I've been here twice and the food is great. The restaurant is in a rough neighborhood and it's quite small so keep that in mind if want to dine with a group for dinner. The service for my last visit was unacceptable. Our server was rude when we asked for refills on our banchan and to get more dipping sauce for our seafood pancake. She literally put her hand up to shoo us away. We had to ask another server and that took 10 minutes. Yes, I timed them because it was that long. On top of that, they added a service charge of 20% because we had 3 adults and 3 kids. The food is good but there's good Korean food nearby so it's not worth my safety and peace of mind to come back. read more

Came here on a Saturday night around 7pm, party of 2, got the dumpling tofu soup and the kimchi pancake, and they give you all the banchan (total about $40 ish). This place is a very mom and pop vibe, it literally feels like you're in the kitchen of your Korean friend's mom's home. Pros: - DELICIOUS food. The kimchi pancake is the perfect amount of breading, and the dumplings in the tofu soup are fantastic. I alos love the fishcakes that come with the side dishes. - Pretty fast service - Lots of parking in front (people will say it looks "sketchy" but I honestly don't think it's bad at all, you're just in Hayward lol) - Very authentic - I think the prices are appropriate - the portions are HUGE especially the kimchi pancake Cons: - because it's authentic and delicious, it gets PACKED especially during dinner (this kind of stressed me out), so I don't think I would come again during dinner time and will try to prioritize lunch. - The sign-in sheet outside isn't super well-run, it's like a sheet of paper with random pen so you do have to wait outside, there is ZERO waiting space inside because the tables are packed pretty tightly together - I did feel like I had to eat quickly because so many people were waiting, so it's not really a meal you can dilly-dally and sit and yap for a while, they understandably do try to turn the tables over pretty efficiently. - Because of the size of the restaurant, it's really not convenient to come in a party of more than 4 imo read more

I came here with some friends randomly after pickleball and it was such a good win! I personally loved the japchae and bibimbap. They were light and very tasty. I left feeling not too heavy so definitely win. Service: They were so sweet and nice Parking: Plaza parking and street parking is available read more

Truly one of my favorite smaller family owned, independent Korean restaurant. I've been coming here for a few years to get my delicious comfort food fix--I haven't found any I that like on the Peninsula. It's a small place, not street facing and easy to miss if you aren't paying attention. Parking is not an issue. I have introduced several of my friends to this restaurant. When the weather is warm I like to order something refreshing and their Mul Naengmyeon (cold noodles) and/or Bibim Naengmyeon hits the spot. My favorite is the seafood jeon...it's not served pancake style, but rather long, flat and stick-like. The crispness is amazing and tastes so delicious. On another visit, our family feasted on the Budae Jjigae (Army Stew). It was definitely plenty for 3 of us with leftovers to bring home. All the food is amazing, definitely worth checking out. The owners and staff are friendly and helpful with recommendations. read more

Came for the seafood pancake and decided to try the army stew (budae jjigae). First thing you need to know - portions here are BIG. Second thing you need to know - the seafood pancake is LEGIT. Yeah...that's more or less what I got. Go...get a seafood pancake, and try your luck on everything else. Other than being able to feed 3 ppl easily, the budae jjigae was good, not great. The American cheese they melt into the stew gives it a weird after taste that I could do without. I'll come back again for the pancake and will probably try something else new on the menu again. read more

Ordered galbi, seafood pancake, spicy bulgogi, and mul naengmyeon. The galbi was smoky and flavorful, and the bulgogi was tender and juicy.

I used to eat at The Sister House years ago when I was little, but haven't been back in over 15 years. I have always had fond memories of this place, even with it being constantly packed and busy, and with limited seating. I finally had the chance to revisit recently, and brought my husband along. We went on a Sunday, so it was inevitably packed. The parking lot is as crusty as I remember, but that's part of what makes no-frills, hole-in-the-wall restaurants solid. The ambiance inside is loud and cramped, but we were here for the food. Service was decent, all the servers were so busy taking care of everyone, I can only imagine the chaos in the kitchen. And hands down did the food deliver. The price of everything was reasonable, and the flavors were delicious. I went with the dduk bulgogi while my husband went with the mixed soondubu (medium spicy). The banchan variety was splendid, and honestly I couldn't choose a favorite. I loved the creamy potato and corn mixture, since that was unique. Sometimes restaurants skimp on banchan portions, but not here. My dduk bulgogi was packed with veggies, rice cakes, tender beef, and glass noodles. The broth had a good depth of flavor, and was not oily or rich. My husband's mixed soondubu was also delightful. I had a quick sip of his broth and it had a lovely umami flavor. The spice level was perfect. We did both wonder, however, why his bowl didn't come out bubbling while mine did. Regardless, it was still steaming hot. Both portions of soup were served with rice, and we thoroughly enjoyed taking our time savoring each bite. I dumped the remainder of my rice into the broth at the very end and that was the perfect way to end our meal. We are almost never in Hayward, since we generally frequent other parts of the bay, but I would definitely return and try some other dishes next time. Everyone always orders the seafood pancake (and a ton of people were when we went and it looked so good). Of course if I had enough stomach space, I would have ordered that too. Well that just means I have to go back, haha. All in all, don't let the location or exterior fool you. The food is solid and The Sister House is definitely one of my favorite Korean spots in the bay. read more

