It's was fine, nothing special. It was nice that it has meat bc they usually don't come with meat or once minced meat in the sauce. Good if ure hungry while shopping. The dining area is nice and spacious so it was easy to find a spot to eat.
Located in an HMART so it was more of a fast food restaurant if anything. Service was fast and the cashier knows what to recommend! Dishes are a bit on a smaller portion and has less flavor than I thought but for the price, you can't beat it
Tried 홍콩반점 Paik's Noodle, one of Chef Baek Jong-won's famous restaurant brands in H mart Westminster. My friend ordered the non-spicy noodle soup, and I got the seafood stir-fried noodles. I didn't even look at the price at first so when I tapped my card and saw it was $22 for one dish, I was a little shocked. BUT... the portion was huge. Like easily-two-people huge. I couldn't finish it and ended up taking leftovers home. The stir-fried noodles had great wok-hei and were actually tasty. But I do have one complaint: the wait time. The place wasn't busy at all, yet we waited almost 30 minutes for our food. I walked over to check what was going on and saw the cook stir-frying while chatting with someone. Not sure if he was teaching or just chitchatting, but it definitely slowed things down. That's something they could improve. Overall: delicious flavor, massive portions, but be ready to wait a bit.
This location is in the food court of the newly built and very large hmart. Service is fast and staff friendly. When your food is ready, your order number will appear on the monitor. The food court is pretty big and you have lots of other choices to choose from. Great place to hang out. The food is yummy! Jjampong is spicy, seafoody, and the meat makes it perfect! I'll be back!
The Jajangmyeon is decent, but I get yelled at for waiting at the counter while waiting for my food. I can't believe I got told off while waiting for my food. I went on weekday, after lunch time, a couple of weeks after opening to avoid peak busyness. The food court was busy, but not packed with nowhere to go. I gave my order, there was lots of space at the end of the storefront counter so I stood at the opposite end and was told to not lean against the granite counter and to leave that area open. This is another occasion where the single diner gets the short stick. It's not my fault the aisle in front of the restaurants are tight. It's not my fault that I'm a single diner and can't go sit at a table in the dining area while waiting for my food to get prepped because if I sit down and try to come back, someone is going to take the spot I just got up from for one minute. So the most logical thing is to wait by the restaurant because you are making me pickup my order anyways. My response was, "Where else do you want me to wait?" And they had no answer for me other than a wan smile. Jajangmyeon - Portion size is typical and the black sauce has good flavor and about the right amount of pork in it. There was more than enough sauce to cover the noodles and it came with a few pieces of yellow radish. The price at 12.95 is reasonable. You do not get any other panchan with this dish. A lot of people seem to order the noodles here. They also want you to bring your empty tray and dishes back to the stall you bought your food from. This is not a plus or minus to me, just wanted to give you a head's up is all. Yes, I know the food court is packed tight. But that is no reason scold someone who is trying to stay out of the way by waiting at the far end of your counter.
One of the better Paik's location in my opinion. It's located inside the Hmart food court and there's plenty of tables to sit. You order and then they'll call your number when it's ready. The cashier was kind. We went for weekday lunch right when they opened so there wasn't many people but our food took a while to come out. Their menu has a lot of items that are "coming soon" so it'll be nice when those items are added. Ordered the jjangmyun and jjampong. The jjangmyun sauce was the perfect consistency. The noodles were also a good texture. The jjampong was a good amount of spice and had decent amount of seafood. They provide yellow radish as a side. A downside to the food court in this hmart is that they don't have a water station, but they do have water bottles for purchase.
Located inside Hmarts food hall. its got center location, complete with a pole like literally in the middle in front of the counter, super awk awk. So.....its not well explained and the pics do not match what comes out exactly which i found out after. Sweet & Sour pictures with veggies like onion squares and looks like peppers for $24 is steep but gotta try everything right. And i asked if the dishes were a la carte or like came with a set like rice or side dishes and the lady i guess doesnt speak english to understand but i havent learned enough i assume korean to explain so ill just go with it. annnnd what you get is a heaping plate of light airy crispy delicious chicken strips, and a bowl of thick gelatinous sauce. And yes theyre all A LA CARTE, so its a massive like family sized portion, no rice or anything. Wouldve been nice to know beforehand for a single diner like me. Good thing i decided to be safe and order one first to see how bug it was before getting other dishes. There is unfortunately not a single veggie in this actual dish but its like 3 people portions so i cant go order anything else to balance out this meal so....welps. TLDR its decently good. but not single diner friendly. and very expensive, but every stand in this hall seems to be rolling deep. Wouldnt try again. Hall has plenty of self seating. Love all the wood tables and benches. Staff clean the tables frequently. Bring your empty tray back to the stand, it's usually a rack on the side that u slide it in on. Bathrooms at the end past the claw machine wall. Music is nice, collecting more songs for my playlist while im here. Parking lot is massive shared with all the other stores. Entrance unfortunately is nearest the exit only opening doors after the cashiers, so either stand awkwardly at the exit till somome exits and lets u in or go in through the front, snake your way around cuz of shelves to the cashiers and innocently walk through without any items as they judge you iono why, how else am i expected to get to the food hall placed at the exit but the exit door only opens from inside?
