Classic Korean-Chinese cuisine for great black bean noodles. Food tasted great and the portions were sufficient. I'd recommend getting the "gan jjajang" which has the sauce with onions come on the side. The ttangsuyuk pork was good, nice and crispy. Service is quick and you just need to let your server know if you need anything else otherwise they'll leave you in peace. Large inside with big tables and small ones so they can accommodate groups of most sizes. read more

Two families (11 adults) visited for dinner recently. Since Sam Won Gahk is under new management and likely has a new chef, I was initially worried the restaurant might lose its diverse menu, signature flavors, or quality of service. Fortunately, they have maintained everything that made them great - in fact, the presentation and taste of the dishes are now significantly better. We were very happy with our meal, though the service was slightly lacking. The waitress wasn't as attentive as we'd hoped; we had to wait for tea refills and struggled to place additional orders in a timely manner. To be fair, she appeared quite exhausted from a long shift. Nevertheless, we were very disappointed when she said 맛탕 (mattang; sugar-coated fried Japanese sweet potatoes), a usual dessert, was out of inventory. Despite that, the food was excellent. I highly recommend the following dishes we had for any family gathering: Yangjangpi (양장피잡채): Assorted Seafood and Vegetables with Mustard Sauce Palbochae (팔보채): "Eight Treasure" Seafood Stir-fry Gun-mandu (군만두): Crispy Fried Dumplings Sogogi Tangsuyuk (소고기 탕수육): Sweet and Sour Beef Yusanseul (유산슬): Braised Seafood and Meat "Three Delicacies" Kkanpunggi (깐풍기): Spicy Garlic Fried Chicken Samseon Gan-jjajang (삼선간짜장): Stir-fried Seafood Noodles with Black Bean Sauce Yachae Jjajangmyeon (야채짜장면): Vegetable Noodles with Black Bean Sauce Jjajangmyeon (짜장면): Classic Noodles with Black Bean Sauce Samseon Jjamppong (삼선짬뽕): Spicy Seafood Noodle Soup read more

New Management We visited here on a Sunday afternoon and I hadn't been back because several years ago, when I tried an old childhood restaurant, the food was not good. However, when we returned, we were told the owners changed, they added a few new items to the menu like the pictures seafood dish and the jjajangmyun was delicious. It wasnot dry at all, full of seasoning and sauce. The noodles were bounch and tasted fresh. Try some of their off the menu items written on the wall. Lots of fresh seafood and vegetables. Plus the sauce was delicious and savory. read more

Sam Won Gahk - Off menu seafood entree *ask for chili sauce on the side - Chinese Near Me - Bayside, New York

Love the food there especially the dumplings. the deep fried chicken and beef are to die for !! . .

My friend was in town and was craving for some classic Korean Chinese cuisine. I'm all down for the old school restaurant vibes but the food was nothing extraordinary. For a Sunday night, it was a bit slow. I've been to the Flushing location before and was told the Bayside location was better. Can't say I agree much but at least the customer service was alright. The tang su yook flavor overall was lacking for me and was over powered by the use of cornstarch in its sauces. It was like gelatin at that point. Jja jang myeon was decent. Veggie platter was saltless which is fine if you like to add your own table salt. read more

Warning - Horrible customer service and offensive management. On Jan 11, 2026 we had lunch at this restaurant. We found a long, black hair in our soup and promptly notified the owner. We expected an apology but were astonished that the owners accused us that the hair was from my wife. We were mortified. After losing our appetite, we left. Due to the apalling service, I left a very small tip. As I was getting ready to enter my car, the owner ran out and demanded why I was upset. I couldn't believe that the owner wanted to confront me for his restaurant's error. He asked us to look at their kitchen to prove the hair didn't come from his restaurant. My wife and I obliged and took a quick look at his kitchen which was a huge mistake. The kitchen was in disarray and God only knows the cleanliness of his restaurant and the quality of food he is serving his patrons. We were about to leave when the opener's wife grabbed my wife's hair in some desperate attempt to validate that the hair was from my wife. The hair that we found was long and black while my wife's hair is light blonde. We were outraged and considered calling the police. The owners have no sense of decency and customer service and was trying to place blame on us when they were clearly at fault. This experience ruined our day and here is fair warning that this restaurant is unclean and the owners are unfit to run a business serving food to the public. read more

Under new ownership/management Food 1.5/5 Service 1.5/5 Ambiance 1/5 In the past I wouldve rated this place 4 or 5* But after new ownership/management i don't plan on coming back. Been here twice since the change... the staff are the same but seems like they dont want to work anymore. Food comes out cold eventhough the place was empty. Ordered a lot of food to-go but gives issues about how you want things packaged. read more

I came here for lunch with my wife and her family. I am not a big Korean food fan because noodles and spicy food are not my things, But my wife says this place is good and I had to give it a try. And most of the dishes we ordered were noodles. I got a little taste of some of the noodle soups and thought there were okay. I thought the shrimp dish we ordered was good, and I enjoyed the side kimchi dishes. The service was as excellent as the food came out quickly and hot. Price-wise it's reasonable to compare with other restaurants in the area. read more

