"This was my first Korean food experience so I don't have too much to compare it to I guess. However this spot was amazing!! Everything was perfect. The place was packed but they still managed to squeeze us in within 10 mins of waiting and had our food not too long after that! Fun ambiance filled with lots of people and really chill staff that work really hard. Unlimited side dishes of kimchi etc."

Dan Sung Sa

★★★★☆ 3.9 (994) • $$

"Dining at Dan Sung Sa in approximately 2018 with some of my friends/classmates was a unique experience in terms of ambiance/atmosphere, food, and discussion. We were a cohort who entered Ph.D. programs in the same department in the same year. We opted to come here for food to do a semi-routine check in with how we were all doing.The line was not too long for us when we arrived and we were seated in our own house-like booth. While there were many other diners, the interior decor helped provide a physical impediment to sound from other groups carrying into our booth. While we did strain at times to hear each other, we did hear that one of us, Nate, was getting married and only their families were invited (small ceremony). It was also the occasion where we were informed another one of us, Luke, was leaving with a Masters degree and going to pursue goat farming.Not sure how long we wanted to catch up, we decided to pick a dish per person (approximately). The food came out in a few different batches. We were hungry when round one arrived and ended up liking the staggered delivery, our immediate hunger was alleviated with the first round and we filled up with subsequent round(s) of dishes. Servers/workers were busy, but did not forget about us."

The Sister House

★★★★☆ 4 (798) • $$

"Caveat: 4.5 stars rounded up to 5 Hole in the wall restaurant in an outdoor mildly sketchy (but safe) shopping center. Small space, but enough seating/turnover there shouldn't be a wait. Seems to be family-owned and staffed. Friendly workers and extensive menu. Great banchan spread and food is delicious with generous portions. Definitely worth going to if you're in the area!"

Tong Soon Garden

★★★★☆ 3.8 (831) • $$

"I came to Tong Soon Garden with my friends after hearing good things about its Jajang Mein and Fried Chicken. I came to a completely empty restaurant and we were seated immediately. The servers welcomed us and the place is very traditional with large wooden tables and open space. We asked for recommendations, which our waiter helped explain each of the dishes. We placed our order and the dishes came out quickly one-by-one.I really liked the Jajang Mein and Kan Pung Gi. The Jajang Mein was so flavorful with the thick black bean sauce and bouncy noodles. The Kan Pung Gi was crispy and the sauce was sweet and tangy. We also got the Eggplant with Garlic Sauce, which was good but very heavy from the sauce. The Jjampong was also good and had a softer soup. The sweet and sour pork was a little off putting by the color, but the taste was actually quite sweet. We had a good time enjoying all the dishes, and our server gave us pear slush drinks and fortune cookies at the end!For all this food, it was decently affordable. Although there were a lot of fried dishes, I still enjoyed it."

"All you can eat. Food was pretty good to me. I just wish the service was faster but the staff were nice. It seemed they were low staffed. They did the best to try and change the grill too.

"We've driven past this spot countless times but never ventured inside--until now. Celebrating a personal milestone, we finally gave it a try, and wow, we wish we'd come sooner!On a packed Friday night, the lively atmosphere set the tone: tables full of smiling groups enjoying incredible KBBQ. We opted for a set meal and were thrilled when the servers not only brought everything out but cooked it for us right at the table. The meat? High quality and perfectly cooked (no risky burning the dinner for me here!)This isn't a fancy spot, but it's full of charm. The owner treats everyone like family, striking up warm conversations with regulars and newcomers alike.The star of the night was the kimchi fried rice, prepared tableside. So, the next time you drive by, don't just pass it--stop in and treat yourself. You'll leave full, happy, and already planning your return!"

Happy Sushi

★★★★☆ 3.9 (659) • $$

"I was happy to find this place open till 8:00pm on Thanksgiving day (an hour earlier than their normal business hours, but good enough for me). Ordered for pickup in advance. The restaurant had a cute atmosphere with indoor seating, no one dining in on this holiday evening, not surprisingly, but a handful of takeout orders were neatly bagged and sitting on the table, my order ready when I arrived. The staff grabbed my bag and politely handed it to me, a simple and smooth process.I really enjoyed the baked lobster roll, with shrimp and crab meat and a lobster mix (large flavorful chunks), and a nice kick from the spicy mayo. It was so delicious, and a decent size for a meal. Wow, I sometimes feel like all sushi spots are fairly the same, but this one stood out to me with the quality and taste. It was definitely memorable, and makes me wanna come back for more."

