Kong Sarang Tofu & BBQ

This was my first time having Korean. It was delicious! The spicy chicken was very hot, very flavorful, and the portion was large. My friends really enjoyed theirs too! Excellent food and excellent service!

Tteokboki tastes like water without any flavor at all.

Food is soo good and authentic, love their beef soup! Will come back!

My go-to Korean spot. Love their food! Seafood pancake, bimbimbap, japchae, all good stuff

Kong Sarang BBQ is a hidden gem for authentic Korean food. The BBQ is delicious and well-prepared, but the real highlight is the 11-dish banchan — fresh, flavorful, and generous. It makes the dining experience feel truly authentic and satisfying. Definitely one of the best Korean spots in the area!

Love their food and service! They generously refill the side dishes constantly. All yummy! Our top picks are kalbi, seafood pancake, kalbi tang, and the spicy beef soup.

We came here as a family and had a great experience overall. The food was the highlight — everything we ordered was delicious and tasted very authentic. We tried several dishes, including soups, rice dishes, fried rice, and tofu soup, and honestly, every single one was excellent. You can tell they really know what they’re doing in the kitchen.

The service was also solid — friendly and efficient, with our food coming out in a reasonable time.

The only downside is the atmosphere. The interior is pretty basic, with simple tables lined up in rows and no real design elements or cozy booths. It feels more like a fast-casual or cafeteria-style setting. That said, if you’re going for the food (and not the ambiance), it’s definitely worth a visit.

The service is really rude and rapid. The food was in extremely large portions that could feed 2-3. I wouldn’t come back. I found the chicken disgusting

The food is okay, but the service is disappointing. No smile at all except when handing out the bills. There is no refill of appetizers, even if requested, is still unwillingly.

Arrived at lunch on a Saturday with no wait. Fantastic banchon spread (8 dishes, the usual fish cake, kimchi, bean sprouts, etc). We ordered the galbi and soondubu combo to share, along with seafood pajeon (crispy and delicious). The combination soondubu was absolutely delicious- really flavorful broth and generous range of mussels, shrimp and meat. The galbi was pretty good and arrived on a sizzling plate. The house made kimchi was fantastic- with a deep umami flavor. Overall, loved getting some delicious home cooked Korean food. Will definitely be back!

The service here is fast and expedient. They are indeed very generous with their portion of banchan and brought out a refill of the whole set of dishes eventhough we didn't ask to refill certain dishes. The banchan kimchi is very good.

We ordered combo of tofu soup, yukgaejhang noodle soup and kimchi pancake. The tofu soup were good. I love their kimchi pancake - right balance of taste to texture and very crispy. The yukgaejang comes with knive cut flour noodle but I had them replaced mine with ramen instead. The broth was ok. (I’m bias as I compared them to a much more flavorful place I had in SoCal).

Ambiance - clean and spacious. It wasn't as hot or humid as what some reviewers mentioned. Maybe because they had their front doors kept open when we were dining there and it was also a cool breezy evening.

My top Korean spot in the area. Service and taste is excellent. Price is a little higher, but they’re generous with the banchan side dishes (which you can also order to go) and the overall portions are good, so it ends up being very reasonable.

Fav is the galbi, nicely charred and fatty
