“Nice new remodel. Really good waitress and the owner was working the room and was fun to chat with since I was by myself.Korean Fried Chicken ??Outside was crispy and gooey, sweet with a little heat and the chicken was juicy and flavorful. The pieces seemed hand cut from a whole chicken and I got more than half a bird. Yummy banchon on the side.I can't wait to return.Parking: st“
“Sodam good!!! Honestly did enjoy picking up some food from here. Tried most of the basics- stir fried fish cakes, couple kimbaps, chicken wings, tteokbokki, kimchi... their gochujang based sauces have a nice kick to them and I was loving the flavor. One thing that would be nice is if their items had a bit more included i.e., fish cakes is just that- stir fried with green/ onion would be great too! The shop is very cozy with a tiny dining area as well as takeout. And overall the place functions as a small restaurant/ mini-market for Korean goodies. Loved the friendly and prompt service and design of this place.“
“Cocurry was here forever, but even the last time we came, it wasn't the same. Kong Sarang, on the other hand was hopping! The place quickly filled up after we arrived. That always happens to us. We ordered the seafood pancake and the combo of pork belly and tofu soup. They quickly served us with 8 varieties of banchan. I was a tad disappointed that we didn't get asked like the tables around us if we wanted any refills on the banchan. I felt like once we ordered and our food came out, we turned into red-headed step-children, and they forgot about Dre. The food was good. Comparable to Tofu House in Newark. The seafood pancake was hefty. She's a big girl. One could get full just off of that. We probably would return if in the mood for Korean food.“
“My mom and I came to visit 2/28/24 and neither of us have had authentic Korean BBQ before. We were both so blown away. Everything was delicious and you could tell the owner truly cared about his restaurant and every dish that came out. He recommended the bulgogi japchae, the sweet and spicy chicken, and the potstickers. (Sorry for not getting exact names right) I ordered the soy garlic chicken as well. Let me tell you, that is the best fried chicken I’ve ever had. Every bite was crispy, juicy, and flavorful and all of the other sides were delicious as well. I am so glad we found this place and my mom and I truly had a great night. Thank you so much for your kindness and we will be back :)“
“Very good and authentic Korean style Chinese food! Glad this one is close by. I don’t have to drive all the way to Santa Clara anymore. Jjamppong is one of the best I have had in US, with just the right spicy level. It comes with a lot of seafood, which is probably why this dish is much more expensive than Jajangmyeon. Jajangmyeon was a bit too sweet for me. Nothing special with Tangsuyuk, not bad but probably won’t order again next time.“
“Loved the vegetarian options. There aren't many of them, I probably tried them all and you need to inform the waiter if you're vegetarian so that they avoid the fish in everything.I loved the rabokki (rice cake ramen) with medium spice, very flavorful and spicy and was my favourite item. I also loved the vegetable pancake, crispy and tasty. I liked the tofu bibimbap too. I liked the soft tofu soup as well but the egg did not cook in the soup like they had mentioned so I don't recommend getting the egg.The portion sizes are good for sharing and each dish is probably good for one person.“
“Really great food, and of the Korean chicken places I have explored around the Hayward area really captures pretty authentic KFC flavors in both sauces this establishment has. The soy garlic has that nice bit of added flavor and the Korean spicy sauce is sweet and closer to a Thai chili with something like an added gochujang influence. They both have a pretty solid crunch. Also the bulgogi kimbap is really great, with that perfect marinated bulgogi flavor on big cuts of kimbap. I like the radish they serve on the side it tastes much like BHC type of radish, syrupy and sweet almost like 7up or an equivalent was used to soak it. The service is really friendly, nice folks working here. I like this place a lot, thanks for the good food!“
“I usually ordered "Combo 1". This is a Korean BBQ set that the menu said "KOREAN B.B.Q / MARINATED KALBI A. B.B.Q. PREPARED FROM KITCHEN B. SIDE DISHES + VEGETABLE PANCAKE + JAB CHAE C. CHOOSE ONE : TOFU SOUP OR BEAN PASTE STEW D. CHOOSE ONE : CORN CHEESE OR STEAMED EGG"BBQ is 4 kinds of bbq (beef short rib, bulgogi, pork, and chicken). This is for 2.“
“The first time I had Rice Junky was actually at their second location in Santa Clara. I'm an East Bay fella so South Bay is a little bit of a reach for me. I've been having cravings for Rice Junky lately so I decided to check out their Fremont location. First off just want to note that this location is take out only. It's a pretty small spot. BUT that doesn't take away from the fact that the food is so so dam good! It was everything that I remembered and loved from the first time I had Rice Junky. At first, looking at the bowl. I was like "oh man, they give you less chicken here." Nope, I was absolutely wrong. Under that top layer of chicken was much more yummy sauced up chicken! Rice Junky is great, The bowl is fantastic. Portion is just right, slightly above average actually. Little pricey, but honestly with inflation nowadays. Food everywhere is expensive so meh. I just wished they stayed open later like their Santa Clara location. I gotta try all their other items. Only been loyal to the CC bowl so far. But the bowl is dam good!“
