Very interesting mix of Korean/Chinese food. Not a fancy looking restaurant inside or out and if you don't speak Korean? You might feel out of place. Each plate is def enough for 4, think of it as family style dishes. The shrimp were big pieces in this sweet and sour sauce. The battered pork pieces were good but I couldn't understand the sauce it was in. I would def come back and try other dishes. Would I go out of my way to make a trip here? Eh. Worth a try if you're up for something different but nothing amazing. read more

Wanted to venture out for authentic Korean food, and this place did not disappoint. Came in late, an hour before closing, and was happily accommodated. Had the spicy sizzling octopus, Korean rice dish in a hot stone bowl, and the stir-fried beef (breaded). The dishes were amazing; however, I was not so thrilled with the beef dish since it tasted like chicken. Service was good and friendly, and the restaurant was clean. The best part of our meal was the octopus dish, $39 but worth it. read more

Korean Chinese food @ Closter, NJ We had an early dinner Friday. We were sitted right away without a reservation. The Gganpoong jumbo shrimps were fried well and spicy sweet sauce was tasted but sauces should have coated the shrimps more. The pork tangsooyook were fried well but did not like the taste of the sauce. The jjamppong soup tasted good but the green noodles were overcooked. The ganjjajang sauce tasted so so and noodles were also overcooked. The waitress never came by our table so we had to flag her down whenever we needed things. The interior was neat and clean. read more

Barely 30 minutes into lunch service, so we expected to see one or two groups of diners at most. Instead, we walked into a bustling room chockfull of people, some of whom had yet to order, apparently. There was one front-of-house staff literally hopping and running around the room taking and bringing out orders, so after what felt like 20 minutes, we were seated and so the 5-star experience began. - Jajang with green noodles: possibly one of the best we've had EVER. The smoky flavour of the onions, sleek, warm, tender noodles, and the odd zucchini and pork all made for a knockout bowl of jajang. 5/5 - Sweet and sour pork: tender chunky pork with light batter, sticky sauce with an apple curry tinge, and a colourful mix of veggies. My only wish is for a bit more of those crunchy fresh veggies. 4.5/5 The staff is forgiven for not checking on us once, and the place otherwise seemed to be run like a well-oiled machine. It seems also that you could pay at the register or have the staff bring three cheque to the table. We'd go back in a heartbeat. read more

The food is okay. Just average and nothing to write home about. We ordered jjamppong and the seafood iron plate jjajang. To our taste, jjamppong was spicy and salty. I thought the jjajang was on the sweet and greasy side, and while my brother agreed with me, he said he also caught a weird spicy flavor in his first bite. Radish kimchi was absolutely the worst with a weird petroleum? acetone? type of taste and scent. No one else ate it after my experience. We ordered delivery from here using Uber Eats because we wanted to take advantage of a deal and it was the only Korean Chinese that was available, but it's definitely not worth paying full price. If you have the time to spare, it's better to check out better options further south in Bergen County. read more

4% off your bill if you pay in cash. I enjoyed the fried dumplings as an appetizer. Everything tastes better fried and this was perfectly crunchy and airy. The stir fried vegetables with tofu, while ordinary, was still better than my expectations. I'm a fan of tofu and this one is fried and goes with the theme that anything fried is good. Onto the entrees and we got more fried things. I e ordered kkanpungi and I had better elsewhere. The sauce flavor was a tad too sweet. Jjangmyeon with the green noodles was good but I would give the edge to the brisket jampong. read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch. Restaurant was clean and our entrees were solid. Banchan was disappointing. Usually, it's fun to have a larger variety. They only gave radish and onions with a dip, kimchi and broccoli with some gochujang. The service was also a bit uneven. The hostess was very friendly. The gentleman taking our order was tolerable and we never got the ice water we requested. They did provide hot barley tea which they just bring out, never asking if we had a preference. It's definitely a neighborhood spot and ok for a quick meal. Solid but nothing special. read more

