I've been here multiple times now and I can say with confidence that this place is amazing. The staff and service is honestly one of the best. They are consistently coming around to check on us and give us any refills whether on the kimchi or our waters. They are also really fast and wait time was minimal for both our table and the food. The place is cozy and looks well-structured. I also love that every table comes equipped with condiments and utensils you may need, as well as a call button for staff to come around your table. Hearing the 'ding' is always really nice. The actual food itself truly tastes like home. Everything is so comforting and you can never get sick of food like this. The portions are also huge so bring an empty stomach or a big group. We always manage to have leftovers whenever we come here. I absolutely love the pajuns, and always find myself gravitating towards the seafood pancakes, and they do not skimp out on the seafood either. The mandus are extremely filling, and the meat inside is nice and juicy. The noodles itself are honestly so refreshing and hits the spot every time. I've heard people debate on whether kalguksu or sujebi was better, but this place makes it hard to decide every time-they're both just so good. I honestly highly recommend this spot whether you're going with friends, family, or even on a date. Just remember to bring your appetite and don't make the mistake I made in the beginning, going on a Sunday, they're usually closed. read more

This place is always packed. I don't think I've ever been here when it wasn't. I love their seafood pancake. It's thick, crispy, and always one of my favorite dishes to order.

The servers are always friendly, attentive, and very polite, which makes the dining experience even better. read more

Excellent authentic Kalguksu (Korean knife cut noodle)! So much variety and generous portions. We arrived on a weekday evening and was seated within 10 minutes. I got the chicken Kalguksu. The food came relatively quickly as well, with rich flavorful broth, chewy noodles and tender pieces of chicken. Mine was not spicy by default but you can add some spices to it to your liking. Definitely recommend for a cooler or rainy day. read more

If you're a noodle lover like me, then you need to check this place out! Super cozy & homey restaurant. The service was amazing. I had to get their seafood soondubu kalguksu which was packed with lots of fresh seafood and soft tofu. The noodles were bouncy, and the broth was flavorful and addicting. This dish is perfect for a cold winter meal. And who goes to a Korean restaurant without ordering a Korean pancake?? The seafood pancake was crispy and had lots of toppings as well.

I really enjoyed the noodle soup. At first I thought the prices were a bit high, but I didn't realize how big the portions are. You will devour a bowl if you're hungry, but I honestly could have split a bowl and would have been happy (I had about 1/3 leftover and left feeling STUFFED). I'd come back to try more of their dishes. The broth was amazing. The noodles, which they're well-known for, were good, but because the broth is piping hot for such a long time (which is a plus), it overcooks the noodles after a bit. read more

Food first, thoughts after... Wow great spot for tradition korean kalguksu. The broth is delicious. I would say my highlight was the pajeon. The outer crust is so good because of the iron pan it is served on. The fish flakes on top make it so flavorful. Service was so good. They made sure we kept getting banchan without us having to ask. read more

Finally made it out ot this institution and so glad I did. Their Korean knifecut noodles are not the easiest thing to find outside of Murray Hill and in that way they're a bit of a cultural institution. Big space, easy to come in on a weeknight and get seated for a table of four and the service was very friendly. This place is perfect for when it's the winter and you need some knifecut noodles to help heal your soul. We got a variety of them of varying thicknesses, which one you'll like better is entirely preference. We got the dumplings and the okonomi which were solid, though I think the noodles is really where they shine. Unassuming place, made it onto this reddit list of authentic places people would eat seeking food from their own countires and as someone who grew up eating a fair amount of korean food I really liked it here. Hope they stick around for a long time! read more

We've been coming to this restaurant since before COVID, when they were at their previous location just a few storefronts down the block. It has become one of our regular spots whenever we're in Flushing. We stopped in tonight around 5:00 p.m., and it was already busy, which is always a good sign. We shared the seafood pancake, my husband ordered the steamed dumplings, and I had the soft tofu with long noodles and vegetables in a mild flavor. Everything was flavorful and satisfying as always. I forgot to take photos of the seafood pancake and dumplings before we started eating--they looked too good to wait! They also bring two complimentary small side dishes to start. I usually go straight for the kimchi, and the staff is always attentive, asking if we need more and happily bringing additional servings. The entire staff is kind, courteous, and attentive. This continues to be a reliable and enjoyable place for us, and we will definitely keep coming back. read more

