Came in with my family early evening around 5 or 6pm on a Sunday and it was pretty empty. It seems like they get more takeout orders than sitdown customers but it wasn't prime dinner time when we went. I had a cold so a big warm bowl of porridge was just what I needed. I ordered the bulgolgi octopus porridge while my dad ordered the seaweed oyster porridge and my grandparents got seafood porridges. Service was a bit slow as there was only one waitress who not only handled the cashier and phone calls but also taking orders and bringing it out. We were in no rush and the waitress was really nice, she did her best to explain to us what the options were when asked and was attentive with refilling tea and side dishes. The porridge comes out on a tray with a big bowl of porridge, a smaller bowl to scoop the porridge into, and a few side dishes such as kimchi, radish, soy sauce pork? or so. The kimchi was decently spicy which was nice. The porridge itself was pretty good and tasted nutritious. Octopus pieces were nice bite sizes but the bulgolgi was not cut well, it was too big and not cut into small pieces so it was difficult to eat. Besides that, it was a nice healthy meal and easy to eat for my elderly grandparents too. read more

Bonjuk - Bulgolgi octopus porridge - Korean Near Me - Flushing, New York

Have they gone downhill or did I just get a bad batch. Ordered octopus kimchi porridge while feeling under the weather and everything is overly salty, spicy and just not edible. Too bad I had to drive 30 minutes to get this. Otherwise, I would bring it back. I suspect they dropped the salt shaker by mistake. read more

Bonjuk - Very heavy on the sodium. Could not eat it as is so I had to had a plain rice - Korean Near Me - Flushing, New York

Wow...I did not expect porridge/congee/Juk can taste this good! & trust me, it's worth the above average price for this stuff. If you're feeling under the weather, this is the way to go. Let's get into detail: Place - a very comforting and zen place. They have classical music playing in the background and people respect others where they don't go around talking loud. The seating was comfortable and parking is abundant out in front. Food - I ordered the ginseng chicken porridge and it was delicious. I had it to go and don't worry about it being a mess because they have these rectangular boxes that can withstand the heat of it and that can hold up for you to eat it with no issues. It came with small sides of kimchi and other stuff I'm not sure of but it was good with the whole meal. Also a plus is their sturdy and good looking bags! The chicken came shredded and the consistency was perfect. Sometimes when you go to the Chinese spots for congee they come too watery or too thick and if you're lucky, you'll get it right. This place changes the porridge / congee game for me. I'll be coming here for my fix and if I'm not feeling well, I'll be ordering from here. Great spot that I highly recommend. read more

Porridge is always a solid choice for upset stomachs, hangovers, sick days, or just because. So comforting, soothing, and flavorful. Despite having grown up with porridge, this is my first Korean styled one, and I'm a huge fan! A great mix of different ingredients, making the meal feel hearty and warm. My only gripe is with the price. Definitely pricier items considering how unsubstantial the food is- the full feeling goes away fairly quickly. Side dishes for takeout are disappointingly small. This place may have converted me to trying more Korean porridges, but I probably will not be returning too often. read more

I didn't get a chance to take any pictures however the congee was so delicious. It had the right amount of flavors and felt very rich with nutrients. read more

I have been ordering takeout/delivery at this place for awhile. Today, is the first time where the porridge does not have any flavor. Someone forgot to add the flavoring that Im used to for years. Thank you so much for ruining my dinner. read more

Last Wednesday I was in flushing area. It was cold and rainy day. I stopped by to bon juk and was greeted by nice lady as soon as I walked in. I been here few times last few years ago but now the traveling to flushing it's hard so I stopped going. This place is a big plus if you had wisdom or any tooth out since you shouldn't chew anything. It's also good for health. I really liked the interior. So there were no customer at the time I went since it was around 9:30am but there were alot of take out. Oyster mushroom porridge: The seasoning and everything was great! Sometime oyster has fishy smells but this place didn't which was a big plus for me. It came with 3 sides dishes. One of them were just too salty which I barely touched. Abalone porridge: It was bland to me that needed some soy sauce but my friend did liked it except one of the side dishes being salty. I also ordered one of their drinks which it got me interested because it was never there past few years ago. There were 3 options but I ordered the pumpkin juice. At first it tasted like milk mostly but if you shake a little it taste much better. I liked the pumpkin juice! So next time I'm there I will try their mungbean drink. Overall on the time I stopped by I had excellent experience with them. read more

