Saw it on Instagram and had to try — totally worth it 🔥😋 The spicy broth was perfect, not too hot but super flavorful!
Lots of toppings too. The clam kalguksu had tons of clams 🫶 but the noodle portion felt a bit small. Overall, so good! 🍜✨”

This 칼국수 doesn’t just fill your stomach — it fills something deeper, like your soul or that tiny lonely corner of your heart you didn’t even know existed. Every slurp is warm, comforting, and a little nostalgic, like a hug from the inside.

Now, let’s talk about the wait. Yes, it’s long. You’ll have plenty of time to contemplate life, the universe, and why you didn’t just eat at home. But here’s the thing: by the time you finally get your bowl, the anticipation only makes it taste better. Every noodle, every bite of broth, feels like it was worth a small epic quest.

Come hungry, come patient, and maybe bring a book — this place turns waiting into a sacred ritual, and the 칼국수 is the reward your heart and taste buds have been dreaming of.

Noodles soups were great. Dumplings were so-so. If you are looking for hot noodles soups, thus is the place.

I came here one night to try for dinner with a group of friends. I really enjoyed the noodles here! My friends ordered the clam soup with kalgusuk, and the noodles are at a perfect texture and the serving size was a lot. I would say good to share! I ordered the mandu soup with rice on the side, flavor was perfect! The fried dumplings was also nice, and it was great to share. Great kimchi as well!

Great place for traditional Korean noodles. The price is unbeatable with generous portion. The aunties there are nice and attentive, always asking if we need to refill our banchan

A lovely kalguksu restaurant. Good service, good panchan, and good food. Really big serving sizes. One of the places I frequently find myself eating at when I'm in Pal Park.

There was a strong, unpleasant smell as soon as I walked in (not sure about the smell, maybe restroom?) The tteokbokki was honestly the worst I’ve ever had. Super mushy and broke apart easily. Never come back again

This restaurant was delicious! You can tell it's pretty authentic by all the Korean aunties working there and the mostly Korean customers. The servers are very nice and speak both Korean and English.

I got the kongguksu, which is my favorite noodle dish. It's not as nutty as the ones in Korea, but it's pretty good and very filling. The kimchi was my favorite. It tastes saltier and more authentic than the ones you get in Manhattan.

This is one of my favorite Korean spots in Palisades Park. The food is homestyle, reasonably priced, and most importantly simply delicious. The donkatsu (not pictured) is extremely well made. The best part is that a lot of Korean aunties and uncles visit here, so you know its a gem.