Located in the Hmart food hall. I ordered the #1 jajangmyeon to go and had to wait 5-10 minutes on a Saturday afternoon. Portion was decent for the price and the sauce was on the sweeter side for me. The food was not as warm so I had heat it up when I got home.
Excited to try Paik's noodle. We ordered their Stir-Fried Jajangmyeon and it was massive! Sooo good and spicy. They don't skimp on the seafood and the noodles were perfectly cooked. The serving was so big that we had leftovers for the next day. Will be back to try the other offerings next time!
Why can't they offer half sizes??? I just want a sampler! I need my tangsuk with my jjajjangmein! Paik's Black Bean sauce always on point!! What do the different qty peas on the top mean tho? Is it just random or is it differentiated based on what option you order? I have no idea... My 3pea topper was a #1 menu item so very basic.
I came here about 3 times and it's phenomenal - better than the ones I had in South Korea! You really can taste the 불맛 smokey flavors through the soup and noodles which a lot of other paik noodles fail to achieve. Highly recommend the stir fried black bean noodles 쟁반짜장 (it's the bigger size one and the spicier one but not too spicy at all) and the spicy seafood noodles 짬뽕. The owner and the workers are so warm and kind as well.
First time trying this dish recommended by a friend. I really enjoyed it. Will try the spicier one next time. Food court could use more tables. Service was quick and easy
My wife and I were seriously craving some bouncy, savory noodles, so we made a quick trip to Paik's and once again, they did not disappoint. Ordering was super easy, and the food came out fast, around 10-15 minutes. We got the meat jajangmyeon, regular jajangmyeon, and of course tangsuyuk. That combo is always undefeated. The black bean noodles were fresh, chewy, savory, and full of flavor in every bite. The tangsuyuk was the real star though, crispy outside, juicy and tender inside. Perfect with the sauce. We also love that it's inside the H Mart food court. Clean, quiet, and honestly one of the best comfort food stops when you're craving Korean-Chinese food. Only let down to this place is the mean face in the cashier area lol they will talk to you like you owe them money but still food is what matters! read more

For the price, the portions were rediculously small. The sweet and sour plate was half filled and cost nearly 25 dollars. The jjajjangmyun was what is normally a half portion at other restaurants. The only thing that wants undersized was The jjampong, which was spicy and the serving size was good. Looks like either extreme portion control and lack of communication with front of the house. When asked of the cashier if my jjajjang plate and sweet and sour plate were small sizes I was told "I have no control of the back of the house, if it came out like that that is your serving. I've been to numerous paik noodles in socal as well as internationally and this one albeit the food was tasty the serving sizes were abysmal as well as showing lack of communication with front and back of the house. Management should be looking to better training both sides both in portion control or plating and the front of house with customer service. My family and I are willing to try one more time but with tightening pocket books $56 dollars after tax for 2 bowls of noodles and sweet and sour pork from a food court, I'd rather go to a full service restaurant. read more

I drove 45 mins to the newly opened Hmart today (8/20/25) and Pak's Noodle is in their newly opened food court inside Hmart. At 6:30 pm, I ordered #1 and #3 for to-go. I had waited over 20 minutes to get my food (they didn't have many customers at that moment). However, when I got home, I noticed they only gave me one jajang sauce for two noodles (2 orders). The meat jajangmyeong (#3) should have its jajang sauce but they didn't give it to me. Instead, they gave me an extra plain noodle! They cheated their customers and they had no phone number available for me to call and complain. This store is absolutely terrible and untrustworthy! Unfortunately, I live very far away, otherwise, I would have gone back to the store to complain! Don't recommend them at all. read more