The seafood pancake here is the best I've ever had in my life. Super thick and super crispy w lots of filling!!! Love the offering of hot soy and honey soy as well. The kalguksu is good but I think just not something I'm a super fan of def like it tho. It was pretty rich and clean tasting and especially with the pepper and salt added the broth was yummy. Noodles were soft and chewy without being soggy. The bibimguksu was lowkey a little too saucy and salty for me. I think it could've been watered down in a bit. Loved the lettuce in it tho. Feel like both noodles could've used more protein. Overall great ambiance and service. read more

Your entire party must be present for you to be seated. Service is good, be sure to use the red "call" buttons on the wall or table to call over the wait staff. Staff do a great job cleaning tables and condiments after a party leaves - I saw the diligence that the workers went through as I saw tables come and go. Food is worth coming back for! Great portion, great broth, and the sujebi is tasty. If you don't eat much then 2 people may be able to share one bowl. Price ranges about $20-26 per bowl. Seafood pancake is tasty. I would order this again as well. Overall a great dining experience, they will usually have a table available for a party of 4 at any given time. If you're a large party you may want to call ahead and give them a heads up. read more

Friends had recommended this place for great broths and seafood pancake. Both are true! This place is great for a cold day. Parking is alright and you can miss the restaurant if you aren't really looking for it. Staff greets you right away and you get a seat. Restaurant is mid sized and great ambiance with romantic soft lighting, oak tones and a contemporary, modern design. Utensils appear to be on the wood planks behind or on your side so it's convenient for self-service. Ordered a variety of foods with friends to share and what a feast we had. We had a few noodle soups with the two noodle options and my favorite was the beef bulgogi, mild spice. What a bomb of flavors! Really good and recommend a soup with beef bulgogi. The seafood pancake with bits of bacon in it was a solid winner. Giant pizza-like style with an abundant of ingredients. It's quite filling and a great shareable dish. Would definitely order again. Fried dumpling - I believe this was vegetable filling but you can pass on this. Wasn't much 'wow' factor for me but kids loved it. Delicious broths. Flavorful food without a heavy hand in salt. Chockful of generous ingredients in the seafood pancake. Reasonable prices. Along with good company. What more can you ask for these days? Great spot for dining with family and friends. Will definitely be back! read more

Lived up to its hype. Came by on a Friday night. Very busy but seated quickly! Nice ambience. Courteous service. Ordered the seafood pancake, spicy cold noodle and seafood Kalguksu. Seafood pancake is a bit on the expensive side ($26) but good portion and quality - crispy on the outside with good amount of seafood. The spicy cold noodle are delicious. The seafood (mussels and shrimps) for the seafood kalguksu are underwhelming but the noodles themselves and broth are great. Overall, had a really good experience. read more

This spot is perfect for the colder, nippier season since they're known for their comforting bowls of noodle soup. Personally I prefer their sujebi (wide noodles) over the kalguksu (long noodles). I find them chewier and more enjoyable to eat. The seafood pancake has also consistently been one of the best I've had -- airy, loaded and somehow still very crispy. They also have the option of honey soy and hot soy to pair with your food, which I thought was different from most places. I've come here before they expanded and renovated into a bigger store and they've maintained their integrity ever since. Quality of food has been pretty good and consistent, even as they serve on a larger scale. Can't say the same about the service -- I have noticed the staff has been a bit more snappy the past few times I've came, especially when there's a queue. They were def more welcoming when they were a mom-and-pop shop. Wouldn't say this is the place to dillydally and I wouldn't advise taking too long to order. The food itself is still more than enough to make you come back! read more

