KJUN is a small eatery that combines Cajun and Korean flavors, attracting both locals and visitors with its unique fusion. The Fried chicken with gochujang remains crispy and flavorful, not too spicy, while the Jabchae with squid ink is still fantastic. The Seafood Jjajangmyun is amazing, and the Boudon balls continue to impress diners. The friendly staff and attentive chef, Chef Jung, create a welcoming atmosphere. Customers enjoy the blend of New Orleans and Seoul cuisine, with bold, spicy Cajun flavors influenced by various traditions, alongside popular Korean kimchi dishes. Appetizers such as okra kimchi and cobbler corn salad are favorites, and menu options like kimchi jambalaya and ribs are highly recommended. The restaurant offers individual menus for around $60 and larger sets for groups, with attentive service and no alcohol—only soft drinks and root beer. Despite its small size, the cozy environment feels like dining at someone's home. The fried chicken takeout is praised for its tender inside and crispy outside, served with a sweet, tangy, and slightly spicy pickled watermelon rind, plus complimentary coffee butter cookies. The online ordering system makes it easy to enjoy their Korean-Cajun fusion at home. Many visitors leave happy and full, eager to return for another visit.
