I always crave Juk when I'm sick or it's cold outside. It just feels so healthy and good for your soul! I always get the abalone Juk, chicken and veggie Juk. Their pumpkin Juk is good, too! read more

I hadn't been to Charm Juk in a long time, but I remember really liking it the first time I visited, and this time did not disappoint. My boyfriend was feeling a little snuffly, so we decided to get juk. In Korea, it's traditional to eat porridge when you're recovering or not feeling well, so it felt fitting. He had never tried juk before, but he ended up loving it and finished the entire bowl. He ordered the Tuna juk (참치야채죽), and I got the Hot Pot Rice with Fish Roe. While mine was good, I actually liked his tuna juk more. It was comforting and flavorful, exactly what you want when you're not feeling your best. I'll probably stick with the juk next time. The service was friendly and efficient too. Overall, it's such a cozy and comforting spot that I would gladly come back to. read more

This place is great! Love their juk. They have a variety of different juks (porridge). I always order their shiitake mushroom and shrimp juk $14.99, which is also good for your immune system apparently. Each juk comes with 3 small sides. Serving size is pretty big. Really great service; always asking if we want more sides. This restaurant is easy to miss because they're so small! They are right next door to super hmart. Although small, they have plenty of seats. Definitely recommend! read more

Came here for a quick bite and got the chicken juk (porridge). It was very delicious especially with the spicy garlic shoot kimchi (?) it came with. Will definitely be back once I'm in the plaza next and great for winter days along with whenever sick. Service was fast and friendly. Casual ambiance. Definitely gave me great mom and pop shop! read more

Very fun place. The girl that served us was very sweet and helpful. This was our first visit. We had chicken hot pot, pumpkin juk, and chicken juk. If you're new to juk, I'd compare chicken juk to the flavor of chicken and dumplings. Pumpkin was the best. I was worried it would be too sweet for an entree but it wasn't. read more

Wasn't feeling my usual 100% so I got some porridge/ congee. This place is great for some comfort Asian congee. It's a rare business but I'm glad this exists. Got the chicken and ground beef juk to go and it was still hot reaching home. I'm like 40 minutes away. Food tasted like home and was very comforting read more

One of my favorite eats when in town. Such a small, authentic Korean porridge shop. Their menu consists of majority of the common types of Korean juk. My favorites are abalone juk and the tendon juk. Service is always friendly, they take a little longer to bring your food out. But it's understandable since porridge takes a little more time to prepare. The quality is always consistent. read more

If you like rice porridge/congee/juk, look no further. This is the only place in DFW that specializes in Korean rice porridge. It's a big chain from Korea too. The restaurant itself is very small and intimate, and there was only one employee running the whole place when my friends and I came. We ordered seafood mix, spicy octopus, and non-spicy octopus juk and beef bulgogi hot pot. The juk had a nice texture of porridge and the little side dishes that come with them complimented it very well. The spicy octopus wasn't as spicy as I was hoping it to be, but it was still pleasant. The seafood mix juk had significantly more seafood flavor than the three of the juks we ordered, so I highly recommend that one if you are not used to eating mild food like juk. The hotpot beef bulgogi which was basically a hot stone bibimbap was surprisingly pleasant for a restaurant that does not specialize in it. It had ample amount of meat and vegetables along with side of gochujang and specially seasoned soy sauce which actually paired very well with juk as well. Overall juk is juk and is a dish not known to be bursting with flavor, but rather mild and easy for your stomach, making it a perfect meal for breakfast or when you're sick. Don't expect to be served heavily seasoned food and you will enjoy it. read more

Charm Juk - Regular Abalone Juk - Korean Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

One of my favorite comfort food offerings in the DFW area! Every time a gluten-free/celiac friend of mine is in the area we try to hit up Charm Juk because they offer delicious and generously portioned rice porridges that she can actually eat. My go-to is the abalone juk, which is has a delightful seafood flavor and comes with sides of marinated mushrooms, bean sprouts, and some finely chopped gochujang pickles. I've also enjoyed the oyster juk, the fresh fish juk, and the mixed seafood juk. My friend always gets the chicken juk and loves it. Most recently, my husband and I also tried their beef patty, and it was pretty delightful. Piping hot porridge is perfect cold weather or getting-over-an-illness food. It also manages to retain heat amazingly well. I once ordered the juk to-go, did some shopping at the H-Mart next door, and got home about an hour and a half after picking up the food to find that the porridge was still a great temperature to eat, no reheating necessary. Can't wait for the next time I come back! read more