this might just be my new favorite korean restaurant in new york city. I've been wanting to come out here for a while but it's a little far... but the trek is VERY well worth it. We ordered 3 dishes for the two of us since we wanted to try everything - and had plenty of leftovers!! The banchan they gave was so fresh and crunchy, we had so many plates as well. here's everything we ordered: - seafood pajeon (5/5): I honestly have no idea how they made this pancake so crispy yet not feel too oily. it's also PACKED with chives and seafood, and was soft without being overly doughy - bulgogi soondubu kalguksu (5/5): texture of the noodles was perfect. the broth was warm and comforting yet light, and the bulgogi was some of the most flavorful I ever had! - bibim guksu (5/5): my least favorite of the 3 but still a 5/5. this dish is really light and the noodles are so thin and chewy, and soak up the sauce so well. Great for the summer, and super refreshing Service is really fast! read more

Pros: - seated very quickly - love the aesthetic, very simple, clean, and organized - I've been multiple times and tastes just as good every time - very flavorful soup and the noodle texture is always perfect, the dumplings and seafood pancake are crispy but not too hard - we always ask for refills on their banchan Con: - none for me Comments: - went at around 3:20PM on a Friday, not as busy as I've usually seen it, lots of pick-up and take out orders - music was at a decent volume, not too low or too loud - maybe tmi, but the restroom decor is soooo cozy, I couldn't help but take a photo of it. The restroom was clean and smelled nice - final verdict, maybe I'm biased but I definitely recommend this place read more

I had really high hopes after seeing great reviews and lovely ambiance, but the food fell flat. Daesung is really nicely decorated and set up for a mere noodle shop. The parking in the area is a nightmare, but that's most places in Flushing. I ordered the soft tofu kalguksu (long noodles) after perusing the menu and being shocked at most of these dishes being $20 despite just being noodles and broth with cheap toppings. The tofu was nice, but the noodles are so flavorless. They are cooked well for being these thick "knife cut" noodles. No clumpy undercooked noodles anywhere. Unfortunately, the noodles taste so underseasoned and flavorless. In a dish like this, if the noodles aren't good, it's really hard to make up with the rest of the dish. The broth also didn't have a particular umami flavor. The kimchi and pickle that comes out is also not the style I prefer. The kimchi is bitter and a little gamey/fishy tasting because the dried pepper flakes dominate the flavor with not much of garlic or ginger to balance it out. Pickle was lackluster. I tried a little bit of my brother's chicken kalguksu (broth flavorless, chicken meat dry). I think if the noodle dough flavoring is corrected, there's nothing fundamentally wrong with Daesung. It's just not a style and combination of flavor that I like in kalguksu. I also think it's severely overpriced. Most of the dishes did not have ingredients that warrant high prices-- it's mostly reliant on flour, water, and smattering of cheap vegetables. The pajeon prices are highway robbery, in my opinion. You may be paying for the ambiance and service, which is fair. But if you asked me if the price fits the quality of food, I must say it does not. read more

Service: 4.3/5 Food: 4.5/5 Price: $$$ ($30-50) Very efficiently run + authentically Korean with the service call button. Quite a good amount of tables. Equally popular among couples, families + friend groups. Not really good for solo diners, since you'll want to split apps in addition to your own bowl of noodles. Menu is pretty straight forward- 1) noodles vs. rice or both, 2) type of protein, 3) spicy vs. not spicy. I personally prefer the wide noodles (more like rough chunks) bc slurping is messy. *would recommend What I Ordered: - Haemul Pajeon*: SO CRISPY, not too greasy, abundant seafood which justifies the price - Eomuk Kalguksu (fish cake long noodles): variety of fish cakes, a mild broth, good chew on the long noodles - Dak Ulken Sujebi (spicy chicken wide noodles): quite spicy (for a weakling), good amount of chicken read more

