    Chili Shrimp
    Bee W.

    Lunch with my friend. It's been a while since we were together. The server was sweet and attentive. She doesn't like soup but tried some of the jjam bong. She liked it. It's a nice dish after a cold snowy day. She decided on ra jo gi. That suited her. I'm glad to introduce my friends to local Asian businesses. Clean restaurant and restroom.

    There has been a good influx of Korean restaurants around Denver and a few jjajangmyun (black bean noodles) restaurants. Yong Gung is mainly known for their jjajangmyun and for good reason. The jjajangmyun I ordered is a new menu item that is spicy and contains seafood. It is easily for 2-3 people. I would highly recommend trying it out if you want a little bit of a different twist on jjajangmyun. The tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork) was nice and crispy without too much batter. Make sure to ask for the sauce on the side so it doesn't get soggy! The service was great including the owner and waitress. The waitress was very attentive and made sure our waters were always full. The owner came by multiple times to ask if everything is ok and if we need anything else. Thanks! I'll make sure to come by again when I get my craving for jjajangmyun which will probably be soon!

    This place was decent. I'm really spoiled when it comes to Korean food because I grew up in an area with 100's of Korean restaurants. But this place was almost as good as stuff in my hometown. We tried jjajjang myun, tangsooyook and ddeokbogi

    Kkan Pung Shrimp
    Ed D.

    This place has such good food for a very economical price. Their servings are larger and they don't skimp on the meats/seafood. Service is super friendly and attentive. We went there for Saturday lunch. Nice and clean decor with light music playing so you can have a nice conversation. We ordered the kang pang shrimp, seafood udong, chicken fried rice, beef jap chae. The udon was delicious with big chunks of shrimp. The kang pang shrimp was sooo tasty with just the right amount of sweetness and crispiness. The chicken fried rice came with a side of beans with sauce that I've never tasted before and I've been to many Korean restaurants here and in South Korea itself. It was delicious! My friend thought everything tasted amazing as well!

    Noodle soup
    James M.

    Spicy seafood noodle soup had great flavor. Portion was enough for two meals since I had a delicious appetizer. Prompt service. Clean, nicely lit, furnished open restaurant. Excellent place to dine and unwind with a drink. Kyle is an excellent do all host, waiter, busboy, chef...owner!

    Portion sizes are huge here! The kkan pung shrimp is always a winner but we've actually never ordered anything that wasn't delicious! This is Korean/Chinese and while most of the dishes lean towards the Korean side there is definitely some Chinese flare added in. Service is great, they are always attentive and friendly. The restaurant is clean, open space and always have ample seating for any sized group.

    Pork Katsu(돈까스), Ja Jang Myeon(짜장면), Jjam Bong(짬뽕)

    DELICIOUS! Amazing service and incredible options. We shared the jjam bong, ja jang myeon, and pork katsu. SO GOOD!!! The soup was something you cannot skip. I would highly recommend this place and I will be returning.

    Seafood Dynamite

    This place is so good these days. Seafood jjambong and pork cutlet were the best. It was better than paiksnoodle!

    Chicken Katsu
    Liz C.

    This is a classic place in Aurora for some Korean-Chinese comfort food. It seemed like the go-to menu on the item was the Donkatsu (Pork and Chicken options). The staff are friendly, there is plenty of seating and parking, and the prices are reasonable. In terms of the taste, I think this place gets a 3/5 but considering how BIG their portions are, they definitely get an additional star. I would say that if you are ambitious, you can even save half of your dish for another meal or be super full for 1 meal. Overall, I would recommend this place for a big group of hungry friends!

    jjampong
    Jessica W.

    Great customer service. Very friendly server. Ordered a jjampong. The soup was yummy and had a thicker textured. Not watery like other places. However, not much seafood ingredients and the shrimp and mussel both had the shell on so it was inconvenient to eat.

    Jjam Bong Soup - I believe. . .
    Paola U.

    Had dinner here yesterday and was not disappointed. The server was friendly, sat us quickly and was extremely attentive. I drink lots of water and I never had to ask for more water. We got combo A that comes with black bean noodles, sweet and sour pork and a stew (that I don't remember the name of) the black bean noodles are my favorite here because they add soo much onion. Also ordered spicy rice cakes as a side/ app. I would say this was on the spicier side for someone who doesn't like spicy - I would not recommend. Almost forgot! They revamped their look and had a large projector with music videos. I enjoyed the vibes too ^_^ 5/5 because it is great value and always tasty. I would say the food here is always consistent.

