I’ve been here a couple times and both the food and service have been fantastic. I recommend the Pajun (both types!) and the Kim Bap to start and all of the entries are super flavorful. They’re also willing to substitute and add on to make the dish to your liking. The extra spicy Bulgogi was incredible! I’ll definitely be taking everyone I know here!

I have been here many times and the food is always spot on and consistent! Quality is amazing for its price! The spicy dishes are truly spicy which I appreciate.
I love their bulgolgi, bibimbap, kalbi, and fried chicken. Their dishes are savory, sweet, and addicting. If you like seafood, you will like their stone pot dish chu gu mi dol sut bibimbap. I will definitely come back to try other dishes.
Ambience and service are great! It’s a good sit down restaurant for a relaxing or romantic dinner with a couple of cocktails!

This place was such a good find!! Everything tasted great and came out fairly quickly. Cocktails were interesting. Service was lacking a bit though.. we only saw our server when putting in our order. Not many table touches at all. We would’ve ordered another round of drinks and possibly another roll if we were checked on.

One of the best meals I've had in months. The charred brussels sprouts with the samgyeopsal was unexpected and really delicious. We sampled several things from the menu and left wanting to try everything else. Great atmosphere inside. Will be back very soon—maybe next weekend

I'll be honest, I live right around the corner from this place and often forget it is there until I go in and remember why I love it so much! Do not let yourself leave without trying the scallion pancake, it's my favorite starter! My first time here I made the mistake of having a dish so spicy hot that I could see through time for a week afterwards! But Everytime I've been back since, I've loved the meals! Great tasty, straightforward dishes with complex flavors that somehow don't overwhelm and that aren't too salty or strong. The drink menu is fairly simple, and they are light on deserts, but the staff is always friendly and prompt. The atmosphere is a bit like dining at the friend of a friend's house, nothing too fancy and just the basics.
Parking: Right in the heart of busy Andersonville and paid street parking is often impossible to find. Do yourself a favor and park a few blocks away and walk.
Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room to navigate but there is a small platform in the back that must be navigated to reach the bathrooms.

After leaving California many years ago, I really missed Korean Food. Jin Jun has been my go-to place for Korean since a friend of mine discovered it several years ago. Staff is super friendly and food comes out timely. Even as a vegetarian, I find the food wonderful. I have some friends with food allergies and they've always been super happy here!
Vegetarian options: The Kimchi is not Vegetarian but the other sides are.

I like the vibe in here. It was welcoming and fun, yet not too tightened up like a bar feeling where you can lay back a little and enjoy the evening. As I don’t drink, I ordered just my favorite Korean dish that always make me happy, bibimbub with raw squid that served in a hot bowl and a scallion pancake, I liked them both. And my friend ordered soup with soju and she said she enjoyed it too… We will come back!