Such a hidden gem! Definitely hits the spot after a night of drinking or when you're feeling under the weather - the atmosphere is calm and peaceful. The menu has a variety of different congees (rice porridge). Anything from seafood, meats, or veggies. I believe they even have sweet options as well. For the price, $12 each, you really can't go wrong. The bowl is HUGE. Definitely enough to even share between two if you're not that hungry. Each bowl comes with three different side dishes, which pair well with the porridge. It's also accompanied by a cold radish soup, which really replenishes the mouth after the hot porridge. Definitely will be coming back to try everything on the menu! read more

Bonjuk - Beef with mushroom (bottom) & beef with seaweed (top) - Korean Near Me - Flushing, New York

Went there with a friend last night. There is a tiny (free) parking space around the corner from the restaurant. Should have taken a picture. Northern Blvd in Flushing can be notoriously hard to find street parking. Waitress was kind and attentive. This is a specialty dish restaurant. Wait staff speaks mainly Korean. Menu has pictures and yelp reviews definitely helps. Juk/congee/porridge is a soupy rice dish. Simple and if made at home would be inexpensive. It was nice to have a quiet night out with friends having a place to enjoy a simple dish. You have to try this place at least once, especially if you've never had it before. I would come back. FYI: If you see "crab" in the title, it's imitation crab. read more

Best place to get something healthy to eat if you're feeling sick or just want something light in your tummy.

My friend wasn't feeling good and she was craving congee.. So Bonjuk it was...haha I like porridge, but I've never been to Bonjuk, so I was definitely interested in eating there. When we got here, I thought the interior looked like one of those porridge house I see sometimes in Korean dramas..lol One look at the menu, and I was surprised to see they only served porridge! Nothing else! loll No big deal, but it was just surprising. I've never seen so many different combinations of porridge.. EVER. And me, having such a sweet tooth, I decided to get the Sweet Pumpkin Porridge, while my friend had the Oyster and Mushroom. Food came fairly quickly. 2 HUGE bowls of juk, with 3 small banchan..and a bowl of what looked like clear water and pieces of daikon..which I assumed was to cleanse your palette. I tried a small bowl of my friend's Oyster and Mushroom juk, and I thought it was very tasty! Lots of flavor, even without mixing the spices. My Sweet Pumpkin was also very flavorful, and had the perfect level of sweetness.. Wasn't overpowering. Unfortunately, I was too full from breakfast earlier (Half a quart of ice cream), so I took half my bowl to go.. lol I will definitely be back to try their other juk on the menu. The octopus juk looks really yummy! :D read more

This place makes old fashioned juk or rice porridge. I guess Chinese, Korean and All cultures have a version of soupy rice cooked until it's flowery. Anyways I came here often when I was a new mom visiting my grandma and wanted to bring some good edible food for her. Usually I saw Korean black car drivers grabbing a late breakfast here. It's a great place for a cold or sick day when soupy substantial helps. read more

This restaurant serves exactly one type of food- congee aka porridge aka juk/jook. I ordered the oyster and mushroom porridge, and my dad ordered the abalone porridge. They both came with some sides you can put in your porridge to eat with it, and some soup. My porridge had tons of mushroom and oyster in it, and was very​ flavorful. My dad's porridge didn't have as much abalone in it, and my parents said they probably uses dried abalone (which isn't surprising- fresh abalone is expensive). Overall, we were pretty satisfied with our food. The porridge portions are pretty big and my parents and I don't eat a lot, so two bowls between the three of us was perfect. For those of you who like to vary up the textures of their food when eating, you might need to take a break once in a while- everything is soft and squishy, and unfortunately, because this restaurant is porridge only, there isn't anything else you can order to get other food textures. Can't really complain though- it only claims to be good at making juk! The restaurant has a clean and quiet vibe too. Great place to eat and take a break from the rush of the real world. read more

Bonjuk - Mushroom and Oyster Porridge with sides and soup - Korean Near Me - Flushing, New York

Theres just something about Korean rice porridge that has a place in my heart. Everything is made fresh to order, this can take upto 15mins of wait time but the end result is well worth it. Dont be deceived by the portion and think its for sharing, I can eat the entire bowl myself in one sitting, it is just that good and its rice porridge so half if it is water. I highly recommend getting any of the ones with cheese. Sounds off to have cheese in your rice or porridge but Koreans know how to make it taste good and wanting you to come back for seconds and thirds. I dont think any of the rice porridge isnt good, just your preference and what you feel like having that day. read more

