    Super cute spot my boyfriend brought me to on a date night and food was amazing, everything I tried I loved! He's a big foodie and so am I, so this was def worth it.

    Cream udong with Cod Roe butter (Soooo good)
    Angela YJ B.

    KARDEN @ Ridgefield A great place for girls' gathering with its modern ambience and somewhat fusion dishes. We had Cream udong with cod roe : Not too thick cream and with the salty cod roe, it gave the umami. (But, quite unfamiliar with squash and eggplant in it.) Stir fried pork with octopus ($47 for 2) Large hot pan and stir fried onions to give it sweetness. Looks very spicy but very tolerant level. After we were half way through, they asked if we wanted to fry some rice. (Additional charge $9) Then the beef tartare with buckwheat noodles. I have always loved their beef tartare and it was well complemented with the noodle and veggies ($38).

    Overall a nice modern Korean restaurant in north Jersey. Came here for a friend's reunion for which we had a weekend dinner reservation we called ahead for. Service overall was friendly and timely though they did completely miss one of our drink order. But when we brought it up, they resolved it. Food itself was good - We had a larger group so got several different main plates and the ones I tried had overall good flavors. Ambiance is nice and in line with similar modern Korean restaurants. Good for dates, groups, and even a nice dinner out with the family.

    Wow, it's been awhile I was satisfied with everything about a restaurant, from the ambiance to the service and the food in its representation and the taste. I had this place bookmarked for awhile and finally got to come here with a friend. The area wasn't what I expected but once you walk inside, it is a completely different vibe. It's somewhere I would come for a nice meal with my parents or for a date night. The staff here are very friendly and give you enough space so you can enjoy your time with your party, but attentive enough so that we don't have to ask for our cup to get our water refilled. We ordered the k-beef striploin tartare bibimbap and the marinated pork galbi gui. Both were SO good and I love the sides that they came out with, as well as the representation/plating for everything. The grilled meat did get cold pretty fast but it was still very yummy! We left feeling very satisfied and I definitely want to come back here with my parents!

    We made reservations for a Saturday evening dinner to celebrate Mother's Day. The restaurant has their own parking lot to the side, although self parking spots are limited and the other handful of parking are valet. The restaurant has an upscale appearance with a casual and family friendly vibe. The staff were all very friendly and the service provided was top notched. We ordered the fried pork skin as appetizer and the han ban for two as our main entree. The food was delicious and plentiful. The meats were all flavorful and tender. The egg and soup dish were great and complimented the meats very well. We will definitely return to try out other menu options.

    My partner and I reserved for the night of Valentines Day at 7PM and we were promptly seated. Keep in mind that it is Valet parking mandatory so we asked for cash breaking inside so we could tip after dinner. The interior is very pretty and clean, and makes for great ambience. There's also Korean music playing which we enjoyed. We ordered the prix fixe menu for Valentines Day at $99/person. Surprisingly it came with lots of food and we left stuffed and with some minimal leftovers. We started with a complimentary glass of champagne for both of us. For appetizers, we got the pancake flight (4 pancakes, truffle,meat,etc) and fried fish. For entrees, we were served a meat platter for 2 to share, and then each chose an additional entree (spicy octopus bibimbap and perilla oil pasta). We ended the night with a basque cheesecake. Overall my favorites were definitely the fish, the meat platter for 2, and the spicy bibimbap. The cheesecake was also creamy and a sweet way to end the night. We came knowing we'd be paying for a more fancy meal and a prix fixed for Valentines, but we left pleased at the quality overall of the food. The only things that could be improved was the service speed near the end of the meal as it was hard to get our check. (And more options for parking!) But overall, we really enjoyed our meal and would maybe come back for another occasion!

    15/10. This spot is PHENOMINAL. Would definitely come back to this area just to eat at Karden. Ambiance -- definitely upscale but not so upscale that it's snobby. Very clean, comfortable seating, medium volume. Service -- very attentive! Not so much that you feel pressured to leave or order. Very precise. I asked for the sweetest cocktail on the menu, and my server came back with a specific answer. No guessing games. Food -- OUT OF THIS WORLD. Seafood Udon is a must have. The sauce is so creamy and perfect, with a slight kick! 100/10, would make an excuse to fly out her to come again.

    Food 7/10 Ambiance 10/10 Service 10/10 Tips : make reservations in advance this is a "high-end " Korean cuisine restaurant, fusion with unique menu items. The "banchan", or side, dishes, were made from high-quality ingredients and the portion sizes were great. Only downside was that I thought the concept was really great, but some of the ingredients didn't really go well together. Service was great, one of the waitresses spilled some of our wine and gave us a free beer! Also, a unique concept of combining French cuisine/western foods with Korean cuisine, definitely a great way to introduce Korean food to foreigners.

