I had such an amazing experience at this restaurant! From the moment I walked in, the staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making me feel right at home. The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned.

The presentation was beautiful, and the portion sizes were generous without feeling overwhelming. You can really tell they use quality ingredients and take pride in every plate they serve.

Whether you’re new to Korean food or a longtime fan, this place is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back soon — highly recommend!

I overheard someone talking about how they have stomach issues and only eat at this restaurant now because it doesn’t use MSG. That caught my attention right away since I also deal with serious digestive problems and have to be really careful about what and where I eat. Unfortunately, a lot of restaurants use MSG to boost flavor, and my stomach just can’t handle it anymore.

From my first visit, I could tell the food here tasted different—very natural, homemade, and fresh. At first, it felt unusual because I’ve gotten so used to the artificial flavor from MSG at most places. But after a few bites, I started to really enjoy it. Each bite tasted better than the last. (You’ll know what I mean when you try it.)

You can tell they use high-quality ingredients in every dish, and it makes the food feel really nourishing. Most importantly, my stomach was completely fine afterward—no discomfort at all. That alone proves how clean and high-standard their food is.

This place has now become part of my weekly routine, and I plan to try everything on the menu. That should tell you just how good the food really is.

P.S. BYOB is allowed!

One of the worst food I tasted. I won’t be going back. We order baby octopus soup and raw squid ice noodle soup. The soup smelled too fishy. I was so turned off and the ice noodle soup had barely any squid in it.

Spoon and Chopstick is a hidden gem for anyone craving authentic Korean cuisine. The food was absolutely delicious—perfectly seasoned, fresh, and full of flavor. I especially loved their kimchi jjigae and bulgogi, which tasted just like a home-cooked meal in Korea. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even better. The atmosphere was cozy and clean, perfect for a casual lunch or dinner. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for real Korean food in a welcoming setting!

Came here for my mom's birthday dinner. I couldn't capture in pictures how great the food was. I think I might go to NJ just to visit this restaurant. The food was very fresh, tasty, and felt healthy. I would like to go there every day if possible.
