    I was looking for new spots around Flushing and Woodam immediately caught my attention. I saw soy marinated crab on the menu and my eyes lit up, but it's currently out of season. I'll be back for that. What I ordered: - Collagen gomtang (Korean beef bone soup): Very good! The beef ribs were extremely tender. The broth was clean, clear, slightly oily, and overall very comforting. Must try! - Oxtail & short ribs jjim: Generous portion size. We went with the soy garlic glaze, which was decent but the flavor profile was very mild. I would have preferred more sauce for a richer taste. The meat itself was very tender. The banchan is unlimited, which we loved. The black fungus and spicy cucumber was my favorite. Servers were friendly and attentive throughout. Overall, a solid experience. I would recommend it and plan to return. :)

    Had an amazing dinner at Woodam! The Galbi-Jjim braised short ribs are a must-try; the meat is incredibly succulent and pairs beautifully with rice and their house-made banchan. We also loved the cozy, relaxed atmosphere and the highly attentive service. It's the perfect spot to wind down with friends over comforting food and cold drinks.

    So delicious! They don't take reservations but overall service is really fast and if you come for an early dinner (around 5) there will most likely be seats. They start you off with barley tea and water, and we also got the jeju mandarin fizz which was 5/5 delicious - not sweet at all, fizzy, with a nice iced sorbet situation going on at the top. Here's what we ordered - Lava rock cheese tteokgalbi (5/5): so delicious and not heavy at all if you're worried about that. It was surprisingly not oily, the meat was plump and juicy, and there was just the right amount of cheese. The dipping sauce was also surprisingly light and complemented the dish well - Collagen gomtang (5/5): wow this soup was so flavorful and had so much depth. The meat was so tender too - Gukbap (4/5): I loved the veggies and glass noodles in this one, but the soup itself was on the salty side, a bit salty for me Unlimited banchan refills and the kimchi was some of the best I had!

    Genuinely thought that Woodam had serious potential to surpass Parksanbal, given their slightly more expansive but still specialized menu, fair prices, and their really aesthetic restaurant. However, after coming back to dine, I can see where they're just falling short. My fiance and I ordered the spicy gukbap, which is the same thing we got the first time around. Here's the thing - it's still good, but there's something about the soup that just lacks depth of flavor. I can't quite figure out what it is, but the overall broth is just very one note. The toppings have also changed a bit - there's less beef slices and just more tendon. Banchan here is still decent, but the flavors were quite muted and didnt' help much with changing up the flavor profiles. Prices have gone up a bit since their opening a year ago; the gukbap is now around $18.50, or $2 more than before.

    Yuzu drink was delicious. Highlight is the lava balls; cheese meatball falafel breading. Soup is as expected, nothing special but a good option to have in the area. Decor and interior is great and classic, service is okay.

    Jeju tangerine fizz was a standout in this simple, delicious, attentive menu. Also ordered the gomtang. The banchan was good too- and kept coming. The kimchi is really tangy and tasty. Cozy, attractive interior. Has soju and beer.

    At this point, I have tried almost everything on their menu. It's like comfort food at this point! What I would always go back to is the lava rock cheese tteokgalbi which we always have to order 2 and the galbitang. The second time we went they were out of galbitang which gave us the opportunity to try the other soups. I had the collagen gomtang instead and it was good but I'd still prefer the galbitang which is more flavorful. But you could really tell that they cooked the gomtang for a long time because of all the collagen in the soup! Had the suyuk which was pretty good but the portion is small for a large group. We order the oxtail and short ribs jim for 2 as well and I thought it was pretty spicy. There wasn't much flavor of the meat because all you taste is spice, think this is the only item on the menu I would not get again. But def highly recommended! I wouldn't wait in line for this though and we were lucky that we didn't have to wait the first 2 times.

    The service and food is amazing! My second time coming here! I love that the menu is small. Easy to read.

    Refreshing decor for the Flushing area, for Korean food. We usually go to the more traditional places but wanted a girls date at a nicer place. The menu is very small - we almost ordered every entree available. The soups are very similar so we were not sure which was which, to be honest. They were all pretty decent, and good value for the portions. Service was very friendly.

    The decor is very elevated and well lit - for such a limited menu I wasn't expecting how nice the decor was. I came especially to try the collagen gomtang. There's maybe 5 dishes on the menu with 2 beverages, so easy to find what I wanted. The gomtang itself was served hot in the stone pot, with clear noodles and plenty of beef bone. It also came with sides dishes and rice, and is easily shareable if you're not too hungry! It was super warm and comforting and nice to eat all that collagen. The staff was very nice and accommodating - my friend was able to bring her baby and stroller with no issues.