Reasonable price and love the varieties of banchan! Two of us tried Galbi, seafood package and Seolleong Tang. Galbi is nicely marinated and tender. Seafood pancake is crispy and portion is big, perfect for sharing! Seolleong Tang is smaller in size, but cheaper than other restaurants. Honestly we didn't mind since we ordered other stuff to share. Portion is good. Two of us couldn't finish the meal and still had leftover for to go. Seems like lots of locals eating here and chatting when we visited around 4 pm. read more

I've come here for many years sporadically because I typically have the same issue: the service. Whenever we come here, the servers are condescending and constantly question our orders. I don't know if every patron gets treated this way and it's truly unfortunate. However, I will say that the food is consistently good and the restaurant itself has a cozy homey ambiance. If you're ordering take out or are okay with bad service then come on in. read more

I usually order from this restaurant through delivery apps, and the food has always been fine. This time, I happened to be in the area, so I decided to stop by and pick up my order in person. Unfortunately, the experience was completely different. The staff was extremely rude and unwelcoming, which was very disappointing. On top of that, the restaurant itself was noticeably dirty and did not look well maintained. I'm really disappointed because I had a much better impression of this place from ordering delivery. After this experience, I don't think I'll be coming back. read more

If you are craving comforting korean food, this is the place to be. The restaurant serves generous portions that are both hearty and satisfying. Their seafood pancake is a standout - the large portion that's crispy on the outside, packed with seafood and flavors, making it perfect for sharing. The galbi tang is also excellent, with tender beef short ribs and a comforting broth. I also love their banchan, they compliment the meal really well. The restaurant can get quite busy during peak dinner hours, so expect a bit of wait if you come during peak hours. read more

The Sister House - 47. Galbi Tang - Korean Near Me - Hayward, California

There's no K Town here but eating at The Sister House will immerse you in the authentic Korean food culture many of the locals know and love! Situated in a tiny, overlooked lot near downtown Hayward, The Sister House occupies a small shop with about 10 tables for small parties. There are plenty of parking spots as there's low traffic here (aside from the busy street full of commuters trying to get onto the highway or bridge). The place is typically filled up during weekend dinners but if you come early, you should be able to get seated right away. Upon sitting down, the staff will provide you a few menus and waters to get you started. Their menu is quite exhaustive of options for different dishes popular in Korean cuisine. Among them, classics like BBQ, tofu soup, beef bone broth, bibimbap, ramyun, and rice cakes can be found. We ordered a variety to get a taste but will definitely have to come back to try the rest! They also have a lunch menu that seems to be very reasonable priced. For those looking to drink, they do have beer, sake and soju options. Side dishes (banchan) - great variety including silky tofu, fish cakes, kimchi (good spice), pickles, bean sprouts, broccoli, potato salad, radish and a few others. Goon mandu - crispy potsticker-like morsels with a balanced filling of noodles, protein, and vegetables. Seafood pancake - very crispy, good portioned, and great balance of protein and vegetables. Combo BBQ - lots of protein and comes with a few options. We ended up with combo A, which included grilled marinated sliced tender beef, spicy pork, boneless chicken, and squid. Everything came piping hot in two separate hot pans. It said it serves two but it was definitely enough protein to serve four. Bibimbap - good size, extremely crispy rice, and colorful myriad of toppings. Could probably be shared but one hungry person can totally take this down! Seolleong tang - the soup was so cleansing and the beef brisket was so tender. It was served with glass noodles that served as another element of texture and also filled you up as you slurped up the soup. The staff provided quick and friendly service. The food came out fast so kudos to the kitchen staff and the food was super fresh and hot as the front of the house staff brought the dishes to our table. Couldn't have asked for a better experience! There is one bathroom and like the place itself, is tiny but serviceable. Didn't see a whole lot of people using it but it's available for patrons should the need arise. Overall, The Sister House is a gem in this pocket of Hayward and should you be in the area, is definitely a strong consideration for lunch or dinner. Regardless of your craving among Korean cuisine, this place probably has it and they do an exceptional job in serving quality, portions/value, and speed. You'll likely be paying a bit more but for all the food you are getting, prepared so well by this mom and pop shop, it is worth it for an occasional dine out. Welcome to the family, because next time you want a delicious home cooked Korean meal, come to your newfound sister's house! read more

