    Spicy cold noodles
    colette b.

    We wandered into Gung Chae because the spicy cold noodles were absolutely calling my name on a hot Vegas afternoon. Sometimes the craving makes the decision for you. This is a super casual spot with refreshingly reasonable prices. We were immediately excited when the food hit the table. The spicy cold noodles were exactly what I was hoping for: sweet, spicy, icy cold, and perfectly chewy. They were incredibly refreshing and disappeared fast. We also ordered the hot stone vegetable bibimbap, which had a great variety of vegetables and was well seasoned throughout. Nothing flashy, just a really satisfying bowl that let the ingredients shine. This is the kind of neighborhood restaurant I wish we had back in the Bay Area. I'd be here all the time. Affordable, comforting, and exactly what I was looking for on a hot day.

    Food is great. Customer service is great. Clean restaurant. I like how they show display of their top food dishes.

    Beef Bulgogi  Dosirak with kimchi stew
    Krista V.

    Came here for dinner. It's a small restaurant and you order at the counter. They have free cold water in the front near the cashier. I got the bulgogi meal box Dosirak with kimchi stew. My spouse got a plate of bulgogi. The bulgogi had good flavor but was a touch fatty. The kimchi stew was delicious, I loved it! The cucumber kimchi and radish kimchi were good! The staff were super nice.

    Gung Chae is an absolute gem if you're looking for an amazing, healthy Korean meal! I ordered the Kimchi Stew, and it hit the spot. It was perfectly flavorful and comforting. As you can see from the picture, the presentation is excellent. It came served on a tray with a side of white rice (in the classic covered bowl), a fresh side salad, delicious house-made kimchi, and some savory japchae. The entire restaurant is incredibly clean with a small seating area with plenty of room for a small group. It's a self-serve setup, but the staff still made a point to check on me and make sure I was happy with my meal. Excellent food, clean ingredients, and wonderful hospitality. I will definitely be back!

    Convenient location and plenty of parking. Order at the counter and have a seat, very clean and modern restaurant. Even though it was counter ordering the cashier stopped by a few times to ask how everything was. We ordered a spicy pork and beef bulgogi Bibimbap along with the beef kalgunksu. The flavors were spot on and the Kim chee was spicy but flavorful. The clear noodles were not salty and the taste of sesame oil. The broth of the kalgunksu was savory and the noodles were cooked perfectly.

    I have been so curious about this place. I was greeted as soon as I walked in. I also noticed the Christmas decorations. It was adorable. I told them it was my 1st time and they so gladly walked me through the menu. I was taking it to go so I know this was not the whole experience. However, I was not disappointed. I ordered the Hot stone pot bibimbap beef bulgogi. When I put it all together at home, wow! I loved all the flavors I was experiencing. The side items like the kimchee was soooooo good. I will be returning and this time staying to enjoy the service. When I got

    Spicy Pork Dosirak
    Katie K.

    I've been meaning to stop by here ever since I first heard about it, and I finally got the chance while I was in the area today. I ordered the spicy pork bento box, which came with soybean paste stew, rice, and a variety of banchan. Everything was really flavorful, but my favorite banchan had to be the cucumber and radish kimchee--so fresh and delicious. I also couldn't resist ordering a side of kimchee to take home. Definitely glad I checked this place out!

    Veggie Soft Tofu Stew
    Judith T.

    love this place! It's so good and the food truly does taste healthy. Less sodium and oils. I always get the hot veggie bibimbap. But here is why I give it 4 stars. I typically add tofu to this dish and the first time I went, the employee asked the owner and she said yes but it's an extra $2 which I am totally ok with paying. But every time I go now, which at one point was everyday in the week, they tell me I can't do it or it's not allowed. At one point, they forgot the egg and didn't have some of the veggies. When I asked, they said they ran out. Wish it was more transparent since I've memorized the dish and know what is missing. What if you are new and don't know what is missing in the dish? The portion is perfect. And the taste has been consistent. The kimchi is perfect for me as it's not spicy and it's made in-house. You can even order a jar to go home. They have 50% off veggie Gimbap weekdays when you buy an entree and also price drops for kids meal with purchase of an entree. The strawberry mint tea is so good too! It does have caffeine. They have Korean drinks, juices, and desserts.

    My favorite quick stop place to have a nice little meal! I stopped here before the gym to get a snack and their bulgogi kimbap never disappoints! Their service is quick and they're always so friendly. The place has decent seating and they're very clean! Highly recommend.