Daesung Korean Noodle is definitely going into our regular dining rotation when we are in the area - this place is legit! The restaurant is known for their kalguksu, and anything you order, it won't disappoint! We came here for an earlier lunch, and we ordered: +the Haemul Pajeon - aka, P3 on the menu; seafood pancake that is thick, super crispy, and just well-made; this was one of those rare instances in us actually finishing the whole thing, with no leftovers to take home! +the Bulgogi Soondubu Kalguksu - aka, #TK6 on the menu; you can also request the spiciness level, in which we went for the 'regular'; the noodles were al dente, and there were plenty of marinated bulgogi and chunks of soft tofu; the broth was extremely hearty and delicious, with a nice kick! I was also obsessed with their geotjeori, aka fresh kimchi - it was just wonderfully prepared, spicy, and sooo sooo sooo good!!! I literally could eat a whole jar of this with rice and would be perfectly content! The staff is also great with replenishing it, and always shared a kind reminder to always ask for refills - how awesome is that?! Note that there are honey and spicy soy sauce bottles available, so you could use those to flavor up your broth (which is not necessary) or use them as a dipping option for your pancakes - we really liked the spicy soy one! Staff are friendly and welcoming, and very attentive. Such a delicious place - try them out! +geotjeori! +Bulgogi Soondubu Kalguksu +Haemul Pajeon +friendly staff & service read more

In ancient times, Korea was called the masters of fermentation. Daesung proves that this is the case with their signature kimchi, which is an umami bomb packed with seafood flavor coating a refreshing cabbage. If you don't get multiple servings of this, you've wasted your time. It goes with the Kalguksu and it goes with the harmful pajun. However, I would recommend getting the Kalguksu and sujebi with some meat in it. The noodles are cooked well, but the brother when plain can be a bit bland. This isn't a big issue, but definitely good advice! Overall, this restaurant has many strong points and unique flavors I don't find often in most Korean restaurants. I'd highly recommend a visit for the sujebi or Kalguksu, the harmful pajun, and especially the kimchi! It's so good that Daesung only gives out 2 banchan, because they're that confident. read more

DaeSung is one of the restaurants that I regularly frequent. It's a casual eatery known for their knife cut noodles, and they're seriously one of the best. They have about several various types, and you can't go wrong with any of them. Just order whatever protein you're in the mood for. I personally go between chicken, seafood and fish cake. They have knife cut noodles and sujebi which is hand pulled dough (listed as "wide noodles" on their menu.) But truly,the absolute best thing on the menu is their seafood pancake. They're fried on cast iron pans, which gets them very crispy, and they're very generous with the seafood. Dip into either the spicy or honey soy sauce. (They're actually better the next day if you air fry them.) The side dishes are minimal, which is standard for a Korean noodle shop. The kimchi is delicious and pairs very well with the noodles. They also give pickled thinly sliced apples, which are crispy and tangy and a little sweet. The service is quick and efficient. As I write this review, I'm craving it again! read more

Walked in on a friday evening and youre immediately transported to what feels like a mom/pop store. The interior is clean but the food is so "comfort and homey" feeling. The servings are also humongous. Def come to eat with friends and order more. The dish we got soaked up alll the soup by the time we got to the bottom so be mindful of that. Service was great, they constantly checked in to see what we needed. read more

I dream about the seafood pancake regularly. Daesung is my go to restaurant in the area! Service: Friendly and quick! I feel very welcome whenever I come in. As soon as you sit, they quickly start you off with complimentary kimchi. Ambiance: clean, modern, a really nice place to sit. You can sit 4 people at most tables and there's a big table for bigger parties in the back. Food: delicious and homey - seafood pancake (5/5) : crispy and full of seafood. The spicy honey soy sauce is a perfect combo with it. It's quite big and it's about $25 dollars. - seafood long noodle soup (4.5/5): satisfying and perfect for a colder day. Clean soup. - cold noodle soup (4/5): refreshing on a hot day, the sesame broth is thick and pairs well with the thin buckwheat noodles and julienned cucumber. I think the hardboiled egg was more cooked than I would like though. - tofu stew (4/5) standard but good. Comes with rice and lots of ingredients inside. - complimentary side dishes! Fish cake, radish kimchi, broccoli, etc. I love daesung--I cannot recommend this place enough read more