When I was in flushing area, it was cold day. I stopped at bon juk to order takeout and was greeted by lady as soon as I walked in although there were 2-3 tables inside already. Juk is my go-to whenever someone is sick in my house. My mom wasn't feeling well so i ordered my mom's favorite: seaweed fluvescens oyster porriage. Seaweed fluvescens oyster porridge: the seasoning and everything was great. Sometime the seaweed and the oyster have the porridge smell fishy but this place didn't. It came with 3 small side dishes in the sauce containers, but it complemented the porridge very well (I just wish there were more of the side dishes). Overall, I liked the place and the food but I thought there was small amount of side dishes and price was high. read more

The perfect spot for your authentic Korean porridge soup. Their serving size is generous and their little kimchi side seems small but it's definitely enough to go with the meal. I usually like to turn it into two meals since I can never finish it in one sitting. The soup gives me such warmth making me feel right at home! I never dined there and only ordered take-out, but their packaging is very nice, safe, and clean. Service is great and the staff are very friendly. Usually you eat porridge when you're feeling sick, but I can eat this every week. The veggie one if my favorite. Koreans usually buy this for their family members or friends when they're sick which is a very thoughtful think to do. Give it a try! :) Would I recommend this spot for people who like porridge? Absolutely! 10/10! read more

I have gotten a few to-go's and things were packaged nicely, order was completed in a timely manner, and food was good. I haven't had the chance to dine in, but it seems like a quiet place to have a meal. read more

My sister and I had seen Bonjuk in Los Angeles when we were out on vacation a few months back enjoying Korean porridge. To our surprise, we found out that there was a Bonjuk three blocks away from my friend's house in Flushing. Being Chinese, my sister and I always enjoyed having juk (rice porridge) growing up. We noticed that the Korean rice porridge was thicker in consistency and came with condiments on the side. The side condiments were kimchee, some sort of marinated beef strips and another cup that had something chopped up in a similar spicy base like the kimchee. I like to eat the kimchee separate and mix the other too accompaniments in the rice porridge. We ordered the abalone rice porridge that also had minced up mushrooms to give it an earthy taste. The one order to go was well enough to feed both my sister and I. According to their menu the porridges are meant to give health benefits to help or prevent ailments. Besides savory porridges they also offer sweet porridges too. Next time I will need to try to eat in the restaurant and maybe try another flavor. read more

One day I caught a cold and wanted juk, my boyfriend brought me here and both ordered the jeonbok juk, their Jim's are pretty pricey compared to chinese juks but taste way different. Chinese juks are more watery and has added corn starch for thickener. Korean style juks does not have that, are much thicker and I suppose it is pricey because they use real abalone. They have a selection of juks and their specialty is only juk. I love the side dishes that came with it. I ate them with my juk. I especially love their kimchi and jang jorim. Will come back to try different juks. read more

One of my favorite congee places in NYC. I wish they were in Manhattan and I could come here more frequently. When I don't feel well or when the weather is getting cold, I always craving for congee, it is definitely a comfort food for me and Bonjuk has a good variety, from beef to seafood, from non-spicy to spicy (with kimchi) and even sweet dessert like. Everything is so well-made (all the ingredients are chopped to small pieces, with seaweed powder topping/ sometimes with sesame) and so delicious. Every congee comes with 3 types of chopped toppings that served in a small side container you can add to your congee as per your own preference. Highly recommend to add them in (not too much- it can be too salty or overcome the congee taste), as they go so well with the congee and bring the flavor and the texture to a next level. If you haven't tried this place I would highly recommend. Believe they have one in LA and of course in Korea as well. read more

