“This is my go to place for jjajangmyeon. The noodle is always fresh and the sauce is perfect. Big portions as well. I have yet to try other dishes. It is always busy and has long waits on the weekend so come early. No reservations. It's first come, first serve. Good for families and friends. Kid friendly place too. The only gripe is that parking lot is small not a lot of parking space once it is full.“

“Tobang is a nice and tasty Korean BBQ place with a relaxed vibe. They offer set menus from $50 (with one meat choice) to $110 (with four meat choices). You get unlimited sides, and the kimchi is really crunchy and flavorful. The meat portions are big, and the service is friendly and welcoming. It’s good value for the money!“

“Been to rice junkie multiple times for lunch as well as for dinner. The service is always quick and fast however I do not like the new digital menu that they have especially if you’re on the tables close to the wall.
Their selection of sauces is always very interesting and I’m yet to try them all.
The ambience is somewhere in between a fancy restaurant and a fast casual.
Definitely get their corn and cheese combination either with the chicken or with the pork. Lunch for two with a drink and appetizer was $30 per person.
Parking: Massive parking lot with plenty of spots“

“I absolutely loved the time I spent at this place. We did have a little bit of trouble with the tablet at first, but the staff came in and helped. I guess there’s a trick to it. After that it was smooth sailing! We just played all the songs on YouTube karaoke! It was SO MUCH FUN! We ordered food and drinks and everything came super fast! We’re definitely coming back! In my opinion, it was so worth every cent and everyone had a great time!“

“We had their spicy topokki, clam soup, seafood pancake, grilled squid and fried whole chicken. Every dish was done well, impressed with their seafood pancake, crispy outside and moist inside. Perfectly seasoned. They don't provide banchan at the table. Slight disappointment.“

“Much delish! The seafood tofu soup was heart warming and paired so well with the mixed brown rice. The seafood pancake was perfectly crispy and the sauce with it was sweet and tangy, absolutely mouthwatering. The banchan was so generous and the service was so friendly! Would hope to come again!“

“If you're looking for an old-school but traditional karaoke-room type of place, definitely check this place out! The lady/bar tender was super lovely and showed us to our room right away. She made things so simple for us to do and even offered us an extra 20min after we were all finished singing our hearts out!“

I came in with my guests, and they were happy with high quality of dishes with outstanding service. We will let our circles know that they should definitely come out to Ondam and to check out.“

“Did not get the chance to photograph my delicious meal but tried their jjolmyun, oh my lord, it was so-so good!!! The texture, flavor, the coldness of the noodle all in one bowl was absolutely delicious!!! You must try that dish when visiting here. I devoured that bowl of food. You are able to adjust the spicy level. I personally loved it without much spicy too it so it doesn’t over kill the flavor already in the bowl of ingredients. Perfect meal for warmer weathers but I enjoy cold stuff in cold weathers. Their kimchi fried rice was delicious too! Very cheesy and has an egg with it.Will need to comeback here again to try their other goods!!!“

“I became a fan of Woomihome after the second visit! Friends recommended Woomihome and I finally got to try it. I saw that they have meal kits, pre-made hearty soups, and side dishes. So far we have had spicy and sweet chewy noodles, steamed shishi peppers, yeolmu kimchi and braised beef in soy sauce. Everything we tried was tasty and did not disappoint. Woomihome has excellent customer service and it looks like it has a great system in place. The side dishes might be a tad bit pricier compared to Korean markets, but I can see that their quality and freshness speak volumes!“

“One of my favorite Korean BBQ restaurants! Authentic Korean dishes. Great quality meats and sides. We ordered the Bar B Que pork belly and beef. The staff cooked it right at our table and it tasted so good. The Seafood Tofu soup and Seafood Pancake were delicious as well. All the Ban Chan sides were perfect. Soju and hot tea to drink.“

“This is no doubt the best Korean rice roll you can find in South Bay. Other dishes are good but not as memorable. I would skip Japchae as it is on the saltier side. Took off one star because their service is terrible. The waitress seems unhappy all the time. They don’t welcome small kids unless they can sit and eat like adults. You cannot wait inside for take out if you have small kids with you.“

