    Found on yelp, great reviews!( 4pm closed Starbucks next-door. The barista." I highly recommend you try their food. It is excellent."
    Grace E.

    I only put a two because the location was closed however barista next-door in Starbucks highly recommends stating they have excellent food and her and her coworkers enjoy all the time.

    Really good quality food with good portions. Their California roll is one of tree best I've had in a while's I got the bento and it came with salad, protein, Mac salad, gyoza and Cali roll! For about $18 this was easily 2 meals for me. They're right off the central exit off the 91. Food also tastes authentic.

    The sushi here is always amazing! I usually come for lunch because the space is spotless, the staff is super friendly, and the rolls are always fresh. I tried their new sushi dog today and WOW -- it was so filling that I could barely get through half of it. Definitely worth a try! OVERALL DELICIOUS

    I got couple rolls - California roll, Super Crunch roll, baked salmon roll, baked lobster roll. All the rolls were on point but my favorite was the Baked Lobster roll. It was different from what I usually get but it was so good! So much flavor! We also got the Tempura Udon and the broth was amazing!!! It had a bit of a kick to it but it complemented the sushi rolls. Highly recommended! Would be coming back

    The service was great, first time coming here and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The food tasted absolutely great and tbh the specialty rolls were priced fairly. You can go to other sushi places and get mid sushi at the same price or more, this place is solid. I also like their inside seating, very clean and although limited, great use of the spa

    Dynamite Roll

    Great service & hospitality! Been here twice now since the new ownership and it's great. Highly recommend, especially since it's a new business. Food was great both times! Definitely will make this my new go to spot considering it's a couple minutes from me & all the other decent places are further. 10/10.

    It's great to a sushi and Asian food at this location. The service people are really kind and prices are good. I recommend this restaurant.

    We came a few weeks ago on a Thursday night with a party of 5 at 6:30 pm. There was plenty of…read moreseating. The ladies who served us were so nice. And EVERYTHING was so delicious. We shared: - bossam pork belly wraps- so good. The sauce and veg it came with were delicious. - pork neck stew- spicy and good. - Since they ran out of lots of the pork bones they supplemented with a bowl of galbi jjim and it was so good/ very beefy and clear broth. Well seasoned and salted. - bibim naengmyeon- we asked for the spicy sauce on the side, but ended up mixing it in. So good and chewy and spicy. They gave us a complimentary bowl of the mul naengmyeon which was also so delicious and refreshing. - seolleongtang- it was so beefy and delicious. The banchan were so tasty. Definitely would come back to try more dishes... and eat the same ones from before haha!!

    So this is my honest experience of this restaurant from my visit today at dinner time…read more It's not good. It about 60% full. Our food was mediocre at best. We ordered the galbi combo with spicy tofu. Soup was under seasoned and inedible. The galbi was the cheapest flaken cut you can buy at the Korean market. Its was fatty and full of gristle and was not cooked and was raw in the middle. The staff in Korean were bad mouthing and so sour working there it was sad. If you under staffed and unhappy then go to the back and scream and cuss but Why are you so sour and make sure the customers can hear you while passing by with the food and complain it's too busy ? There was one elderly lady maybe in her 80s with possibly her two daughters. They were sitting there for at least 45 minutes when the waitress came up and said I just want to double check your order that's when they realized that the waitress didn't even put their order in they were saying in Korean that please don't leave. Granny is here and we will get the food out as soon as possible and yet as they were leaving the table, you can see them with a smirk on their face. It was disgusting. The worst part is isn't actually even over there must've been a table of 20 across from us celebrating a birthday and they were there before we were and they must have been served at least an hour after us and the waitresses were so rude to them. I felt so bad for that party, but they looked so laid-back. I don't know if they really even noticed or cared. We ended up trying to pay for 10 minutes to get out of there and finally just got our own containers from the weight station a plastic bag and as they saw that we were leaving they finally took our payment Maybe this was an off night maybe there was a different cook in the back maybe they were so busy that they just couldn't pay attention to flavor any of their food or cook it thoroughly. Maybe they were short and someone called in for staffing. All I know is everyone with the prior reviews seem to have great service and food, but this is definitely not what we experienced and definitely not what the table behind us or the table in front of experienced This was by far hands-down, the worst experience. Hopefully this never happens to you cause we'll never come back.

