    5/5 delicious desserts. Belle Journey is the best bakery in the area- the space is very cute, organized, clean. They have a cabinet where you can pick out our own treats. They will even warm up the cake for you- everyone that works there is always so kind. I love the crème brûlée pastry so it's always something I get - I highly recommend! It's full of custard on the inside and satisfying crunch when you bite into it. The chocolate cake is light and not too sweet, full of flavor. You won't feel horrible after eating any of these desserts.

    Where did the BJ Bakery signage go?

    Walked by today and noticed the BJ Bakery signage along Lemoine Avenue is gone! Guess the owners finally figured out the double entendre! Have yet to try anything offered as coffee shops are not really my thing!

    This is hands down my new favorite spot for pastries!! I'm a huge cream lover so everything hit the spot. I usually go for the popular garlic cream bread, but this time I tried the sweet cheese one and it did not disappoint. The bread was crispy, and they even warmed everything up for us, which made it taste even better. The crème brûlée donut was amazing, and I really liked the lemon one too. They have savory options as well, and we ended up trying the crème brûlée shaved ice--such a good flavor! Super sweet staff, too. Highly recommend!

    This review is based off the creme brûlée donut. It is worth every single calorie! Many options to choose from and they all look delicious. The displays are clean and some of it is self serve with the exception of the big cakes.

    Oops excuse my picture having a half cut of each bread but I liked each pastries and coffee latte :) service is alright not the best! Lol

    So excited a new bakery just opened in the neighborhood -- and it did not disappoint! They've got some really fun, unique items you don't see at every other bakery (a biscotti-flavored croissant? Yes, please! ). And while cakes everywhere have gotten crazy expensive these days, I loved that they offer smaller ones -- perfect for a sweet little birthday celebration without breaking the bank. Definitely worth checking out!

    They never pick up the phone or have the goods you like in stock. It's always random.

    This review is for the COLD BREW ONLY. It is very SOUR and bitter and does not taste like your average cold brew, fair warning.

Decor is also authentic and minimal. There are no outrageous bells and whistles. The place has an atmosphere of that of a family business run by dedication and hard work. In addition, the prices are fair. Service was good as well. The woman at the front was pleasant and kind. I would come back on a cold day for a nice hot soup.

Came on a weekday night and there weren't many people in the store. - Deluxe Gomtang - I think the difference between the normal gomtang and the deluxe version is that they give a bit more meat and rice. 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!

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.

Side dishes (fresh kimchi, radish, fish cake, and egg) were AMAZING. Had so many refills. Come here!! FOOD: Premium Soy Marinated Crab (9/10) - Insanely sweet and crab sizes are very generous. Mix the rice in the head, you won't be disappointed Soy Marinated Blue Crab (8/10) - Also really good, but crabs are a bit smaller. 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.

We decided on this place because rating was pretty good and was open late. It's located in a plaza with Korean market, liquor store, cafe and such. Large parking area available in the plaza. Inside is small but clean and gives off traditional Korean restaurant vibe with of course Korean music. There were quite few Korean customers as well as staffs so i knew we were in the right place. They specialize in Korean beef soup. We ordered rice cake and dumplings and special beef rib soup. The fish came with purple rice and various kimchi and pickled veggies side dishes. They also serve korean hot tea along side the dishes. My special beef rib soup was very light and clear but full of beef flavor. Little touch with salt and pepper with pickled veggies and rice paired with very well. The meats were very tender and flavorful as well. Portion is quite large and i was not able to finish my bowl although i did help with another bowl of rice from my partner. My partner got the rice cake and dumplings beef soup. This one was a but lighter and needed more salt flavoring but also good. She liked her's better as she doesn't like heavier and fattier meat/broth. Salt and peppers are provided to adjust your seasoning as needed. Even though they could not finish the dishes i throughly enjoyed the food. What i like about Korean dishes is that even some are heavy and fatty they include lots of vegetables and healthy ingredients which makes it feel like you had a healthy meal and lots of nutrients despite eating out. Service was minimal but adequate. Overall it was very good authentic Korean restaurant that offers solid Korean beef soup. If you want to try authentic Korean beef soup and you are in the area this is the place.

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. On top of that, we got more ban chan than an attention-starved halmoni hosting her first family reunion in 10 years. Everywhere I pointed my chopsticks, I touched food. It was delightful. If I can ever gather enough people, I'd gladly infest this place again.

We opted for the $90 2 person combo which came with your choice of 3 meats. Our server helped us and recommended us to try the dry aged pork belly, pork jowl and marinated pork short rib. All of the meats were incredibly good! The pork combo also came with the fluffiest steamed egg and your choice of soup. 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. Service was amazing, our server was super attentive and helpful. He grilled all of the meats to perfection! Highly recommend coming here

    There is a reason why this place is my go to place for OG Korean food…read more Authentic, flavorful, genuine and generous; they serve some of the best food in the area. There is always a wait, and clientele is a mix of older Korean looking for taste of home (like me) and new younger crowd who knows a good thing when they taste it. We ordered, pigs feet (everyone gets it, it's their signature dish), pork neck casserole (they don't skimp, lots of meat chunks and good flavors from wild sesame), bone broth soup/grilled fish combo (also a crowd favorite) and bulgogi in broth (it pleased our finicky eater, and they served a lot of meat instead of fillers). Kimchi sides were a mix of aged deep/sour kind (right up my alley). As for other comments about the 'bland' bone broth, it's supposed to be bland and they give you a number of condiments to suit your taste. It's BYOB, so bring your beer soju or somaks and join the crowd. Priced fair and with generous portions. We will be back again.

In the corners of the dining room, there were large nets of onions, boxes of napa cabbage, dish collection trays, tin cans, and oversized plastic bags of MSG, giving the impression that little attention was paid to the atmosphere. Three types of kimchi were served, but they were overly fermented--too sour and somewhat sticky. Nevertheless, I did enjoy the gamjatang, my favorite dish, which was satisfying. However, my wife was disappointed with her sundae gukbap due to the poor quality of the sundae and the lingering pork odor. We had high expectations based on the strong reviews on Yelp, but ultimately decided not to return.
