100% will go back to Minji's Cafe. The reviews are true. Small mom and pop restaurant with great dishes. I have lived in Florida for 20 years and am upset that it took me this long to discover this place. read more

Small mom and pop place. Serves Korean food, drinks (beer pop makuli but no soju) in a strip mall. I was happy to find Korean food in otherwise non Asian area. Food was ok, homemade like. Other Korean BBQ place near was dead, so we came here instead. It was a better choice. read more

Their food was amazing and actually authentic. The food is truly Korean food and the staff are Korean themselves which for some reason is not common in Miami. The boss of this establishment is really accommodating and nice!!! I didn't have the pleasure of going to the store in person but even with the DoorDash order the food was hot and delicious. I took a picture mid devour. I will seek this place everytime I'm in Florida! read more

Minji's Cafe - Jaeyook Spicy Pork Over Rice / 제육덮밥 - Korean Near Me - Lauderhill, Florida

This is my first time trying traditional Korean food and I was thrilled. Everything we had was delicious. They offer a menu with pictures along with their regular menu which was very helpful for the items I didn't know the names to. The restaurant is small but clean and has pictures and sayings all over the walls. It's very fun and charming. The food takes a while to come out but it didn't bother me because everything was fresh and made to order. I can't wait to try more items on the menu. read more

AUTHENTIC KOREAN FOOD! 1st time here and it didn't disappoint. They had all the classics, good prices, staff was friendly, food came out fast and was very flavorful. I will say, I wish there was add-on options for the ramen (like rice cake, fish cake, cheese). I could definitely tell immediately this was an authentic spot with the cozy vibes and Korean tv haha. I would definitely come back here. read more

Minji's Cafe - Ramen & Spicy Rice Cake - Korean Near Me - Lauderhill, Florida

One of my fav Korean restaurants. Local business for over 15 years. No frills no fuss just authentic Korean food and friendly service. Their KFC wings are sooooooo good you must get them. The tteokbokki is great to you can add cheese, hotdogs, egg, etc. don't forget to try their soups, gizzards, and their cold noodles. I'm a fan of it all, their banchan is fresh and tasty. The owner is friendly and doesn't speak much English so don't take it personal. Oh And to drink my fav, Makku. read more

I hesitated to write a review on Minji's because I want to gatekeepe this spot for as long as I can. But... the world deserves to know just how amazing Minji's is. Maybe the most authentic Korean food I've had the pleasure of experiencing. Coming here feels like a special treat, although if I could, I'd probably eat it every day. Service is always amazing and the food never disappoints. This time around we got the kimchi pancake to share, which was a nice balance of a crunchy outer layer and a soft doughy inside packed with kimchi flavors. We tried the cod stew which was also packed with flavor and was a perfect warm dish. Finally, I got the jjol-myeon which is a chewy cold noodle with egg on top. And of course, the side dishes that include pickled radish and kimchi. Overall, Minji's is truly an amazing hole-in-the-wall that has been a longtime favorite of mine. If you enjoy Korean food, you have to come here. You won't regret it. read more

Really enjoyed the food I got today as a delivery--reminded me of food back from home! The food came nice and hot, and super fresh! Loved how I was able to get the side dishes on the side, and the spice level was just right for the tofu soup! Would totally recommend if you're in the mood for Korean food read more

Was very hungry for lunch and stopped by here. Pork katsu Very thin but crispy. Rice was good and fluffy. I've never had the cabbage and thousand island dressing before, it was sweet and tangy. Also came with pickled radish which was tangy too. Seafood pancake Delicious. The dipping sauce tasted like ponzu? Which is an acidic soy sauce Overall good. I didn't know most dishes were going to be acidic. It tasted very good though. Will be back to try more dishes. read more

Good Korean food is available here. It's not fancy, but you can get an authentic Korean home-cooked-style (Jip bap집밥) meal. This place reminds me of my mom's homemade food. It's not too sweet, salty, or spicy. The price is fairly reasonable. It's a good place to get quick Korean food. 가격도 맛도 괜춘합니다 반찬 안짜고 맛있어요 추천 read more

