, restaurant is in bad shape. Yellowed and frayed walls, needs reno badly, but I would’ve accepted the environment as a part of small business charm. What I found especially alarming is the disrespect me and my partner experienced when she forced us to move tables even though she did not tell us where to sit in the first place! My partner and I are queer too, so it makes me feel doubly disrespected since she seemed to treat all the other people around us kindly. If you want piss poor service,minimal sides, no water refills, and a dilapidated ambiance this is definitely the place to be! The sad part is, I enjoyed their soup, but the service soured the meal for me. I know I’m not the only one to feel the same, just take a look at the other reviews. None of them are about the food, they’re all about poor service and discrimination.

Ordered seafood tofu soup to go. Still was hot when I made it home but wasn't as spicy as I thought it would be but that's okay. Thought they had closed but so happy they are open! I used to drive all the way to hacienda heights from Fontana as there aren't many tofu soup joints anywhere. Can't speak on service but they were very nice when I came in and my order was ready in 15 minutes. Place looks a little old and when I visited it too many people eating in but it was quiet. Definitely gonna come back

Food is nice and tasty but the service here is terrible!! The waitresses are very rude with no class. I gave her a piece of my mind and she didn't like it!! Trust negative reviews cause they are all true!! The only tip the waitress got was me telling her shes a Bitch!

Great food and not much competition in the area. The is relatively priced well, the service is good, and the meals are delicious. The facility, I'm assuming, is a leased facility. It could use some improvements, especially the acoustic ceiling tiles. Other than that, you won't be disappointed with any of their tofu soups or barbecue plates. Their bimbip pops are great as well!

Great spot. Seems family owned - simple menu but everything is quality.
I like here，food is fresh and like Asian style ，Some people think that the service attitude is not warm enough, may not understand the Asian culture, we are more subtle.Kid-friendliness: My daughter like here

Fast service and good soft tofu as you can get besides down in Garden Grove. It's been a while since it had it and luckily there was this place next to the 99 Ranch Market where and can get my groceries and tofu fix

Rancho Cucamonga doesn't have many Korean restaurants but if you want a quick fix and you keep your experience low, then it isn't too bad of a place. My wife had the samgyetang (chicken soup) and it was okay but the chicken was a bit dry. I had the beef short rib soup (galbitang) and if it was less salty then it would have been great. The side dishes were disappointing especially the kimchi that even my Korean Chinese wife couldn't eat. The server was friendly but didn't come back to our table after serving the dishes until she brought the bill. An honest review would be 2.5 but I think 2 is a bit harsh.

We've been here twice. Both times were on our way back home to vegas. The ladies are so kind & the service is great. The food is delicious as well. Kalbi is a must.
