    4.2 / 5.0 A Korean restaurant in Koreatown, NJ. It must be a popular restaurant, as it fills up in the evening. It's great that they grill the meat right in front of you and serve it to you in the Korean style. They also serve a lot of appetizers like kimchi, which are great when you wrap them up with the meat!! I also like that they change the net immediately without me having to ask.   It's a great value for money restaurant and one I'd like to visit again. The restaurant is very spacious and has sofa seats, so it's great for families! It's a good place to come and eat yakiniku, as you can enjoy a variety of dishes.

    Not many places use a charcoal grill for bbq so this place stands out! You can definitely taste the smokey flavor that isn't present in other kbbq places. We ordered the beef and pork combo for 2 and honestly it could have fed 4 people. The meat quality is very good. Banchans were very good as well. Very attentive staff. The server cooks for you. It's a very large space so we didn't have to wait for a walk-in on a weeknight, but it seems like it might get busy on the weekends. Looks like a local spot. Highly recommend!

    In a strong Korean food area, this bbq is one of the best! Love the meat quality (cooked over charcoal!) the ban chan(seaweed was so good), and the fact they cook for you. Had a great feast with my girl friend here, then went downstairs to the karaoke. Get there early (or lucky enough) to grab a parking spot in their lot!

    Really good Korean bbq! We came at 2pm on a Saturday, and it wasnt too busy. A bit on the pricey side but everything was good quality and tasty. Some items were not available but the substitutes were great too. Staff did a good job working the grill and bringing more requested banchan, drinks and meat. We had some individual orders of beef and pork. Enjoyed all the banchan too which balance out the meat. We had a reservation for 8 people in a side room which was pretty private. Did not leave smelling like grilled meats. They do not have dessert. Parking lot was pretty full but we were able to find spots.

    I've gotten kbbq so many times at so many different spots across jersey and nyc and wow this blew everything i've ever had before out of the water!! the charcoal adds such a complex smoky layer to all of the meats that just cannot be recreated with a normal flame. Kinda need to get go here now every time i'm craving kbbq!! Staff is super attentive and friendly! and of course the banchan spread was incredible and complementary to the meats!

    The smoky flavor in the meats due to the charcoal fire makes a huge difference. The plain unmarinated galbi was the star. Super tender and moist, filled with juice. The thinly sliced brisket was probably my least favorite selection. The souffle egg was super silk and flavorful. They provided a bunch of side dishes and the server cooked the meat consistently med rare. I would go back for sure!

    Tips: - 5% off for a cash discount but need to let them know when they bring the check - They do charcoal here, which is a differentiator. - Rice bowls are free, but need to ask for them - Free refills of banchan, but they ran out of certain ones (potatoes, mook) - Made a reservation just an hour before, which was a good idea because they are really popular and there was a wait We ordered the beef combo for 2 and the pork combo for 4. We ended up having to take 2 pork belly to go because it was so much food. While everything was good, I would get much more of the cha-dol (thinly sliced beef) because it really absorbed the charcoal taste the most out of any of the meats.

    Pretty great Korean bbq. Comes as set menus that are pretty tasty. Found the meat to be tender as well.

    My fiancé and I went to this restaurant on a Sunday night. We didn't order bbq but regular entrees. We were welcomed by a server and he sat us on a 4 seat table. My first impression was that the table was not clean because there was still rice stuck on the table and the table was still pretty wet. Also, my chair was a bit wet. My fiancé and I wanted to leave at first but we decided to change to another table. The server was very nice and helped us move. We ordered squid stone pot and beef brisket tofu stew. They gave us many side dishes which included fish cake, dried anchovies, Kimichi, bean paste stew, and steam egg. We didn't order bbq but they placed side dishes for bbq, but we ate them too. The food turn out to be delicious and big portion. We were glad to stay and eat at the restaurant. The only thing I think the restaurant could improve the cleanliness for the cleaning their tables and the floor. They were a lot of trash on the floor and it would be way better if they swept the floor. Not sure if it because it was late when we came in to dine (9pm). Other than that, the place is pretty bright and have many seatings. There are two bathrooms by the entrance. The servers were super friendly throughout our dinner.

    Food (4/5): Got decent amount of banchan. The lettuce tasted a bit odd and soapy but the rest was really good. We ordered the beef brisket and tofu soup plus the squid stone bowl. Both dishes were good. The portions to price ratio was also very good. Service (4/5): When we mentioned that the first table was wet and dirty, they were super helpful and were willing to move us to another table. Unfortunately, a bunch of the food we initially wanted like the bulgogi and the Kimchi cheese pork belly were out. The food took a bit to come out but they were quick with the banchan so we were able to enjoy that while waiting. They also nicely gave us a steamed egg and small soup on the house. The staff overall was very friendly which was great. Ambiance (3/5): The restaurant was quite dirty. You can see scraps over the floor and the first table we got was wet and sticky with sticky menus. The next table was a bit better and cleaner. The place does look nicely decorated though with hanging lights.