Minji's is a nice little spot to get authentic Korean food. It's a cozy restaurant with a friendly staff that greats you as you enter. Great Mom and Pop restaurant in the corner of the shopping plaza. It's got a laid back, casual ambience like a friendly neighborhood restaurant should. The food was pretty good and we weren't waiting long at all. I had the Fried Rice Omelette with beef which is a great choice if you want something that's filling but doesn't feel too heavy. The ramen is pretty good as well. Overall the meals were inexpensive and everyone left feeling satisfied. Parking is pretty open as it's located in the right hand corner of the shopping plaza. It has a small sign to keep your eyes open for but there are always the neon signs to make sure you don't miss it. Business hours are usually from 5pm to 10pm. If you are in the area, give it a try! read more

Coming from a Korean girl from Cali, this place is great. Definitely the most authentic Korean food I have had since moving to Florida. It's a hole in the wall, but those are the best right?? They have all the panchan (side dishes) too! We ordered the dumplings, galbi, grilled pork belly, spicy pork, and some soju. All very good. I definitely recommend coming here for authentic Korean food!! :) I will be back. read more

Authentic hole in the wall Korean restaurant that had good traditional dishes at great prices. The restaurant itself is not very big and it is very simply. There's a TV that plays Korean game shows and the feel of the place is like you're eating at Minji's house. Quality of food was fresh but certain dishes were better than others. There have the traditional appetizers - dukbokki, dumplings and pancake. There are a lot of different types of stew, some BBQ meat options and a few noodle dishes. We started off with the seafood pancake. It was on the undercooked side. I like my pancake thin, loaded with seafood and crispy. This was thick, not a lot of seafood and very doughy/'raw' in the middle. We also ordered a bowl of JaJungMyun. There is a Korean version of this dish and a Chinese version. Typically the Korean version is sweeter and the sauce is thicker, however, Minji's really adds a lot of cornstarch to their sauce. The mackerel stew I thoroughly enjoyed. It was fishy but I loved it. And there was a lot of tofu as well. It wasn't super spicy but there is a kick to it. Very good and highly recommend if you don't mind fish. read more

I lived in Cheongju, South Korea for many years and am SO happy to have found Minji's cafe for the authentic Korean cuisine I've been searching for. The food, the service, the atmoshpere, everything is incredible. We live about 35-40 minutes away but are happy to make the drive to Minji's. What a gem! read more

Ordered thru Uber Eats. I'm in search for a good Korean restaurant as I eat Korean food at least once every other week. -delivered quick even it's 20 min away from my house -food portion was small. It might be different when you dine in. - Pork belly as good. Simple flavoring (not too salty which is plus). Sides also were small/ sauce containers. Kimch, fish cake and shredded potato which all were good flavor. Fish cake was more salty side than sweet. -soft tofu soup: small portion/ half pint which is 50% less than other Korean restaurants. Flavor was good. Not spicy (I'd prefer hotter but not complaining). Had few shrimps, a shellfish, zucchini onion tofu & egg (not whole but maybe beaten?). I'd try dining in if I have a chance to give this place a better/fair review. read more

An all time favorite. Fresh side dishes, delicious kimchi stew with chunks of meat and tofu in a fresh broth...great customer service, moving swiftly in the busy restaurant. It's small and quaint, as soon as you walk in it's a concert sound of KBS channel with Korean music videos. I'm all for the culture. I like the handwritten menu on the walls. The presentation of the food was excellent. Bright colors and neatly placed on the platters and bowls. At first I only ordered online and had it sent home, but today was such a treat to experience Minji's cafe. I am officially a regular. I love Korean food! read more

