It was actually refreshing to eat at a Korean place that doesn't have bibimbap and kimchi jjigae on the menu. They focus on potatoes and soups with bone broth, and all of that is clearly made with care. Portions were smaller and yes pricier, but I felt that the quality was there which I appreciate. Plus the husband and wife couple seem really kind and hardworking.

A little family restaurant and to me the potato side tastes just like how "grandma" makes it. Meaning it has a very homemade taste and feel. Delicious! Looking back at the pictures posted here from years ago and they really reduced the size of the ban chan though from 8-9 down to 2. Bring those back!

It seems like they only really have two people on staff, so be patient! The staff is very nice and try their best. But especially if three or more tables are filled - food will take awhile to arrive. The menu has a lot of standard Korean fare - Korean pancakes, bibimbops, noodle soups (black bean noodles, jjampong, kalguksu) and stews (galbi tang, bulgogi stew). The seafood pancake has more veggies and seafood than pancake. I've had the galbi tang twice, which is also hearty and packed with a lot of goodies. Worth a trip if you happen to be wandering around the Tenafly area. We will likely be back.

And they did not disappoint - seafood pancake 5/5: amazingly crispy and packed with seafood so every bite you either get a octopus or shrimp which is delicious!! - brisket jjamppong 4.5/5: something different never had brisket style but the broth was great and garlicky. Noodles was also cooked perfectly - galbi tang 4/5: had better, the broth was did not hit the umami and seemed like it still had some impurities.

The dining space looked nice, there were some decorations for the festive season as well. The menu had starters, side dishes, noodles, and of course the K-BBQ, both individual and sets. We ordered a first set that came with 5 different meats including pork belly, prime ribs and steaks. The meat tasted good and they were cooked fine in the grill by the staff member. We also had free side items like cucumber, kimchi, macaroni, mixed greens and rice. We ordered few additional items like edamame, seafood pancake, beef dumplings and japchae. Everyone loved the thin noodles of japchae. Edamame and dumplings were fine. I didn't like the pancake as it had a very dense and bland tasting dough. Overall our dining experience was decent.

You get miso soup with your lunch special and the hwe dub bab is very similar to "poke" and bibimbap but everything is more deconstructed (rice on the side, sauce on the side). The fish is all on a bed of veg and looks very bibimbap-like, with a twist (raw seafood). You get a really good portion of different sashimi. We also tried the Usuzukuri appetizer, which is Fluke sashimi with special sauce and roe. Husband got the rolls. Super duper reasonably priced and tastes fresh! The restaurant is owned by a cute Korean couple. Felt very homey. We went back to order food for dinner for the fam. Unagi-don is yummers - the eel and unagi sauce is great. Wish there was more sauce to soak the rice underneath cuz that stuff is addicting. The combo platter is so beautifully put together. Was a huge hit with the family!

Probably one of the best (in my opinion) ones around thats not from a known fast food place. Just the right amount of tang and spice. The flavor wasn't overwhelming with a crunchy exterior to the chicken. Fries were on point. The toast was also amazing. So much in it, my wife had a hard time finishing it. Very flavorful as well. We'll definitely be back to try other things. 100% worth it and i definitely would recommend trying the chicken sandwich.

Once your order is ready your number is called and you pick up your tray of food. There is signage in the restaurant indicating that they are self-serve and that you shouldn't tip. My girlfriend and I ordered beef soup and a seafood pancake. The food was prepared fairly quickly and they called our number to pick up the food from the counter. The seafood pancake was pretty good. Very flavorful but I felt like it was thicker and more doughy than I prefer. I would probably skip this for the next visit. The beef soup was delicious as well. It was just the right temperature and it was salty and savory enough without being overwhelming. We went on a particularly cold day so the hot soup really hit the spot. The pieces of beef in the soup were super tender too. Continuing the self-service theme there was a water dispenser and there was even a dispenser of broth at the pick up counter. I liked that broth even more than the broth in the beef soup. I slurped up several cups of it. I'd certainly come back.

Formerly known as Sambong as recently as 8-9 months ago when they first opened, menu-wise they've stayed fairly consistent, specializing in naengmyun (cold noodles in a chilled broth), with some stews and bbq grilled items too. On a cold winter Sunday afternoon we placed our orders around 12:40 and it was ready for pick up at 1:15pm. We ordered: - 물냉면 + 목살구이 Mul Naengmyun Cold Noodle + Pork Neck BBQ $24.99: the thin noodles are super bouncy and chewy, excellent take on a summer classic! Soup and toppings hit the spot, a couple slices of beef and Asian pear, thinly slice cucumbers and pickled radish, plus half an egg. The extra side of bbq pork cheek was marinated and grilled to tender perfection. - 소고기 국밥 Spicy Guk Bap $17.99: lightly spicy beef broth with bean sprouts, scallions, and pieces of beef, served over rice. Warm and hearty Korean comfort food on a cold day. - 사골우거지된창국 Sagol Ugeoji Doenjang Guk with Rice $18.99: this beef bone broth is seasoned with fermented bean paste, a flavor somewhat similar to miso with plenty of rehydrated dried napa cabbage. A rich flavor and great over the white rice that came with it. - 돈까스 Donkatsu $19.99 and LA갈비 LA Galbi BBQ $36.99: my friends ordered these items to share with their kids. I didn't try them though they appeared to enjoy. - banchan (side dishes): about 5 or 6 small containers came with the entrees, consisting of regular napa kimchi, a couple different radish kimchis, fish cakes. The chilled kimchi was fermented goodness and went well with the hot broths, soup and rice. Would recommend!

We most recently came in on a Friday night with a 6 pm reservation. Yes, we had to flag down one of the harried but cheerful women working here to place our order. But look around - there's not a white tablecloth in sight. You may have to catch someone's eye, and there's nothing wrong with that. By 6:15 pm, half of our order was on the table, and we were gleefully chomping on fried dumplings and pillowy buns. The small but clean and modern space was packed - packed with people, but also with so much happiness. Almost everyone was smiling, laughing, and joking as they tucked into this feel-good array of comfort classics. Jajangmyun, jjampong, khan poong, gochu japchae... all of these traditional dishes sang. Even a simple plate of sauteed vegetables was delicious. And everything spent just seconds between being finished in the kitchen and sitting in front of us. Is it cheap? No, nor should it be. The ingredients are of the freshest, including the seafood. The cooking couldn't be better. And this is no grimy hole in the wall. If it were a French bistro, you'd have no problem with the prices. So pay these fine folks what they deserve, and enjoy.
