Even though I live in Seattle, I will travel back up to Lynnwood with family and friends to eat here again and again. Everything was perfect.

My friends and I ended up in Lynwood and we were like, why not get some Korean food while we are…read morehere!? So my friend did some research and we came to WuJu. There were only one other group when we came in around lunch time on a Sunday. It looks like it gets crowded in the evening so it was a surprise to find the place so empty, but we didn't mind. The lady who was serving us was very friendly and came back a bunch of times to ask if we need more tea. We were there way longer than how much we spend time at typical BBQ place, but she didn't seem to mind, which was nice. We had the beef combo, cold noodles, and squid and veggie stir fry, and that was way more than we needed. We thought the combo comes with only two bowls of rice but they added another one, seeing that we are party of three. That was nice. Banchan was pretty good and I kind of wish I ate more of it before the meat arrived because I got full from other items quickly. Cold noodles were average. Of the four kinds of beef in the combo, I liked three of them except for one (I believe it was the NY steak) - one item was leaner/dryer than other NY steak I had elsewhere. The combo also came with individual sauces (two types - salt in oil and sweet-ish sauce). The sweet sauce was quite forgettable and so I kept dipping the meat in the salt in oil sauce, but I wish they offered other sauce...maybe like soy sauce based ones or just plain salt. The squid stir fry was spicy and I enjoyed it. The combo also came with tofu soup, which was also pretty good. Overall, there were minor stuff that didn't go with my preference, but I had a nice time at WuJu!

We usually go to the Shoreline…read morelocation, but the Lynnwood location felt even better in comparison, as there's much more appetizer and banchan options, and it's by order using a tablet instead of buffet style. We got the $32 and honestly the food selection was already more than enough. Here are a few plus: - Meat is just right, not too fat and not too lean. - Thin sliced meat are frozen when brought over - More banchan selections and tast better than shoreline store - Naengmyeon being available as an alternative to rice is a huge plus - Fried gyoza and chicken wings are piping hot when served. - service is fantastic

Only on waiter when we were but dude is so friendly and hustles. Portion sizes are awesome. Bossam was delicious and I loved the banchan. The spicy cold noodle wasn't spicy at all and very refreshing on a summer night. 100% would recommend and if you get the Bossam special, consider sharing it with 4 people because we definitely couldn't finish it with 2 people. We ordered the makgeolli as our drink which was included as a choice in the special. For about $72 with tax, pretty worth it imo for a meal that feeds 4 with an alcoholic drink. Will definitely be back and it's wild they're open to 2 am on Friday and Saturday (possibly for summer hours only).

Plenty of parking in front across the small road. Entry through a revolving door was unusual (exit had a normal door option). We were quickly seated and ordering on the digital tablet was not difficult. We avoided the combos and ordered meats a la carte. Restaurant was clean and our booth was roomy. Ventilation was great, not smoky at all despite the bbq going on at each table. When the ban-chan came we thought they had given us the wrong order... there was so much in variety and quantity! Beef bone soup, potato pancake, namuru spaghetti, onion lettuce salad, fish cake strips, kimchi, and a gourmet-looking plate of sliced tomato with yellow pickled radish and yukke! Amazing! Service was attentive and friendly and our tea and ban-chan was refilled quickly on demand. Then the meat came and the quality was very high. Thick cuts and plenty of it. We order 3 meats for the 3 of us and we had leftovers to bring home. It was a delicious and satisfying meal indeed! This will be a new add to our regular family list :)

We ordered several appetizers, but they were the last items to arrive, which defeated the purpose of ordering them first. We also ordered rice, but it wasn't brought to our table until we asked about it after waiting quite some time. Since rice is a staple accompaniment to Korean BBQ, it was frustrating to have to wait so long for such a basic item. Overall, the service and organization need significant improvement to provide a better dining experience.

