Danbi Santa Teresa Korean Restaurant

Authentic Korean food owned by two wonderful women. Excellent service, delicious entrees, and generous portions — I highly recommend the seafood pancake, soft tofu stew, and yookgaejang.

The food was flavorful, but the portions were smaller than expected. We only received four side dishes, which felt limited compared to other Korean restaurants. They also charge $2.95 for hot tea, which is usually complimentary. On top of that, they automatically add a 20% tip for parties of five or more. While the taste was good, the portion size, limited sides, and extra charges made the experience just okay.

Been living in this neighbor hood for 25 years and always wondered what this place was all about. So today was the day I made the first visit and I will be coming back as a regular to try all the different plates and meals they make. I loved the Beef Bulgogi and Minh the lady in charge was great taking care of 3 different tables of customers. She was very helpful and educational on teaching me the way the food is served. The meals come with condiments to use and white rice. I was full with all of the food and look forward on bringing my lady and daughter some day soon. The facility was a medium size and plenty of seats available. I also found out they have a different location down town San Jose on First Street. The other customers were regulars and even shared some advice with me on how to eat the meals with the side dishes. The beef reminded me of a Mexican Carne Asada. Well cooked with the green onions and some type of cabage. I ate all of it and enjoyed the grilled hot stone plate it was served on. Korean BQ was a NOM NOM place

Great Korean food! We ordered all the traditional: army stew, seafood pancake, and hot stone pot. They are all delicious.Just one minor “complaint”: we were the last few customers before their lunch break so we paid during not after, when the lady collected our signed check she immediately looked at it and frowned at it as if she was not satisfied with the tip. The food was about $60 plus tax it’s about $67 and we paid $76 in total which is about 15%. I mean it’s not over 20% so may not be considered as very generous but come on, at least wait until you are away from our table…

Must be very much over-priced. Even more expensive than K-town and most of other similar korean restaurant in north bay. Food quality and taste is not okay either. Go other Korean restaurants in town..

Such friendly staff! Great customer service. Delicious food. I'm a huge fan of the Seafood Pancake #8 and the Seafood Ramen. Perfect!!! So much flavor.
Convenient location for picking up some dinner after other errands.

Small legit korean. It seemed they were the busiest in the entire complex. Very clean. We ordered the fried chicken, which was good even if it was just plain. For our main we ordered the beef tofu soup mild which I liked a lot. Lots of flavor and beef short ribs. The portion was a bit small, but it tasted amazing. The service was also very good and friendly. Their menu is quite extensive, so I will be back to try the other options.

This new Korean restaurant is nice and clean. The menu is big with many choices. We liked the complementary kimchi. Meet Jun, a Hawaiian-Korean dish is delicious. Spicy pork is tasty but on the sweet side. Stone pot is probably good if the default beef version is chosen. The tofu version is a bit disappointing. The pre-cooked tofu is completely burned black on one side and the portion is small. I will try veggie pancake next time to see if that’s a good vegetarian option.

UPDATE: Add pictures from the second visit

Most of the menus and side dishes were very delicious. Among them, the Korean barbecue beef ribs were the most delicious I've ever had.

Amazing restaurant! The Tofu soup was the best Tofu I have ever tried and the hot level of spice was perfect for a decent tolerance. Super nice owner I was checking it out a little before they reopened at 5. they let me order a bowl of soup made fresh immediately! They were super fast and friendly. Highly recommend.
