Doesn't look like much from the outside/ Still I'm very glad that we decided to give it a shot. We were patient because there doesn't seem to be much staff and it was a Saturday so no rush for us. There was one older woman taking and serving both to go and dine in orders. We ordered the chicken Katsu bento box, the salmon bento box, and also Korean fried chicken wings. Everything was delicious. Even the miso soup was tasty and there was just so much food. We sat and had a very nice, delicious lunch. Even grabbed a bottle of wine because they're BYOB and there is a liquor store a few shops down. We spoke to the woman who I think is an owner and she said she has customers come in from NYC and I totally believe her because it's that good and very reasonable. We will absolutely return. I highly recommend this place!

***this was at their other location…read more Even though the venue was small and there's limited seating, the food was so good. Best kimchi I've had in a while as well! The service was consistent, only once did we have to ask for refills for water. Food: we ordered the half and half raw marinated crab, bibimbap, abalone congee and fried oysters. Raw crabs: marinated and seasoned perfectly. We aren't a spicy loving family, but this was perfect amount for us that we could handle the spice. Our lips and mouths burned, but the good tingle, not the fire breathing 911 burn. lol Fried oysters: well battered and fried, nicely aromatic Abalone congee: perfectly textured and the abalone meat and taste was present. This helped offset the spiciness of the crabs. Bibimbap: not your average clay pot type, this was on a plate and with lots of green vegetables. Also delicious! The Bon chon was different and excellent. Variety of different vegetables, pickled and fermented. We enjoyed them all. FYI: there is a small parking lot as well

2nd time coming here. Small restaurant with a few tables. Thankfully when we came (Saturday…read moreevening), there was one table available and it was the same table as last time! Ordered three things: 1) marinated crabs, small size (5/5). Always a must-get here. 2) ddukbaegi bulgogi (4.5/5) - Thinly sliced prime marinated beef ribeye casserole with rice cake and glass noodle and mushroom served in a sizzling hot pot. Really flavorful and so good to have on a cold day. 3) ahjae ppyo jjim (4.5/5) - Braised prime beef meat bones in soy reduction with carrots, radish, dates, chestnut, rice cake and glass noodles. We got non-spicy. It came in a HUGE bowl. Definitely meant to be shared with a group. Took leftovers home and it was still yummy the next day mixed with knife-cut noodles I had at home.

As soon as I saw pics of the knife-cut noodles I bookmarked it. Ordering system: Kiosk. Every dish comes with one banchan of kimchi. Food is made to order. Here is what we ordered: - Fried Beef & Pork Dumplings - Clams Handmade Kalguksu Soup - Spicy Beef Handmade Kalguksu Soup The fried meat dumplings are some of the best I've ever had. I want to try it steamed next time. As for our knife-cut noodles, I thought they were better than the ones I had in Korea. The texture was not too thick where it's too doughy. It was slurping delish. I'm usually a slow eater and I finished the entire bowl faster than my companion. Lol. The best part of the meal was getting to chat with Grandma who is the owner. She is the most darling and it was such a pleasure that we got to meet her. We told her that her homemade Kalguksu (noodles) reminded us of our time in Seoul. I plan to come back with my son when he returns home for Thanksgiving. Service is a 10/10!! Grandma came by a few times to ask how we were enjoying our meal. You can tell how much she prides herself in the food she serves here. Location is away from the bustling center of Fort Lee. Street parking only, free on Sundays.

Next they brought soup and the fried rice with an egg on top. I'm not sure if this the correct way to eat it, I mixed the rice, egg and added plenty of kimchi. Just delicious and way too much for me, so I'll have a snack later.

We had a great meal at Busan Gukbap! We ordered the beef and tripe soup along with the soondae, and…read moreeverything was really good! I loved the broth of the soup just the way it was. I always appreciate how they give you salt and pepper on the side so you can season it to your liking. I personally don't think it needs anything extra, but my husband likes to add a dash of salt and pepper for more flavor. They were also very generous with the amount of beef and tripe in the soup, definitely more than what you would normally get at similar places in the city. The soondae was also delicious! It was soft and flavorful, and I really enjoyed it with the pieces of boiled pork. Everything went so well with the banchan, especially the kimchi and pickled radish. The restaurant is pretty small, but people seem to come in, enjoy their food, and leave, so the tables turn over quickly. It also seems to be a popular spot with locals, and most of the customers were speaking Korean, which gave it a nice neighborhood feel. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal. Good food, generous portions, and a comforting bowl of soup. Definitely a spot I would come back to!

Seolleongtang: The milky broth is warm and soothing, topped with plenty of scallions. The beef intestine and brisket were very tender. Jokbal: This was the standout. The platter was huge, the meat was rich, tender, and juicy, and the glossy skin had a great chew. It goes perfectly with the kimchi, the radish kimchi, and the dipping sauces. Service: We loved it. Our server kept checking whether we needed anything and refilled our kimchi and dipping sauce before we even asked. That kind of attention makes a difference. Room for improvement: The restroom could be cleaner for dine-in guests. Overall, it's a great spot for hearty Korean comfort food. We'd come back to try other soups.

However, this restaurant ( MIGAM) completely exceeded my expectations! Everything is made with high-quality ingredients, and they prepared my takeout order exactly as I requested. SPICY BRISKET JJAMPPONG It's a spicy dish, but since spice levels vary from place to place--and being Mexican, I'm used to spicy food--I didn't want to take any chances, so I ordered it medium spicy. They hit the nail on the head! It was absolute perfection. The broth was rich, thick, and packed with flavor--delightful in every single way. The portion size is so generous that it will easily cover two meals, and I'm sharing some with my husband. It came with four sides (banchan), including kimchi, and I can honestly say it's the best kimchi I've ever had in my life--and I've tried Korean food both in Mexico and here in the U.S. I first visited this restaurant in Tenafly over a year ago when I believe they were just starting out. Back then, I met a woman who I believe is the owner. I am so glad to see they still maintain that same phenomenal quality! They cook with such attention to detail that I no longer have to worry about looking for another place to get this kind of food. Thank you so much, blessings, and congratulations on the wonderful work and dedication you put into preparing the most delicious Korean dishes I've ever tasted. See you very soon!

We most recently came in on a Friday night with a 6 pm reservation. Yes, we had to flag down one of the harried but cheerful women working here to place our order. But look around - there's not a white tablecloth in sight. You may have to catch someone's eye, and there's nothing wrong with that. By 6:15 pm, half of our order was on the table, and we were gleefully chomping on fried dumplings and pillowy buns. The small but clean and modern space was packed - packed with people, but also with so much happiness. Almost everyone was smiling, laughing, and joking as they tucked into this feel-good array of comfort classics. Jajangmyun, jjampong, khan poong, gochu japchae... all of these traditional dishes sang. Even a simple plate of sauteed vegetables was delicious. And everything spent just seconds between being finished in the kitchen and sitting in front of us. Is it cheap? No, nor should it be. The ingredients are of the freshest, including the seafood. The cooking couldn't be better. And this is no grimy hole in the wall. If it were a French bistro, you'd have no problem with the prices. So pay these fine folks what they deserve, and enjoy.

We used to come a lot !!! But the food seems to have degraded its quality, with no consistency. Quite a disappointment since there really aren't any Korean food in Tenafly... We ordered Fried Shrimp in garlic sauce ($29.99) and we could taste too much of soy sauce in the dressing. Quite a small quantity for this price too. My usual go to place is Tae Myung Guan in Palisades Park, and Ah Woo Rang for a large groups also at Palisades Park.
