    Visited on Saturday night. Waited a bit to be seated. We sat at the middle table. It was so loud. Waited a long time to order because the server was not getting to us. We had to stop one of them while she was getting to the other table. Side dishes: kimchi isn't really fermented. Tasted pretty raw and too sweet. I wanna call this a salad. Heukyumso jeongol: I liked the soup. It tasted okay. The meats aren't flavored at all. The whole jeongol came pretty cold. We waited a while for the warmer to cook the soup (never really did). I wanted to ask them to boil this dish but server never gets to us. 3/5

    Black Goat Meat on bed of scallion
    Greg K.

    With my clients from Korea and we decided to take a trip from Manhattan all the way to Ridgefield, NJ to have the specialty of Black Goat Meat or Heu Kyum So Suyuk as they had this on the menu! I never heard of this before, but besides KBBQ and Soondobu and banchan, what would I really know anyway right! Well, I was googling like crazy this dish both in the english words on their menu and also the Korean spelling and got really nothing. This dish is simply amazing and well worth the trip to have this dish! 1. They bring out the rib meat or the neck meat to your table and prepare all the meat for your dish! The meat and bones have been simmering for perhaps 8+ hours and it is fall off the bone tender! 2. Once carved, they place it on a steaming dish on your plate on a bed of scallions and then you are given lettuce leaves, garlic, jalepenos and some kind of Ssamjang that you mix up. 3. Then, you simply forget your manners and dig in here! Now, I am not being polite, I am not using the "other end" of my chopsticks. I am all out in my "Lord of the Flies" mode and making my lettuce wraps of goat meat, scallion, garlic and shoving all this in my mouth to chew while I prep another of these wonderful tender wraps. After this wrap, we next had the soup and i was told it was the Heu Kyum so Jeongol which was plane and delicious. Finally, we ended this meal with Fried Rice and it was simply a complete and enjoyable experience. We were fortunate to go with native Koreans that knew how to order this and how to eat it. What a great experience. Tender, tasty, fun and totally enjoyable. Family owned mom and pop type shop. Excellent and GK says.... check it out.

    Black goat meat

    Amazing goat meat! The steamed meat was very tender and juicy, one of the best goat meat I've ever had. The lamp soup was also full of flavor. Highly recommend!

    Stew and rice
    Dani P.

    The food is a 4.5 the atmosphere and experience is a 2.7. Overall, the staff is just meh and the dishes are unsanitary considering this place is very old. However, there really is no other restaurant that serves goat, rice, and soup like this. The acorn jelly is my favorite side dish and they brought us more. The sauce is pretty good with goat. I would ask for extra of those bead things to add more crunchiness. The kalbi is very sweet. I would only recommend coming here if you love goat and can bring a water bottle. We come here twice a year to have goat. Each serving of goat is about $33 so it is a bit on the pricier side.

    Black goat stew
    Eric K.

    One word: black goat stew. Git it & you'll earn super powers. Even better if you're a guy they say. (lol) Regardless of the veracity of that claim above, I come here when I need an energy boost and I've always left super charged and ready to snap buildings in half. And I did. No comment on what they were made of. Love dipping bits of goat meat in that spicy mustard + ssamjang-ish paste + parella seeds & their oil (ddeul kkae oil) + minced garlic dip. There, I just told you the recipe - I'm nice like that. You could also have black goat soo yook which is the version they give you steamed meat, soup, and later make a fried rice out of the remaining soup. Definitely a 2-ppl + take home container kind of hearty meal. Even their banchans rock. This place simply cannot go wrong. I've been a loyal patron since mid-2000s, chasing them around from Fairview, Fort Lee, and now to Ridgefield. For a foodie like me to do such a thing, it means they got their shiznits down. GO EAT GOAT. Thank me later when you snap stuff in half.

    It's bit pricey for mom/pop-shop of korean restaurant but I want to say they have a very healthy food. Very authentic and I would come here again. Service was great too. The servers don't seem to speak english so may need to just do lot of body language.

    Sam gye tang
    Genevieve C.

    Ever since trying Sam gye tang in Korea, I have been looking for this dish in the tristate area. I was not disappointed when I tried it here. The soup arrives sizzling inside the bowl with different herbs and the well cooked chicken. Be ready for another delight when you see the rice stuffed inside the chicken. The soup taste savory without any salt (the dish is served with salt on the side for your preference). Just writing about this fish made my mouth waters. This would be my number one go-to dish in the winter, especially considering it is great for the health. The restaurant also sells its own homemade kimchi which I liked better than the ones we get in store. But just for the Sam gye soup alone, I would come back again for sure.

    Steamed black goat meat called 'Sooyook' It is Korean tradition to keep your energy level maintained during hot summer season.
    Steve H.

