I come to this pho restaurant often, and the location inside the H Mart plaza makes parking and…read moreshopping very convenient. The restaurant has a decent amount of seating, including a patio area, but the wait can still get pretty long during busy hours. Adding your name through the Yelp waitlist definitely helps manage the wait time better. Overall, the food is consistently good. The dishes usually come out quickly, and the service is generally friendly and efficient. One thing I like is that if you order extra noodles with your pho, they give you a small extra bowl of noodles for free. The only disappointing part during this visit was the spring rolls. The noodles inside were undercooked, which made the texture unpleasant. I mentioned it to the server and they kindly replaced it, but unfortunately the new one had the same issue.

After watching Mr. Paik work his magic as a chef in many variety shows, I finally went to Paik's…read moreNoodle to give his food a try. The back of my mind is just the pounds of sugar in his recipes, but oh well! Located in a strip mall, with many Korean restaurant contenders, Mr. Paik has a pretty steady trickle of customers. You order at the counter and pick up once your beeper buzzes. I ordered a jjajjangmyun (black bean noodle) and tangsyuyuk (fried pork) to share with my sister. The portion makes sense with the price. I must say the best experience is to eat there while the food is piping hot. Mr. Paik hands down the best jjajjangmyun and tangsyuyuk that I had... the texture, sauce and everything was just perfect. They had other items that I want to try next step, like the stir fried jjampong! Reviews on their seafood jjampong didn't seem too popular, but ordered one to go to try and it was good too!!! This is the one time I shouldn't have trusted the negative reviews. Can't wait to come back again!

Lol. Shared space with so many high traffic shops like Hmart, Daiso, 85 bakery and Kang Hodong Baek Jong Kbbq. We were lucky to find a spot at 6:30pm on a Friday. We decided to eat out in the patio area since the weather was nice. The jjajang myun was really good. What stood out was how chewy the noodles were. And their yellow pickled radish had a nice tang to it, not too sweet. I also liked that they have 2 filtered water machines that dispenses both hot and cold water from copay. I will definitely be back to try their jjampong next! Hope parking is okay next time too.

I have been here several times since I live nearby. Like…read moremany have already said, for the price point, the food quality and taste cannot be beat. I've tried the pho, garlic noodle with chicken, egg rolls, and bahn mi and everything has been very solid. Service is perfectly fine for a small mom and pop shop. Whenever I'm craving pho, and I don't feel like spending $15+, I always come here since the bowls are a few dollars cheaper. I think they give a little bit less beef, but it's perfect amt for me, and if you want more, it's $5 for an extra serving. Portion is very good for the price, especially in today's economy, where hole in the wall restaurants are trying to charge $18-20 for below avg food. When i don't feel like cooking, this is my go to spot! Maybe I'll go today!

The space is relatively small, with only a few tables. The ice water, ice tea, and Shasta beverages are complimentary. To obtain the BOGO bargain ($1), choose numbers 7, 8, or 9 in the Pho section only. we assumed that we would order the Pho, Garlic Noodle, and Shaken Fillet Mignon for one dollar. When the bill arrived, the Garlic Noodles and Shaken Fillet Mignon cost $18. That dish was very  good, however the portion was very small. The pho tasted okay, and because there is an unlimited refill on the noodles only, we received three extra noodles for our Pho. Will I return back just for the food? Probably not. But make sure to get the Garlic Noodles and Shaken Fillet Mignon, and don't forget to leave a review to receive free French fries.

It felt family owned, super cozy, and the service was genuinely amazing from start to finish. We definitely over ordered (everything sounded too good ), but honestly... no regrets. Portions are huge and perfect for sharing, especially the soups...they were rich, flavorful, and came loaded with so many ingredients. Every dish had depth and tasted authentic, not watered down at all. They also brought out a few extra dishes for us to try, which was such a nice touch and made the experience feel really welcoming. The banchan (side dishes) kept coming and were all fresh and flavorful you can tell they put care into every part of the meal. And the fried rice? Easily one of the best I've had. My absolute favorite was the noodles with the black sauce (I think it's jajangmyeon?) savory, slightly sweet, and so satisfying. Overall, amazing food, generous portions, and standout service. This is the kind of spot you come back to again and again.

Had one today after long absence and it may be the worst bibim nengmyun I've had in all Cali. It was bland, mostly vinegar and beefy taste in broth/sauce. Perhaps it's due to it being portioned extremely small amount of sauce where most of noodles looked naked. It also lacked the signature crushed ice bath in the sauce that adds the cooling effect to the spicy taste. No such ice nor good sauce to make it the experience in warm summer. Service was great and dining area clean. But not coming back for just great smiles and warm service. Yoo's Place across street may have THE best nengmyun in OC.

My son finished the entire bowl of jjolmyeon by himself, and my wife really enjoyed the kimchi sujebi. For reference, I'm not usually a big fan of kalguksu or hand-pulled noodle soups. But this place is different -- the flavors were clean, comforting, and very well balanced. You can tell the food is made with care. My wife kept joking (half serious!) that this place feels Michelin-level. Highly recommend. We'll definitely be back.

Another person at our table got the donkatsu w/ rice; it was gobbled up pretty quick so I imagine it was delicious. The other 2 were in the mood for tonkatsu ramen - 1 got spicy, the other, plain.