“So ecstatic to have a Seolleongtang place not too far away. This is great for any occasion but especially perfect for cold or rainy days, the soup will just warm you up.The menu is pretty straight forward, mostly soups but you can also get a few other types of dishes like galbijim here. You can't really go wrong with any of the soups here, but there is a distinct difference with Seolleongtang and the galbitang. The main difference between them is whether ox bone has been used. Galbitang is a clear beef soup made by boiling galbi--while seolleongtang is beef bone soup made by boiling the shank, the head and other scraps of bone until the broth turns milky white. The seolleongtang will also come unseasoned and you can add salt/pepper to your taste while the galbitang will come seasoned.Their side dishes are also delicious, I particularly love their kimchi, pairs perfectly with the seolleongtang.There are plenty of tables and the service is great, highly recommend if you're looking for a nice warm soup!“
“Came here for takeout for the super bowl and we were lucky enough to get squeezed in since they were so busy. Shared the medium fried chicken for 2 people which came with rice and salad. Got the soy garlic and spicy medium flavor. Both flavors kinda tasted similar. The spicy one tasted like the soy garlic but it was the perfect level of spice. The chicken was plump and moist, and perfectly crispy, even eating it after taking it home. It's expensive but I do appreciate the sides they give to make it a real meal. The salad was also light and delicious. A perfect compliment to the heavy wings!“
“This barbecue restaurant is a true hidden gem! The service was incredibly prompt, and the staff's passion for their craft shone through. The food was a culinary delight, from the perfectly smoked ribs to the delectable sides. The cozy ambiance, with its wooden furnishings and soft lighting, created a relaxed atmosphere that was perfect for unwinding. I left with a full belly and a big smile.“
“Second time trying this place and this time it was better. Still sad not about the banchan but I'm just spoiled being from Koreatown LA. The food was really good, super clean place, portions are still big and shareable. Service was fast and friendly, bathroom was very clean and place was still insta cute. Definitely coming back when getting a craving for some Korean food.“
“Food was great and service was great. Never felt like we needed to ask for anything, the waitresses refilled our banchan when we were low or our ASAP. Plenty of parking as well.Kid-friendliness: The waitress kept our daughter in mind by giving her a small bowl of rice on the house and would playfully ask questions about/to her.“
“Lovely little restaurant with the most attentive staff and delicious food. I got some crispy Yang-nyum chicken and it was heavenly. Best Korean fried chicken place I’ve ever been to. The owners are so friendly and make the entire experience so much “
“5 stars for service!! Staff was super attentive and quick & hardworking despite it being quite busy. Refilled our bonchons when it got empty without us asking, explained what different sauces/things were for.Food was pretty good. Ginseng chicken was a little bit dry for the chicken and lacking in ginseng, but this is in comparison to the ones I had in Korea. Tofu soup & seafood pancake were pretty good; had better elsewhere (not in the bay) but it does the job. Japchae was a little too elastic but had good taste! Slightly on the pricier end as well (tofu soup was $17.5)“
“A very nondescript spot with heavy construction in front of the restaurant but oh am I glad I ate here!! The Kalbi was absolutely delicious!!! And I ate every single piece and wanted more! But alas I was too stuffed and can now only reminisce on how good my lunch was today.....“
“Came here with some friends right before their happy hour ended but Gina was so nice and decided to honor it for us anyhow! She also brought us soooo many bonchons (note you do have to order an entree for bonchons) We ordered a lot of food which did take some time to trickle out but we understand as Gina seems to be the only server that night. Korean pancake - 4.5/5 I loved this one cause it was thick and very crispy. My friend did say she prefers the pancake at Sisters House tho because it's thinner there Tofu soup - 3.5/5 it was a lil underwhelming and not salty enough and I feel it was missing a little depth of flavor. My friend and I both prefer the tofu soup at Sisters House BBQ Pork Sizzling Platter - wasn't very well charred. I don't usually get sizzling platters but the ones at Sisters House is better The fried chicken - 4.5/5 very good! I liked the crispiness of the chicken and inside was juicy. You do have to pay extra $2 for flavoring or for it to be crispy so keep that in mind. We did dip this into our tteokbokki/sausage sauce which Gina recommended Tteokbokki/sausage skewers - 3/5 I thought it was just okay for the price of what it was lol. I don't love the sausage but the tteokbokki did have a nice lil crisp to it on the outside but with that familiar chew once you get to the center“
