Amazing food here! ? while going to the American Dream mall and wanted to eat Korean food. We found this gem! The MUST TRY dish is the SEAFOOD PANCAKE! It's so delicious, crispy, and tasty! This is the best haemul pajeon (seafood pancake) I have never had in NJ. I could never make so crispy pancake at home! Their spicy squid on rice in a hot stone pot was so yummy! I hope this restaurant is closer to where I live!Parking: It's located on a bust street. I think there is no parking on site. We parked on a paid meter.

My favorite go to for Korean food. I always use a birthday/anniversary as the perfect excuse to go. Depression too. The moment I feel anxious and need something to cheer me up, I call ahead and pick up my spicy pork bowl with rice. So good.

This is the best Korean restaurant I've ever found in the United States.For me, who had enough experience at various Korean restaurants but never fully satisfied, this place gave me tremendous satisfaction unlike other places.The quality of the food as if it were eaten in Korea was very good, especially Hot spicy meat stew, which was better than the Hot spicy meat stew that was eaten in Korea.*I'm going to visit here again to eat Hot spicy meat stew.Everything from the side dishes to the main dish was great.I also liked the fact that my 4-year-old daughter was provided with a suitable chair and even a fork for her to use.Also, my daughter was satisfied with just the side dishes.The staff was very friendly and the restaurant was also in a very comfortable atmosphere to enjoy the meal.When you visit here, you can use free parking on the street.Kid-friendliness: Children's chairs and forks. Side dishes are not spicy.

It's been a while since I've had a good meal since I don't have an appetite.

i do not know if this was just because i was extremely famished before arriving at this establishment, but when that first spoonful of soondobu made contact with my taste buds i swear to god it was the best thing i've ever tasted. it was so scrumptious.

A hidden gem. I had the cabbage soup and it was exactly what I needed. Cozy little casual spot for good food and no frills!

Very delicious Korean food but be aware that they cook all the food for you in the back- the coal stoves on the table and closed up and unavailable.
After a long day at American Dream Mall with our toddler, we wanted to enjoy a delicious dinner before we went back home. My husband was craving sundubu and it's his birthday today, so the birthday boy gets what the birthday boy wants! We ordered the sundubu with beef, small seafood pancake, and cold bibimbap. It was accompanied by complementary banchans - spicy seaweed, kimchi, pickled radish, and seasoned soybean sprouts. Everything was yummy and reasonably priced, and we went home with a full belly. Highly recommend!

Authentic taste hit the spot. Side dishes were great. Hot barley tea was available. Beef stew was amazing. Mackerel was smaller than expected but the flavor was right on. Chill atmosphere. Low paying music. All in all, a great spot if you want some tasty Korean food.

Stopped by today once I placed my order waitress was nice to bring me few of the pickled vegetables, and they were all good . And when I asked for more kimchi she gave me some without charging . Ordered beef wonton soup , that Was delicious. Had another dish that I can not pronounce the name of but it was shreds beef and onion and I added tofu . My only complaint is is it needed abit of salt . Taste wise it was good but bit of salt would have made it even better