Not long after we ordered though, it started getting busy, so definitely seems like a popular spot. First off, the service was great. The waitresses were super friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the whole time without being overbearing, which I always appreciate. Not gonna lie, I'm not sure of the exact names of the dishes because my Korean friend ordered everything for us but wow, everything hit. The food came out sizzling hot (literally). Everything was flavorful and comforting: * Fish, tofu, daikon, and veggie stew was super hearty with a nice spicy kick * Seafood stir-fry with noodles that had great flavor and texture * Crispy seafood pancake that was golden and packed with flavor * Plus all the little side dishes that just keep coming There's also a ton of seating, so it feels spacious even when it starts filling up. And parking was easy, lots of free parking available. Overall, such a solid spot if you're craving Korean food without the long wait (if you go early ). Definitely coming back!

I had Dawa on my bookmarks for a long time ever since I saw videos about it and just the overall good reviews. We came in and saw that the place was pretty packed on a Thursday night but we were noticed quickly by a male employee and seated right away thankfully. Once we were seated, we were handed water and utensils as well as directions on how we can order as they have a small kiosk. We put in our order of galbi fried chicken, pork on the bone stew or gamjatang, and grilled pork belly. Once the order was entered, our waiter came back with rice, banchan, sauces and accompaniments for the pork belly, salad (think it comes with the grilled pork belly), pickled radish for the chicken and plates and bowls to share. It didn't take too long for food to come back but it didn't all come together which was odd but luckily the chicken was for sharing. The gamjatang was huge and pretty good, not as good as one of my favorite places in Federal Way but I will admit that they do give some huge pieces of meat and offer a one time refill of the soup. It could use more of a kick and more seasoning. The chicken as many others have mentioned was extremely well-fried, marinated and extremely huge. I do think they have the biggest Korean fried chicken pieces that I have ever seen in Washington. The meat was juicy, the outside was crunchy, and the sauce was heavenly. My boyfriend did say the grilled pork belly was some of the best he has ever had in his life, which is super high praise and I will admit that it is very good as well! They had an interesting playlist ranging from K-pop to regular pop (lots of Justin Bieber) and sometimes they would tone it down a bit then start blasting it. The two male servers working that day (7/16/26) were fantastic about checking in at perfect times, were courteous and refilled our waters. We never had to use to kiosk to call them once which I appreciated very much. My boyfriend and I look forward to coming back and definitely want to give a heads up that their portions are huge so come hungry!

The chicken was standard fried chicken size and came with 10 pieces. It came with 2 pieces of drumsticks and the rest were chicken thighs. The kimchi pancake was super crispy. We also ordered the beef tofu soup and the chicken bulgogi entree. The tofu soup was a lot - it did not come with an egg unlike other spots. The chicken entree was flavorful overall.

Orders (4 people): - Codfish Stew (Off-menu, $33.99, serves 2) - 5/5. Spicy, flavorful, and generous with the cod. - Blood Sausage Soup ($18.95) - 3/5. Decent, but my dad (who knows this dish well) said it was just okay. His favorite is still in San Jose, CA. - Bulgogi Set with Soft Tofu Stew ($26.99) - 4/5. The bulgogi wasn't overly sweet, and the tofu stew had a unique, thick broth with plenty of toppings. Highlights: - Clay-pot rice: Fresh and served traditionally, with hot water for scorched-rice tea at the end. - Banchan: 5 different types.

Walking into the restaurant on a Sunday night, I was surprised how empty it is. There weren't much take-out orders, either. The restaurant is sizable, slightly aging, but functional and approachable. The server answered my questions effortlessly; he knows the menu well. The TWELVE choices of banchan are visually impressive in volume; not surprisingly, a mix of winners and just-ok. Their foods in general lacked something; the flavors aren't all there. Looking at the banchan photo, I can see a lack of seasonings. The foods are plainer than many other Korean restaurants. The Food: Seafood Pancake, $18.99 - 3 Stars The seafood pancake isn't evenly cooked. From the photo, three slices are crispy brown, one and a half slices are pale. A bit more attention would be helpful. We took home most of these to recook. Seafood Soft Tofu Soup, $16.99 - 2.5 Stars The tofu is broken apart in chunks. The tofu is not as smooth and soft as what I commonly encounter. The flavor is a bit dull. Flounder Combo, $27.99 - 4 Stars This combo comes with a soft tofu soup. Mushroom beef is the choice. The flounder is the best single dish of the meal, likely seasoned, and perfectly fried. The mushroom beef soup is just ok, fairly bland.