“They serve excellent kimchi cabbage here. It tastes like it was made with squid or fish sauce and is rich in umami flavors. Delicious and addictive! The kimchi radish while flavorful was a bit too soft for my liking. There were only these two banchan available, so more variety would be nice. I also ordered the seolleongtang, which had thin slices of beef with a delicate texture. After moving from LA I was worried about how good Korean food would be in the Bay Area. Places like Kunjip puts my mind at ease and I know I can get all the classic dishes done right. Looking forward to trying the galbi jim next!“

“The food wasn't bad and was delicious. The staff were friendly and took good care of each and every detail. However, the restaurant is a bit expensive, so considering the price, it is not good value for money. I think the taste is a bit disappointing considering the price. Still, it was a nice atmosphere to take my boss with me and there was a room, so it was okay.“

“Restaurant Gish offers a unique dining experience with a focus on Korean fusion cuisine. The menu is prix fixe and seasonally driven, blending modern Korean flavors with contemporary American touches. We appreciate the meticulous attention to detail, both in the food presentation and the attentive, non-intrusive service. The ambiance is cozy and relaxed, with light background music, making it a great choice for a romantic evening.
All the dishes were so delicious and I would love to come back every month when they change the seasonal menu! Such a treat and we loved chatting with Stan, Ray, Areum, and Ben!
It's definitely worth a visit! We will be back very soon.“

Chinese look down
This place opens till late and the staff were very friendly. We (Taiwanese) were the only table who were not Koreans. Food was okay, the pineapple soju was really nice!
Food portions are big but taste is average
I highly recommend ordering pineapple soju or watermelon soju. Share it with everyone.
There will also be some fairy sticks on top, which looks very cute when photographed.
- There is a fried pork belly dish which is very delicious.
M6: Pork Belly Garlic- Jalapeño Stir-Fry
It cost $140 for the two of us to eat
We were the only table at the table with non-Korean people.
The other six tables, large and small, are all Koreans.
The clerk was very friendly and even treated us to raw shrimp in soy sauce!“

“The place was very busy, but our server was upbeat, helpful and altogether wonderful. The meats were great (huge prime rib was a good value) and the side condiments and soups were great. I highly recommend.
Dietary restrictions: If gluten free, get the un-sauced meats in BBQ and avoid soups. But there will be plenty other food/meat to enjoy.“
“How to eat jjamja noodles (half Jjamppong, half Jajangmyeon) in San Jose-- order veggie Jajangmyeon and a small bowl of Jjamppong soup on the side. Since the noodles are served separately, you can dip them in the jjamppong soup. The side soup is smaller portion but contains squid, shrimp, and vegetables.Bon Appetit!“

“Still the best samgyetang in Bay Area. I've been coming to this place when I am craving for ginseng chicken soup (samgyetang). Portion enough for 2 meals for me. This place was packed during lunch time. The basic sam gyetang cost $27 plus tax plus tips. So be aware before dining here. Only has one server an elderly man who serve the whole restaurant, probably to keep it open as rent is expensive. But service is fast, no need to wait too long. In and out in 30-40 minutes if you are dining in. Don't compare to samgyetang in Seoul in price or quality as the airfare ticket cost way more than $35 ?“

“What an amazing find of a Korean restaurant! I've been craving marinated shrimp and crab since coming back from a Korea trip and was happy to hear this restaurant had it on their menu.
We ordered their beef tartar, braised mackerel, and the marinated crab rice bowl combo (with marinated shrimp), as well as a bottle of Sang makgeolli. The portions were larger than expected, and all the food was delicious! The makgeolli was great as well.
The ambiance inside is very bright and modern. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. Service was fast. Overall, great experience and would definitely come back to try other items on their menu.“

“Small, minimalist Korean BBQ restaurant, located in a poorly designed plaza in Santa Clara. Meat quality is decent, but you have to cook on a small propane-powered surface that allows a lot of meat grease to be splattered on your small table, so don’t wear nice clothes to eat there. The parking lot is very small, and I would recommend street parking instead, as many food delivery drivers make it a nightmarish parking lot experience.“

