Love everything about this restaurant. My family and I have been visiting off and on for a long while. The ladies that work here are attentive and warm. The food is delish!! We ordered seafood and scallion pancakes, marinated ribs, marinated thin slices of tender beef rib eye, stewed meat of ribeye bone in hot broth and bibimbap and fried dumpling. So good. I haven’t been into Korean food previously, yet you will if you visit here. If you do visit, come with an appetite

The food was delicious and it felt like going to your grandparents home. They took care of my 9 month old while I ate. It’s a bunch of grandmas and the food felt just like that comfort you’d get from your grandparents. Highly recommendKid-friendliness: Wonderful staff. Like family

The price of gomtang (beef bone soup) suddenly skyrocketed at GomBawoo. While the taste remains satisfying, the steep increase in cost has become burdensome. It seems to be the priciest spot in the neighborhood for both soju and seolleongtang (ox bone soup), considering the quantity provided. Despite the excellent taste, friendly service, and overall positive aspects, the frequency of visits is hindered by the steep pricing.

Decided to eat here while visiting Alexandria. The service was awesome. The ladies who worked here were very nice and welcoming to their restaurants. The food was good. We ordered 3 different kind of dishes and all of them were edible and yummy. Restaurant can get very busy and the emmonie will forgot some of the request but overall still good service and recommend to eat here. Thr banchan was good especially the fish cake.Parking: Easy to park as there are lots of places to park

Its my first time here at this restaurant for their Galbitang. We came early on Thursday evening and the place wasn;t pack (yet). The food came in really quick and had a great service. My partner had seollontang and we shared the seafood pancake. We both agreed that their seafood pancake is the best by far we ever had. It's crispy (and not so oily), flavorful and a packed with seafood. My Galbitang was great and I really enjoyed it as well. My partner said his meal was great as well (both of us consistently ordered the same dishes at any korean restaurant).

My absolute favorite spot for (Spicy) Galbi Tang. The meat is tender and comes right off the bone and the spice mixes in well with the broth - the good kind of spicy that tastes good.It's a bit of a hole in the wall with some elderly folk who mainly speak Korean but speak enough English to get you what you need.If you're ever craving the home touch and/or the warmness of Galbi Tang I'd highly recommend this place.

The seolleongtang soup wasn't hot and I know it's expensive, but the amount of meat was very poor. Only 4 or 5 pieces.

Authentic Korean restaurant. Looks a bit shabby on the outside but inside is a cute oasis. Food was better than other Korean in the area.