Bonjuk - Korean Near Me - Flushing, New York

Bon Juk is a Korean chain that specializes in Korean juk, or rice porridges. There's one in Flushing, and another one at Cliffside Park (NJ). Rice porridge are, like meat-on-a-stick, ubiquitous across cultures. The Chinese call it Zhou (粥), the Indians kanji. The Portuguese have their Canjas and the Indonesians their bubur. Juk is comfort food - soft and warm, it's usually the first thing served to you as a baby, and probably the last that will be offered at your deathbed. It's considered the very pure essence of home cooking, and just like mother's apple pie and/or chicken soup, it's considered to be the purest manifestation of nourishment. You will find similar savory starch soups on the menus across the world that will sing heartily to you in similar ways. Pakistanis love their haleems, the Scots their oatmeal, the Scandinavians their pea soups, and the Greeks their Avgolemonos. Of course, it's not to say that rice porridge is by default interesting or delicious - for example, the average Chinese breakfast zhou is a thin, flavorless affair that requires salt and other accompaniments to make it palatable. Indonesian bubur requires the application of crispy savory crullers, fried chicken, chopped eggs, carmelized soy sauce and fried onions to turn it into an acceptable breakfast dish called bubur ayam. How about the Korean juk? Well, this is where Bon Juk shines - in keeping with Korean tradition of simple nourishment (that is, assuming that they are not burning off your tastebuds one chile pepper at a time), they view the addition of simple ingredients like black sesame and roasted pumpkin to be soothing and medicinal. For example, if you order the pumpkin juk, it'll have an extra element of thickness in the form of arrowroot powder. If you order the abalone congee, it'll have some other ingredients in there to round out the flavor and bring out the wholesomeness. If you order the mushroom and beef, you will likely encounter the base soup that features carrots, scallions, zucchini and whatnot, and if you order the octopus and bulgogi, you'll get the same base soup but with some additional ingredients (like chopped octopus and marinated beef slices) stirred in. Now, the flavor is what you would expect out of a bowl of well made Juk, that is, warm, nourishing, simple but with wholesome ingredients. If you want more complexity, you could opt for more unusual flavors like cheese or sea whelks, or more traditional flavors like pumpkin or beans. Each order is a set that came with an okay amount of accompaniments (banchan) usually in the form of kimchi, brisket marinated in soy and sesame oil, a bowl of turnip pickle juice (with pickles), some roasted corn tea, and a cup of pumpkin tea at the end as a dessert. Expect to pay about $16/person, and a little extra for gratuities - kind of expensive considering that a congee is about $5 in Chinatown, but still, the quality of the ingredients do justify part of the price tag. In terms of service? They are rather uneven. I've been heartily greeted and served with courtesy, or I've been ignored by indifferent staff members. The last 2 times has been okay, but they had their staffing trouble in the past. The dining room is quiet and contemporary, and with the classical music piped in the background, rather relaxing. I wouldn't go out of my way for Juk, but if I am in the area (stepped off the LIRR at Broadway or happen to be at H-Mart down the block), I wouldn't mind dropping by. read more

If I could give a zero star review, I would. This place sells porridges, red bean juice, pumpkin juice and mung bean juice. I came here six times so far. Each time, the place was empty. I bought porridges, which are barely adequate, and pumpkin juice, which I like. The last time I ordered a pumpkin juice and was drinking it inside. After ten minutes, the manager told me I had to leave because I had to eat their unremarkable porridge to stay. Now, the pumpkin juice cost me $7, almost as much as their cheapest porridge dish. And I left $1.50 in tip. But more irritatingly, the restaurant was empty!!! I have never encountered a more unnecessarily rude customer service. I cannot recommend this restaurant. You pay a huge premium for their drinks but they will kick you out unless you eat their mediocre porridge. read more

You know it's good when it's the only thing that sold here! Hearty and healthy congee with a lot of flavors. It was empty the day I came but it was 3pm so that explained. The restaurant is moderately decorated with really cozy, relaxing seatings and is super clean. I had Samgye juk which contained chicken and ginseng (trying to be healthy after all). My friends went for Salmon juk and Mushroom Oyster juk. The samgye and salmon juk were yellowy and had veggies like carrots and zucchini in it. While the oyster was plain white with mushroom. All were added seaweed and sesame seeds. Each juk also came with sides of cut kimchi, chilly, radish and pulled pork. The juk it self was really tasty and even better with kimchi added. Portion was huge so I love that they gave you a small bowl as well. We later ordered an Abalone juk to-go as we were visiting a friend in the hospital after eating. She loved it so much! (imagining hospital food) The ladies there were very nice to us. The price range was ~$13-16, which I think it's not pricey at all considering its portion and nutrition. Hangover/ toothache/ any sickness remedy for sure. read more