Great Northern Jersey alternative to going down to Fort Lee or Pal Park. The jjambbong broth is rich and warmed my soul with its seafood flavor. The samseon jjambbong came with a large whole shrimp, some smaller peeled shrimps, crab legs, mussels, squid, and a palm-sized baby octopus! We also ordered the tangsooyook and the ganjjajang noodles. The ganjjajang was rich and deeply savory. The portions are here hearty and large. We came in on a Sunday evening around 5pm and we did wait quite a while for our noodle dishes, but the restaurant was full and they had plenty of people in and out for take out orders as well. Solid spot for Korean-Chinese fare. read more

consistently good food. Great lunch menu. very good mapo tofu. Spicy noodles seafood soups.

First time we ordered to go from Ewha Won and the kids absolutely loved it! Normally we eat at the restaurant but we just had our first grandbaby and we decided best to eat at home for awhile and the food held up to reheating! read more

I LOVE this restaurant! Great ambiance, amazing staff and delicious food. They have an diverse flare of Korean inspired Chinese dishes and what a great combination all of their dishes are. This time I ordered their Spicy shrimp with stir fried vegetables, which also came with a side of soup. I will say, the dish traditionally comes with peanuts but since I am allergic, they customized my order. The shrimp were a great size and the flavors of the dish had me wanting more! A little on the spicy side so next time I know to ask for less or no spice. Overall, amazing restaurant! read more

Looove their jjajangmyun. They're always generous with the portions and everything is so tasty. It's hard to find Korean-Chinese restaurants with jjajangmyun and jjamppong you get in Korea (iykyk) but this is one of the very few places in Bergen that I approve of, personally! read more

Place has changed from 5 years ago. Still good. On the pricier side. Service was good this last time time. The time before the servers were very curt, which I guess is expected for the metro area. Much friendlier and timely service. The food Jjajangmyun, Kkampungi, Tangsuyuk were all very good. Ambiance has a small Korean restaurant feel to it. read more

Overall, I'm going to say... no but okay? The jajangmyun is definitely NOT the best here. There was almost a burnt flavor for the fried jajangmyun... it was weird lol. The japjae bab is good if you want something less oily, but still, of course nothing is healthy here. The one with spicy peppers is okay but there is not enough protein at all; probably like three pieces of small beef. I was not happy. The tansuyook is meh; almost had a heart attack watching my sister drink the sugar sauce. The jampong is better than jajangmyun and you will not find any healthier options here. Price is ok, but I would not come back at all unless I was forced to. Side story: I was in the bathroom and the lights turned off and I was just in the dark for a while rip read more

I was so excited to try Korean style Chinese food! My friends ordered several dishes to try! The was super spicy. My friends said it was abnormally spicy and they also felt pain while eating it . We also got a seafood soup which was delicious and which is like a pineapple chicken and sweet which we really needed to balance the spicy black noodles! read more

Do not recommend jjajangmyun or jjambbong. Service is also very slow, have to ask many times for water or check.

I had lunch here with my mom recently. We were very disappointed and left the restaurant upset. The jjajangmyun (black bean noodles), jjampong (seafood noodle), and tangsooyook were all terrible. Never have I had such bad tasting food. It wasn't even cheap and we just felt full and dissatisfied with our experience here. The noodles were not hot just warm and there were only onions in the jjampong broth, not even seafood. The tangsooyook that was drenched in sauce was soggy. Overall, this is literally one of the worst dining experiences I had in a while and won't be returning. read more