Came here for the first time for lunch on a Saturday and we ordered the Buddae Jjigae & seafood pancake. The Buddae Jjigae was so good and enough to share between 3 people. We each got 2 small bowls out of it. I wish there was more noodle haha, but other than that, it was good. The seafood pancake was a lot and thick - which was good...the sauce was good to dip in. Love the sides as well. Also, if you want to take things ToGo, they will charge you extra for the containers. Service was fine. Only 1 Star down because of the sanitation. The waitress grabbed the top of our cup with her gloves to refill it with water...and I'm just not sure if her gloves touched other things. There's also a free large parking lot outside. I would come back here again! read more

Ate here on multiple occasions. Food is good but also, there are only 2-3 Korean options in this area - so either way, it's limited. Service was always ok - not great, not the worst until today. Especially when you have another Korean restaurant to compare it to now in the same area. We arrived and waited 45 minutes, with a party of 4 ahead of us and a party of 5 after us and another party of 3 (who arrived 30 minutes after we waited) after the 5. We were a party of 2. A table for 6 was open for 25 minutes and they didn't seat any of us. 20 minutes later, they clear another table and they finally seat the 4. The 6 seater is still open. They then proceed to seat the 5 at a different table that opened up 10 minutes later and the 3 at the table for 6. There's no rhyme or reason to how they did this. They didn't address it. The party of 5 even advocated for us and they just dismissed them saying they'll seat us later without addressing us. I also want to say, I fully recognize that they were 1.5 hours before closing and it seemed like they were prioritizing all of the to-go / DoorDash orders, but providing a time or some update is still common courtesy especially if strangers have to call it out while in line. Extremely disappointed as the only reason why I didn't go to the other Korean restaurant was because this one had Korean cold noodles. But waiting 40+ minutes, you're better off going to To the Moon or Moo Bong Ri in Berkeley. *We went to Tang Jip right after, full house - but got seated in 3 minutes, ordered and got food in less than 5. read more

The food was good. The meat was my favorite. Portions are big/decent. Right when I walked in, I felt out of place. Sometimes this could be a good thing. But I felt like my family and this other couple next to us, that came later, were treated a little different that everyone else. Not terrible, but enough for everyone to notice in my family. read more

We went on a Friday night at 8pm and it was crowded. The space is small but kept clean. The bonchons were served first and the variety was impressive. All of them tasted well. Then the kimchi tofu soup came and it was flavorful and comforting. The japchee was pretty good too, I don't eat beef so they made a veggie one for me. The kimchi pancake was also pretty good and filling. The meats - pork and chicken were well cooked and well flavored, the spicy pork especially. Overall decent place with good variety of Korean dishes. The parking was easy and service was quick. Would recommend this place! read more

I was craving Korean food while in Hayward and came across The Sister House on Yelp. It's a small mom and pop spot, so I decided to give it a try. We had to wait about 15 to 20 minutes before being seated, which wasn't too bad considering how busy it was. The place is definitely small and nothing fancy, but that's part of its charm. It has that cozy, mom and pop feel. There's not much space to stand inside while waiting, so just be prepared to stand outside to wait. We ordered the Galbi, Galbi Tang, Bulgogi, Seafood Pancake, and Japchae. They also brought out a generous amount of banchan. Everything we ordered was pretty good. The Galbi was flavorful and cooked just right, the Galbi Tang was comforting and hearty, and the Seafood Pancake had a nice crisp to it. The Japchae and Bulgogi were also tasty and well-seasoned. On top of that, the service was really friendly and welcoming, which added to the experience. I would definitely come back the next time I'm in the area and craving Korean food. read more

Great value!! The lunch specials are smaller portions so keep that in mind but you'll get half full on their yummy banchan anyway so it works out well. There was a large variety of different banchan and they were all super tasty. Tried three different soups -galbi tang, seolleongtang and beef soondubu. The soondubu had a good amount of tofu and tender beef and had a unique smoky flavor. I preferred the broth of the galbitang over the seolleongtang but both were rich and flavorful. I wish the meat in the galbitang was a bit more tender but overall everything was tasty with good size portions and very reasonable prices. For three soups it was $59 before tax (one was the lunch special price). read more