    Food got so much better and staffs are very friendly. Although I am not a big fan of kimchi, I found their kimchi and banchan(appetizer) absolutely delicious. Feels very healthy and fresh. FYI, goat meat is Korean traditionally help maintain your stamina high during hot summer season. I feel recharged and ready for the summer.

    A relaxing place to hang out with friends on a winter day and have some black goat, the food is great!

    A friend recommended this place for Goat Meat. There aren't many places that specializes in steamed black goat meat. I believed that this place used to be a place for sushi/sashimi, not sure when they changed but am glad that they did. The is a minimum of 2 lb for the steamed black goat which was what I ordered which I think it is good for 2-3 people (if really hungry 2 people..lol). They also serve soup and fried rice served after the meat, both of these was amazing. The meat was very tender and each bite just melts in your mouth. Even better when dipped with the sauces they provide. The Service was great here and people were super nice. The goat dish is break down by the waitress and they do this at each table so it may take a little time (this is understandable). Definitely a place worth checking out. See you soon Bang Ga Nae. Also this place is BYOB. Soju is best with the goat meal - I feel.

Ordered three things: 1) marinated crabs, small size (5/5). Always a must-get here. 2) ddukbaegi bulgogi (4.5/5) - Thinly sliced prime marinated beef ribeye casserole with rice cake and glass noodle and mushroom served in a sizzling hot pot. Really flavorful and so good to have on a cold day. 3) ahjae ppyo jjim (4.5/5) - Braised prime beef meat bones in soy reduction with carrots, radish, dates, chestnut, rice cake and glass noodles. We got non-spicy. It came in a HUGE bowl. Definitely meant to be shared with a group. Took leftovers home and it was still yummy the next day mixed with knife-cut noodles I had at home.

Still tastes great with the rice Bibingnaeng (8/10) - Really solid cold noodles with beef, pear, and cucumbers? Great way to finish off the meal.

That gave us enough time to have the place to ourselves and order literally everything they could think to serve us. This was easily one of the best KBBQ experiences I've had. The meat cuts were all perfectly marinated and grilled, from the Dry-Aged Pork Belly, to the tender Pork Jowl, to the juicy Marinated Pork Ribs. The Budae Jjigae was savory comfort, and the Shin Ramen Fried Rice was not only abundant, but served in an adorable heart shape. Even the Kimchi Stew and Gyeran-jjim were more umami than the countless counterparts I've had elsewhere.

They also gave banchan which was your typical kimchi, pickled radish, corn salad, as well as tteokbokki, pajeon, and raw marinated crab! Overall, we loved the food here.

I really liked the gomtang as the flavors were really rich especially when elevated by the pepper. - Seolleongtang - Clear and beautiful broth that went really well with salt. I felt like the meat was not as tender as I hoped but still made me think of my favorite Korean restaurant where I grew up. - Kong-guksu - I didn't know what to expect of this dish as I've never heard of it or tried it before but I didn't really like the dish. No matter how much salt/pepper I put in, there still didn't seem to be a lot of flavor. I ended up dumping the Korean Pickled Onion banchan in which helped elevate the flavor a lot. - Mini KimchiJeon - When I read this off the menu, I though the kimchi pancake would be extremely small but it turned out to be quite bit and very delicious. It was super crispy on the outside with soft insides stuffed with kimchi. I will definitely be back to this home-y restaurant!

This time around, it's a stronger 5 out of 5 because of our waiter was amazing. Ugh, I can't remember his name. He was on top of everything and making sure our food was grilled in a timely manner. He was quick to follow up with orders/requests that didn't come through when the kitchen didn't bring them out. Usually my gripe or disclaimer I give to people is that Wooga is great at everything except wrapping up things on the end. In the past, whenever I went, it would take forever (!!!!!) to get our check and pay. It was so frustrating but this time around, it was a bit faster. It's a win-win situation because we get to pay and leave and the restaurant has another table for customers. Though on the pricier side, Wooga does check off all the boxes of: -amazing meat quality -amazing & attentive service -they don't skimp on banchans (side dishes that I heard other restaurants are starting to limit) -several meat combo options -best Korean steamed egg in the North Jersey area We tried the thinly sliced oxtails, which were really good but pretty pricey for $38cash/$39.90card for 11oz of it. There are some things that are inconvenient (long waits, very small parking lot) but it's easy to overlook them once you have a meal at Wooga. Things to know before you go: -Their menu is updated on their website if you want to check that out before you go. -The earlier you go, the better your chance of being seated quickly. Weekends are definitely a longer wait, so plan ahead. -Their parking lot is small so it fills up super quickly, so you'll have to park across the street and play Frogger (maybe you might be too young to know this reference?) to cross the 4 lanes of Palisade Ave. -When you arrive, make sure to check in with the host/hostess so that you could get a pager to know when your table is ready. Your turn can come pretty fast sometimes depending on the timing.

If you want to try authentic Korean beef soup and you are in the area this is the place.