“We came on a Monday evening which is a slow night in general so the restaurant was very empty. We ordered the Bulgogi bowl, spicy pork bowl and cheese Bulgogi fries. It was a great value meal because of the amount of food there was in each bowl. The food tasted good but since it was a slow evening for them, I think a lot of their food is made in advance. Elements like the meat and the egg don't come out super hot and fresh tasting. Maybe it would be different if it was a busier night and they were making items to order. The Bulgogi cheese fries were decent but the areas with the cheese got soggy really quickly. Probably wouldn't order that again. I would recommend this place for the great value and comforting food. I just wish some of the key components of the bowls were made to order so it's hot and fresh tasting.“
“One of many Korean restaurants in the Bay Area we had to try on our list. This one had a good list of choices and their dishes were pretty big except the chicken wings which always seem to always take the longest to cook.The garlic wings were good but some pieces so tiny that they should not count towards the fifteen pieces. The seafood pancake was good flavor and good size. I really liked the kimchi fried rice, spicy pork and Premium LA Kalbi. The Steamed Egg had no flavor and it had too much soup in it which I thought was weird. We ordered sodas and their Lychee Cocktail for twenty bucks which was a carafe pitcher size. It was pretty good and strong; nothing fancy. We also ordered Bibimap which was pretty big.Choice this Korean restaurant for mom's bday and was satisfied. The prices were on the expensive side. Not a place for a date as it's loud here but good for groups and drinking. Service is ok. They forgot one of our items but at least, they didn't charge us; we did have a big group though. Haha they even told us politely that we had to go as they had awaiting customers. The place is small, and can get crowded fast so I recommend to come early but lots of parking available.“
“Not quite feeling a burger and want something hearty with some Asian fusion? Koja is your calling! Crispy rice patties with succulent meat previously marinated and seasoned to fill each bite with a burst of flavors is what you'll find in each Koja sandwich. Pair it with one of their loaded fries and you'll be full for a good few hours. Or share with a friend and have enough space in your stomach to grab a light dessert afterwards.Beef Koja is my go to as I like how the juicy pineapple goes with the deliciously flavored meat. The combination of textures with each bite make it pleasurable to eat; great mix of soft, tender meat, crunchy yet moist rice, and sweet, tanginess of the pineapple make you crave for more after you're done (and I would if I could fit more in my belly!)The loaded waffle fries are filling and are well balanced between the meat and potatoes. Great as a shareable side or a light afternoon snack.Ordering is straightforward through their kiosk and the staff here are friendly. The place is clean so if you decide to dine in, it'll be comfortable and you'll have plenty of options afterwards for dessert or activities (it's right across the theater).Overall, I am grateful to have a Koja so conveniently located in central Fremont to satisfy those rice patty burger cravings as well as fill me up on those errand runs. The food and service is consistently good; just hope the prices stay competitive!“
“One of the best hidden gems in the neighborhood. You will definitely missed it if you don’t look for it. This Gangnam Tofu House is located in a small mall at the end of the Thornton Avenue. Owner and staff are super friendly and food is always good. If you can’t take too spicy, ask them to tone it down to your level and enjoy. I have been here many times and will go again.“
“Pretty great option for chicken around here. I have always enjoyed Korean style chicken so when I saw options such as the honey butter or yangyum chicken here I definitely had to try it. Firstly, both the wings and drumsticks are huge and satisfying to eat. At its core it is great fried chicken with just the right amount of crunch without losing its juiciness. Flavor-wise I think both of these options are really good. The yangyum chicken, kind of wish had a bit more gochujang/garu smokiness to its flavor, tasted closer to tteokbokki type of sweet sauce and that added savory bite would have really hit my taste buds right. The honey butter chicken is equally great with a sweet and flavorful bite, though they only add just enough powder to get the flavor... would prefer it coated.Service is friendly and the front is simply a walk up counter, no dining in, etc. the pickled radish that comes with the chicken is better than alternatives I have been to but is still missing that refreshing bite that I have had in Korea.“
“Great spot for Korean inspired meat plates and sandwhiches!Definetly recommend!The spicy chicken isn’t crazy spicy, it’s sweet and spicy just to the right amount.The rice has some beans inside too which makes it extra good!Vegetarian options: YesDietary restrictions: Ask the staff, but not easily visible on menuParking: 10 or so spots.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“korean fried chicken (kfc) in dublin...strip mall location next to luv 2 play...actually located inside bangkok jeong korean bbq restaurant...does have a signage outside, but inside is mainly a kbbq restaurant setup...vons chicken is like a ghost kitchen within...walking in during weekend lunch hours before super bowl....placing an order of the full crunch fried chicken $36.99 (+$1 for wings) and full honey butter crispy fried chicken $36.99 (+$1 for wings)...paying about $85 for 2 full order of kfc wings...roughly 30 minutes...told to wait at the bench by the door and not in the restaurant...restaurant was mostly empty, but constant flow of delivery drivers walking in and out to pick up delivery orders...long wait, but finally ready...plastic bag and boxes partially open to keep it vented to retain the crunch...traveled well and ready for the super bowl...vons kfc was quite popular...the unique sweet and salty flavors of the honey butter is excellent and the most popular choice...the crunch fried is good also...“