I was excited to try Charm Juk because I never had Korean congee, and Charm Juk did not disappoint. I grew up on Chinese congee, so it's one of my favorite comfort food. We tried the spicy octopus and beef juk. Each came at a large bowl with small side dishes on a try. Good flavors and making this a great option for a cold day to have a large warm bowl of congee. Minor preference thing, my spicy octopus juk, while tasted really good, was overloaded with bean sprouts. Some may prefer it, but I felt like every bite is filled with sprouts and sometimes, I just want a nice mouth full of flavored rice. read more

Tip: Call the restaurant if ordering to-go because it's actually cheaper this way. This is my go to place when I'm not feeling good. All the Juk flavors are good but my favorite is always the chicken. Plus the portions are HUGE. It takes me 2+ days to finish everything. For those who aren't Korean, Juk is essentially the Korean version of Vietnamese/Chinese Congee. I highly recommend ordering when you need to have a good pick me up. read more

We love this place!!! The rice porridge is some of my and my kids' favorite! Everything tastes so fresh. The owner had cancer and started this place to ensure healthy eating for everyone.

Temp is dropping so we wanted something warm! I haven't had Juk since I was in Korea 20+ years ago and was excited to see a local Juk Joint I loved my dish and the bonchan, the mushroom bonchan was really tasty! Also I really appreciate places with good water! Can def tell the water they serve isn't tap, might be kangen or another alkaline water which makes the meal that much better! Cute place next to Hmart!!! Stop by for something cozy & warm! read more

Charm Juk - Shiitake Mushroom with Shrimp Juk - Korean Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

We found this spot through Mike Chan. Korean juk is basically the same thing as Chinese congee. It is a hearty bowl of rice porridge with meat and various Korean side dishes that you can add into your juk to add texture and flavor to it. We ordered the abalone juk and the deluxe seafood juk. Both juks were huge. It can be shared if you want to try different juks. You can split it into roughly 3 medium bowls or 2 large bowls. The bowls being the ones they gave on the side. The sides were sliced mushrooms, bean sprouts and kimchi. The sides gave the juk more texture. It makes a heart meal. read more

On a day for keeping warm. A day for hot drinks, soups, hoodies and TV. I chose rice porridge, hot pot rice, bulgogi & a bento box at Charm Juk Porridge Restaurant. (porridge restaurants are rear here in the states ) From what I gather, Charm Juk is a women owned small business. You get the full set up by dinning in. I recommend enjoying your order inside versus take out. Charm Juk will definitely be my go to spot for these Korean staples going forward. Delicious. Great Service. read more

Literally still thinking about this juk like a month later :)) A great meal especially when it's a little cold out or if you're feeling under the weather. The chicken juk came as a huge portion (I ate it for many meals after). The juk itself can be a little bland, but add toppings if you're craving something spicier - the mushroom bonchan and kimchi were great. Will definitely return!! read more

Charm Juk - Oyster Juk and Shrimp Juk - Korean Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

When you are in the need for some warm porridge whether it's for cold weather or for when you are sick, Charm juk is there for you! They have different varieties of porridges for different occasions. Few days ago, my stomach was bothering me for few days, so I made a to-go order for chicken ginseng juk. It definitely helped with the indigestion problem I had and helped me to get better sooner than later. For me, the portion is pretty big, so I actually ate it three different meals. Last time I was there, I saw that they were selling dduk galbi and other bento items... maybe I'll try that next time? read more

If you're craving Juk this is the perfect place. You don't see a lot of restaurants focused only Korean style porridge (Juk)- you see it in NY, LA and obviously in Korea. The portions are generous! Two people can share one porridge dish for sure or you can take the rest home and it's perfect to eat again later. A lot of different flavor combination you can choose from- I like that it's not overly seasoned so you can pair it with the other small salty side dishes. Juk should be a little bland since it used to be dish served to you when you were sick in Korea- (think like a staple such as chicken noodle soup when you're sick in the states). Located right next to H Mart- note: they are closed on Monday. read more

I already know this is going to be my go-to spot for comfort food whenever I visit Dallas. The small space is very clean and no-frills. My boyfriend and I shared the abalone juk. The restaurant had a lot of lunch orders and our server warned us it would take over 30 minutes, but I think it took closer to 20 for our food to come out. One serving was definitely enough for the two of us. The abalone juk was delicious, and I was really impressed by how flavorful it was. The toppings were also delicious, and overall it was exactly what I needed on a cold day. Our bill came out to a little over $20, which I thought was extremely reasonable for a filling two-person lunch. read more

I'm so glad this place stood the test of time and is still in operation. Whenever I don't feel well, this is where I pick up Juk. When my friend's father in law (Asian) was hospitalized, they did take outs regularly. My go-to is the oyster and mushrooms. read more