Ondam

★★★★☆ 4.1 (557) • $$$

"Finally came here last night with a small group of friends. Always better to do korean food family style in my opinion. We were able to be seated immediately but any later than the 6pm arrival time, we probably would have had to wait. The restaurant itself is very stylish along with their menu design. The menus themselves are already worse for wear though. All our menus had torn or ripped pages in them, which is surprising since it's a fairly new restaurant that's on the nicer side. What we ordered: -kimchi pancake ($9.99): this was a nice and tasty pancake with nice texture. It's a thicker pancake than I'm used to. It could be a little crispier.- seafood pancake ($20.99): the seafood pancake I really liked along with the rest of the table. Nice and crispy with a decent amount of seafood. Probably my favorite dish.-seafood kalguksu ($22.99): the most disappointing dish for me. The broth was on the bland side. Noodles was decent texture but just not a good quantity of noodles. We barely got 4 people enough noodles for a quarter bowl of noodles each and still had a 5th person. Plenty of seafood though, also on the bland side though. The noodles itself is a like a 2/5 for me.- steamed dumplings ($13.99 for 6): the dumplings were fine. Needed the sauce and then was very tasty. The one on the menu shows 4 mandu but on the electronic ordering, it is 6 regular steamed dumplings. - bulgogi sotbap ($26.99): the bowl was surprisingly deep so had a lot of rice. It showed some crispy rice at the bottom, but I'll try to ask them to cook it longer so it's actu crispy. The bulgogi itself was good but not very bulgogi tasting, like lacking in that bulgogi sauce. Pickles that came with it were good.-ondam chicken platter ($21.99): this had a nice variety of kfc in 3 different flavors. My favorite was the fried garlic one. The sauce it came with was good and went well with the kimchi pancake actually. I wish there was the option of bone in or boneless chicken. But decent amount of chicken for the price. Could be fresher or crispier when it came though. -complementary bonchon: the bonchon options here were quite delicious. I really liked the black beans and the green veggie dishes. A very solid bonchon.For the price point and quality of food, I gave 4/5 stars. We were able to feed 5 people very well for around $30ish each. It's on the blander side flavors wise. Great bonchon though. But tasty enough overall where I would crave it enough to come back multiple times, especially with a group. My biggest gripe is if they're doing electronic system, should have the option to ask for water or tea. It was quite difficult to get water refills. We also asked for tea at the beginning but that never came. Servers were quick once you did manage to get their attention."

"Pros:Large Portions, really fast service. Food was piping hot. It's nice that they have this Japanese & korean restaurant in between the Vietnam shops in case you want to try something else. Tastes Homely. The high ceilings are a nice add to the restaurant Cons: Nothing that comes across, is it the best korean food I have had? No, but it's still pretty good for a quick bite."

Mom's Tofu House

★★★★☆ 3.8 (627) • $$

"TL;DR: friendly spot with comforting Korean food but prices were high for where it isMom's tofu house has had a recent facelift, I noticed that they were closed for a bit and have since reopened with a brand new, bright and airy interior. Service is friendly and you can call for service whenever you need it with the handy button on the table.The menu is pretty extensive, with most of the classics you can imagine. From the signs on the wall, they make their own tofu for the restaurant but I was interested in the pork soup since you don't see it at too many places.Pork soup: this was served with purple rice on the side, as well as chives, chilli paste and salt. The soup was pretty flavorful already so I didn't really need the salt, and warm and comforting and quite rich. I was surprised that the meat in there was pork belly, I thought it might be a different, more meaty cut like shoulder. Nevertheless, this was yummy.Spicy pork stone pot: everyone loves a good stone pot with the crispy rice! They had oiled this pot well so the crispy rice came off easy and was delicious with all the crunchy vegetables and spicy pork.The banchan provided was ok - they had fishcake, soy sauce onions, bean sprouts, some green vegetable, and 2 kinds of kimchi (Napa and radish).Honestly the food was pretty good and I would go back if the prices were lower. But for at least $20 per entree, I found the spot quite pricy especially since there are many more affordable options in the area."