    Spicy Brisket Jjam Bong Soup
    Veronica S.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants here in Aurora. I feel like this restaurant gets better and better. The spicy brisket jjam bong was spicy and so delicious. It was spicy but not that spicy were you can't taste the flavors. Is a most have! If you have been in Korea you know you need to have the Sam Sun Gan Ja jang and the sweet & sour pork is the perfect combination. The service is excellent! The waitress who got us the table was super nice and always with a smile on her face. The ambiance was very chill barely people at the time I went. Honestly if you are around Aurora don't forget to go around this restaurant. You will not regret it. Pure flavors! Amazing service!

    Kkan Pung Gi aka Korean spicy fried chicken
    Alex L.

    I came to this part of Havana on a Friday for lunch. Not much action was happening around the shopping strip and I was looking for any fried chicken. I found Yong Gong after being familiar with a couple KBBQ restaurant in the same area. The restaurant is clean and inviting. As I was seated the only other table that had patrons paid and left. I was the only one there for the majority of my meal and felt like a VIP. Granted, I went for a late lunch/early dinner so it was most likely past the lunch rush. My meal came exactly how I wanted and the portion was big enough to feed a baby dinosaur! My chicken was spiced perfectly with a hint of sweet and garlic. The chewy noodle bits (forgot what they were called!) were also amazing. The danmuji (Korean yellow pickled daikon radish) and onions were awesome too. Food and service was great and I certainly will keep this place on my radar. Price is a bit higher but the portions make up for it. You could easily split each dish up to at least 2 or possibly 3 meals!

    Came in on a pretty busy Friday night around 6:00pm. Street or lot parking! Seated quickly, service…read morewas great, and always clean. I am so glad that they are so consistent and have not changed recipes or adjusted seasonings. Ordered our two favorites - pickled pepper beef and mapo tofu. Then the string beans and a new dish - sauerkraut fish filet. The sauerkraut fish filet reminded me of the Vietnamese catfish soup but no sweetness added. Very good dish and will def order again. Also love that they have quality rice here.

    Decided to come here because I was craving Chinese food and heard good things about this place…read more Figured I'd give it a try. We ordered the fried tofu (with peppers and onions), orange chicken, fried fish fillet, and veggie delight (mixed veggies). The fried fish fillet was definitely the standout. Perfectly crispy on the outside with a light, tangy layer of sauce that added flavor without making it soggy. Easily my favorite dish of the meal. The fried tofu was also really solid and flavorful with just the right amount of spice. The peppers and onions complemented it well without overpowering the tofu itself. The orange chicken was okay. I tend to compare orange chicken to Panda Express (probably unfair, but it's my benchmark), and this one didn't quite hit that same balance of crispiness and sauce. I think if it had a bit more meat within each piece, would be better. The mixed vegetables were decent but not something I'd order again. They felt a bit drenched in sauce and didn't have much depth in flavor. One of the highlights of the visit was meeting an elderly woman who helps out when it gets busy. She mentioned she was the former owner. She was incredibly kind, and we ended up having a really nice conversation in Mandarin. That personal touch made the experience even more memorable. Otherwise, really nice venue with lots of space and tables. Waiters always refilled my water, which is a good plus. Also gave me fresh rice when I took the leftovers to go. Overall, a solid meal with a couple standout dishes. I'd definitely come back for the fried fish fillet and tofu. Will be back to try their other dishes.

    We went back to take advantage of the Mile High Asian Food Week (MHAFW), and the four of us shared…read moretheir scallion pancakes, beef chow fun, hot and spicy chicken, seafood & tofu clay pot, and the dried scallop egg white fried rice. The deal came with a free dessert to share, either a pandan cake or mango mousse. We decided on sharing and dividing the cake and boy, was it delicious! Just a few small bites to end our wonderful meal. As always, the service was very good and since we sat outside to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air, the ambient was perfect: not too noisy at all. Wendy Tong, owner of Chopstix Fusion, is a lovely lady who welcomes her guests with great hospitality, and her husband is a phenomenal chef who, not only can cook these dishes, but can prepare some mean Chinese traditional dishes. If you have not eaten here, it is highly suggested that you stop by and instead of smelling the roses, smell the cooking that is happening here. Your nose, mouth, and stomach will thank you!

    So I finally made it to Chopstix Fusion after seeing them all over my pages. I mainly knew they had…read morereally good desserts and their cakes are very cool to look at. However, the food was delicious. Everything was super flavorful. Portions are pretty good as well. My go to order at every HK Canto style restaurant is the beef chowfun. If it's good, I'll come back. And the beef chow fun was some of the best that I have had in CO. I don't know. There was something about it where it had enough sauce cooked in the noodles but also a good quantity of meat as well. It wasn't overpowered by onions like a lot of places do. For desserts, I tried the ube tiramisu and the pandan coconut cake. Both were very tasty and they're not too sweet which is code for Asian approval on sweets. Service is friendly and food comes quick. It is a small restaurant tucked in a corner so WiFi is nonexistent.
