Hands down the best authentic Korean restaurant in the Philly area. Food tends to be on the spicy side, so err on the mild side when ordering. Prices may look high, but they give you soooo much food with your meal. Not to mention the fact that its all fresh and made to perfection.

The servers were very kind and answered the various questions our group had. The banchan was delicious as was my la galbi. The environment is warm and inviting.

Didn’t appreciate Gratuity being added automatically to bar drink orders. I paid cash and Bartenders didn’t say anything when I tipped additional cash (why would they). It’s just dark enough I didn’t notice the first time, when I bought a round of drinks ($10 gratuity added) but when I bought a bottled water and a ginger ale it was $10, I took a closer look and came to the realization. I purchased food that was separate from the Karaoke room package and it was placed on the table with the party package of food. I had to get up myself and decipher what I purchased and bring to my table as if I was the Server.

The quality of the meats is consistently outstanding, and the overall experience reflects one of my favorite cuisines ever done right — authentic, comforting, and deeply satisfying every single time. The flavors never disappoint, and the care put into each dish really shows.
On top of that, the service is always wonderful — warm, attentive, and welcoming. This place holds so many memories for me, and I keep coming back because it simply never fails. Highly recommend to anyone who loves great Korean food and a genuinely good dining experience. ❤️

Their sundubu soup is so delicious. Especially i like sundubu jjolmyeon which is served noodles instead of rice The side dishes are also yummy;)
I really enjoyed my visit to Dubu. The food was warm, comforting, and full of flavor, especially the tofu dishes, which tasted fresh and homemade. Everything came out hot, and the portions were filling without being overwhelming. The place has a cozy, low-key vibe that makes it easy to relax and enjoy your meal. Overall, it’s a great spot if you’re in the mood for good Korean comfort food, and I’d definitely come back.

The food here is great. The younger staff is great but there is an older women that isn’t so friendly and rushed me to order. She didn’t even check up on my table. This is not the first time I’ve had her. She needs customer service training. Really makes me and my friends not want to come back. I’ve been coming here for years.

Food and service is good. A bit heavy on the salt in the dishes. Parking can get a bit crowd.
Food is just okay but more Importantly don’t reserve a room cause they’ll give it away and when you ask them what happened they’ll laugh in your face. I’ll never go back.