Hansang Tofu

★★★★☆ 4.4 (423) • $$

"Visited this restaurant for a late lunch yesterday and was pleasantly surprised. Despite a 15-minute wait for a table, the experience was well worth it. I was drawn in by the appealing photos on Yelp and the menu, which looked promising.I ordered the beef tofu soup and a half order of the sweet and spicy fried chicken. Both dishes were flavorful and satisfying. The tofu soup was rich and comforting, with tender beef and a well-balanced broth. The fried chicken was perfectly crispy, with just the right amount of heat and sweetness.The meal came with complimentary banchan (small side dishes), which were a highlight. The selection was generous and included a variety of fresh and tasty options.The restaurant has a family-friendly atmosphere, and the service was attentive and efficient. I would definitely recommend this spot for anyone craving delicious Korean food, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit!"

K Kitchen and Fish Day

★★★★☆ 4.3 (406) • $$

"I heard Fish Day recently renovated and rebranded to K Kitchen and Fish Day. Previous version was very yummy so thought it would be worth a try. I visited on a Saturday during lunch time. STARS (stand out qualities)-customer service was one of the biggest stars. the owner-couple were so warm, responsive and helpful-local business owned by people of color -food was good quality AND quantity-food came out freshly made and hot -food presentation was nice -owners gave extra for certain banchan since we ate it quickly-reusable eatingware -beautiful interior dining area with booths and tables/chairs-clean bathroom -plenty of parking STAIRS (areas of growth)-recommend compostable or biodegradable large takeout boxes (they did have small compostable ones) -prices feel high to me but I think they are competitive Bay Area prices. Worth the price for all the stars above TIPS-prepare for cash payment if you want discounted prices-I recommend the Chive Seafood Jeon and Ddeokbokki and which was very flavorful and packed with good ingredients -bring friends, family and coworkers! Seems to be a hidden gem at the moment"

Tin & Pig - Kang Tong Degi

★★★★☆ 4.1 (445) • $$

"First timer, Tin & Pig is def serving up some authentic Korean food. The ambiance was great the meals are extremely hearty but also pretty pricy which is why I took a star away - not saying it's not worth it but it could be a tab then again what's not now a day's. I'm a huge fan of Kimchi Stew this one had pork in it, very rich & comforting on a rainy night served with a side of rice. Def enjoyed it. Got the sweet & spicy wings & the plain wing's I wanted the sauce on the side but it's $3 to have the sauce on the side which kinda confused me? Regardless packed with flavor and fried to perfection. The bulgogi w/rice & egg which is semi pictured could honestly be skipped on. It was good but it didn't stand out to me. Def wanna try hot pot going back.Over all the customer service was great, the gentleman who served us was very personable & he checked in but also gave enough space for us to have a conversation. Hopefully you guys enjoy this place & try it out :)"

Loved my fried chicken and waffles, wifey loved her ricotta pancakes. Will try the Loco Moco Next time. The ambiance is a little on the louder side since it's a small place. But cozy and feels very welcoming. Will definitely come back and visit The Sunday... on other days as well.

Go Goong

★★★★☆ 3.6 (542) • $$

"My friend and I love Go Goong! The beef soft tofu soup is what we order everytime. We get medium spice, which is perfect for me. The restaurant is open for lunch and then again for dinner, so you have to check the times. They play Kpop music. There are plenty of tables. We have never been on the waiting list before lunch. We usually get there around 12:00. The banchan is always good. My friend likes the fish cakes, they don't always have it, but you can ask. I like the kimchi and the cucumbers. The Galbi is delicious! I ordered it to go for my husband and they packed it like a full on lunch with rice and banchan. It was so cute! I was just expecting galbi. We have had the seafood pancake, which is delicious and also the chicken wings are good and crispy. The rice tea or water is delicious. I'm not sure if you have to ask for it. But we had it last time we were there.The waitress is very sweet. She remembers my friend and I from coming in before. Of course we will always be back to have our tofu soup."

