The food is not enough for an adult. To my surprise, this is a Korean restaurant without appetizers. Food is average but the price is high. Not recommended for sure!

The food tasted great! They look like a family business with less people so the service is not super quick

I'm really sorry to say, this place charges $30 for mall like quality Chinese food.. the place looks like a truck stop on the inside, the service was underwhelming..Princeton deserves a much better Korean food option than this sad place

Horrible customer service; When I declined the food for being not to taste, the manager loudly told me to “Be Quiet!!!”.. this created a spectacle for the whole restaurant during prime time dinner hour..this is not how business is done

Went there with 6 Korean friends and experienced the reversed discrimination. Asked if we are Korean, and then took back 4 of our menu sheets, telling us “I think you don’t need them all”.We ended up getting foods really late, and none of them was authentic and valued.

Parking: One of few places in the area that offers free parking! If you pull in the little driveway to the left of the building- drive around to the right side- it's a little lot where there is always parking available.

The place isn’t cheap. $40 for one person. Presentation and food was solid.Service was okay, quite attentive. But owner seemed slightly annoyed with my menu indecision.Public wifi would be nice.
Truly a hidden gem! The food at Soonja’s tastes great and really remind me of a home cooked meal. Everything on the menu tastes good, especially the Mandugook with the oxtail broth. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very relaxing and peaceful, and I enjoy looking at all the art pieces on the walls.

Extremely rude. The place is listed on google maps that its open until 2:30pm for lunch. Placed an order online at 2:05 and I get a call at 2:20 telling that I am taking too much time to pick up. I was told that he will leave the food outside and I can pick whenever I want to. Very unacceptable and rude behavior.
Recently visited there. The main dish (shrimp soondubu) was okay. It’s nothing special and I would rate it’s sub par in Korean standards. There was no side dish, not even kimchi. When I asked for side dishes, her response was “we don’t serve side dishes,” I’ve never been to any Korean restaurant without kimchi served.Also their service was terrible. The female owner was rude, and not friendly when I interacted with her. My spoon was dirty (sticky stuff was the spoon). When I asked her for replacement, she didn’t even apologize. It was a shame that this is the only Korean restaurant near Princeton university. I would not recommend to anyone who want to enjoy good Korean food.

Creditable Korean food. Nothing amazing, but definitely good. Have not jacked up their prices recently like many places.

This is probably the worst Korean restaurant I have been to in a long time. The 3 photocopy sheets of paper stapled together that they call a menu pretty much sums up the effort they take to make a decent restaurant, food quality and taste is

The Korean dishes were quite good that the whole party licked the plates clean, figuratively speaking. The owners were nice and friendly, and they've been running the joint for 28 years now!
A nice hidden gem for korean comfort food! Service was great and the owner's were very welcoming. Language barrier should not be confused as 'rudeness' as some people have.