I have never had freshly made jjajangmyeon, only the instant variety, but I've seen so many videos online and TV shows that have glorified this noodle dish to celebrity status. I've had the original inspiration, the Chinese zhajiangmian, which is fundamentally different from the Korean-Chinese jjajangmyeon, and thus doesn't count! I told Mikaela of my plight and she took me here to try it for myself. For good measure, we also ordered tangsuyuk, sweet & sour crispy pork, which came with the eponymous sweet and sour sauce in a separate dish, allowing us to control how the crispy pork would be sauced. We opted to pour the sauce over some of the pork, and then allow the rest to be dipped to our delight. Our jjajangmyeon came and was big! Our noodles were green which is super cool! It was a lot of food between the two of us, and I could barely finish my jjajangmyeon. We took the tangsuyuk to go but the lady suggested we not pour sauce over it because it would get too soggy by the time we got home. No sauce. I was satisfied knowing I got to try non-instant jjajangmyeon. The flavor was nice, nothing too extreme, though it got a bit much trying to finish it all. I kind of wished there was a little extra kick (I don't know what kind of kick) but that's also not jjajangmyeon. I was still satisfied! Servers were all nice and service was quick! read more

Ordered the jjajangmyeon, jjamppong, and tangsooyuk again as takeout. Still a fan of the green noodles here are green noodle. The tangsooyuk sauce tasted funny and think they added cinnamon, which I really didn't like. Upped their rating since the jjajangmyeon and jjamppong were still both good and would definitely order from their again. read more

My hubby and I popped in today for lunch. It was crowded. I guess families come here after church I'm a sundays or it's just a busy place overall. Perfect spot for Thai rainy, chilly, gloomy day. We ordered steamed dumplings (taste was ok but consistency was way too soft and hard to even grab) go for the pan fried. The seafood soup was very tasty and had lots of veggies. Seafood choices were just OK. Octopus, tinies shrimp I've event seen and a Few mussels. We also shared the spicy fried chicken. Crunchy, well cooked and seasoned and thick saucE. Severed with rice. Large portion and well priced for its size. Overall we had. A nice experience. We're attended to quickly, served quickly and food was pretty good. Will return. read more

Got DoorDash from Ewha Won for lunch today and I was happy with the food. We ordered a Chili Jajang Myeon. Jabchae Rice with Chili, and a Samsun Ul Myeon. I particularly liked the Jajang Myeon and Samsun Ul Myeon. I appreciate the way the food was packed because they separated the noodles from the fillings, which allowed the noodles to retain its texture and not become soggy. Everything tasted good and fresh. Portion sizes are generous and the prices are reasonable. Will definitely return and try some of their other offerings next time. read more

This place is a Korean Chinese food spot. To me it's Korean food. To my Gf its Chinese food. What this place does well is a big o plate of sweet and sour pork or beef and the bowls of black bean pasta. The portions are huge. The pasta are green I'm not sure what makes it green but it doesn't taste any different from other Asian noodles (bland). My gf always recommend the black bean sauce 'fried'. The black sauce is very mild and heating it up in oil makes it more flavorful. To me it tastes the same with extra calories. But, my gf always order the spicy red seafood soup. It has the dried red chilis and the small fresh green peppers that wakes me up at 4am for emergency 10 yard dash. The combo of sweet sour pork, spicy seafood soup , and black pasta is one of the best dinner I've shared with my gf and her family. Be prepared for a long wait for your food to come out on busy nights read more

Family has been coming here for years for jjajjangmyun and jjambbong, definitely one of the best ones in the area. Since reopening during covid, they have outdoor dining with about 6-7 tables, well spaced out. However gets real windy outside because of the area between the buildings. The inside is also well spaced out between the different dining tables. Black Bean Paste Noodles Jjajjangmyun My dad always gets the one with seafood and where the black bean sauce comes out separate from the noodles. "Gan" jjajjang. The normal black bean paste noodles usually just come with onions and pieces of beef with the sauce. Although it's $2 more expensive, I would say to try it if you can, it has a lot more flavor. They didn't have it when I recently went because they ran out but definitely would recommend if they do have! Also you can get different sizes if you want Jjambbong This is a spicy soup base with noodles and lots of seafood. The regular one has a decent amount of seafood so never felt the need to order the one with extra seafood. It's a nice complement to the black bean paste noodles Pork Tang Sooyook Pick this if you're looking for an appetizer before your noodle dishes. You can also get it as beef instead of pork if you prefer. It's nice and crispy but make sure to ask for the sauce on the side so they don't get soggy and if you have leftovers you can take them home without them falling apart because of the sogginess. I would say the serving size they give is good for about 4-5 people! read more

The server lady was so unkind and food was not special. Still it is kind of pricey compared to other similar restaurants.