    Centennial has a gem of a Korean spot in Gung Chae!! It was so hard to choose what to eat. We ordered behind 2 other ladies and as soon as we saw their bowls we followed suit. I also ordered a spicy chicken kimbap (we just finished yoga in Lee Canyon and I was starving but my eyes were bigger than my stomach). The bowl comes with house made kimchi and salad as a side and it's so delicious. The hot stone kind of toasts the rice a little which gave it such an amazing flavor. I will be back!!! Great service and we were asked if we had questions lol because I'm sure we looked indecisive. The cashier read the moment very well and was super nice. Open kitchen for the win also.

    I cannot give a review based on my own taste since I did not have an opportunity to taste the food myself. I came here as a request for my sick friend who was craving comfort food from his Korean upbringing. He was not feeling well at all and wanted soybean stew with extra kimchi. I didn't know where to go to get that so he recommended this place(he has never been here but knew it was in the area), so I went. The service was great! The young lady taking my order was sweet and respectful. The ambiance was clean and tidy. It was a small shop with some tables and chairs for a small crowd. I would like to go back and try this place for myself one day. Maybe one day soon because when I asked how the food was, my friend said it was good. He said it really helped him feel better. He just really needed a taste of home. They also offer a military discount. I'll be back again and update my review for a more personal experience with the food. Y'all should try it too!

As a part of the normal schedule, I've started to search for " go tos" and in stepped Moobongri Soondae.  This has always been on the short list for trying out so I was glad to finally make it here about a month ago. This place is in a "plaza area" and its surrounded by a bunch of different types of shops so parking is plentiful. The joint itself is clean and functional on the inside. Plenty of tables, quick /friendly service, and a bunch of options for eats. The menu is broken down by Soups, rice dishes, hotpot, jovial, soondae, bbq items and then some "app type bites". The menu is expansive but I can confidently say, I have not been disappointed yet. Over the last few trips, I have had the naengmyrun, the soondae soup, the spicy pork belly soup, and the bossam.  The banchans are good and they offer a small but delicious assortment. The Bossam was delicious, with no smell on it and good portions. The soups are all fantastic (absolutely delicious), and the naengmyun is absolutely delicious. Pair this with a nice cold bottle of soju and this meal has been hitting home every time ive been there recently. The Service is absolutely fantastic. They are super friendly and honestly so efficient. This joint is my current favorite... Just good food, good service, good eats, and reasonable prices.  Approved!

The taste and value is really great, actually. If you are looking for your "halmoni's" (grandma in Korean) authentic, homemade, caring, handmade flavors and can ignore the no-frills, don't -care, terrible location and zero curbside appeal, this is your place. Imagine going to an old neighborhood Korean home where the kimchee to the broths and banchan are made with love. The scissors are sharp so you can easily cut the perfectly fermented, primly pickled kimchee and the cucumbers (oi kimchee) are fresh and the beef broth deeply steeped and rich with flavor. Plus it's an absolute bargain for what you get. I think we ordered almost one of everything (for just the three of us) just to taste it. The naengmyun (cold noodles) were fine. Not exceptional, but decent. The saam and chive pancake was very good. Value is high, taste is high; authenticity very high. Huge portions in today's world of cutting back. But I feel fortunate to find a "go-to" for my korean cravings. Like walking into my auntie's house for some warm, deeply comforting, home-cooked k-meal. Craving the dogani bone broth soup now!! (Would have taken photos but it would have hard to judge based on photos alone. This is a place you have to go to just to taste it, not look at it).

Anywhoddles I ordered from Eki Ramen, and when I tell y'all this ramen was RAMENING! Aka delicious. Aka... fire I ordered the Black Garlic Ramen, and as you can see from the menu, it was only $12.95. I added an extra egg, extra pork belly, and extra black garlic oil because... why not? Anywhoddles with the extra "trimmings" it came to $18 dollars. Let's get back to the review Now lean in so I can tell y'all about this broth. It tasted authentic to me. It was rich, velvety, silky smooth, creamy without being heavy, and bursting with savory goodness. Every sip had me closing my eyes The noodles had the perfect bite--not too soft and not too firm. The pork belly was tender, flavorful, and had just the right amount of char around the edges. And those eggs? Whew! Perfectly jammy with that beautiful golden yolk. So... if you're a ramen lover--or if you've been thinking about trying ramen for the first time--I highly recommend giving Eki Ramen a try. And while you're there, take your time and explore Cheongdam Food Hall because there are plenty of other restaurants waiting to be discovered. Until next time... y'all already know what time it is!
