    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!

    Jajangmyeon
    Howie C.

    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.

    sweet & sour

    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.

    Stir fried jajangmyeon
    Joy C.

    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!

    #1 original jjajjangmein
    Ann Q.

    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.

    쟁반짜장 stir fried black bean noodle
    Nak Yong C.

    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.

    Jajangmyeon

    Good food, Fast service, kind worker, and the food court is clean. It's not the BEST jajangmyeon I've had but it's still addictive.

    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

Our hosts ordered the cheese risotto- at first it sounded kinda strange to have it in a Korean Bbq place but wow!! It was so good. You MUST order this!

Will definitely come back again.

We also ordered the pork cutlet on the side, and honestly, the portion was massive for like a quick lunch. Crispy, filling, and definitely enough to take leftovers home! The banchan was simple but solid too, especially the big slices of cucumber and daikon, along with pieces of pancake on the side.

    Man was I surprised by this one!…read more Dawa Kitchen is a delicious spot nestled in the corner of the plaza. FOOD: The Katsu Curry is easily the best deal on the menu for sharing. For $25 you get a huge chicken katsu with curry pairing. The katsu was crispy, hot, and fresh when it came out. Very tasty! The curry itself is good, but doesn't have the same punch of flavor as other curry katsu places. Still good though! This dish could definitely feed 2 people. We also opted for the Ddeokbokki. This dish had great flavor and the rice cakes were cooked perfectly! Just as a heads up, if you are used to Ddeokbokki having extra's like fish cake and cheese, this does not come with it unless added. Overall, for value and flavor this is great! PARKING: Parking is tight in the complex and I would recommend getting there early just in case there's none available. WAIT/AMBIANCE: This place was packed when we arrived with a clear waitlist of 5+ parties. Try to get on the Yelp waitlist ahead of time to make sure you get seated in a timely manner. You can also look to make a reservation as that was also faster for me! Overall ambiance is good, and the restaurant was playing some Justin Bieber! DRINKS: For a casual dining place we opted to get soju and a beer as it was $10 per bottle. Also not too bad of a deal to pair with your meal! Overall would recommend this place!

However, service is horrible. They only came to deliver the food, but other than that, it's very hard to request them anything. We've never struggled so much in a restaurant just to get service. Obviously, when there's no service, there will be no tips. My rule of thumb is simple, good dining service in restaurants 20%, meh service 10%, no service 0%. There was a Korean waitress who chased after me after I left the restaurant and aggressively asked me to leave a tip. Calmly, I told her to rate her service and see how much she'd give herself before asking the customer for a tip. I also noticed how she tried to rush other customers when handling them the payment machine. I was wondering why but I figured it out. She just wanted them to enter the tip percentage as quickly as possible. She tried to snatch the machine from my hand before I'd even finished my payment. I've never felt robbed in any restaurant like today. I'm shocked to find out that some other Kaju customers were also in same situation. This is so wrong, or worse, it may even be illegal, and that's exactly what I told her. I told her she shouldn't make it look like I didn't pay for the bill and persistently stop me from leaving the restaurant.