This Korean spot is a cool little spot. The service is fast but I don't they are used to Americans dining here. Almost everyone is Korean and it's hard to communicate in English . The food was good but the pork fried rice had no actual pork in it. The tea is a bit tasteless and the dumplings could use a but more flavor. Not the best spot but doable if you are you to trying new things. read more

I visited sunday lunch. There were so many customer and long line. We order four dishes with one main dish(Tang su yuk). Taste was still good but the thing was customer care. After we order foods, they miss out two dishes. They didn't bring the food(jjampong). And we asked for that, server said we miss it. Finally we cancel it and go out. I totally understand there were so many guests and long lines. But if the server tell me 'sorry about it' or something, I felt better. Authentic Korean chinese restaurant. Green noodle is something special. jajang myun is so yummy! BYOB place make me more happy. read more

Never had spicy Jajangmyeon...it was sooo good! The place getS pack, but it rotate fast and well worth the wait. Reminder, most of the older server really don't speak English well, so be patients...Cheers! read more

So let me be as honest as possible.... This restaurant has me perplexed.... The food I tried see pictures was 3.5-4/5. The dumplings 2.5/5 The pork fried rice with black bean 5/5 (very little pork). The green tea noodles with spicy black bean 4/5 We ordered the sweet and sour pork but there were hairs in the plate so we returned it. Yet I do give props this restaurant has the cleanest bathroom for a chinese restaurant ive ever seen even if its packed and only one bathroom read more

The front lady has massive attitude for no reason. If you don't want to work, don't work. Why are you giving paying customers attitude? I would never recommend here. Food sucks, attitude sucks, vibe sucks. The people who work there are bitchy. Go spend ur money on somewhere else. . . read more

I know many people like the restaurant. I'm just not one of them. To me, the taste is not authentic Korean Chinese food. Not sure what the taste is but may be too much nut powder. my friend's kid had an anaphylactic reaction after eating their noodle due to the nut allergy. read more

I HIGHLY recommend the seafood skillet black bean noodle dish (pictured). The menu says it serves 2 people, but I think it could probably feed 3-4. I also really love the green noodles they use. The only reason I give it a 4 is that their prices are a lot higher than other restaurants that serve the same dishes. read more

It's decent food! It has way too much MSG and you will fall asleep but most people go here anyways! It hits the spot.

Disappointing service, waited over 15 Minutes for someone to come take our order. No body came. Service had no problem helping others that came after us. The couple that was sat down after us got immediate service and food was there in a fraction of the time we waited. read more

There is something about this place. I always walked out of this place with unpleasant experiences. Most of time, waitress or servers are either awfully rude or not attentive. Even today, they was a discrepancy on my check and without any apology, his only response was " oh I didn't ring your check... do you want me to avoid your credit card transaction?" I just walked out. No needed to waste my time for small discrepancy. read more

Came rolling deep with like 30 heads, we were seated within a minute in their back private area. Had the jjambbong which was mediocre, nothing outstanding. Also had the tangsuyook which was also mediocre. Everything did taste good but nothing to rave about. I'd come by here if im in the area craving some korean food just because it looks like the place koreans come for their fix. Food - 7/10 Service - 8/10 Price 9/10 read more

Just rude. And food is not worth to try(based on my previous experiences) We (two) even didn't get a chance to be seated, because they prefer large groups than two for dinner time. After a table opened up we tried to sit but the waiter told us someone had reserved the table, even though when we came they did not offer us to be on a waitlist. read more
