My husband and I really like the 도가니무침 (spicy beef knee cartilage) here. It's sweet and sour with gelatinous texture that keeps you reaching for more. Yesterday we also ordered the seafood pancake and it was perfectly chewy with a crispy crust. The army base stew was good too. This place is BYOB which is great!

I tried this restaurant because it is located near Central Cleaners and Shop Rite in Palisades Park.

Great place for some Korean soul food. They open early and close late. I prefer the soonlongtong from Mami Best Food on Broad Ave but this is a nice place to dine at when you are with a group of friends or family. The service is prompt and friendly and their prices won't break the bank. There's only a few parking spaces in front of the restaurant, so you might be force to find street parking or push your luck parking at the Shop Rite lot.
