    It was such a pleasure to dine here! The service was a solid 10/10, hands down. The woman working was extremely kind and welcoming. She greeted us immediately with a warm smile and served us hot tea. The restaurant is clean and well lit with natural light, and there are heaters under the tables to help keep you warm during these colder days. We ordered the Chicken Katsu Sandwich and a Spicy Pork Bento Box. The chicken katsu in the sandwich was delicious, with the perfect crisp and flavorful seasoning. However, the toasted bread made the overall texture a bit too hard and crunchy to enjoy fully. The Spicy Pork Bento Box was a perfect portion for a filling lunch. It included a good amount of meat with great flavor and was not overwhelmingly spicy. The salad was fresh, and the kimchi was absolutely delicious. The potstickers/dumplings were okay--not a flavor I particularly enjoyed & the miso soup was a bit cold. Overall, I had a lovely lunch here and will happily return again!

    Recently tried the chicken katsu sandwich and while I'm used to pork sandos, having it in chicken was a nice surprise. It was tender, juicy, and a great price to boot. Pretty filling all on its own and doesn't come with anything else but we did get to try the housemade chicken dumplings on the side and they were great too. Service was very attentive and overall a seamless dine-in experience. Hope to return and try other menu items!

    Attractive little restaurant diverse menu. Today I just tried the O!Dang! original Kimbap which was freshly made, delicious. From the first bite I knew it was exceptional Presented in a very nice custom box.

    Locally owned gem! The staff is really friendly and makes you feel like family. The place is really cozy and was able to pleasantly enjoy my lunch. The chicken is spectacular and I didn't expect to eat a full 20 pieces! I was also accommodated with tea and a side of radish to cleanse my palette. A little bit pricey but definitely would come back again to try more!

    It's good to try new things. It's isn't Mama Hen's fault that I'm not a kimbap fan. Her service is amazing. The edamame and wings were delicious. Will have to come another day when they have the homemade peach iced tea in stock.

    Mama Hen House is such a gem! I was craving kimbap and Korean fried chicken, and my husband suggested Mama Hen House. We ordered take-out, but still, the service was impeccable and the price was super reasonable. I look forward to ordering from here again!

    I was looking for a quick meal before heading to Newark and Mama Hen's caught my eye. Their food was delicious-- very flavorful and exactly like what I had when living in Korea. I sampled their pajeon (seafood pancake) that was perfectly crispy and accompanied by the perfect sweet-savory-spicy sauce, as well as their spicy pork and bulgogi bento boxes. Their portion sizes were great especially with the banchan (side dishes). I got a kimbap (Korean rice roll) to go and it was the perfect dinner before my flight.

    This is the real deal. Everything here is certified tasty. Kimbap one of the best and i would argue better than anything over in palpark. Fried chicken is also amazing like everything else on the menu.

    My family stumbled upon Mama Hen House this past weekend and had such a lovely experience. You can tell that the restaurant is wonderfully new because the interior feels fresh, clean, and really well kept. The menu had so many good options to choose from and I really appreciated that the prices were reasonable. I got a spicy pork bento box that was delicious and came with many fresh and tasty sides. Our waitress (who I believe owns the restaurant?) was so warm as well. One thing I definitely want to emphasize is that this restaurant was extremely kid friendly! The restaurant had a Stokke type high chair for my youngest that was super clean and comfortable for him. There were so many options for my kids on the menu between kimbaps and even dino nuggets. Lastly, when bringing out all our food, the waitress brought out the cutest utensil sets for our kids to eat with. Overall, we had such a wonderful experience and felt that the Mama Hen House team has been so thoughtful in caring for their diners. Will definitely be back soon!

    Hi Jenny, thank you for reaching back out.