I have been wanting to try this place for awhile. I was disappointed with the food. The Spicy Rice Cake was flavorful and delicious. However, the Soft Tofu Stew was a small container (pint) of soup for nearly $20 that was way too oily. The Spicy Squid Over Rice was flavorful, but filled with oil. The Pickled Radish was the only decent side dish. The other side dishes were tasteless. read more

Went to Minji's cafe for dinner for my son in laws birthday . He was born in South Korea and loves the food. The food was delicious. The service was excellent. Small diner/cafe setting , but clean and comfortable. Prices reasonable . Wonderful dinner ! read more

3.5 Stars. I rounded up to 4 stars because you can't beat the price. This is definitely a hole in the wall and reminded me of restaurants in Korea-town, New York, NY. It's set back in a plaza with their name in Korean. When we walked in, it was pretty packed for 8 pm on a Saturday evening. We were seated right away. They provided us cold water from a tumbler and styrofoam cups. Also, the temperature inside was probably 90 degrees, it was actually cooler outside when we left. We ordered steamed dumplings to start. The dumplings took 15 minutes to come out. Once it came out, it was delicious. They provided complimentary banchan which included steamed bean sprouts, fish cakes, kimchi, and yellow pickled daikon. For my main entree, I ordered the bulgogi over rice which was $10.99 and a good size. It came with some lettuce. The portions were big; however, the meat was on the bland side. I asked for their Korean sauce that they use on bibimbap, that made it better. My husband ordered the spicy squid over rice, that was amazing and flavorful, I should've ordered that. Service-3.5 stars Food-3.5 stars Price-4 stars Ambiance-3 stars I loved their chalkboard artwork. It's not a fancy spot but it's an affordable spot for good Korean food. read more

Above average experience. Way better than Namu! Location: not the most convenient location to find. It's one of those bodega that need some effort to discover but totally worth the time. We wanted some typical Korean home food. So we found this place. Also it was a recommended spot at some Chinese social media platform. Place is decently sized, if I remember correctly, it has six tables. One table holds four people. Place is very quite. We have visited two times already. Both time we go, there weren't many customers ( I blame the location) but the food always brings surprise and satisfaction. We have tried: Fried squid: not good, very doughy Fried chicken: very nicely fried, sweet and sour and spicy sauce, almost like spicy tomato jam, very additive ( order both times) recommend!!! Noddle with black soy bean paste: average, a little blend for me. Cold noodle: Amazing!!!!! Very refreshing, good portion for one person, comes with pickled veggies. Delicious!!! Love love love Bibimbap with hot stone pot: fresh ingredients, my friend liked it a lot, but he said hot sauce is too liquidy, but it's wasn't a big issue. Seafood pancake: so crispy, so good. It is also a good portion too. We had take some home lol Decoration: adorable chalk art surround whole dining area. Super artsy and cute. Love drunk pikachu lol. Most importantly this place is very homey and great for comfort meal after a raining day. Definitely deserve more customers. Good luck to them and hope I would visit again. Thanks read more

This is the great value korean place at our neighbourhood, so we will just swingby to have our dinner at affordable price compare to other korean restaurants. As usual we ordered seafood pancake, they make it thicker crispy at the edge. Which is suit our taste bud, and portion is good too. Just we wish there is more seafood added in . My usual order on the seafood tofu soup, that is my favorite and must order for any korean restaurants. They made slightly oily but the spicy level is just great. Very authentic i assume. The pork over rice is slightly sweet with the sauce. We are not big fans of heavy sauce, it would be great if the sauce is served on the side. Might not order this again. Next we would try their hot pot. Maybe winter when the weather is slightly cooler. read more