[IN A NUTSHELL] classic korean food, great soup, lots of bonchon [VERDICT] - APPROVED [RUN-DOWN] A classic mom and pop shop that had some good Korean food. I don't think that anything stood out from eating here but if you are ever in the area and want some comfort Korean food, this is a good spot. They do have some good bonchon dishes and I really enjoyed it. They also have a lunch menu that is pretty affordable. [SCORE & ORDER] OVERALL: 3.33/5 Seafood Pancake $16.99 (3/5) -The seafood pancake could've been a little crispier. The flavoring and the texture was there but I would have wanted it to be on the grill a lot longer to give it that crisp on the outside. The portion was super huge which I enjoyed. The batter to seafood ratio was also good. Seolleong Tang $14.99 (3.5/5) -Beef bone soup with bulgogi, clear noodles, sliced rice cake, and vegetables -This noodle soup was super good and delicious. It came out super hot and the flavoring was deep with the bone broth. The clear noodles was super chewy and was a great time for some good soup. I would recommend getting this soup especially at the lunch prices. Daeji Gul (Spicy Pork) $15.99 (3.5/5) -Grilled sliced tender pork marinated in spicy sauce -Honestly you can not go wrong with spicy pork since the flavor is so good and strong. This was not that spicy to me, and I wish it was more spicy. The flavoring was also deep and I would recommend getting this dish. [SERVICE & ATMOSPHERE] (not reflected upon review score): The atmosphere was super cozy and there are decent amount of seats. There were not that many people when we came for lunch but the atmosphere overall was good. read more

The food could be better, especially if you're looking for authentic Korean cuisine. I'm very particular about Korean food and have had better elsewhere. The service was average, but I think the staff could be friendlier and more welcoming. The ambiance was also not the best, and the restroom was dirty during my visit. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience, but there are other Korean restaurants I would choose over this one. read more

On our way home from Oakland to San Jose, we detoured to Hayward to dodge traffic and look for a simple meal to kill some time. We stumbled upon this small shop in a seemingly sketchy, empty parking lot and honestly wondered if we made a mistake at first. But once we walked in, the place was almost full at 5 PM--mostly with Korean-speaking customers, which is always the ultimate green flag. We were so blown away! This was easily one of the best Korean meals we've had in the Bay Area. It's authentic, salt-of-the-earth home cooking. The Soups: The Seolleongtang and Galbi Gomtang were totally legit. The broths had amazing depth and were incredibly flavorful. Seafood Pancake: One of the absolute best I've ever eaten. Super crispy and crunchy on the outside, and soft and tender with tons of flavorful seafood on the inside. The Banchan: They serve 10 different tasty dishes for banchan! Total score. Portions are large and the pricing is very decent. It's a bit out of the way if you're coming straight from SJ, but we are absolutely keeping this place in mind whenever we're heading up north toward the East Bay! Highly recommend. read more

Authentic Korean food! The flavors are spot on and everything tasted freshly made. It's a small, casual spot, so expect a bit of a wait if you go on a Friday night. Prices are a little on the higher side, but the quality makes up for it. The only downside is that the parking lot can be a bit dark at night, so just keep that in mind. Overall, great food and a cozy place for Korean comfort dishes! read more

This place is very popular. We came here on a weekend night and it was packed. There were waits of about 5-10 minutes for people who came after us, but overall, the wait was not too bad. We've been here a couple of times and each time the food is pretty good and it's a no frills and also very cozy. We ordered the beef short ribs, bibimbap with bulgogi, kimchi tofu soup, and sides. Overall the food is pretty standards Korean fare, and there are plenty of complimentary sides to choose from, which is nice. They don't offer to refill your sides or anything though. But the dishes have good flavor overall. The place is very small and a little hard to get around. The bathroom and the floors a bit sticky, which means they could use some mopping. There is a spacious parking lot out front as well. The staff there are not super friendly, but they will help get you what you need if you need anything. They charge $0.75 for to-go boxes, which we found it interesting because we didn't see signs about that. read more