3/5 Extra mild Haemul Soondubu Kalguksu $18.99- Noddles are very soft & chewy. They harden fast so I recommend downing asap. Since the food was too hot, we couldn't eat it fast enough, so the noodles hardened. I recommend getting at least mild, since extra mild has like no spice. They have 6 spice levels: plain, extra mild, mild, regular, spicy, extra spicy. The broth was a bit bland since I got extra mild. It tasted like top ramen seasoning. I think I wuda been able to give it at least 4 stars if I'd gotten mild. Def down to go again & get mild. Banchan: 4/5 kimchi: pretty fresh, crispy, so spicy 3/5 not sure if the other banchan was radish or pear or something else cuz it had a seedy texture & tasted kinda strange Spicy soy sauce- didn't know this existed but it was like so much spicier than the kimchi read more

Everything here was just so delightful and fresh and so pleasing to the senses. My family came in as a party of 5 on Friday night at 8pm, and there was no wait. I don't think I could say anything bad about any of the food here. The seafood pancake was huge and so crispy and came out hot and steaming. It was packed to the brim with all different types of seafood which helped to make it worth the $26. My fishcake kalguksu had so many different types of fishcakes, all of which I loved, and they absorbed the flavor of the broth which made them even more delicious. I ordered the soup mild, and it was definitely still spicy, but not unbearable (I'd say I have a pretty low spice tolerance, but I enjoy a spicy thing every now and again). The location is a bit out of the way from Main Street, but I'd love to come again! read more

The flavor is also a little on the bland side. The pancake is much better than the noodles here despite the name. The seafood bacon pancake is a must get! read more

Cuisine: 9 Service: 8 Decor: 7 Value: 9 Overall: 9 It's hard not to love this restaurant that's been serving Korean comfort food since 1983. My first visit was probably sometime back in the late 1990's at through an introduction from my Korean friends. I will always recall that first bite of their Pajun and Oko Pajun. It just hit differently. Imho, it's simply the best Korean pancakes anywhere. After all these years, I still come here whenever I crave one of their fabulous pancakes. The crispy bottom is always perfectly cooked. The ingredients are always easy to decipher and contributes to the overall deliciousness of the dish. My personal favorite is Seafood Pancake or Seafood Oko Pancake. They also serve some great Kalguksu (long noodle), which comes with some yummy broth like chicken, seafood, fishcake, or short neck clam. You can have them spicy or not. The noodles are smooth with a nice chew. Very enjoyable on a cold day. On my recent visit, we also had the Bibim Man Du (fried dumplings & veggies mixed with sweet & spicy sauce), which was an excellent starter. With that said, our Bulgogi Soondubu, though smooth and tender, lacked a bit of flavor. I will note that it may have been better if we had gotten it medium instead of mild to accommodate my dining group. Ultimately, I am here for the Pajun/Oko Pajun and the variety of Kalguksu. Therefore, my rating is based on those dishes more than anything else. I also feel that prices are fantastic because I always leave happily stuffed for a fraction of what I would spend elsewhere. I truly hope they are around for another forty years for me to enjoy. read more

Stumbled into Daesung Korean Noodle Restaurant on a whim, and walked out with a new contender for my go-to comfort food in Queens. First, let's talk about the seafood pancake (haemul pajeon) -- golden, crisp-edged perfection with just the right amount of chew. It's not greasy, which is a major win, and the seafood is generous: plump shrimp, squid, and even bits of clam that make each bite feel like you're dining seaside in Busan. Pro tip: dip it in the house soy-vinegar sauce for a savory-sour punch that cuts the richness beautifully. Now the spicy hand-sliced noodle soup (kalguksu) -- this is where Daesung shows off. The broth has real depth: it's spicy, but not just heat for the sake of heat. There's a rich seafood umami backbone that clings to the knife-cut noodles, which are chewy and rustic in the best way. Each spoonful warms you to your core, and the portion is generous enough to turn lunch into leftovers (if you have that kind of willpower -- I didn't). The only downside? The banchan (side dishes) are limited -- just kimchi and pickled radish during my visit. While both were solid (the kimchi has a nice funk and bite), I did miss the variety you often get at other Korean spots. That said, the main dishes are so strong they hold their own without the extras. Service is fast and no-nonsense, but friendly. The space itself is clean, casual, and bustling -- feels like a true neighborhood gem rather than something polished for Instagram. read more
