Unfortunately I did not take my phone to provide evidence of the abundance of food that is paid for. Great fast service and absolutely delicious food! It's an unassuming place and location, but what this cafe holds are amazing cooks! read more

Great breakfast spot! The restroom situation is a little weird having to go outside, but the service and food are great!

Cozy diner serving generous portions! I took my mom here for lunch on a Sunday. Most of the tables were occupied but we were able to get a seat at a table near the bar. We were given menus right after being seated and the waitress came back a few minutes later. I'd say service was friendly and the food came out pretty fast. This is what we ordered: * Organic beet salad with ranch dressing, $13 - delicious and refreshing salad with romaine, sliced beets, avocado chunks, grape tomatoes, nuts, sliced red onions, and feta cheese. I chose ranch and thought it paired well with the salad. * Fish and chips, $16.95 - 5 crispy battered cod (tasted like cod to me) pieces with plenty of French fries and a side of tartar sauce and lemon wedges. My mom liked how the batter was thin and crispy. The fish pieces were a little smaller than my hands. * Very berry waffle, $15.95 - soft waffle with blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries dusted with powdered sugar and came with syrup on the side. The berries were sweet and the waffle was very tasty with syrup on top. * Sweet potato fries, $5.95 - crispy outside and soft inside. I love sweet potato fries and theirs were delicious. I ate it with ketchup, ranch, hot sauce, and tartar sauce. The portions were pretty big so my mom and I split everything. We ended up taking some fries home. The reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because I found a hair in one of the containers of ranch that came with the salad, I thought the fries tasted a bit stale and dry when they were cold, and I wish the waffle came with butter and wish it was a little more crispy. Overall, I did enjoy my lunch here and my mom and I would come back! I'd try one of the omelettes next time. read more

Very spacious and cozy American brunch diner located in Concord right near Costco. They offer various breakfast dishes served all day as well as a lunch menu. I was craving a croissant breakfast sandwich so I got the egg melt sandwich. This comes with a side of your choice - hashbrowns or fruit. I got a bowl of fruit - which was a pretty good size and the fruit tasted pretty fresh! The sandwich itself was a decent size as well with it leaving me pretty full. I highly suspect they use Costco croissants but I could be wrong lol. I wished the eggs were a little less dry but overall it was a good sandwich. We got our food within a reasonable time and they did refill my coffee cup free of charge. Overall, a nice location to grab a classic average American diner meal. read more

Gangnam Cafe - American Near Me - Concord, California

Been here a couple of times, and this place hits the spot! After a Costco run, my stomach was making noises that could probably get me a record deal. Couldn't risk being hangry, so we stopped in for breakfast. The staff is super friendly and welcoming definitely a family run business, and I'm all for supporting local spots like this : ) Tried the chicken & waffles, and both were on point. The waffle was golden and crispy, and the chicken? Juicy, crispy, and packed with flavor. Sausage patty was solid, and the bacon was crispy, just how it should be. Next visit, I went for the chicken fried steak with hash browns, eggs, and rye toast. The steak was crispy, flavorful, and smothered in tasty gravy no complaints there! Wifey had the "mini" breakfast, but trust me, it wasn't mini lol. Plenty of food, including crispy bacon and perfect eggs. Open for breakfast and lunch, with prices that won't break the bank (but won't make you rich either lol). Definitely coming back to try more. If you're in the area and need a solid breakfast, Gangnam Cafe is the move! read more

I've been coming here for years when I have to wait for something in the area in the morning. They're always clean, friendly, and it's just a lighthearted atmosphere. I haven't been in awhile and got a Korean style burrito with bulgogo and rice, but had eggs. For $19ish I could only eat half, but it was really good. They have always been consistent throughout the years, and possibly have gotten friendlier and tastier food. Off Detroit street in a somewhat industrial area near Costco, and has their own parking lot.'m read more

My first time here. I read reviews about it. A little hard to get to even if you're in Concord. The streets here are weird. But you can find it, it's a quaint little place. I have been looking for the chicken fried steak the best chicken fried steak in the area and decided to try it here. I was fairly impressed. The gravy is probably the best grade I've had so far out of all the places I've tried and I like gravy and biscuits. The chicken fried steak itself was typical but it was pretty good here the way they prepared it. I definitely go back for it. The staff was nice and attentive made sure I had coffee which I appreciate. The potatoes were a little bit awkward compared to other places of the country potatoes. They were good however I wish I would have had some more onions this place uses green onions which is kind of unique I like green onions The breakfast itself was all right, and the toast was nice. Good value for what you pay for and a comfortable place to relax They have a special price menu for a light eaters read more

4 out of 5 stars Hidden Gem with Big Flavor Gangnam Café is one of those places you kind of stumble upon -- tucked away in Concord, small, cozy, and totally worth the visit. Inside, it's quaint and welcoming, with a menu that definitely leans eclectic (in the best way). We ordered the beef stew, which was hearty and full of flavor, and this sandwich (pictured in the review) -- wish I could remember the name, because it was ridiculously delicious. One of those meals where if you just read the ingredients, you'd be hesitant... but then you take a bite and suddenly question your entire taste bud history. The service was friendly and attentive, and the prices were totally fair -- especially for the quality and creativity of the food. If you're in the Concord area and want to try something a little different that actually works, definitely give this place a shot. It's the kind of spot that surprises you in all the right ways. read more