    There's limited seating inside, so there might be longer waits on weekends as they grow in popularity. The Jeju fizz was refreshing and not too sweet! The sweetest part is the sorbet on top. The cheesy lava balls were my favorite item I had here! It had a great ratio of meat and cheese to breading. The soups were a bit disappointing in my opinion. It also came with a lot more tendons than I would've like. Id prefer more meat and less tendons. I think they should consider adding salt & pepper to every table like how sul lung tang places do. The broth was a bit bland in my opinion.

    I had higher expectations for Woodam after seeing all the reviews online, and it was very decent but it wasn't as amazing as I thought it would be. I've had better more authentic korean places in Flushing, though this restaurants was more nicely done up and more fusion. The galbijim was tender, but nothing out of the ordinary and there was just a bit too much beansprouts for my liking that it overpowered the entire dish and the meat even. Their gukbap was good and this was better than the the galbijim, and the lava rock cheest tteokgalbi was also decent. Still a decent place but with a pretty small menu and I hope they will expand their menu for the future for me to want to go back!

    my friend and I came on a weekday lunch and it got packed pretty quickly. There's bar seating for solo diners that I really appreciated. Their menu is limited and specializes in gukbaps. We both got the sogogi gukbap one original and one spicy. Flavor was pretty good and not too salty. THERE'S SO MUCH MEAT and the rice bowl is larger than the usual size at korean spots. My fave banchans were the kimchi and cucumbers - so yummy! IF you write a google review they give you two kimchi pork dumplings also. Would come again if I am ever in the area and craving gukbap.

    Been craving a Korean meal with 10 banchan since Ramadan. This is the only place that comes to mind…read morewhen I think of 10 banchan. Banchan: 3/5 kimchi- pretty fermented 3/5 eggs in soy sauce- decent 3/5 macaroni salad- not a fan of the stuff but standard 3/5 acorn jelly- all the flavor is in the chili sauce, wish they would add the sauce inside the jelly while making it 5/5 kkaktugi- my fave, less fermented than baechu kimchi 4/5 broccoli- how do they make something so bland- looking so flavorful? 4/5 mackerel radish- spicy, not a fan of radish that's not pickled but this is really good 4/5 potato strips- I love any type of potato 3/5 radish strips- wish it had less of the radish taste/smell but ok decent otherwise 3/5 mul naengmyeon $15- contains a slice of beef, standard, better when you add mustard & vinegar 4/5 cinnamon ginger tea- so nice of them to give something sweet to end the meal, has a bit too much cinnamon, so it's hella spicy (red hot) but really good otherwise 4/5 service was much better this time than any other time, really helps when you speak their language lol, I know they're always busy but they do need to pay a bit more attention as it's still hard to make eye contact once in awhile

    Tried this place for the first time, it was a Saturday night. We arrived around 5:30 table of 2 and…read morethere were 2 other large parties. It got busy, almost full house around 6:30ish. There's 2 waitresses and one busser, but I felt only one of the waitress was pulling the weight, while the other (maybe she's the owner?) mostly chatted with one of the table customers. I felt bad for our waitress she was so busy with fulfilling takeouts + dine ins and the dishes require a lot of servicing table side. She couldn't catch 1 second of break :( Food wise, we got their 2 person combo of spicy pork gamja tang and spicy rice cake which came with the steamed egg. Everything was so good, egg was extra fluffy, rice cake was delicious and the meat came right off the bones. They take a good variety of side dishes. My partner wasn't a fan of the gamja tang but due to feeling it's a hassle to eat meat with bones, so those who fee sim may agree. We also asked for the fried rice after we finished the gamja tang, for 2 servings I think it was $4.75 or something. I really enjoyed it but I guess I like scorched rice, also something my partner doesn't enjoy so those we feel sim just note. Environment feels very old school, well worn. Feels cozy. It can get loud very quickly on a Saturday night as this place seems to be a hit for large parties. Since the wait staff is short handed, expect a bit of a wait for things. Don't come if you're in a rush.

