Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu(Sheppard)북창동순두부

Had a craving for bibimbap and Buk Chang Dong Soon didn't disappoint. Could have had a bit more meat on the bowl to add more flavor but it was still satisfying. Good service too.

It was average. As it calls Soon tofu, I expected this place must be expert in making tofu stew. However, it is quite disappointing.
The soup is plain and not enough flavor. I ordered seafood tofu soup, there’s no seafood flavor in the soup and the kimchi side dish is very sour. The side dish are less variety , it’s beans, onion and kimchi .
And the soup is quite overpriced. I do understand stone pot rice normally is pricier. But the Main dish of it not worth this price .

Our waiter was extremely friendly and served us well. However, I ordered a spicy chicken fried rice dish in which when I got my food, it looked like the chicken was old and was sitting on a table for a couple of hours. I took one bite of that dish, and it was cold, so I asked them to warm up my food in whi h they said they're going to make me a new one. Around 2 hours later, I explosive diarrhea and nausea/vomitting that lasted a whole night. I was extremely disappointed by this, and I hope no one else ever has food poisoning from this place again.

TLDR: Service was good. Food gave me food poisoning. (they gave me old chicken)

We ate at this location a number of times and each time the quality of food and service was great. The spice levels matches with our expectations.

The owner/manager is very attentive even during busy times and the service from the staff is also good. For example, a staff offered me an apron when I was wearing light coloured clothing, which I thought was caring of them.

In particular, I wanted to mention a time when I forgot my phone at the restaurant, and though it was passed closing time, the owner/manager waited for me to come back to pick it up. I really appreciate it!

Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu is one of those cozy, no-frills gems that never disappoints. My fiancée and I went on a Wednesday evening, and it was as bustling as ever—a testament to how popular this place is. It’s one of her absolute favorite restaurants, especially for the tofu soup, which she always raves about. She ordered her usual, and I opted for the rice and bulgogi combo. The bulgogi was tender, flavorful, and perfectly marinated, and the rice was served hot and fluffy.

The service was efficient and attentive, even though the restaurant was busy. Our dishes arrived quickly, and the servers were friendly, regularly checking in to refill side dishes and ensure everything was okay. Speaking of the side dishes, they’re simple but excellent, especially the kimchi and the bean sprouts—classic staples that complement the main dishes beautifully.

The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with that classic Korean eatery vibe—casual, welcoming, and perfect for both regulars and first-timers. Whether you’re here for a comforting bowl of tofu soup or trying the other dishes like I did, you can’t go wrong. My fiancée says it’s a must-visit, and now I see why. We’ll definitely be back!

Nice place. Simple tofu stew centric menu, reasonable prices. The restaurant was surprisingly busy, it looks like the business is good. Plenty of free parking around too.
