Delicious tofu soup (highly recommend the sausage and spam), beef bulgogi, and decent banchan. I do wish they would rotate their banchan but on the other hand, it's consistent. The grilled mackerel is also good but suggest you share it because 3 mackerels for dinner for one person is a lot. Always busy here after 6pm which adds to the atmosphere.

Banchan were put openly in random places. Servers were not responsive. Tofu soups are plain.

previously given 5 stars in early2023, we were regulars but there seems to be a management change. The last 2 visits, the Medium Spicy Tofu soup was served BLAND (no salt whatsoever... just red chili flakes in hot water)... twice in a row...horrendous service.

We ordered the fish roe tofu and spicy squid togo. Overall the food generally didn’t live up to expectations with the sides being especially greasy and flavorless. The fish roe tofu tasted alright but at the bottom we found a charred lump that looks like it got accidentally scraped from a pan. Generally not worth the price and especially disappointed by the foreign object in the tofu

The food is ‘OKAY’ at best. The service is terrible. They clearly don’t care about customers and I am sure the ownership only cares about money. The lady who wears glasses is particularly rude. She served the plate above my head. Not going back again!

I've been to other tofu places and if you want an authentic Korean tofu, you should go to this one. I usually don’t eat Tofu in Bay Area as tofu here is below my expectations and go to BCD tofu in K town but this place is genuine. Their banchans are very fresh and true to Korean and tofu soup taste is very thick and deep. I also recommend their watermelon soju in summer. The owner makes it out of fresh watermelon and it’s something special for the summer!

Service was excellent ? Owner couple was very polite and kind. We had a large group of 13, but they accommodated right away moving tables. The food was good and my friends had a fun time being there. #Yangcandosocanyou follow my YouTube if you like to see more kicking videos. Enjoy your day with tofu.
This little gem is tucked away in the Saratoga Square plaza by the freeway. I was craving some bibimbap so I decided to finally try this place. They were crowded at 6pm on a Monday night! Ordered takeout and the portion was huge! It was delicious. I love all the crunchy veggies with the flavors of the meat and rice. The portion they give is honestly enough to last for 2 meals. Came with bean sprouts, tofu and japchae on the side. I definitely want to come back and try their Korean short ribs!

It was a Friday night at 10pm. Came him after seeing a movie. It was still open.Seating- it's a very small place, but surprisingly, we got a table for 4 right away. Food- -Bibimbap-hardy and many varied of shredded ingredients -Tofu soup: ordered a mild combination and non spicy seafood. My seafood was full of clams, oysters and mini shrimps. -Banchan were a good size tooReturn Factor- we would definitely come back especially because they are open late and on the West side of San Jose.

Looks like they changed hours recently and they are now open till 12 am. I have been on a tofu soup spree over the past few months and now have a good idea of what goes into the making of a good bowl and the best side dishes. We got a a chicken tofu bowl for the kids and I got a mushroom tofu soup- spicy version, husband got the beef bibimbap.First of all the side dishes are not plenty, but even within those limited options I thought they had the best version of the glass noodles. I liked it enough to request for a second serving. My soup was heartwarming, and not overly spicy though I got the spicy version. It lacked salt though as did the kids chicken tofu soup. We requested for soy sauce which helped bring out the flavors and make everything more palatable. The beef bibimbap was apparently very disappointing- no flavor and very less meat.

As Korean, this place is ok but not authentic. Medium is too bland and all you can taste is only rich soup. They don’t really use aged paste that makes deep spicy taste. Banchan was ok but tofu stew by itself is too mediocre.
