My new favorite Korean restaurant with authentic Korean cuisine. Tofu soup was just perfect! Galbee Korean BBQ and kimchi jjigae is good too. Service was excellent and felt very welcomed. Will return.

One of the best hidden gems in the neighborhood. You will definitely missed it if you don’t look for it. This Gangnam Tofu House is located in a small mall at the end of the Thornton Avenue. Owner and staff are super friendly and food is always good. If you can’t take too spicy, ask them to tone it down to your level and enjoy. I have been here many times and will go again.

Originally from LA and whenever I’m in the mood for Korean food Gangnam Tofu is the spot! Tried other Korean restaurants in the Fremont/Newark area and none of them compare to the flavor and quality Gangnam Tofu provides. Delicious tofu soup, meats, and banchan!

This unassuming Korean tofu house is always a comfort to visit - the familiar waft of Korean tofu soup (they offer 8+ combinations) and tasty banchan keep me coming back even as more Korean restaurants open up. I usually order some form of tofu soup, especially on cold rainy days, but I've also had their kimchi pancake, fried mackerel, and kalbi short ribs and they've all been good. I also appreciate the unlimited refills of the banchan- the wait staff even came by a couple times to ask if I wanted any more of a particular banchan dish (a rarity in my experience). Their ice water also tastes exceptionally good for some reason. Small space, but usually not too long of a wait and the restaurant is always clean and orderly. I feel it funny (in a good way) that they play Korean mukbangers on the TV while you dine - it makes me enjoy the food more!

Their pancakes (kim-chi, seafood, etc) are the standout dish. I don't know how they get them so light and crunchy. Ban-chan are delicious with good variety and promptly refilled. The rest of the food is good Korean food similar to what you can find at many restaurants in Fremont but it is worth it just for the pancakes.

Wanted Korean food for lunch and went to our favorite Tofu house. We had their combination of Seafood Tofu soup with chicken bulgogi. We also had their seafood pancake The seafood tofu soup is delicious. The chicken bulgogi is soft and tender. You have to try their pancakes. Either you have a choice of beef, seafood, and vegetables. This combination can feed 2 people. The portions are generous and a complete meal. We always come here if we want Tofu soup.

A very nice little restaurant with authentic Korean cuisine. Not a huge selection on the menu but what they offer is delicious. We will be back.

HELLA BOMB!!! Kimchi pancake, so yummy! Bimbim bap is so good here! I loved that it's in the stone bowl. The rice gets crispy! Everything stays hot as you eat.

This was my second time here and I had to get the exact same thing. The gal bi and tofu soup are just so so good and I love the side dishes that are provided. The staff is so friendly as well, the long drive to here will always be worth it.

This my absolute favorite place to get Korean Fried Chicken (KFC). You have the choice of wings or whole/half with different types of sauce. The stews, BBQ, and others are great as well. You can't go wrong here!

Whenever I travel to my bestie’s place at Fremont we always stop by at this restaurant for their Tofu soup and generous portions of side dishes. Loved the spicy kimchi today and the host served extra kimchi ? Love how great the folks were at this place. Stopping by again next time!!