We entered from the back parking lot entrance. Don't forget to bring your vaccination card and ID upon entry. For a Friday night there was plenty of seating. We didn't have to wait for a party of 4. For appetizers we got fried dumplings and sweet and sour pork. Not a lot of places give good portion sizes for appetizers. I was impressed we got a plate full of dumplings. Not just 3 on a small plate or something like that. And they were huge chunky dumplings too. Fried pork was juicy and saucy. For main we got the fried rice and black bean noodles. Both were average but they fill you up. You start with the hot tea set and the small pickled dishes. The red kimchi was great and it paired well with everything. Can't wait to come back. read more

Used to come to this place all the time but alas they are just not up to par. Their jjajangmyun sauce is tasty but the noodles are so over done! Came twice to confirm it wasn't a fluke. Their sweet and sour pork was so gristly. But their lajogee (spicy chicken) was pretty solid. The owner and staff are super friendly and having a parking lot is nice but just can't make up for the sad state of the jjajangmyun . read more

Classic. Sam Won Gak -Bayside- is old school Korean Style-Chinese in all the right, delicious ways. The restaurant is brightly lit, and clean. Decor is 90's style Asian American Living Room - think lots of wood, landscape paintings, and usually some community program on the tv. So yes, not exactly romantic but it is nostalgic as if you're visiting your parents or grandparents home. Now, the service is no frills, but not unfriendly. Also, it's nice to see that employees seem long-term; which say's good things about management. This time I went on a rainy night so I ordered Noodles with Chop Suey Soup (Jjampong) because I really craved something with broth. The noodle soup definitely hit the spot. It was savory, not too spicy loaded with vegetables and some seafood (largely squid, shrimp, etc.). My group also ordered their famous Shrimp with Pepper and Garlic Sauce which tasted fresh, sweet and slightly vinegary. Needless to say, it was a hit and consumed in marathon speed. Their fried dumplings seemed to have changed- but for the better. They're bigger, a bit doughy, crisp and you can really taste (I think) the chives. Of course, all the dishes come with little servings of kim-chi, raw onion, yellow beets, and undiluted Black bean sauce. My family and I have been going here for years now, and though a lot has changed in the neighborhood, this establishment has been in a positive way pretty consistent in terms of food, service and management. Also, kudos for actually having a parking lot!- though yes, during the weekends and holidays it can get busy. Still, this is a place to try especially if you like good comfort food and Korean dramas (ever seen one where black bean noodles aren't eaten at least once by the characters?) read more

This Korean-Chinese fusion restaurant does Chinese food better than Chinese restaurants do. Their food isn't overly salty, oily, or with MSG. I.LOVE.THIS.PLACE. An ode for you, Sam Won Gahk. Oh chicken with broccoli, how thy flavors meld, In each tender bite, a story is held. The crunch of the broccoli, the savory chicken, A perfect harmony that leaves me smitten. Hot sour soup, a symphony in a bowl, Each spoonful warms my body and soul. Tangy and spicy, comforting and bold, A taste sensation to behold. Seafood fried rice, a masterpiece divine, Shrimp, scallops, and fish all entwine. Mixed with vegetables and fluffy white rice, A dish so delicious, it's like paradise. Sweet and sour chicken on my plate so grand, Crispy coated pieces that I can't withstand. The tangy sauce with just the right kick, Leaves me craving every last lick. Best restaurant ever where these dishes reside, Where culinary art does abide. Everyone should go there to savor the delight, And bask in the flavors that dance through the night. read more

I had the chance to visit here for lunch. They have a great variety of lunch combos to choose from. I chose the sweet and sour pork with egg drop soup and fried rice.

If you're hungry in the Bayside area, then I highly recommend Sam Won Gahk. read more

JjaJjangMyeon (Noodles with Black Bean Sauce), JjamBong (Spicy Seafood Noodle Soup) & TanSueYok (Fried Pork with Sweet & Sour Sauce) are the trinity of a Korean-Chinese meal and they do a quick decent job here. 4* Am so use to ordering this trinity without a menu, I forgot to get one for a photo or ask for their prices. But got dinner togo of 5 JjaJjangMyeon, 1 JjamBong, 1 TanSueYok for 8 people for just under $100. For much much easier mixing at home, like to rinse noodles in hot water to loosen them up, drain really well, then mix with the sauce. Located -NE corner of 219th & Northern -there's a parking lot in the back and back entrance into the restaurant read more

I came here for a special event, and there are private rooms in the basement which was very nice. It's a quiet and intimate place if you're looking to have a group dinner or celebration (e.g. baby's first birthday, bday celebration, etc.) The employees were very accommodating and attentive. We ordered the course meal and the total was very affordable (on a per person basis of course). The dishes were very interesting and there was so many different kinds. We ended up bringing home leftover for days! Although secluded, you could hear the chairs moving upstairs and it was awkwardly silent. The room had a very dark decor and it felt like a dungeon. It would be nice if they lightened it up a bit. I think some light music in the background would've made it a little better. This is the only reason for the one star knockdown :) read more

They need improvement food qualities. As well as they need renovation better interior designs

Been coming here for years! I order the same thing every time. Spicy seafood noodle soup, extra extra extra spicy and fried dumplings. I love to see the red pepper and layer of red hot oil layer floating on the top. They give your plenty seafood, scallops, squid, shrimp and mussels. The broth is deep and rich. Hands down this place has the best jjamppong in northern Queens! read more

We ordered a lot of food and they were all delicious. I would recommend you try it out if you are on the fence.

