It is a very good reasonably priced restaurant . I like the beef short ribs , the beef is very tender and well seasoned. I like the 5 or 6 small appetizer plates placed on table as one sits down.
Amazing tofu soup . One of my favorite Korean places, ever. I usually go for the mushroom tofu soup , but it's all good. I love the banchan here too! Very authentic , great and fast service !
I always get the haemul soondooboo (seafood tofu soup ) and daeji bulgogi (spicy pork ), my favorite Korean restaurant . Cell service is non-existent and dining area is loud but still worth it.
Can get crowded but it's a great lunch spot for a change of pace in Palo Alto. I recommend the spicy tofu soup with kimchi and bulgogi .
Private parking lot but gets busy on a Friday night. Wait wasn't too long and turnover is fast. Tofu soup is legit. Good banchan too.
Not necessarily the best Korean restaurant around Stanford, but everyone has heard about it and been there. It's close to Escondido Village . The line is usually long but it's worth the wait.
Open Sunday! Generous sizzling BBQ platter portions. Soon dubu is on point, and if you ask, will give you the spiciest in the Bay area. Ban chan includes kimchee with oysters ! Yum
You'll smell like Korean food after you're done. Really the only Korean restaurant in palo alto so it's usually very crowded by 6pm. Get here at 5:30 pm and you're good to go
Vegetable tofu is really good, but I'd recommend getting it medium spicy at least. Service is typical Asian service (aka nonexistent) but at least the male waiter is hella cute .
Bibimbap is excellent. I usually go for the beef as the meat.
Got the tofu soup with dumplings and added ramen -- was absolutely delicious!!! Definitely would come back!!
Great korean restaurant . I always order Conbination Tofu Soup , and add Bibimbap or BBQ Beef (Bulgogi ) according to mood.
I had Japanese food , it was very tasty. I got a sampler plate with several options, very nice
Yum - glass noodles are delicious, BBQ ribs good, tofu soup good
Their tofu soup is delicious. Dumpings and pancake for appetizers are also great.
I had the vegetable soft tofu and it was Delicious!!
Try their mackerel dish, it's awesome!
Can't go wrong with the house specials .
The beef bibimbap was outstanding. The bulgogi was also pretty good.
Bibimbap was some of the best I’ve ever had.
Always love good soon dubu but they don't serve the rice in the stone pots! What's up??
Soft tofu with cheese tastes better than it might sound, if you want a slightly creamier soup base
Soup used to be a lot better in my opinion but still alright. Bibimbap is good. The cold noodle soups are a bit expensive . And... The dokboki is actually really good.
Come before 6pm before it gets crowded - popular place even on week nights.
Great soft tofu soup . Regular is almost definitely spicy enough.
Truly authentic Korean BBQ . Loved their Dugolgi!
Even if lots of people are waiting outside, the wait for a table is pretty quick.
The Bibimbap is awesome. Highly recommend.
Cheese tofu soup is interesting and delicious!
Woah!! Amazing food and great service! Try the spicy pork ...astounding!!!
Medium tofu soup combo . Amazing.
Great tofu soup and seafood pancake
I was coming with high hopes, but I left the place very disappointed. The bbq chicken isn't bbq , too much sugar on it. the beef bibimbap was ok. I don't recommend it and,obviously, I'm not coming back
The Korean food here is pretty good. But it's very busy. So prepare to wait.
Great sundubu and bibimbap
The Bibimbab was delicious!
Can't go wrong with the original tofu bowl. Delicious and piping hot!
Solid tofu and great sides
Love the tofu soup ! Some of the best tofu I've ever tasted!
Soft tofu with veggie dumpling is awesome!
When you get the tofu soup wait for it to cool down, unless you want to singe you're taste buds
Seafood soft tofu is so good here!
Excellent Korean side dishes
Bulgogi and tofu stew is so good.
The best Korean food in the area.
Don't get the cheese soondubu unless you like cheetos flavored soup . It's not melted on top it's mixed in. Stick with the basics!
Try the Seafood Tofu Bowl - There's a head on my shrimp !!
Hot tofu soup and jabchae to go!
Don't let the name fool you... they make a great BBQ spicy pork .
Nice warm soondubu for a cold night
Dungeness Crab Salad right now in season is an obvious choice; very good. Pandora choc mousse a nice tawny port is a great pairing - Richard Gardner
They offer TEISHOKU which is typical Japanese combination plate. And it's good. Nanban is the must! - m d
White Crystal boba is apparently the healthier version of regular boba. Love all the options it has to customize your drink! Get 25-50% sugar because the drinks tend to be sweet. - Caroline Deng
They have great variety of natural skin care products, organic food and prepared food. The store is very tidy. - Dilek Unar
Unlike any coffee I’ve had before! The rose and mint mojito iced coffees were unreal! So delicious - Paps