Personally I thought the place was just okay. I like that this was a small hole in the wall and definitely authentic. It's almost like you walked into a local Korean spot. They even play Korean shows on tv. Plus you know it's authentic if you walk in and the locals of the country are the majority sitting in the restaurant. Came here on a Friday and it wasn't bad. I am definitely a meat and rice girl so I went with the bulgogi over rice with veggies at a price of about $8. Not bad. I didn't think that this place was super cheap tho. Just normal for a hole in the wall prices. Bulgogi taste was okay. Disappointed it wasn't much tastier and was more on the bland side. Their portions I say are huge. I was a fan of the steamed dumplings. Although super watery, they were very tasty. Service was nice and polite. Our server was friendly and checked on our table couple of times. Location wise this place is in the same plaza as Izziban and has lots of free parking. read more

Ordered soondoobu , jjajangmyun for to go, and it was super small amount. You get like 3oz of tofu, tasted like ramen powder. Probably they use sesame ramen by ottogi.... Such a Shame.. not a legit Kfood place. Folks. Just get a instant ramen and add some tofu. That will be better deal. Jjajangmyun.. I am sure they use ready to eat instant pack as well. read more

Very authentic! We lived I. Seoul for 3 years and I have to say the food, decide (down to three utensils and dish ware) brought me back to that time! I definitely recommend Minji's Cafe!! read more

No frills no fancy plating or fancy decor. This means no fancy prices either. It's just really good simple authentic Korean food. Bonus - there were some menu items I hadn't see at other restaurants (for ex the soybean paste soup which is different from the tofu soup). My preference is still the tofu soup but I'm always happy when I can try new things. I would come back to explore the menu some more for sure. read more

Nothing good here! I have ate over 30 Korean restaurants in Jersey and Florida but this place totally different Korean, I would never recommend. read more

Minji's Cafe is definitely a hole in the wall restaurant! The food was delicious and came out pretty quickly. The dumplings were fresh and not too greasy. The rice cakes were chewy and were way better than Sushi Yoshee in Boca Raton and a korean fried chicken place in Orlando. The spicy pork on rice was delicious, but the Bulgogi wasn't as flavorful. However, the person attending us was sweet and the atmosphere of the place definitely gave off a traditional Korean house-like setting. Instagram: @nostalgicnibbles read more

There's not a lot of selection for Korean here but I had been wanting to try this place out for a while! It's not close to me, and the sign is really inconspicuous for some reason, but I saw the Korean name and that's how I found it haha I ordered the soybean tofu soup and my omma got the regular bibimbap. I was super disappointed they didn't have Kongguksu, which is my favorite Korean dish, but alas, beggars can't be choosers! The dishes were all really great and portioned right. Their bibimbap had great ingredients, not just normal stuff like broccoli or carrots, but real Asian ingredients. The banchan though! definitely did not disappoint!! The prices were about equal to what I paid back in ATL and we were definitely stuffed. the owner was super nice and really enjoyed our meal :) read more

This place was a nice surprise. Came here based on yelp reviews and my bf was craving dolsot. The restaurant was very clean and the chalk art on the walls was impressive. We had steamed dumplings which were very good and dolsot (hot pot) with spicy pork. The dolsot was legit and still sizzling when it came to the table. The rice got nice and crispy on the bottom of the bowl which I love. All in all it's a cute little strip mall restaurant with excellent Korean food. Will probably try the ramen next time. read more

Minji's Cafe - Dolsot with spicy pork yummmm - Korean Near Me - Lauderhill, Florida

Honest, authentic, hole-in-the-wall Korean food joint. This is THE place to take care of any of your cravings in South Florida. Their food tastes fresh and homemade without any traces of msg, comparable to my mom's or my own cooking. They have a variety of everything from dukbokki, jajangmyun, soondae, jjampong, donkatsu, gamjatang, soondubu, dwenjang chigae, and kimchi chigae. Refer to my crude pics of the menu. If you like Korean food you'll love this place, especially considering the other options. I'd rather drive 40 miles to Minji's than be offered a free $100 meal at any restaurant in Miami. Minji passes Mike's Asian restaurant test. If you walk in and you don't see any Asians, turn around and RUN. They had 100% Korean diners throughout the night. (This is not true for Gabose) They're open Mon-Sat 12pm-10pm. read more
