I dont know where the name Jeju came from when Nothing stands for the Jeju island or their food. First of all I needed to leave this place once I got confused from the menu, which requires only course meal for $75 when I needed a simple entry while a long hour driving. The course meal place in Korea is distinguished from the outlook and this fusion place looks like a pub, similar to nowhere. May try a shot to visit later as food quality in the photo looks reasonably good but still in question if worthy for $75 per person. Might be looking to take the K-food boom premium...Anyway giving 2 stars as the name confused to sacrifices my time.

KOREANISHWe loved the food here, but didn’t think the service or atmosphere were awesome. If you don’t mind a loud environment with ill-behaved children, then this is the spot for you.Yes… I know it’s not the restaurant’s fault people don’t know how to raise children, but it is their fault to not force the parents to either leave the establishment or make their children behave. They should 86 the kids meal they offer to discourage parents from bringing kids.Anywho… Server was friendly and that’s about all the good I can say about them. Pace of meal was super awkward and they did not have finished plates cleared in a timely manner. I was also never offered a second beverage after finishing my first.Food was delicious and I may choose to dine at chef counter in future, but am not a fan of the fixed meal as only option. Banchan was nothing special, but the meats were AMAZING. Everybody loved dessert, too.Like Han Oak, this spot delivers great food in an uncomfortable way.Kid-friendliness: Keep your kids at home or make sure they behave

My kids took me to Jeju for a memorable delicious surprise birthday dinner last night. It was a wonderful high quality healthy food experience with every dish well-balanced, full of umami. Their desserts were out-of-this-world so Scrumptious. Amazing service-thoughtful and attentive, warm inviting ambience...

You need to know this place. A unique blend of tastes. Fresh fresh fresh. Light-filled ambience. The Cantor Troy cocktail is fab. Dietary accommodations for wheat and dairy free were communicated and well done by the chefs.Dietary restrictions: Wheat and dairy free diet was communicated well between staff and they all advised us about ingredients as the food was brought to the table.Parking: Around 5:15pm there were plenty of parking spaces on the street in front of the restaurant

Stunning and delicious modern twist on Korean flavors. Portions were enough for everyone to be satisfied without being overfull. Set menu priced for a splurge-y dinner. Cocktails were unique and fun. Soju had the cute little auto-pouring frog. Cool to see the meats being aged in the back fridges (during the walk to the back restrooms).

This place is amazing! My partner and I wanted to go out for a nice dinner to celebrate her promotion, and I found Jeju. At first, the pictures from where I had made our reservations just looked ok, but the menu was very interesting sounding. When we arrived we were not disappointed. Everything we ate from start to finish was very tasty, and the staff was extremely nice and attentive to my partners food allergies. We will be back!Dietary restrictions: They were able to accommodate gluten-free and dairy free.

Remodeled industrial building with exposed wood decor. Spacious atmosphere, comfortable seating. Enjoyable outdoor patio. Service is not in a hurry relaxed friendly, casually dressed, with not much to do except bring back drinks. Banchan is a petite 4-dish mix of Korean & fusion. Meats are prepared ready to eat, grilled in the kitchen. Portions are noticeably smaller than typical. The server makes no suggestions over empty dishes unless you request for refills. A taste of some contemporary Korean without the traditional feels. With pricey drinks, expect $100+ per person. Hopefully the small private parking is available; street parking not recommended.

Phenomenal dining experience! The Valentines Day set menu was delicious, thoughtfully planned out and flowed perfectly. Every element of every dish was delicious! The service was impeccable. Each person we interacted with was friendly, helpful, and professional. A++ can’t wait to come back.