"I've been searching for a Korean bbq burrito after my favorite one closed down so this place was a must-stop on our day trip to the East Bay. It's located inside of Lake Chabot Public Market to the right of the entrance. They sell branded merch that we were so tempted to buy! They also have a little grocery store section which is perfect if you needed to grab a few things.We ordered the kalbi burrito and bulgogi cheesesteak. She warned us of the wait time before we ordered, which we appreciated. She quoted us 20-25 minutes but it wasn't too long at all! We got our food in about 15 minutes but I appreciated their transparency. Had to take a bite of the French fries first - they tasted like McDonald's! My kalbi burrito was huge, and so good. The ingredients could be spread out a little better, I was eating just plain rice for the first 3 bites. And all of the kimchi was in the very last few bites on the other end. But otherwise the meat was tender, although could've been more of it! I also would've enjoyed some kind of spicy creamy sauce, maybe like a gochujang mayo. The size was plenty and I was able to take home half to eat for another meal. The burrito was closer to a 4 star but my review is going to be a 5 because of my husband's bulgogi cheesesteak. It was also very good size which is good since both were $15 each without any side or drink. The meat was so tender and there was a nice kick to the flavor. The tomato and lettuce were unnecessary since those aren't on cheesesteaks normally but I could eat those peppers all day. They were sweet and not overly spicy. I hope they read this review and tell me what kind of peppers those were because I need them in my everyday meals at home!Really great experience here - I'll definitely remember that cheesesteak!"

"I can safely say, as a person who does not regularly consume Korean cuisine, that I deeply enjoyed my experience at this Korean BBQ Restaurant! The food! Gosh! I adored how flavorful and crispy the vegetables and meat was, along with the sauce being deeply soaked into each food item that I eat here. The service at this restaurant was very professional and efficient. I appreciated how the waiting time for my food was around 20 minutes tops as well. And lastly, can I just say how I was delighted to see that this restaurant had Korean symbols plastered through the restaurant, along with Christmas music playing in the background was a great mix for a perfect ambiance present in this restaurant (:"

"Good for the Seoul Nondescript Mom & Pop run restaurant not too far away from 237 that's seemingly been around for maybe 30-40 years from what I can tell. I'm not sure if it's the original owners or was sold at some point, but the food seems to have stayed consistently good over the years.I wanted to come here after reading Elena C's review of the Liang Zhang Pi (LZP--yeah you know me!) because I'm always curious to try new-to-me dishes and it was a cold, rainy day and figured why the hell not?The Good:*Customer service was friendly, fast, and efficient. *Décor is simple and understated but enough to know one's in an Asian restaurant. *Complimentary hot tea! Seems simple enough, but so many places charge for simple things like this these days.*Who's down with LZP? Everybody! Essentially, it's a cold noodle salad with shrimp, squid, and more veggies than you can shake a chop stick at. The concomitant peanut-wasabi sauce was sweet, spicy, and delightful. *Black Bean Sauce Noodle (aka Jajangmyeon) is a popular Korean noodle dish that we'd tried before, and theirs was delicious. Earthy, sweet, and served with oodles of noodles. *Their Dry-Fried Fried Chicken Wings are nothing short of FANTASTIC! It is so crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. My one complaint was I wish they were a little spicier, but Carissa felt the heat level was fine. *Housemade ban chan (pickled radish and kimchi) were also both terrific. *Servings are massive, and we had plenty for leftovers for the next day. *Prices were very reasonable, especially considering the portion size. The Meh:*Beer was served tepid, at best. Maybe they had just restocked the fridge, and it hadn't come up to temp yet? *I'm a little confused if this place is Chinese, Korean, or just a place that serves up both? It's definitely not fusion, as the two cuisines are definitely held in equal regard.*No outdoor seatingThe Ugly:*Evidently, not everyone is on-board with the whole cutting the noodles with scissors thing, as I was notified by another Yelper who shall remain nameless. (:TLDR: Come for the LZP, but stay for the wings. Highly recommended."

