Best seafood jjampong and king dumplings! My husband loves seafood jjampong and I love king dumplings. We live far,but come here for their good food. If you enjoy delicious food I highly recommend this place. Very clean and the staff are very friendly.

this place is closed... but somehow was still able to take an order for delivery and my credit payment! I placed an order thru yelp at 4:25pm 11/16/21. Ordered 4 or 5 items, for delivery no less... 2 hrs later I called the number "KIMBAP PARADISE"... ??? I told them that I had placed an order online to the tune of about $50. She says that's not us. We only use doordash. I got into the car and drove to the address online, which had the same phone number and address as the place I ordered food from... but the name was different. They had a very similar menu even... but would not do anything for me. What kind of a scam is this?!

This place is it!!! We had the black bean noodles, kimchi fried rice and chicken fried rice. All of it was absolutely amazing. Not to mention the service is NEXT LEVEL!! The lady at the restaurant is the sweetest. She took care of us so well and even gave us 2 sodas on the house for our kids. We will definitely be coming back again! Such an amazing dinner and experience

SOOOOO yummy! This hole in the wall Korean restaurant is absolutely delicious and very generous with their portions! The prices are inexpensive. We got the black bean noodles and kimbap, and got some banchan for free! One of my favorite kimchi's I've ever had! The noodles were very chewy while the black bean sauce was very umami and had lots of veggies in it. There's also a LOT to choose from on the menu. I highly recommend!

Whenever I'm too exhausted to cook, Chois is my go-to. It's yummy comfort food! I'm not Korean but I seriously crave the spicy cold chewy noodle (jjolmyeon). Spicy but not overly - a bit of crunchy fruit/vegetables, and the chewy goodness of the noodles. YUM My second favorite is the chicken bulgogi. Such deep flavor....so good! Goes great with a bowl of rice. The nice lady/owner always serves a few tasty side dishes. Even when I order take-out. I plan to try the stews & hot pots next, as soon as the weather cools! Love this place!

Sooooo good tastes like my grandma’s cooking. The gamjatang definitely has been boiling over a long time and the chicken fried rice we got was made with love and spice (just like we asked)! It has plenty of portion too. Worth every penny, please try them out!

Delicious and fresh!!! Would come back again and try their other foods.

First, there was The Flame Broiler. Then came The 52M. A battle of Titans, in my mind, for the fate of teriyaki! The Flame Broiler with their "magic sauce" and 52M with their pickled vegetables. Both alike in dignity. Yet, The Flame Broiler came out on top. Why? Simple. Kimchi. That is my only negative remark when it comes to Choi's Teriyaki. No kimchi. Maybe that is just standard for take out orders but I missed it greatly! Still, all being said, Choi's half and half plate is delicious! The chicken is moist and juicy and the beef is tender and flavorful. The rice is perfecttt!!! The veggies are al dente which, all together, make a delicious, and healthy, bite of food. The only negative is the lack of kimchi but that's not their fault. I should have asked. I wanted that delicious, funky, world renowned kimchi and didn't ask for it. Next time I'll ask! Thank you, Choi's Teriyaki! I can't wait to have the gimbap and cold noodles next time! Thanks Choi's, you're my favorite!

So delicious!! This is my new Go-to for my takeouts! Love their tteokbokki and bossam! Their stirfry squid was super spicy and delicious. Will definitely be ordering more often.

Wow, came in expecting a typical teriyaki bowl joint but walked into a Korean restaurant. Based on the reviews I knew I had to order something Korean and went with a cold noodle and sweet rice drink since it was 90 degrees outside. The noodles far exceeded expectations and I've got to say this place would probably put most other Korean restaurants to shame. I'm hardly ever in this area but will make sure to come back the next time I am. You can tell these folks have talent in the kitchen and based off the other reviews, I think you could order pretty much anything off the menu with confidence.
A resounding yes with five stars all across the board. I really like this place, I've had it a few times and have come in with very welcome service. I've gotten the king dumplings, the cold noodles, and the oxtail soup. Each were appropriately flavored. The king dumplings were absolutely delicious, tasting so authentic. The cold noodles had a perfect amount of cucumber and the oxtail soup? Divine balance. By the way, I love the bonchan assortment. Make sure to check out this spot.

Service was very welcoming and the food is best quality for such a great price. They also do standard Korean dishes as well!

So good!!!! Learned about it from sister. Definitely coming back. Kimchi fried rice, gam ja tang, squid over rice and beef chicken combo plate were all soooo delicious. My mom is kinda picky and she was complementing how good everything was. And the ladies were so nice :)

This place shocked me how good it was. You would never expect this little place turns out one of the best jjokbal and gamjatang I've ever had. This includes 8th St Soondae and other top gamjatang joints in KTown. Run here. Trust me you will be floored how good. Slices of jjokbal is perfect. Texture and flavor 100% fire. The tang is crazy good. Thick stew, perilla leave seeds enriched. Rich pork flavor and pork meat fall off the bone good. I'm a fan for life.

Excellent Korean food had the king dumpling soup and potstickers. Awesome plus the Kim bob