    I'm pretty sure I discovered this spot long before Anthony Bourdain did! It was featured in Parts…read moreUnknown Season 9, Episode 4 (Queens), where he dined here with chefs Josh Smookler and Cosme Aguilar. Geo Si Gi is highly known for their signature gamjatang (spicy pork bone soup). Ordered the Gamjatang & Grilled Mackerel Set - $52.95 (for 2) The gamjatang is perfectly spiced - bold and warming without overwhelming heat (and trust me, my spice tolerance is low!). Instead of the usual red kimchi, they load it with long strips of green napa cabbage, cut right before your eyes before serving. Some bean sprouts, watercress on top, with tender potatoes, chewy rice cakes, and massive pork bones that fall right off - so meaty and flavorful. Served with a side of sweet mustard sauce. Pure comfort on a cold day. The grilled mackerel was enormous and incredibly plump - way bigger than expected! As an oily fish, it's rich and satisfying, but we barely made it through a third. If you're a mackerel fan like me, it's a must-order. . Banchan were simple and homey: nothing flashy, just solid classics. Bonus: it comes with fluffy steamed egg (jjim) that rounds out the meal perfectly. I can eat an entire bowl of rice with just the steamed egg . This set was massive for two - we left with about 1/4 of the soup and 2/3 of the fish! Pro tip: Save some broth and ask them to make fried rice with it at the end. Game-changer. . Highly recommend for hearty, soul-warming Korean food in Flushing!

The inside is casual,…read moreand our waitress, Jane, was extremely friendly and helpful from refilling banchan to cooking meats and otherwise. A couple of us shared a $13 bottle of the green grape flavor of Chum Churum, a soju. In terms of banchan, there was a bunch. Everyone got a cold and refreshing cabbage soup as well as a very tasty version of Braised Tofu/Dubu-jorim/두부조림. Once we ordered, we also got a bunch of other banchan, including cabbage, radish, and cucumber Kimchi, broccoli and cauliflower Namul, Marinated Mushrooms/Beoseot Bokkeum/버섯볶음, Anchovies With Peanuts/Myeolchi Bokkeum/멸치볶음, and Potato/Gamja Salad/감자샐러드. One of the other things brought out was a pretty tasty version of Raw Soy Sauce Marinated Crab/Ganjang-Gejang/간장게장. Most of these were refillable. The first actual thing that arrived was something that I can't eat, the $22.99 Seafood Pancake/Haemul Pajeon/해물파전. I have a cephalopod allergy, or in other words, anything with tentacles, so I avoid squid and octopus, and seafood pancakes always contain one of those two. Everyone else enjoyed it, though. The pajeon I could eat was the Kimchi Jeon/김치전 for a dollar less. It was pretty tasty, though I prefer other spots that had a bit more of a crisp. Next was one of their signatures, the grilled duck. Going from online reviews, we went with the non-spicy version, as people prefer it, as the spicier marinade overpowers the duck. This was the $29.99 Sang Ori Gui/생오리구이. The sliced duck was on a hot, sizzling plate, with there also being a lot of grilled onions and scallions. The duck had a mix of pieces, ranging from fatty to less so, and had a nice mix of textures. This was easily one of my favorites, though I liked it even more when paired with the ssamjang that arrived with the BBQ, as the sauce balanced the light fattiness. Arriving at a similar time was the last thing I couldn't eat, the Spicy Stir-Fried Baby Octopus on Iron Plate/Jjukkumi Cheolpan Bokkeu/철판쭈꾸비볶음, for $30.99. I couldn't try the octopus, but the portion was plentiful, and I had a bit of the noodles on the bottom after making sure there were no tentacles, as well as trying the sauce. The sauce was tasty, spicy, and very flavorful. We went with two of the Korean BBQ meats, one beef and one pork. My preference of the two was surprisingly the $49.99 Charcoal Grilled Marinated Beef Ribs/Yangnyeom Galbi/양념갈비. This also came with two veggies: kabocha squash and asparagus. The beef was extremely tender, had the perfect mix of fat and meat, and had only a light sweetness from the marinade. This was absolutely delicious and very much worth the price point. Also tasty was the Grilled Pork Belly/Samgyeopsal/삼겹살, for $36.95. This also came with a few things, including cabbage and a large mushroom. The pork belly was delicious, being just fatty enough and very tender as well, with a mild chew. The BBQ came with a few extra side dishes. This included a tasty steamed egg/Gyeran-jjim/계란찜, greens, an onion salad, ssamjang, salt, and a small boiling pot of soybean stew/doenjang jjigae. They were all tasty, though nothing particularly notable outside of the portions being generous. Also, at the end of the meal, they gave us some sujeonggwa. Not much for me to complain about this place. The food was very tasty overall, and the service was wonderful. I would go back and order a full beef BBQ set.
