    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Shrimp Kimbab. I am not sharing.
    Gio R.

    Everything is delicious. The man makes his own broth and it is soooooo goooood.!!! The wife had the chicken sandwich. It comes with fries and a salad. I had my usual ramen with chicken. Spice level 3. YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER CHICKEN SANDWICH OR RAMEN ANYWHERE!!! JUST ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Btw, they close on Sundays.

The good- plenty of meat in Lou Rou Fan, the texture of stinky tofu, the no tipping but bus your own tray business model. Friendliness of staff behind the ordering counter. The so-so: not enough fragrance in stinky tofu, the slightly soggy/oily pork chop, and lack of fragrance in Taiwanese sausage. The somewhat expensive price( our lunch costing $56 total). 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

I ordered the beef noodle soup and the popcorn chicken. The beef noodle soup came out first--the bowl was massive, though the portion itself felt just okay for the size. 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.

Their Fried Popcorn Chicken is also quite yummy. Mince Pork Over Rice is hot or miss for some reason. With that said, I feel that their stir fry dishes falls a bit short compared to some of their competitors. Two of my favorite dishes, Fly Heads (too greasy) and Sautéed Kidney (overcooked), are somewhat underwhelming. I am also not a fan of their Beef Noodle Soup and Thread Noodle Soup. Anyway, I do like enough dishes here that I would come back to keep trying more of the menu. I'm always glad that we have more options for Taiwanese food, and I hope this restaurant stays around.