The restaurant was quiet and pretty empty when we stopped by for brunch on a Saturday. The service was great and efficient, the man who took our order and then served us throughout our meal was very nice. There was another Korean lady who helped us with our leftovers and she was super sweet and nice as well. The food was wonderful! I ordered the Good Friends pancakes, eggs, and sausages combination and for the amount of food I received, I felt like it was definitely worth the price. My husband ordered 2 blueberry pancakes, country potatoes, and some sliced avocado. The blueberry pancakes and country potatoes were delicious and worth the price too. The avocado was an add-on so it was pricier, at $3.95 for half an avocado sliced. It was really fresh though, so we didn't mind and enjoyed it. Would definitely come back again to try some of the other things that they have on their menu! Overall, the atmosphere of the place was very cozy and there were lots of pictures of their food on the walls. I think we can safely say that we found a new favorite brunch place. read more

While the food is pretty decent and give good portion and even slightly above average but the service is beyond slow and nonexistent for our table. No refill on water. Food was served on different time... The toast was served way after the breakfast platter was given and no utensil was given until food has arrived for quite a while, which is quite insane. Literally no service while the place was actually pretty slow and less than half occupied... read more

Great pit stop before or after Costco! Service is fast. Kids like the Mickey Mouse pancake with fruit. We didn't like how dirty the seats and walls were when we are sitting in the booths - this is because of our OCD with the kids while they're eating! There are clean restrooms outside to wash hands though, which is convenient! read more

Great place to gather and catch up with friends, or for a good breakfast. Pretty big room with plenty of tables for large and small groups. The coffee is really good and smooth.

GN Cafe is always dependable for a satisfying, freshly-prepared meal. We stopped in for lunch a couple of times over the past month and tried items we haven't had before. Their clam chowder is thick, creamy and full of clams and potatoes -- very impressive for a casual cafe. The grilled cheese sandwich filled my craving for a simple, nostalgic lunch. My son ordered an omelet with hash browns and toast. The omelet is as big as the plate and he ate every bit of it. I tried their waffle breakfast with eggs and bacon. Great tasting waffle! As always, the staff are friendly and extremely polite/kind. read more

We drive one hour from Sunnyvale to eat breakfast here. Food is SO FRESH!! My husband always orders the Garden omelet. He's a big eater and is constantly amazed at how big the omelets are. I ordered the fresh crab benedict today along with freshly squeezed orange juice. It was the best crab benedict I've ever had in my life (and I'm as old as dirt). We love the location. Easy to find just a few feet beyond Costco. Prices are reasonable and worth our drive. Service is always excellent and the people who work here couldn't be nicer! read more

I have visited this cafe on weekday mornings, so it was not as busy compared to the weekend brunch rush. Upon walking in, my friend and I were greeted by a friendly server. On my first visit, I ordered the Chicken Fried Steak plate. For my sides, I chose scrambled eggs, country potatoes, and sourdough toast. The Chicken Fried Steak had crispy breading and I loved how the country gravy contained bits of bacon. Also, I appreciate how they are generous with the amount of gravy! The country potatoes were very good and fluffy on the inside. My friend thought the Hot Link plate was okay, yet filling. On my last visit, I decided to order the Chicken Fried Steak for the second time since I previously enjoyed the dish. It was good, however, I noticed there were less potatoes this time and they were on the soggy side. Meanwhile, my friend enjoyed the Original Benedict which consists of Canadian bacon and mentioned how the hash browns were delicious. Despite the different quality of the potatoes, I was satisfied with everything else on my plate. Lastly, compared to other nearby brunch places, Gangnam Cafe's prices are reasonable for the big portions that they serve. read more

I'm a regular customer but don't usually take people here because it's in an industrial setting. However, I took a friend and got nothing but raves. She liked it so much she wanted to go for her birthday celebration. We were nine women and everyone loved their food and ended up with a second meal from leftovers. They ordered from every category and each person only said good things. The service was wonderful and friendly. We had requested a table outside and they accommodated us. Even the customers were friendly. read more

Been meaning to visit this place for a while and we finally made it. Down Detroit Ave from Costco, there's plenty of parking with both inside dining and outside covered dining space. We were greeted and seated immediately on Saturday at 10am. Service was fast and friendly throughout. We were able to order off the breakfast and lunch menus. The food was pretty good with interesting twists. The waffles were crispy and huge. Not buttermilk waffles, but still good. And the fresh berries on the Very Berry Waffle was plentiful and fresh. The eggs and sausage was filling and good. The English muffin was nicely toasted with a generous helping of butter. We were a bit mixed on our feelings for the croissant sandwich. While I liked the cucumber and tomato on the sandwich because it balanced out the richness of the croissant with some crunch and freshness, our teens thought the flavor combo was 'weird', so we just agreed to disagree. However we all agreed the side of fries needed salt, so we added some. The flavor combination of the Gangnam scramble was good. The spinach prevented the short rib from overwheming the dish. However, I did find the short rib to be a bit fatty and and chewy for my taste. The hashbrowns were excellent, well seasoned and crunchy. Overall a good meal and we look forward to returning and trying other dishes. read more

Went for breakfast this morning. Ordered the "good friends" with French toast without meat. Basic breakfast but tasty and hit the spot on a chilly morning. The price point was reasonable. Service was friendly. I walked over, but there was plenty of street parking. I also sat outside (I know it's cold). Really cute with poinsettias. I love drinking coffee in the brisk air. Reminds me of Paris. My waitress gave me a cup of coffee to go! Now, that's my kind of service. When I'm in the area, I will definitely return to GN Cafe. read more
