There is the feeling of comfort & tasty foods just sitting in the dining room, it's nice when it's crowded & busy but also good when it's quiet & empty !!I'll definitely be back again soon !!!!!

I finally stopped by one of the afternoon to order a bento box from kimchi house. Parking was easy…read morebut since it's next to a playground, I can see it can get packed when many kids around. Bulgogi was cooked nicely. Have a chance to speak to the lady owner. They used high quality meat and purple rice (healthy option). She was giving me some sweet potato's treat for tasting and I actually love it. When asked about delivery option, she told me the charge from door dash was too high for small business. I wish they have more business and keep this restaurant opens because I really enjoyed their food!

I came here on a really rainy day and this was the perfect place for warm, hearty soup. My boyfriend and I ordered the beef short rib soup and the garlic pork wraps. The portions were massive! We were basically able to make this 2.5 meals and we're both pretty big eaters. The soup was so flavorful despite being light, and the short ribs had a good chew without being too stringy. The garlic pork wraps were also delicious. I ended up ordering the soup again a few days later when I had a stomachache! I'll definitely be back here sometime in the near future.

That's because it was such a convenient food delivery spot for me during the pandemic that I never bothered. This was my first in-person dining experience here. Instead of pouring contents out of takeout containers, Jamie and I were engaged in a very hands-on preparation of our hotpot order. We went with the $47.99 Medium Pork Bone Casserole which served two hearty appetites (Photo 7). It consisted of a mammoth, meaty pork rib mixed with cabbage, potato, and sesame leaf in a flavorful soybean pork broth. For even more calories, we also requested the $3.99 Ramen Noodles (Photo 5). Add the generous servings of Banchan (Photo 4), and we were assured our gluttony remained intact.

Came here for a Friday lunch. I've driven past this location many times, but never noticed the…read morestorefront. Thank you Yelp for the referral! Mugunghwa has their own parking lot, which is nice since parking is not the easiest in this area when it gets busy. The restaurant is a pretty good size compared to the strip mall just north of this location. They could handle a larger group, no problem. We were a party of two and ordered a combo along with some wings. The food: The banchan here is S-Tier. Everything is so flavorful and there is a lot of diversity. I'm including the SSAM as banchan, which includes lettuce, thinly sliced, pickled daikon, thin pieces of raw garlic, pickled jalapeno and onion, and a gochujang based sauce. I really enjoyed the bulgogi with the sides. I wasn't exactly sure how to eat it, but I put a little bit of everything that came with the SSAM along with some rice and bulgogi and it was delicious. We ordered an 8 piece wing that they were able to split half Soy Garlic and half Spicy. It was nice they offer half/half on such a small order. Crunch was good, but not excellent. As part of the combo, we got the Seollongtang, a thinly sliced beef brisket soup and purple rice. The soup was neutral and not super beefy. It looked about right, but maybe it could have used a little more salt. Overall, really impressed with the selection and the complimentary side dishes here! Excited to find another solid Korean restaurant in the Bay Area.

My family has gotten food poisoning here in TWICE!! First when they opened and then in May 2026…read more Both times we got their meat dishes, and I have a suspicion that they're stored or cooked improperly. Everyone that ate the bulgogi had diarrhea the next day. It's sad bc the flavors of the food here is actually very good and authentic (and I've gotten the hot tofu soup many times and that seems to be okay). If you look into the older reviews, you can see that there have been others complaining of getting food poisoned. I hope they take this issue seriously and look into their food handling practices. For health reasons I will not return back here unfortunately.

Everything tasted fresh and balanced, and the whole experience felt cozy and relaxed. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to again and again

This is my favorite Yummy House location out of the 2 in the area. While they don't get many…read moredine-in customers based on what I've seen, that never gets in the way of my decision to keep coming back for more. My usual is the Poke Salmon with no corn; it hits the spot every time. Each component always tastes fresh and flavorful. I often order to-go and eat at home, so I wouldn't normally order a drink. However, during my last visit amidst the recent heat wave, I decided to give one a try. Their Jasmine Green Milk Tea tasted exactly how I daydreamed it would; perfectly floral, just the right level of sweetness, and no hints of bitterness from the tea.

The ramen is comforting and hits the spot when you want something warm and filling, while the poke bowls are fresh and customizable, which I liked. Portions are generous too. Nothing super fancy, but it delivers on what you want: tasty food, good portions, and affordable prices. Would definitely come back when I'm in the area

I was having dinner with my friend and he suggested to eat at this place. I have never been here…read morebefore and the name seems rather unique, so I decided to give it a try. Would never have guessed it was a Korean restaurant. We were seated right away and our server was pretty attentive. We got the usual bon chon of appetizers and were able to place our orders quickly. Kimchi Jeon: I always love the Korean pan cake. My choices are usually the Green Onion or the Kimchi variant. Here, they had the Kim chi version. It was crispy and fried to perfection and was not salty. The dipping sauce helped complement the pancake and there was plenty enough to go for a second round. Soy garlic and spicy fried chicken: This was absolutely delicious. The spicy was not too spicy, with just the right amount for the kick and not making me want to drink milk. It was also crispy and crunchy, which is what I expect from Korean fried chicken. The soy garlic was phenomenal. The sauce was not overtly sweet and it tasted what I expect from the flavor profile. These pieces were also fried to perfection as well. Kimchi Soondooboo: I always love the soft tofu soup and I am glad they had this here as well. The version here is vegetarian (though you do get an egg). The tofu was soft and there was plenty of it in the soup. My only complaint personally was that the broth was a bit bland for me. Could be that I am used to have a meat version of kimchi Soondooboo. It still tasted delicious on a cold night, but I felt it was still missing some seasoning or flavoring. Overall, had a great experience here and looking forward to coming back.

Felt like we had the whole place to ourselves, they even have a tv where they play the football games with kpop music in the background. Their banchan was SO good and fresh!! They also replenish if you finish the first round. We had a part of 3 and I ordered the chicken dolsot bibimbap (hot stone), galbi, and seafood soondubu (tofu soup) with no spice. We devoured our soup and all all of our bibimbap and galbi. We also ordered galbi dinner takeout which is the galbi, a cup of rice, and huge portion of the banchan! It was soo good, they also serve beer and soju here, feels like you're in Korea! Service was great, there was only one server and he was able to manage everything. Also a good place for takeout too!