Beijing Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.9 (412) • $$

"3.5 STARSBeijing Restaurant isn't your typical Chinese resto.It's like they're living in 2030. Their Chinese entrees are priced 25%-70% higher than other Chinese restos in the area. They're not upscale and they're not using premium ingredients so what am I missing? School me. Since opening in 2014, Beijing Restaurant has been a staple in Santa Clara for Junghwa, Korean-style Chinese food (sister businesses: Roll N Noodle & Two Zone Chicken closed during the pandemic). It's a cuisine created by Chinese immigrants in Korea. Open for takeout, delivery, and indoor dining. No more outdoor dining. During the pandemic, we did outdoor dining and had an underwhelming experience but recently gave them another chance. This time for delivery since I had a UberEats discount. D I N E - I N // April 2022 // 3 STARSFor outdoor dining, food was served in takeout boxes with disposable utensils. Best part of the meal?The complimentary goguma mattang: candied sweet potatoes - so delicious and addictive!* Complimentary Banchan: Kimchi + yellow pickled radish* B3 Mandu - Steamed Meat Dumplings (6 pc - $9.95) // 3 Stars: https://tinyurl.com/4zjnh5jvStandard - chewy wrapper with a savory pork filling but large air bubbles and bland. Other than packets of soy sauce, no dipping sauce was provided. * H11: Deep Fried Prawns in Hot Pepper Sauce ($23.95) // 3 StarsPlump shrimp with a good savory, mildly spicy sauce with a kiss of sweetness. Arrived completely soggy tho since the box was sealed with no vents. * J1: Jjajangmyeon: Black Bean Noodles ($10.95) // 3 StarsA variation of Chinese zhajiangmian, the jjajangmyeon's black bean sauce had good savory sweet flavor with bits of pork, potatoes, onions, and mushrooms. Noodles were overcooked and clumped together. D E L I V E R Y // October 2024 // 4 STARS* Complimentary Banchan: Kimchi + yellow pickled radish* J14: Jaengban Jajang - Spicy Dry Fried Black Bean Seafood Noodle Plate ($26.95) // 4 Stars: https://tinyurl.com/2znv2a4jSister to jjajangmyeon, jaengban jajang is the way to go if you have more than 2 people. The stir-fried black bean noodles were glossy and chewy, tho were overcooked so it was missing that QQ bouncy chew. Chockfull of shrimp, octopus, potatoes, mushrooms, and onions. Good heat with a savory sweetness. Def eat with the yellow pickled radish for refreshing, acidic in-between bites. Def like this better than their jjajangmyeon. * G8: Tangsuyuk - Sweet & Sour Pork, Beijing style ($23.95) // 3.5 Stars- Requested jjikmuk style w/ red sauce on the sideArrived fully sealed with no vents but luckily the pork wasn't soggy since it was nekkid (sauce on the side). The fried strips of pork were crispy and tender with some slightly fatty pieces. The onions, carrots, and bell peppers were still raw. Canned pineapples for sweetness.I personally like the radioactive Chinese-American red sweet & sour sauce more than the usual Korean-style orange sweet & sour sauce. * F2: Mongolian Beef ($24.95) // 4 StarsTender, savory slices of beef served with crisp green and white onions. Topped with fried vermicelli noodles for texture. Menu said, it's "spicy" but it's not. Couldn't detect wok hei and I don't think they velvet the beef (didn't have that obvs softness). * Rice ($2 x2)Properly cooked. No goguma mattang included for delivery orders. =(S E R V I C ECordial and prompt. Delivery took 40 minutes (about 8 minutes away). A M B I A N C EBustling with a mainly Korean crowd on the weekends. There's about a dozen tables inside and several private rooms.

I've been here so many times and can't get enough of it!THE BROTH - Amazing. Adjust the saltness levels based on your preference. * Seolleong Tang: Sliced beef brisket, white noodles, green onions, comes with rice. Clean broth.* Kkorigom Tang: Oxtail, white noodles, green onions, comes with rice. This one is probably the best thing on their menu. The oxtail is so tender with their silky broth.*Kimchi Jeon (pancakes, 3 pieces): Their kimchi is spicy, so keep that in mind. Such a good pairing with the soups.* Haemul Buchujeon (seafood pancakes, 3 pieces); They give a lot of seafood and chives. * Mandu (potstickers with beef, pork, veggies): Korean potstickers hit differently with their noodles inside. So much flavor!Lastly, their banchan side dishes are incredibly delicious. They cut fresh kimchi at your table :) There's a kick to it. Beware that their prices may seem expensive, but it's worth the price and trip to the restaurant. Service is wonderful. The ahjummas love giving us more banchan. Even better if you can speak Korean ;) This restaurant also takes me back to my Seoul trip where everyone is so warm and inviting."