Perfect spot for that comfort Korean food! The staff is friendly and the food comes out fast. Our party got seated immediately, although when they are busy they do hope you call before so you can alert the staff. Our party of 4 might have ordered too much. We started with the army stew, galbi tang, seafood pancake and the hot stone bibimbap. The army stew was full of kimchi, spam,bacon, tofu and mushrooms. The soup wasn't overly spicy and wasn't over the top salty. The unexpected star of the meal of the seafood pancake! It was light crispy and not oily. I always struggle with seafood pancakes being mops of oil but this one seemed to have the perfect ratio of batter to green onion and seafood. Get the galbi tang if you're in the mood for soup.its fall apart tender and the broth is so soothing, perfectly seasoned and the glass noddles make for a chewy bite. A spoonful of rice and the soup is heavenly. read more

이곳 서비스가 이렇게까지 형편없을 줄은 정말 믿기 어렵습니다. 들어간 순간부터 제대로 응대를 받지 못했습니다. 메뉴판도 제 손에서 거의 빼앗듯 가져갔고, 물이나 콜라 같은 것을 부탁하려고 손을 들어도 계속 완전히 무시했습니다. 식사를 다 끝내지도 않았는데 중간에 계산서를 가져다주고, 더 필요한 게 있는지나 음식이 괜찮은지조차 물어보지 않았습니다. 게다가 먹고 싶었던 음식들도 안 된다고만 했습니다. 그리고 계산할 때는 왜 팁을 안 주냐고 묻더군요. 저는 팁은 의무가 아니라고 말했습니다. 그런데 직원이 굉장히 공격적으로 영수증을 가리키며 팁을 줘야 한다는 식으로 말했습니다. 저는 서비스가 너무 안 좋아서 팁을 주고 싶지 않았고, 팁은 강제가 아니라고 다시 말했습니다. 그 후 직원이 제 앞에 앉아서 다른 사람과 한국어로 저희에 대해 험담하기 시작했습니다. 제가 한국어를 못 알아들을 거라고 생각했겠지만, 저는 한국어를 이해합니다. 저희를 구두쇠라고 하고 돈도 못 내는 사람처럼 이야기하는 걸 다 들었습니다. 하지만 그 직원은 제가 현금으로 팁을 남겼다는 건 몰랐겠죠. 현금 팁을 줄 건지 물어보지도 않았으니까요. 정말 최악의 서비스였습니다. 절대 추천하지 않습니다. read more

2.5 stars rounded up... We like and try to support locals as much as possible, so it saddens me to write this review. Quality/Quantity - Today we got the following: Banchan - Side dishes. 9 options Both my wife and daughter really liked the potato salad. My preference is always the "fish cake." We were able to get refills. #2 Seafood Pancake - My daughter and I liked this but my wife has had much better. Decent size. Good fry, but I would have preferred just a little more crispy. Not sure if you can tell from the picture, but very generous amounts of scallions. A way to keep the cost down. #8 Bulgogi - My daughter's order, I was the only one that liked this. My wife & daughter said it needed much more flavor and NOT just soy sauce. My wife also said the meat should have been cut thinner. I was surprised how little onions there were; many places fill the plate with onions to make it look like there is more meat. Decent portions (for meat). #31. Sauteed Squid w/ Noodle - My option; then to find out both my wife and daughter did not want or like this dish... This is one of my favorite Korean dishes. I felt that it could have had much more flavor, more spices, etc. Decent portions. In summary, if you like mild flavors, this is the place for you. Atmosphere - Very small local family business. Sadly, we got a table right where the windy door was. There were only two options as she would NOT let us sit further in due to our 3 person party. Then we noticed there was a HUGE fan above us. My poor wife had to keep her jacket and hood on while dining. Additionally, we did NOT feel this place was clean, sorry. The plates were sticky. When the table next to us complained, the waitress (I believe the owner) said that all of them were that way and it is what it is... Sadly, more than likely, we will not be back. There are too many options and too many great restaurants. Restroom - I did not even bother checking it out... Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm and on Sundays from noon to 9pm. Plenty of mall parking. Service - Poor, from the greeting to our seating. She struggled with helping the few people in the restaurant, then after we sat down, it got crazy busy. And this was a really late dinner for us! So that was basically the end of service, the end of what little service we got. In summary, due to her stress of handing the few tables, it was VERY reflective in her service, attitude, etc. We try to be understanding and patient, but as a customer that got here "first/early," we should have gotten "some" service. Lastly, we had to go up to the register twice to get to-go boxes and then to finally pay so we could leave. Some positives were that we were able to get a second helping of Banchan (long wait) and she refilled our water, near the very end of our meal. Price - $85, expensive for the experience. Included $1.50 for two to-go boxes; one small and one medium size. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since "forever." wishing you the best. I actually really like your website, you should link it to Yelp. read more