“Best pork belly korean bbq in town, Thick and juicy, especially the way they bbq for you at the table guarantees the pork will be cooked to its best taste. The spicy seafood soup goes very well with the bbq. The bbq that makes you think of once a while in few weeks“

“Great original Korea food! All my Korean colleagues recommend this one, and definitely a go to place if you wanna something not American fusion but authentic Korea. And please not expect the warm American style service, the waiter may do all tricks to get you out once you finish eating:( so not a good place for a after meal chat, need to find a coffee or boba shop around.“

“Great service, the man at the front was very personable and hospitable. Gave us great service and a great portion size for the price. I had the Korean spicy pork which gave me nostalgia of having it back home. Really tasty and rich. My coworker had the hot punch sandwich which he enjoyed he definitely wants to try a more special sandwich next time. Overall great time, good food, and good portions.“

“Really tasty and interesting take on katsu. The signature katsu is like a pork "shell" stuffed with a cheese sauce. They also have regular tonkatsu if you're not into that.
My only problem is that it's takeout only, so by the time I got home, the cheese was already getting cold. I'd be more likely to come back if there was a table to eat at.“

“Good food, plenty of parking, restaurant is very clean and reasonable price. The only down side is the smaller noodle portion size but won’t deter me from returning. They have combo for 2-4, 4-8 and over 10 people dishes. I will return for those.“

“If you’re in the mood for a fun and delicious dessert, this spot serving Korean-style soft serve in fish-shaped waffle cones is a must-try. The cones are crispy, slightly sweet, and the soft serve is creamy and rich—flavors like vanilla, matcha, and red bean are all winners.“

“I took out and ate Jjajang, Sweet and Sour Pork, and Kkanpunggi. At first, I wondered why the Sweet and Sour Pork sauce was so thin. But it was really delicious. It tastes like the sauce I used to eat at an old-time Jjajangmyeon restaurant in the countryside.“

“Place your order at the counter, pick up meal when number is called and return tray to dirty dish station when done.Good portions to fill your belly. Prices are fair. There is no "full service" unless you ask for assistance. Dress warm as this food court is located in the grocery store. Temp is always on the chilly side.“

“I love bingsoo. You can never go wrong with fruit ones!
Parking can be difficult but if you don't park too close, it's not bad. The wait is long to order (there is two ordering kiosk or a cashier for takeout) and to get your order; but there's a decent amount of tables so you'll most likely get one to sit at to wait unless it's super crowded.“

“Perfect soup for a cold winter day. Rich beef flavor and lots of meat. Do be aware that the soup is unsalted and thus they give you salt on the side.
I ordered takeout and it came with all the necessary sides (scallion, salt, radish kimchi, cabbage kimchi, some kind of spicy scallion sauce?, rice, noodles). However, I will say that the kimchi leaned more on the sweet side instead of savory like hanbat in LA (whose kimchi is divine), which is not my personal favorite. But thats a matter of personal preference so no points docked for that.
There is also a bit of a language barrier between us and the staff but otherwise very friendly and quick service, would reccommend.“

“We have been to many Korean BBQ places but this was our first visit to Baekjeong. We enjoyed the visual space, from the high ceilings and natural light to the branded lights inside. The hoods add a fun industrial vibe.
We also enjoyed having the food cooked for us. However one of the tradeoffs of the “team service” concept is that not all of the servers had equal attention/skill. We once were told “it’s ready to eat any time” and upon lifting a piece of meat found a completely raw piece below it.
The food was generally quite good if not great, except for the marinaded pork which was delicious. The beef cuts had excessive gristle, and the lack of seasoning made the pork boring — but the marinaded pork was a highlight. We found ourselves wishing for a traditional sauce station to brighten up the flavors.
The seafood pancake got mixed reviews — tasty and crispy but very oily. The kimchi and other unlimited sides were tasty, albeit a little plain. (See photo with menu.)
In addition to the seafood pancake we ordered the “large” special combo for 3 adults. We could have managed with the small portion.
Our main complaint is that it was so noisy that we could not have a 3 person conversation. The hard surfaces are not very forgiving. Because of this we do not plan on a repeat visit.“