I came here on Christmas day on a spur with my family and family friends. I'm sure street parking wouldn't have been too difficult but as it was a pretty cold day, we just went for valet and the guys were super chill. When we went inside, the restaurant was bustling so I knew that this place must be good. As basic Koreans, we ordered many servings of meat and classic korean soups (jjigaes) and seafood pancakes (haemul pajun). All the food was really delicious and I honestly had nothing to complain about. The staff was very nice and attentive and the cooked the meat for us without making a mistake of overcooking them. If you're looking for a taste of Korea, you should definitely check this place out with older Korean people (aka your parents!) Highly recommend ~ read more

I've come here specifically for their jamppong "Chop Suey" noodle soup for decades . If you don't know what it is, it's basically a spicy seafood noodle soup. You can have it with no spice, mild, or hot. There are so many Korean restaurants on northern but I usually go to this one bc it has a parking lot. Their food is decent and delicious. Sometimes I also get the noodles in brown sauce, which is pretty good too. When I come with family, we always get the Sweet & sour Fried Beef. They also have a shrimp version if you like that. Also, the Chicken in garlic sauce is yummy. These dishes are meant for sharing and big in portion. You can ask for white rice to go with it. The beef fried rice is also good too. The kimchi fried rice is delicious but a bit pricey. One thing that I wish they have more of is the ban chan small dishes appetizers. I wish they had more variety like other Korean spots. read more

We chose this place because there's another with the same name in Flushing that is excellent. I was slightly disappointed. The black bean noodles lacked flavor, which might have been excusable if the noodles were at least hot. The noodles and sauce were lukewarm and even after adding red pepper flakes, it wasn't any better. Not that it was necessarily bad but it wasn't good either. The shrimp fried rice was alright. They had a good amount of shrimp in it. It wasn't greasy so I liked that. However, there's nothing that really sets it apart from other fried rice that I've had in other places. The side dishes of the kimchi, onion, and pickled radish were good. The kimchi was tasty, the onion wasn't spicy, and the pickled radish wasn't too soaked in the juice. The food came out in a little over 10 minutes, which was good since we were in a hurry. On the other hand, we were the only customers there since it just opened so I would think the preparation of the food would be better. read more

Having lived in Bayside for the last 12 years, I was always wondering what this "Korean-Chinese" restaurant was.. And 2 weeks ago, my friend took me here cuz she had a craving for Jajangmyeon.. Loll I'm like, sure..why not? Came on a Thursday afternoon.. It was dead. One lonely guy in the corner slurping down his bowl of noodles and huge plate of mapo tofu in front of him. Sat down, and we both agreed on ordering the same, a bowl of Jajangmyeon, and this dish, I forget the name, but it was sweet and sour beef, fried and tossed in a gooey sauce. Food came out relatively quickly. The waitress gave us a pair of scissors with our Jajangmyeon.. I guess to cut the noodles cuz they were too long. But I didn't. I don't know how I feel about a random ass pair of scissors going into my cooked food. O_O Um..no thank you! Loll The black sauce wasn't very flavorful, though I liked the texture of the noodles. It was very filling too, but in a sorta satisfying way. The sweet and sour beef, despite the unappealing gooey appearance of the sauce..was actually quite good. Had lots of flavor and I actually enjoyed it. Interior decor was meh..nothing special. Floors looked rather old and could use cleaning. Service was good. Servers were courteous. There is a relatively small private lot in the back with about a dozen spaces. Plenty of residential parking nearby. I don't think I'm gonna come back. I could make better Jajangmyeon at home.. :D read more

The atmosphere of the restaurant is nice, bright, spacious, and clean. It's located just close enough to Bell Blvd without getting lost in the hustle and bustle. Street parking isn't difficult to find. The staff is very attentive and friendly so that's a plus right there. Nothing to complain about. I went in for lunch and ordered the combo: seafood noodle soup and jajangmyun. I had been craving jajangmyun for a while but ended up loving the seafood noodle soup more because it was more sweet and rich in flavor. The jajangmyun fell short of my expectations and was definitely lacking in salt and if I may say so, was bland. Otherwise, the portion sizes kept me full for hours. Nonetheless, I had a good experience and would definitely go back just for the seafood noodle soup next time. read more

If you're trying to call in a take out order coming from Flushing they will repeatedly tell you they are in Bayside instead of taking the order. Called multiple times bc they just kept saying "HELLO?? HELLO? HELLO?" the 1st time while trying to place an order in Chinese (they speak Chinese). Final call I spoke English and they would NOT take my order and repeatedly said they are in Bayside and not Flushing. Had to give them their address for them to let me place my order the 5th time I asked if I can place a take out order. By then I was pulling into the parking lot. Would have left if this wasn't an order request for someone else. read more
