    Soon Tofu Jjigae Combo
    Dylan B.

    Came here last month with my partner's family who were visiting and wanted to try some local eats. Tang Jip was a good choice considering the nice location, good price, and good reviews we saw. The restaurant is very nice and spacious, with a lot of booth and table seating inside and quite a bit of outside seating with an overhang for those sunny days. This was great for us because we also had a dog with us. However, we did have a few issues prior to us ordering and getting our food. First, while our party had already arrived and talked to one of the hosts, they went back inside and didn't get us menus, plates, bowls, napkins, etc. to set up a table until about 10 minutes later when we just decided to pick one. We also asked to turn on one of the heaters near our table since it was evening and getting chilly, and it took a bit of time (our food was already coming out by this point) to get that up and running. Lastly, while those I can chock up to being minor issues at worst, there was a weird interaction regarding getting some free drinks that they advertised in a exchange for a Yelp review. When we said we already checked in online and would do a review after, they insisted we do it then and there for the deal and one of the waiters actually stood and watched us (to make sure we did it?) and that we specifically gave 5 stars before our meal, which we felt pressured to do by that point (which I ultimately deleted afterwards before doing this re-review). It's a shame that there was that offputting moment in a otherwise great meal. While the waiters told us that the set combos they advertised were specifically meant for one person, they were more than enough for 2/3 to share and getting 2 sets for our table of 5 + an appetizer had us stuffed. The SoonTofu stew was hot and hearty while the bulgogi was nicely charred and they gave a ton to eat. This + the amount of banchan, which to their credit gave us more of, was delightful. A dinner for 5 being less than $100 is a great value in these times where it's harder to justify eating out at all. Ultimately the food made up for a strange beginning and would still recommend this as a great dinner spot.

    Kimchi Fried Rice
    Stephanie T.

    Hubby and I had been meaning to try Tang Jip ever since it replaced Bowl'd and finally had a chance yesterday at lunch with some friends. The staff working here are Korean so I knew the food was going to be good and authentic. You don't interact with the staff much because there's a tablet for ordering. We ordered their rose tteokbokki, soy garlic chicken wings, galbijjim, seafood pancake, and kimchi fried rice. The food came out piping hot and fresh! We agreed that the kimchi fried rice was the star, but I also loved their rice cakes, both in the tteokbokki and galbijjim. The texture was perfectly chewy and I really enjoyed the rose tteokbokki sauce. I wasn't a big fan of the wings, the flavor was okay but the one I ate was a bit dry. The seating for me was a little uncomfortable because I sat on the side of the table with booth seating. It wasn't long enough for me to sit comfortably so if I return, I'll likely ask for a table with normal chairs.

    Banchans
    Mimy P.

    My partner and I ordered the Galbijim with cheese. They blow torch the cheese in front of you. The meat was juicy, sweet and I liked the chewy rice cakes and veggies that came with the galbi. We had a selection of six banchans and my partner's favorite was the sweet potato salad. Service was attentive and ambiance was lovely. Overall, I recommend this place for people who want Korean food but not BBQ.

    Combo Tang

    Came on a Saturday night and they were pretty packed inside. Since they rebranded from Bowl'd, it seems like they cut down the menu a lot. The spicy pork bulgogi was more sweet than spicy -almost like a Chinese sweet and sour pork and overly saucey. Husband liked the combo tang (season to taste). Soon Dubu was standard fare. Tdeokkbokki was probably the best dish. There's tablets on the table for ordering and requesting your check-which I can see saves extra staffing-but it left us waiting awhile for our check and for water. Otherwise 4 stars due to lack of other Korean options in Alameda. Would probably come back to try a lunch special.

    Soy wings
    Jenny B.

    My cousin and I ordered japchae, tteokbokki w/ cheese, and the soy chicken wings and everything was amazing. My favorite was the japchae and tteokbokki with cheese Service was quick and servers were friendly. The restaurant played k-pop which I enjoyed as well and the music wasn't overpowering.

    Lunch menu

    Stopped by for a late lunch after hearing how good the food is. Pretty busy but the servers were friendly and quick. I ordered the lunch Bento Box with Bulgogi. Food came out quickly and the serving size was pretty decent. Bulgogi was tasty and had a nice assortment of sides. Liked the fried gyoza too. I'll be back next time to try out the other menu options.

    Yangnyeom Gejang
    Kyra K.

    Tang Jip is where my companion took me for my birthday lunch. I've always told him I regretted not trying spicy raw marinated crab when I was in South Korea. He wanted to take me here to try it since he knew I was curious. We came to this location of Tang Jip on a weekday afternoon. I can't speak much for the inside since we sat outside with my pup. But the inside seemed pretty spacious and modern. The outside was breezy and decent amount of space between tables. They took good care of my pup but had limited interactions with us in terms of checking on us. The food came out staggered. We shared the Kimchi Pancake, Pork Bulgogi, and Yangnyeom Gejang. The kimchi pancake was good, tasted typical to others. The bulgogi was also tasty, flavorful, spiced, and well cooked. Now for what I was most excited about, the crab! It was so spicy and well flavored. The texture was super soft almost like jelly. It was hard to wrap my head around but it tasted great with rice. Companion and I both agreed we were fans of the portion size and left stuffed! Tang Jip took over Bowl'd and is a great spot for Korean food in Alameda. Located in South Shore there's plenty of parking. Happy I got to try a new food and celebrate with my companion here.