    Hi Jenny, thanks for responding. I had the wrong date and I remember buying 2 orders of chicken a large coleslaw and a drink. Thanks again for responding

    I've been here twice already. Great spot. It's sit-down service kind of. Byob too by the way. It's a family run place with the daughter at the register and the parents cooking with love in the back. They're all very friendly The interior has potential but could be improved with some paint and more matching tables and chairs. It's a more casual vibe. The kimbaps and wings are the stars of the place. The Korean wings are small but mighty in flavor Love the honey glaze wings they were excellent. I normally get spicy but my girlfriend can't take spice so I compromised but trust me they were excellent. We had three different kinds of kimbap. The bulgogi, the shrimp tempura and spicy pork. All were good but the spicy pork was my favorite. They also give free Cole slaw with every yelp check in. Cole slaw is fantastic too. Everything we had was amazing I think the kimbaps are the best value. But to tell the truth everything was worth the price You must come here you won't regret it. They also have a frequent customer card which they'll give you if you ask. After 10 visits you get a free kimbaps. Pretty cool. If this helped hit the useful button and follow me. You're welcome Yelp and remember, be nice to each other.

    Is it BYOB?

    They don't serve alcohol so I think that means by default it's byob. Best to call and confirm

    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.

Side dishes (fresh kimchi, radish, fish cake, and egg) were AMAZING. Had so many refills. Come here!! FOOD: Premium Soy Marinated Crab (9/10) - Insanely sweet and crab sizes are very generous. Mix the rice in the head, you won't be disappointed Soy Marinated Blue Crab (8/10) - Also really good, but crabs are a bit smaller. Still tastes great with the rice Bibingnaeng (8/10) - Really solid cold noodles with beef, pear, and cucumbers? Great way to finish off the meal.

He was going back and forth to so many tables and still having convos with everyone. Shout out to JoJo! You can do hot pot, kbbq, or both. It's also byob, so that's great. They provide the same cups as all the other drinks. Limited slushies from their machine. However, my favorite section of this place is their banchan and other hot foods selection. There's marinated wings, japchae, kimbap, stews, stirfry, tteokbokki, etc. For dessert, there's soft serve and bingsu! FYI, they don't have those large vents usually above the tables during kbbq, so make sure you're not going anywhere afterwards that minds you smelling like bbq. Located in a shopping area, so plenty of parking! Definitely will be visiting again!

Neither of us tried the Moon yet so we decided to check it out. I was able to easily make a reservation via Yelp for 6 people for 12:30 (4 adults + 2 toddlers). For the most part, we already knew what we wanted to order, so we placed an order for the BBQ items and hot pot meats first. Only the meats are the items you need to order. Everything else, you grab at the buffet - including seafood, fish balls, veggies, and noodles. The BBQ items are just okay, but that tends to be the case with you have hot pot + BBQ. The hot pot beef was good but the lamb was super gamey, which turned my broth into a gamey lamb flavor, making everything else I cooked in there have a trace of that too. Bottom line - skip the lamb. As for the buffet, they have a lot of options. Aside from the typical hot pot items, they also have some Korean dishes like kimbap, japchae, kimchi, as well as some fried items. I don't think I liked the Moon enough for a return trip. It's also slightly pricier than other hot pot + KBBQ spots, so I think I'll check out some of the other ones next time.

    Hands-down one of my absolute favorite places to go when I'm craving authentic Korean comfort food…read more (I believe they also operate Busan Gukbap in Fort Lee with the exact same menu, which I also completely love!). If you are coming here, you are coming for the soups. My ultimate go-to is the Dwaeji Gukbap (pork in ox bone soup). The broth is deeply flavorful, rich, and incredibly comforting. I also highly recommend their Soondae Guk (blood sausage in ox bone soup) and the classic Seolleongtang (ox bone soup). You really can't go wrong with any of their traditional broths. The service is fantastic, fast and always friendly. Prices have gone up a bit, but they now offer a discount if you pay in cash, so it's definitely worth bringing some bills with you.

The person apologized for not clarifying and helped us pack the food to go. Ambiance (4/5): Solid shop with wood decor and food pictures. Not the fanciest looking but looks traditional and nice.
