Ridiculously good and authentic Korean food. Would go here again I’m afraid. 👍👍

The jjajangmyeon was very disappointing. The noodles were very soggy, and the chunjang sauce was bland, too watery, and had a slightly off aftertaste. Gan jjajang might've been a more suitable choice for me but I think due to the poor quality of chunjang used, it wouldn't have made that much of a difference.
The jjamppong was alright, but the broth felt a bit thin and lacked depth. I also wish it had a bit more heat.
Rating: 2.5/5
The tangsuyuk was a letdown. It wasn’t fried properly, resulting in a soggy texture with a soft chew. It was also drenched in an overly sour sauce that overwhelmed the dish. They should tone down the amount of sauce and use less vinegar.
Overall, I much prefer Ming at H-Mart’s More Food Court for my Chinese-Korean food fix. In my opinion, the quality and flavor there are better.

Wanted to experience establishment, but really didn't have what I wanted to order for a quick take out. Though don't be discouraged to try it at your own leisure.

Excellent food.
Food was just abysmal. I paid $75 for 3 portions of beef bulgogi and rice. When I got home and saw this, it burned me up. I could get double the portion with flavor for a third of what I paid in a military town.
Awesome mom and pop shop!
My family used to dine in, and it was a small area and the food was okay. Recently, we decided that it would be better just to get delivery. The last 3 times we ordered from here, they canceled our order after making us wait for 30 minutes ~ 1 hour. Terrible service. When I’m writing this I’m also waiting for my order which I’ve been waiting for for an hour now. Really disappointed. Just terrible.

Clean hole in the wall place with great food and atmosphere. Took me back to the Chinese food places I used to eat at in Korea, where jja jang myeon, tang su yook, and jjam-bbong are staple dishes.

Sooo good. I’ve frequented this place for years when I get my Korean food cravings. The ladies working here are so sweet. Their jajangmyeon and kangpunggi are delicious ?

This is my first time living in the US since I was born haha.
As a black bean paste fan, I ordered jjamppong at Yonghwaru, which I visited in Philadelphia, USA because I was missing the taste of Korea.
I actually ate everything except the soup.
Was Jjamppong this delicious? I didn't find it particularly attractive in Korea. Maybe it's because it's in America?
Anyway, friendly and delicious!
It’s worth coming here on purpose~~~
I really enjoyed the meal.

My favorite Korean Chinese food place! Jjajangmeon and jjampong are their signature on the menu, so you gotta try it! Tangsuyuk might be too sweet for the first time trying, but I always get it as a side dish. Servers are very nice and fast.

I am in love with their dumplings! Every type of dumpling in their appetizer menu is phenomenal. The service is consistent and friendly. Easy parking in free lot. Fairly small restaurant so not the best for groups.