    We came on a Friday night with 2 people around 5:30pm and were seated right away. It seems like this place doesn't get too crowded since there were still some tables open when we left. I enjoyed my time here but think I prefer other kbbq places over this. We got the two-person beef set combo which comes with three meats. Two of the meats were delicious and juicy but I was a bit disappointed by the wagyu brisket. When I hear wagyu I think it's gonna be super soft and melt in your mouth but when it came out it wasn't very marbled. It was a little tough, but to be fair they didn't say the grade of the Wagyu. The banchan was good and the veggies were fresh which I appreciated! They give steamed egg, stew, and corn cheese on the side which we appreciated, but they were just okay, nothing special. Something that's also pretty important to me for kbbq is the sauce since the meats are typically served without marinade and seasoning. They only had Samjang but most places have like a soy sauce based sauce to dip it in. So I was also disappointed to see they didn't have another sauce for the meats.

    Hands down the best Korean BBQ spot in New Jersey. The service is always friendly and prompt, and the quality of the meat and side dishes is top notch. As a non-Asian person who visits Korean BBQ restaurants frequently, I've noticed service can sometimes be hit or miss depending on the place--but not here. The staff is consistently welcoming, attentive, and makes the experience enjoyable every time. We've been back multiple times and it's always a great meal. Highly recommend!

    Finally got to try this place I heard so much about on a Christmas day with wife because it was…read morefrigid and we wanted a warm bowl of Korean "tang"(soup). Finding parking is quite challenging given the location on a busy commercial street, so make sure you can come earlier than meal time to have better luck. They have waiting seats OUTSIDE so yeah I suppose it's quite popular at times. 1. ATMOSPHERE (3/5) - This location is small and it's pretty straightforward place. But I still found it cozy, with decent amount of seating (I think it can handle 15-20 max) and little details like wall with wood ledges and coat hangers were a nice touch. Seating was comfortable, though we tied our down parkas around our waist as another party had hung theirs on our side of coat hangers. 2. FOOD (4/5) - We dove right in to try their famous gejang (~Korean raw crab "ceviche") and ordered two of their namesake gookbap (rice with soup) to see how they are. Here's how it went down. - Gejang (App, $20, 2/5) - I had a hunch that on a holiday perhaps I should not order this, but my craving for succulent crab flesh be damned, I went for it and unfortunately, the meat was not well-marinated as I had feared. Gejang is a dish that has to sit in the complex soy-based pickling liquid for some time... and if restaurant is too busy churning them out or if it's slow season they won't do this properly. It not only wasn't fully marinated, I think the marinade was off because the spiciness was way out of balance and was overpowering. Perhaps knowing that it didn't have enough time to marinade the kitchen put extra diced jalapenos to compensate? Because that's exactly what it tasted like - you can't fool me. I tried to salvage the dish by asking a confused-looking girl server for some sugar, but yeah, can't un-do the overpowered marinade with sprinkling of sugar. This was really unfortunate as I was looking forward to a good bite. - Ahjae Gookbap (Main, $18, 5/5) - Thankfully, their namesake gookbap was spot-on to salvage our dining. Generous slabs of succulent beef on the bone and off the bone was swimming in a hearty beef/bone broth that tasted clean and focused. Portion was good, and can I say their banchan of fish cake moochim & unfermented kimchi & ggakdugi(radish kimchi) simply ROCKS? That was some serious deliciousness and dare I say value at $18 at a day and age where hamburger costs over $10! You win at life by ordering this! 3. SERVICE (4/5) - Our server girl was attentive and food came out early on though later it was a bit hard to get her attention promptly. We found ourselves putting hands in the air, and wavin' like we don't care... for a little while. They provide gloves & metal bin for gejang which was a nice touch for people to keep their fingers clean. One thing I'd like to mention: Plastic cup they served water in was all chipped on the rim so we instead went and got water from their hot & cold water dispenser which had metal cups (as many korean restaurants do). I'd suggest them to replace all these old plastic cups with metal ones for health reasons. Overall, we were satisfied with our meal. I'd chock up the gejang mishap to it being a holiday. I hope chef was just off with the marinade that day because I am a certified gejang pro(I catch and make my own) and that balance ain't it. But I will give it another try during warmer month and we'll definitely be back to try sooyook moochim, oyster jeon & other great soup offerings.

    2nd time coming here. Small restaurant with a few tables. Thankfully when we came (Saturday…read moreevening), there was one table available and it was the same table as last time! Ordered three things: 1) marinated crabs, small size (5/5). Always a must-get here. 2) ddukbaegi bulgogi (4.5/5) - Thinly sliced prime marinated beef ribeye casserole with rice cake and glass noodle and mushroom served in a sizzling hot pot. Really flavorful and so good to have on a cold day. 3) ahjae ppyo jjim (4.5/5) - Braised prime beef meat bones in soy reduction with carrots, radish, dates, chestnut, rice cake and glass noodles. We got non-spicy. It came in a HUGE bowl. Definitely meant to be shared with a group. Took leftovers home and it was still yummy the next day mixed with knife-cut noodles I had at home.

