    Fish cutlet sandwich
    Ruby L.

    We went to Yoodon, and I have to say, I love this place. I'm always coming back. The menu is small, which makes it easy to know exactly what I want before I even walk in. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, but that's part of the charm. It feels cozy and welcoming. It really gives off the vibe of being a family-owned spot. I got the pork katsu, and it was perfectly fried, crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and really filling. We also had the fish cutlet sandwich, which was soft, flaky, and just so satisfying. The Yoodon cheeseburger was another winner, so good that we finished it way too fast. The lady who's usually at the register is always so nice, and she's is the one manning the floor, which adds to that homey feel. Water is self-serve, which keeps things simple. It's one of those spots that feels like a hidden gem. You can taste the care that goes into the food, and it's definitely a place I'll keep coming back to.

    This is very cozy place ran by a Korean family. They are very nice and friendly. My friends and I have come here a few times already and have tried most of the menu. The food is affordable and delicious. The sandwich combos all come with fries, and a salad. I believe their fries may be better than McDonald's fries. Cutlet combos come with salad and soup. This is definitely a place I will come back to often.

    It is a small Korean-family-ran restaurant with 5 tables inside. The price is reasonable and food is yummy. The Yoodon kimbap is fried veggie roll that I never saw at other places. Pork cutlet set is solid and good for the portion. Pork piece is crispy. Perfect for quick lunch or dinner.

    Shrimp Tempura Kimbap

    Got the shrimp tempura Kimbap, that and the soup was amazing. Would definitely go here again and try the stir fried noodles, that looks really good too.

    Went in for a quick lunch. One of the best tasting and enjoyable meals Ive had in a while. I had the shrimp tempura and bulgogi kimbap and donkatsu was so crunchy and perfect. lots of free street parking around the area.

    I happened to be in the area and was looking for something to eat when we came across Yoodon on Google. We decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad we did! This small, hole-in-the-wall spot truly delivers big on flavor. The food here is absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. We tried the chicken stir fry, the spicy shrimp tempura kimbap, and the chicken cutlet--all absolutely amazing. The chicken ramen was also rich, flavorful, and comforting. Honestly, I can't even pick a favorite dish because everything was so good! The lady at the front was so sweet and welcoming, which gave the place a lovely, family-owned vibe. For the quality of the food, the prices are really reasonable. This spot is more of a grab-and-go kind of place, even though they have seating available--it's a bit small for dining in, but perfect for takeout. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area. Highly recommend!

    Chicken cutlet

    Great Korean food at reasonable prices! My son and I both had the chicken cutlet- it was fried to perfection. Light crispy batter with a yummy sauce on the side. Came with soup, rice and salad. My mom had the bulgoki kimono- she is a light eater but ate the whole thing. My daughter had the spicy ramen and found the medium spicy was overwhelming. Only about 5 tables. Glad we got a seat. Would definitely eat here again!

    Spicy Shrimp Tempura Kimbap
    Sam Y.

    Street parking only, though I usually don't have trouble finding parking. Comfy small space. Service is friendly. The Spicy Shrimp Tempura Kimbap was large portion. Good thing I was sharing! It was filling with a good kick. The crunch adds great texture. The Beef Udon is flavorful. There is a good amount of toppings. The fresh crisp onions balance the marinated tender beef. The noodles were on the mushier side, but I still enjoyed it (ate the whole bowl!) The Cheeseburger was done well. It came on a huge platter with crispy well salted fries and a fresh salad. Although, the salad had a tad bit too much dressing, which seeped towards the fries and into the pepperoncini. Maybe a separate bowl for the dressing and/or salad would fare better. Overall great dishes that taste homemade.

    Bulgogi Kimbap
    Mike S.

    Along Northern Blvd there is no lack of Korean comfort food spots, but despite the multitudes Yoodon is a standout with their delicious food, large portions and friendly mom & pop vibe. Their neatly organized and straight forward menu lays out the options - sandwiches, kimbap, ramen, stir-fry, cutlet and of course their homonym namesake udon. The sandwiches are served on a large slab of round wood with a massive mound of fries and salad. The buns are fluffy brioche ones and whatever option you choose you will be happy with and walk out feeling full. You may find slightly less expensive kimbap options around the area, but none come close to the size and deliciousness of what they are packing here. The rolls are huge and filling - some even have extra topping on the side that you can add to your bites. The udon is probably what I get most often with shrimp tempura being a fav - I love dipping the large crunchy shrimp in their delicious broth. I enjoy their aesthetic and presentation of dishes. It all really hits the spot. The friendly service is a bonus as well. I'm a Yoodon fan!

    I very much liked the food here. I popped in for dinner to try it out since it came up on Yelp. The staff was quick to help and help me make selections. The food came out quickly and well plated. All the food was delicious but what made my night was the spice level. The waitress warned me when I was ordering the food, that spicy meant very spicy. Luckily, I really like spicy food because it really hopped up the heat. The restaurant is small, but has enough tables to accommodate a bunch of

    Read the reviews and want to try a 5 star food restaurant. It was empty around lunchtime but there were take out orders ready for pick up. The selection is not very wide but there are good options. Ordered two dishes which my friend and I shared. A combo ramen (you get to pick from not spicy to medium to spicy - we picked not spicy (which was not plain, still had a very slight bite). It combined all the ingredients offered for ramen (seafood, chicken, beef & veggies). The soup was flavorful and the ramen was the squiggly variety. The size of the bowl was decent. Out other order was a bulgogi Kim so. It was also tasty and a nice quantity. Each were $13. There was a one woman who managed the front - she was order taker, server and cashier. They played contemporary Christian music in the background. I would give it 4.5 rating but will support the business as a fellow Christian.