    Combination Soon Tofu
    Allison H.

    I am happy they opened one of this Korean restaurant in this plaza! I quite enjoyed their food and the comfortable seating. The servers were kind and patient. The food arrived hot and delicious. I ordered the Galbitang, Kimchi Fried Rice, Combination Soon Tofu, Korean Fried Chicken (soy) and Bossam (small). My favorite dish was the Bossam. I made a lettuce wrap with the pork belly, veggies, sauces and kimchi banchan and it was A-mazingg!! I liked the soy garlic flavor of the fried chicken but I thought the chicken was a tad bland on the inside. Perhaps more sauce was needed on the chicken. I loved the complimentary banchans! The pickled cucumber and eggplant were my fav! Highly recommend! Great selection of food! Great service! There is plenty of parking. It's a great place to sit down to eat after shopping.

    Spoiled vegetables

    Came here for dinner this evening. I've been here several times before and decided to bring my niece to try it. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with tonight's experience. The staff was not friendly, the service was slow, and the server was not attentive. That wasn't all. I ordered half an order of bossam, but was given half an order of jokbal instead. I didn't make a big fuss because I had wanted to try the dish eventually, so I decided to accept the order rather than complain. Secondly, the server brought us lettuce that was visibly half-rotten. I asked for a new batch, but it made me wonder how something like that could be served in the first place. Is there no quality control? Third, I asked for additional side dishes, but they were forgotten and weren't brought out until I asked a second time. What was most disappointing was the attitude throughout the meal. We were very polite and repeatedly said thank you whenever our food and dishes were brought out, yet we were met with stone-cold expressions and glares, with little to no response. Overall, this experience left me very disappointed. I've been here several times before, but after tonight's experience, I will not be returning or recommending this restaurant.

    I've been to Tang Jip a few times since their change of ownership. Employees have turned over but the food and service has been maintained and improved upon. We always get the Bossam, the Spicy Tofu Soup and the Spicy Pork. Occasionally we'll get the Cheese Corn and The Banchan has also improved with the addition of Eggplant! Also a free fountain soda with Yelp Check-In. My goTo place in Alameda for Korean food...actually there's only two place in Alameda.....

    Dolsot Bibimbap
    Samantha J.

    Ordered Dolsot Bibimbop via DoorDash. I was pleased with the presentation and how it arrived. The beef was savory and the egg was cooked perfectly and I love they packed banshan. My only feedback is that the rice did lack a bit of seasoning and was a bit too overcooked. I think this is something I should have ordered at the restaurant vs takeout. Overall I thought this was tasty and a good value!

    Dolsot Bibimbap
    Raymond Y.

    I grew up in Alameda and this has always been one of my staples in South Shore. I've always defaulted to getting the bibimbap with beef...and it never misses! Really solid portions and I loved how fresh all the ingredients tasted (bean sprouts, sliced cucumber, mushrooms, carrots, pickled veggies, etc). We also got the seafood pancake (with real pieces of squid) which was also so incredibly delicious (and may have become my favorite), but it was a little more oily than I'd have liked. Make sure you eat some of the bonchon as well (my fav was the fish cake + kimchi) The staff was so nice + the ambiance of the restaurant felt very modern. Definitely will be back!!

    Great korean food, this is our go to spot for tofu soup and korean food cravings. Located in the south shore center making parking easy. Service is great and the ambiance is family friendly. Great for a casual hang out spot

    Overview: my new favorite place for banh mi that's close to home, large portions and great flavor…read more ---- We were taking a walk around Webster and found this place next to an ice cream place that I like. Lemongrass Pork $12 - we added a fried egg $2 extra so the sandwich ended up to be $14 - it has all the typical accompaniments like mayo, daikon, carrots, cucumber, jalapeño, cilantro - this sandwich also came with pate (liver spread) which is one of my favorite additions - the portions are filling - the egg was a good add on but I probably wouldn't do it again, it only can with one fried egg in the middle which was delicious but it's expensive and there was only one so when we got to the ends of the sandwich there was no more egg ---- Notes: - street parking (metered) and residential parking is close by but you might have to walk a few blocks on busy days - we walked from the Saturday Farmers' Market but I love how walkable Alameda is, the walk was quite nice - inside and outside seating available, the inside is very small with only 2 tables, the ambiance isn't super appealing to dine-in - we ordered it to-go but there you can definitely dine-in to eat, most people also ordered to-go and for pick-up - the food took a little bit of time to come out bc they were so popular! Lots of to-go and online orders being picked up when we were waiting! ---- Overall: authentic banh mi without having to leave our little island, filling portion, great flavor

    First time trying Mango and Mint…read more I ordered the Lemongrass Chicken Banh Mi Sandwich, and it was excellent. The bread was perfectly crunchy without being hard or sharp, which can sometimes cut your mouth. The chicken was juicy, tender, and packed with rich lemongrass flavor. The fresh, crunchy vegetables and tasty sauce rounded it out nicely. I'd definitely recommend trying this sandwich, and I plan to come back to explore their other dishes.

And it wasn't until quite a bit into the meal when the dishes started coming fast and hard. And next thing we knew, the table was piled high with food that all seemingly arrived at once. The portions were pretty sizable, and the food quality overall good to acceptable. They have a pretty large menu, so there is no shortage of options to choose from. Parking is available in their private lot, which is a huge plus.