The inside is nice and spacious, a little dimly lit and clean. The worker was very friendly and service was quick. We asked for his recommendation and he suggested we try any of the yukgaejang. He brought out two sets of banchan - fish cakes which were firmer and more seasoned with sesame oil than some other place which was pleasant, a nice sweet fresh kimchi, and some chive kimchi, as well as the condiments for our dishes. To split, we got the small bossam, the rice cake and dumpling soup, the mul naengmyeon, and the yukgaejang with fresh pasta. Everything was super flavorful, large enough to split between the 5 of us, and delicious. The standouts are definitely the yukgaejang - the fresh pasta may sound weird but is a nice chewy thick noodle and the broth is rich and flavorful with just a bit of spice - and the bossam - at a lot of places the small bossam is still huge, and this was a good size so that we still had room for other dishes, and the meat itself was more flavorful, tender and nice and warm on the steamer that it came out on! The rice cake and dumpling soup and the mul naengmyeon were also solid. I'll definitely be back at Yuk Dae Jang for a warm comforting bowl of yukgaejang and bossam with friends :) Bonus, you don't have to go to ktown!

Instead of showing any understanding or hospitality, the owner told me to leave the restaurant and wait in the coffee shop next door. I was shocked because I had every intention of purchasing food. I wasn't causing a disturbance or asking for anything unreasonable. The way I was spoken to and treated made me feel embarrassed, unwelcome, and honestly as though I was being judged before I was even given a chance to order. I left feeling humiliated. Customer service is about treating people with basic kindness and respect, and unfortunately, that was completely missing during my visit. I won't be returning, and I hope the owner learns that a little compassion can make a huge difference in how customers are treated.

For 2 people, we definitely had leftovers, but I think these two dishes would be a good amount to share between 3-4 people. If you're coming with more than 2 people, I'd recommend adding some extra toppings to the tteokbokki so everyone has more to share. The tteokbokki comes with toppings already added, including cheese, sausage, and corndogs. I personally wasn't a huge fan of the cheese on it, but overall everything was good and there was plenty to share. My favorite was definitely the bulgogi fries! I loved dipping the fries into the tteokbokki sauce. Service was pretty standard, but just a heads up that they play the music pretty loud. If you're planning to really catch up and have a conversation with a friend, this might not be the best spot because we were basically yelling to hear each other. Overall, we enjoyed the food and left with leftovers after only ordering two items. Definitely come hungry!

The service is a mix of people and robotic delivery system, which was really convenient for getting our food items quickly. The staff are very friendly, attentive, and knew when to change grills without being asked. We chose to go with Menu B, which is $30/person for lunch pricing. Beef belly - 10/5, my favorite cut and they have an excellent balance of fat and meat. Brisket - 5/5, good! But chewier than the beef belly since it's a lean cut. Garlic Pork belly - 4/5, delicious but the garlic burnt on the grill. Pork belly slices - 5/5, more convenient than pork belly since the slices are thinner and cook faster. Galbi short rib - 5/5, sweet marinade and very tender. The other menu sides we ordered were mix veggies, steamed egg, corn cheese, beef soup, salad, and rice paper. Their banchan is on the sweeter side, but 10/10 I loved the kimchi and kimchi radish dishes. Lots of parking available directly in front of the restaurant and in the plaza.

Our server was attentive for the first 15-20 minutes, then disappeared without saying a word. We later found out from another server that he had gone on lunch break. For about 35-40 minutes, no one checked on our table, our grill wasn't changed, and we weren't able to place any additional food orders until we flagged someone down. That level of communication and service is very unprofessional. To make matters worse, an automatic 18% gratuity is added for parties of four or more. It feels like there is little incentive to provide good service when the tip is guaranteed regardless of the experience. Overall, the food quality and service have both gone downhill. I'll probably spend the extra 15 minutes driving and go to GEN or another Korean BBQ restaurant instead. Very disappointing experience.

It was a busy day for Mul Naeng-Myeon but they conveniently had a couple tables for us. They can get busy, and there was a line forming as we were eating, so it is understandable if the service can seem a little pushy at times, and this comes out in very subtle ways (i.e. There's no AC, only a small fan. If they want you to leave, they'll position the fan away from you). Cold water is also only available upon request, as well as extra napkins. Otherwise, you'll be wiping your mouth with a one-ply napkin the whole time. The banchan was great. I especially loved the onions and perilla leaves. The kimchi tasted fresh and tangy, but the radishes were a bit too sweet and cut very clunky. The Naeng-Myeon was good; it tasted very heavily of sesame, and not much else. The meat was also pretty tough to chew. Very filling, but expensive for the amount of meat you get. Definitely made use of the vinegar and mustard, which they eventually took away to give to another table. I'm thinking I just ordered the wrong thing and came on the wrong day. I saw what other people ordered, and it looked delicious, always served with enthusiasm. Next time, I'll have what they're having.