    I come here every time I'm having an off day, sick or just in the mood for some home cooked food. The owners are husband and wife. Do not be thrown off that it's not your typical fancy place inside. The food is amazinggggg and they are sooo nice. I love it here!

    Dominic W.

    Small mom and pop Korean restaurant in Bayside. Food was decent and very fairly priced. The house kimbap had a nice warm inside and crispy outside texture. The pork katsu was very good, as expected. The combination ramen was very spicy and sufficient. However the chopped pieces of beef mixed together with shrimp and tiny chicken breast didn't match too well IMO. My family still likes it here and we will be back again.

The Khong Rou Fan is comforting and flavorful, and the Niu Rou Mian is always a good choice when you want something warm and satisfying. The string beans were a nice light appetizer to start. It's kind of a semi-service place -- you order at the counter and clean up after yourself when you're done, so there's no need to leave a tip if you dine in.

Will probably revisit another time to see how other dishes taste and see what price point it will result in.

It's before Yelp and even before internet time). I could not imagine I can have this noodle in Bayside now. Comparing to the famous beef noodles I had, this is pretty good but still a way to go. Let's start with the noodle. It is al dente and carry the soup really well. The braised beef made well too. The tenderness is just fine. However, I missed the big piece of meat instead of bite size chopped cube. It is easy to eat but could be more satisfying. The Shanghainese Pok Choy is a must in order to complete this dish authentically. However, it's overly chopped. I missed the couple halved Shanghainese Pok Choy placed nicely on the side. For the soup, the fave is fine and the balance of the sour and savory is just to the point. However, I wish I could have more pickled veggie that added more sourness to the soup. It would be much better to place a container of pickled veggie on each table for the customer to add it freely. That would be perfect. This place is cozy, clean and neat. Thanks for the ambiance. I think I would still come back when I crave for Taiwanese noodles. Lap Yin Calvin Kwok

Menu is very limited with the protein options though with a few choices of noodles (spicy, ramen, or soup versions). They also carry poke bowls which I have yet to try. I did enjoy my beef over rice very much. Thin slices of beef, super tender and delicious. The sauce was on the sweeter side which was drizzled onto the beef as an au jus. And it came with half an egg, pickled radishes and broccoli. Another dish I enjoyed was the fish and cabbage hot pot. That was served with a bowl of rice. No noodles. Even with the spice level at "one pepper" rating, it was too much of a kick for me. But those that like spicy will enjoy it just fine. The fish pieces it came with were generous sized portions and this bowl was loaded with vegetables. Wood ear, mushrooms, cabbage, sliced white radish, and bean curd skin. It also has a few slices of spam (which I did order extra so I'm not sure if the normal is two slices). We also tried the pan fried pork gyoza which was perfectly fried on each side. Nice color. Taiwanese pork as a side comes with one pc per order. The fried chicken appetizer could use a little more spices but the chicken was so tender and very juicy. I liked it a lot. It does come with a dipping sauce which helps but I didn't use it much. All in all a good spot for take out but the menu will need to be expanded in order to have longevity. Sadly it didn't look busy each time I came to pick up. Staff is attentive and friendly.

Whenever I come across Taiwanese beef noodle soup, I usually have to try it. Overall, it was pretty good, the broth was tasty and the meat was tender. They offer both beef and beef tendon noodle soup, which I always appreciate since not every place does. However, when my mother requested just beef tendon due to dental issues, we were told it couldn't be accommodated because the meat is pre-portioned. That was a bit surprising for such a small establishment, as I would have assumed it was ladled from a larger pot like many similar places. I ended up ordering the same bowl and giving my mom all the tendon while I kept the meat although I'll admit I would have preferred to keep the tendon for myself. My cousin ordered the spicy beef noodle soup, which she really enjoyed. I tried a taste as well, but it wasn't really my preference. The spice had more of a Sichuan-style profile, leaning toward that mala flavor that I don't personally enjoy. Aside from that, the soup was enjoyable, though not the best I've had, but certainly nowhere near the worst either. We also ordered stinky tofu, which unfortunately didn't have quite enough soy sauce (I could have asked for more, but didn't bother) and ended up tasting a bit under-seasoned. It also wasn't as pungent as one would hope. Service was minimal, with one server who I believe may also have been the owner. While everything came out correctly, there wasn't much flexibility with requests, which made the experience feel a bit rigid. Prices were also on the higher side for a small, off-the-beaten-path spot. Overall, it was a decent meal with some good flavors, but a few inconsistencies kept it from being a standout.

The popcorn chicken was very tasty, but what confused me was that it wasn't hot when it arrived. It felt like it had been sitting out for a bit. My guess is they prepared the chicken first and held it while waiting for the soup so both dishes could come out together. Overall, the flavors were very good. The pricing is on the higher side, especially compared to Flushing. That said, if you're looking for a quick bite and don't want to make the trip out there, this place definitely gets the job done.