Once I entered, was seated at a table, there was no wait.

Ended up getting the pork combo for 2 ($90) and chose to get the aged pork belly, pork jowl and marinated pork short ribs. They give you a lot of banchan (side dishes) and they were good. The quality of the pork was really good as well. There was a lot of food for two people which I really appreciated. My favorite from the pork was the aged pork belly or marinated pork short ribs, all were really good tho. The servers were excellent and were on top of all my orders and cooking everything perfectly. This is my new go to pork bbq spot.

    Ooooh, it's been awhile since my last review…read more After 4 years, I still love Wooga but those "$$$$" on the their Yelp page keeps me from eating here more often. This time around, it's a stronger 5 out of 5 because of our waiter was amazing. Ugh, I can't remember his name. He was on top of everything and making sure our food was grilled in a timely manner. He was quick to follow up with orders/requests that didn't come through when the kitchen didn't bring them out. Usually my gripe or disclaimer I give to people is that Wooga is great at everything except wrapping up things on the end. In the past, whenever I went, it would take forever (!!!!!) to get our check and pay. It was so frustrating but this time around, it was a bit faster. It's a win-win situation because we get to pay and leave and the restaurant has another table for customers. Though on the pricier side, Wooga does check off all the boxes of: -amazing meat quality -amazing & attentive service -they don't skimp on banchans (side dishes that I heard other restaurants are starting to limit) -several meat combo options -best Korean steamed egg in the North Jersey area We tried the thinly sliced oxtails, which were really good but pretty pricey for $38cash/$39.90card for 11oz of it. There are some things that are inconvenient (long waits, very small parking lot) but it's easy to overlook them once you have a meal at Wooga. Things to know before you go: -Their menu is updated on their website if you want to check that out before you go. -The earlier you go, the better your chance of being seated quickly. Weekends are definitely a longer wait, so plan ahead. -Their parking lot is small so it fills up super quickly, so you'll have to park across the street and play Frogger (maybe you might be too young to know this reference?) to cross the 4 lanes of Palisade Ave. -When you arrive, make sure to check in with the host/hostess so that you could get a pager to know when your table is ready. Your turn can come pretty fast sometimes depending on the timing.

The USDA Prime Rib Finger and Pork Shoulder were both delicious, but I think what makes this Korean BBQ restaurant shine is their accompaniments.

The banchans and stews were wonderful too. I know they have a Midtown location, but I still have not been to that branch yet. I hope its quality and service matches this location.

His hot tip: this restaurant is BYOB, so hop into the liquor store (inside the Hmart complex) next door to grab some soju and beer before settling in for some grilled meats. There are some plated dishes on the menu but with grill covers in the middle of every table, it's clear this is a restaurant meant for Korean BBQ. The pork belly was incredible with decent grill-kissed char marks. The marinated beef was tasty but a little tougher than I prefer. I love all the free side dishes that came with our meat orders, especially the soybean stew and towering egg soufflé. Service is brisk and efficient..sort of. This is the sort of place where servers hover with their order pads soon after you settle down, expecting you to just know what you want. Since this is a full-service BBQ, our server came around frequently to grill, cut, or flip or meats. After all was eaten and done, it become mysteriously difficult to flag her down for our cheque. A side note about ordering: there's a two-portion minimum for meats. My husband and I don't eat much so we thought we'd split a single order of pork belly, but our server insisted we needed to order at least two servings.

We have always enjoyed dining at Daeji Ssonday in Ridgefield, but the rude and unprofessional behavior of our waitress completely ruined our family dinner. We were seated at the table directly in front of the far back-right table (when looking from the counter). From the moment we sat down, the service was hostile: Aggressive Attitude: As soon as we sat, she demanded our order loudly. When we asked questions about the menu, she answered with visible irritation. While we were briefly discussing options with our children, she slammed her notepad onto our table with a loud "bang" and walked away, startling both us and our kids. Negligent Service: She continued to be rude throughout the meal, literally tossing side dishes onto the table. Furthermore, the exhaust hood at our table wasn't working properly, causing the smoke from the pork belly to fill the air and make it hard to breathe. She didn't check on us until much later. Ruined Meal Flow: While we were still eating our pork belly, she came over and--without asking--scraped all the meat onto a side plate to clear the grill for the spicy squid. We had to eat cold, greasy pork belly instead of enjoying it warm off the grill. She never even asked if we wanted fried rice afterward and ignored our table for the rest of the night. We always try to treat service staff with respect and gratitude, but this experience was unacceptable. Despite our polite demeanor, we were treated with zero professional courtesy. If the manager or owner is reading this, please look into the staff working that shift. This waitress needs serious retraining in basic customer service. It's a shame because we loved this restaurant, but after tonight, we have no desire to return.