    Karden is a modern Korean restaurant that has a bit of everything but with a very modern upscale spacious look. But don't let the decor fool you thinking it is only about fining dining. They have quite a bit of everything from traditional comfort Korean dishes to trendy dishes. It's a good experience for the uninitiated into Korean food in a very nice looking restaurant. The food is on the pricier side but the value is there with the service and decor. If you are on a date then picking the combo package per person is the way to take out the guesswork and have a bit of everything. Cocktails are very nice, Asian infused cocktail drinks.

    BIBIMBAP sides

    Delivered order. First time trying this place... I wanted to eat as healthy as I can with no spicy things because I had an issue with the stomach before a medical procedure 2 weeks ago; I'm recovering . I love spicy food but , for now I can't. This plate was exactly what I was looking for!!! I think with the spicy sides or the spicy salsa ( gochujang, I guess) the bibimbap has to be impressive!!!.... Personally, I removed egg and 2 more things ( I'm not sure if were doraji and gosari ) I'm not a big fan of chewy- rare food Next time, I'll try this with Gochujang sauce and the spicy sides..... mouth watering now Thank you guys, blessings!

    One of the best Korean set meals I've had. Huge selection of all your popular Korean dishes into one meal. The quality was good, sausage, Galbi, egg, soup, rice cake, shrimp were the highlights. While the menu says it's for 2, I think it's more perfect for 3. Great service and I would come back! I believe it was around $120 after tax?

    Inside
    April L.

    Upon entering I did NOT expect such a nice interior. I had heard it was a korean restaurant. Whenever I drove passed, the entire area always looked packed. I knew this place was popular but now I see why. Everything was beautiful. Duo set - so much foooood Pasta over stone pot Truffle potato jeon - unlike any potato jeon I've ever had This is the perfect place for groups, family, and occasions for impressing. Platings and presentations were aesetically pleasing. We must have had a little bit of almost everything. Lunch weekdays are the best deals. Parking is available in a small side lot. Love love love this place! Will be back for more!

    Beautiful presentation, terrible taste unfortunately.

    Please save your money and don't come here. We had a bad start with the tuna tataki appetizer. The tuna was straight up FROZEN, it tastes more like ice than tuna. We sent the dish back to the kitchen, but they brought it back out and told us it was how it was supposed to taste like. I've had tuna tataki at other restaurants before and never had this experience... My husband ordered beef tartare bibimbab, and the beef was also frozen. It seems like it's the norm to serve frozen meat at this restaurant. The service and the grilled meat at the restaurant is good-ish, which is the only reason why it would deserve 1 star. For the price tag ($99/pp for a 4-course meal) and the bad experience, we would never come back here.

Drinks were reasonably priced but the whole experience falls apart at the bar. I went here on a Thursday night, and was floored by how terrible the bartenders were. There were two of them working, and I would say the place was just minorly crowded. It literally took about 10-15 minutes for the bartender to even ask me what I wanted (A beer and a simple mixed drink). He then proceeded to walk away inbetween each step of service... giving me the beer, putting ice in my glass, pouring my liquor, and then the mixer. Then when he was done, I waited a bit longer for him to allow me to pay. I was also surrounded by a group of others who were just standing around trying to close out their tabs (a process which involves the bartender giving the card to their manager who takes it back into the kitchen to run the card... which I'm sorry but is completely inefficient and takes too long and just looks shady). I left after my second drink because I could have fermented the vodka myself before getting served a third time. It's a shame because the space is well done and the music was, in my opinion, really good.

The bar area is beautifully adorned with embroidery patches acknowledging the police, fire department, medical services and armed forces. As a bonus, the bar area has USB/plug outlets for patrons to conveniently charge their phone while dining. Nachos Grande: This appetizer was practically a meal in itself; the nachos can easily feed 2-3 people. Hidden beneath the tortilla chips were mounds of salsa, melted jack cheese, shredded lettuce and hearty chunks of chicken. (If you do not prefer chicken, you can also choose chili for the same price.) You are receiving a vast variety of toppings and there is more than a fair share of flavor. Roast beef with garlic bread: There was decent amount of shredded beef piled in between soft, doughy garlic bread. The roast beef was tender and moist and it had a perfect ratio of mozzarella. For a small up charge, I substituted mashed potatoes in place of fries. It was definitely worth it because the potatoes were hot and creamy with a thick mound of hot gravy in the center. Chicken Parm: On a positive note, the fries were spot on. They were hot and crispy with a billowy potato filling. Unfortunately, I couldn't necessarily acquire a taste for the CP sandwich. The cutlet was too thin (I prefer thicker cutlets when served as a hero because it pairs better with the toasted garlic bread). The mozzarella was missing a char. Regardless of this single sandwich, I enjoyed everything else and the service was amazing. The servers are very down to earth. They always refilled my glass and made sure I was taken care of. I highly recommend exploring this location when you're next in the area. A limited size parking lot is across the street, but there are many side streets to where you can easily find a parking space. #the101pub #bogotanj #nachosgrande #chickenparm #roastbeefwithmozzarella
