I sometimes go to Jaws when I'm craving tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes). Today, for the first time, I added ramen noodles to the tteokbokki, and the noodles were perfectly cooked – not soggy at all. However, I was disappointed that there wasn't as much broth as usual. The kimbap (seaweed rice rolls) is also delicious and generously filled. The fried food is always crispy, and the sundae (blood sausage) is even better than what you'd find at a typical sundae shop. The only downside was that I went right when they opened at 11 AM, but there was no street parking available, so even though there was plenty of parking in the lot, I had to pay $3 for parking.

jaws is my go-to when I’m craving korean street food! we got tteokbokki, korean blood sausage, and 2 gimbaps – more than enough food for three people, we were stuffed with leftovers! my mom and I are quite picky, but jaws satisfied both of us. tteokbokki was perfectly spicy with soft, chewy rice cake + blood sausage was cooked perfectly tender + gimbap with hefty fillings (our pick was the fried shrimp gimbap)!

Food is very subpar for the price. The topokki was just okay, but nothing outstanding. The Gimbap was terrible, the seaweed tasted stale and it was so stringy so hard to chew ended up choking on it. Better options at this price you just paying for the brand name.

Beautiful packaging amazing presentation my first time trying kimpab I thought was going to taste like beef and veggies all the flavors combined as if I was eating galbi ribs salad it’s magic in rolls also if your a health fanatic a perfect 👌 meal for lunch time topoki is different never tried definitely has a sweet taste all flavors of what is listed taste fresh I will need to eat on the spot to taste the full experience.
Ah, when the owner is there, everything is perfect? The food is amazing, freshly prepared. But when he's not, it's different like today. For example my food was kind of like a little hard and like if it was from yesterday or from earlier, it was not fresh because when I had arrived to pick it up, they were barely packaging it. And I was like, oh yeah 😎 ready for that fresh hot bowl but nooo 😔 it wasn't fresh today.I will put back 5 stars after owner notices me 😀 please I love it here lets keep it fresh!!!
Edit: Thank You so much, I love your food and I will always support your business 🙏. If you've came this far to read my review (people looking for good food) then you've found the spot. Try their bulgogi bowl and chicken it's amazing!! Please support!

We did food delivery and it was not good at all. It was not tasty and our drinks tasted spoiled. It’s def not shikhye. Will not order again.
I was craving Korean food, and Jaws fulfilled that perfectly. They have affordable bento boxes with a variety of choices. Their gimbap is so good and tastes fresh. I had the spicy pork belly and shrimp gimbap. It comes with sides as well, included is side salad , Kim chi and fish cakes. There’s definitely a spice to it… my lips are still tingling! Jaws deserves a repeat visit… I want to try their other menu items like the tteokbokki and cheese balls. They also have the option of doing half size! You know it’s legit when it has add ons like quail eggs and mozzarella cheese! They also have slushies. Korean heaven!

Food was ok. Looks like we have to ask for sauces/dips. Without the sauces, the sides are bland. The bowls are good. Parking bit challenging

Reviewing to remind myself to come here in the future. Really good topokki (can do half sizes), soondae, and kimbap!!! Didn’t like the sikhye slushie it’s too sweet and fermented for me.