“If you’re craving Asian fusion, then you gotta come to @sia_newark for some delicious Korean tacos, burritos, burgers, and fries.The hot + sweet wings and soy garlic wings were crispy and tasty. The stir-fried squid [Ojingeo-bokkeum] had the perfect spiciness, while the Galbijim had ttoekboki in it and it was delicious.Aside from the Galbijim, we love the spicy pig's trotters (aka pig feet), it was so tender and savory with the perfect balance of spicy & sweetness. It was so freaking good with rice. Highly recommended.20% off Happy Hour specials (4-7 pm)?Come check them out!“
“My friends and I have ordered from this place many times on Doordash but never have we been to the restaurant. We usually get one of the combos that consists of Korean fried chicken, kimbap, and fries. The fried chicken was delicious and packed with flavor and crunch! Kimbap was decent and fries are fries. From ordering dishes at Aria, I can say that everything has exceeded expectations!“
“This was somewhat pricey as meals go, but it being all you can eat makes it much better for people concerned about being full after hot pot without paying a huge amount. I enjoyed mixing my sauces with ingredients like green onion and minced garlic. Picking out a few new things from the case to try without needing to get a set amount and paying for a thing I might not like was a good perk. Soft drinks and dessert, tasty coconut pudding, being included was another great upside. The spicy broth was good. I wasn't that impressed with the chicken coconut broth and I didn't really like the raw chicken that came with it. The other meats were fine, but some of the beef was somewhat chewy.“
“Really enjoyed their tofu soup (not too oily or dark red in color). However, there were only 3 small pieces of beef in it.I really liked their banchans. Most places only give you 3-4 but they give you 9 here including all my favorites: pickled radish, seaweed, marinated cucumber, fish cake, bean sprouts and glazed potatoes. I also liked that they give the yellow Croaker with the soup as more places do not.“
“We had an assortment of dishes and shared all as one would family style. The sauces and ingredients were quality almost as good as we had overseas. What highlighted the key ingredient was the noodles. Better than most casual locales we’ve experienced. I couldn’t recollect the Korean dish names, but check the pics. After lunch, we came to the consensus that the dishes we had were better than expected. Our foodie has been to Santa Clara location as well and precedes that this location has better quality pork dishes. Hope someone will agree or have similar experiences. As always, post wherever you end up.“
“A nice and simple local Korean restaurant. The food and service are good, the menu is straight forward and the pricing is reasonable. I love their kimchi, it’s not sour like most kimchi, it has a savory and strong peppery flavor which I love.“
“Mama Cho's is a GREAT Castro Valley bistro that serves Korean American fare. Due to it's location, it's a hidden gem that deserves a visit whenever you're in the area. It does not disappoint! I tried the Kalbi Burger and KBBQ Plate - both are delicious. The store carries a lot of Korean food products on their shelves. If you're looking for a one stop shop for lunch and kimchi - this place is worth checking out!“
“Not a formal setting, this place reminds me of a simple cafe in a suburb of Incheon or Daejon. That being said, the flavors here are all there. Arrived very hungry after lunchtime and we were quickly satiated. Food was delivered fresh and quick by a wonderfully friendly Korean lady. Happily when I asked for extra Gochujang - she brought a whole squeezy bottle full for us to enjoy. Abundant banchan rounded off this very satisfying meal. So much so that we totally didn't want to go back to work afterwards - lol. Come here if you want a quick, simple, no-nonsense Korean feast. Will definitely recommend to all my friends in the Freemont area.“
“Pretty chill place to get Korean food in Dublin when you're craving it. It shares space with Vons ChickenMy friends and I were craving Korean food and also wanted to check out the new Korean market nearby so we made a game time decision to go here!We ordered the hot stone bimbimbap which is our norm (yummy with veggies and beef), jap chae which was ok, the cold noodles (yum), short ribs (ok a little sweet), and the bossam (pork wraps). If you're also looking for fried chicken you can order at Vons lolCheck both places out!“
“The best sushi in the entire area and county. . Everything here is a very high quality seafood. I REPEAT Everything here is a very high quality seafood. There is no fake in it. The staff make you feel like family and everything is very professional .“
“Awesome, authentic food!! Big portions with quality ingredients--no skimping or filling up on cheep stuff here. My friends took me here and I later took my picky Asian parents here because it was so good (and not too salty!) It's a small, family run place. Service was fast and everything was clean. Also as a special callout the kimchi is 11/10 amazing, they make it themselves and cut it in front of you at the table!“