Bonjuk - Salmon porridge - Korean Near Me - Flushing, New York

I have gone twice to Bonjuk. The first time I was pretty impressed with the rice porridge as it is usually something I eat when I feel I am coming down with an illness. When I walked in, there was ample seating. I think they only have one owner/worker here with maybe two people in the kitchen to help her. I haven't ever seen additional staff so that would explain the long wait when you order... My overall rating is about 3.25 so I rounded down to 3. I ordered the crab meat juk which turned out to be mostly just kani (the kind you buy from the frozen food section of the supermarket. The kani is cut up into chunks and is very fluffy (did they steam it?) but it's disappointing to realize it's not fresh crab meat. I thought the restaurant marketed to how fresh and healthy their foods are. The second time I came, I ordered the salmon juk. Both times the wait time was about the same after ordering food, about 30 mins which is pretty long. If you come here, make sure you factor in how long it takes them to make the juk! You would think they would have a better method of saving time, especially if the restaurant is packed! I have never seen this place packed, so I can't speak much for it. Customers gently trickle in, especially in the winter months. They bring you hot tea when you sit down so drink the tea to stave off the hunger and build your appetite in anticipation? Portions here are large which is great. However the ratio of juk to meat and other things they put as toppings (carrots, veggies, seaweed, etc) is high so I don't feel satisfied. It's like ordering chicken noodle soup and finding mostly soup and not enough chicken or noodles. In this case, the crab meat and flavorings like seaweed are scooped and placed in the center of the juk, and after you mix it all in it doesn't feel like there is enough for what you pay for. Of course this is Korean style rice porridge so they have those tiny side dishes for you to enjoy with it: kimchi, pickled sliced beef, and a pickled daikon mini soup, and a pickled brown vegetable I'm not familiar with. However these side dishes are very small and I always finish them with a lot of juk remaining. I don't think they refill them either as both times the worker came around to refill the tea but made no mention of the side dishes. I wish they would give more in each side dish mini ramekin as I felt like they skimped out, especially on the pickled beef. Without all these additional flavors, the taste of the juk is rather bland and falls short. It ends up tasting like something I could have made at home, which is why I ended up with a 3 star rating. Overall good if you need and crave simple comfort food. read more

Best place to come when it's super cold out or you're feeling under the weather. This traditional Korean porridge is really good and affordable. It's super filling and comes with small side dishes.

pops wasn't feeling well so went with the abalone. Is the place pricey? yes. Is it a delicious meal though? hell. yes. Making juk isn't really hard--making it really frikken good is dumb hard for some reason; or rather it's easy to mess up. figured if I was going to get some anyways, I might as well see what hte fuss was about for myself too. From the first bite to the last, we could see that care and thought went into putting this meal together and making sure that this wasn't just a run-of-the-mill-why-the-hell-did-we-pay-for-this type of meal,. True, this is more common when you're not feeling well, but sometimes this is just good comfort food too. read more

I've never craved for congee ever... but I've been craving for this lately. Congee to me is 'sick people food', because when I was growing up, you only eat congee when you're too sick to consume flavorful food. BUT, after my nail tech recommended me about this place, I thought, why not. Their congee is thick, not watery. It is so flavorful and so filling. I could not finish the whole entire bowl so I had to take it to go. I forgot to write the view for this restaurant so I'm pulling details from my memory. I got the congee with crab and cheese, and my boyfriend had the one with beef. It was so good to the point my boyfriend asked me when do I want to go back. read more

Craving for their congee upon seeing in Yelp. I love rice porridge. I grew up in the country that it is considered a meal , with all the garnishes we placed on top of it or with it... It just delish. The place is empty when we walked in, it is a late Saturday dinner for us and they'll be closing in an hour. We were hungry after watching a movie , temperature outside is at low 50's ....this is the perfect spot. The food did not disappoint us. It comes in big serving. If they offer food aside than porridge, e.g roll, chicken that could match with it, one bowl can be shared by two. It comes with standard Korean side dishes, kimchi, hunger, daikon and the shredded beef. We learned that the watery radish ( daikon) is to cleanse the palette, pretty interesting. The shredded beef has soy sauce flavor for added taste in the porridge. Enjoyed my beef and mushroom porridge. It is so tasteful. Heavenly! My husband enjoyed his shrimp porridge too. Even without side dishes, it is good enough. My one star was taken out for their pricing. It is expensive comparing to a traditional Chinese congee. I am thinking if the price difference was for the natural and healthy ingredients they advertising they're using (which makes the difference in taste!). I'll come back and will try their other variety. This is now my favorite congee spot. read more

These Korean congees are delicious! Congees (or rice porridges) are known to be bland food for the sick. The Korean version of congee is really flavorful but not overwhelming. I've never heard of Bonjuk until I heard a few people talking about it on yelp. They've been open for more than 10 years apparently. I ordered 3 bowls to go: chicken with oriential ingredients (doesn't come with ginseng anymore), abalone with mushroom, and bulgogi with octopus. By the time I washed my hands and went to the kitchen to grab a bowl, 2 of the 3 congees were gone and my family really enjoyed it. I was left to only try the bulgogi with octopus and it was fantastic! I love the little sides that comes with the dish. The containers are microwavable, but they look super flimsy. All I need are those Chinese sweet fried dough and Chinese dried up pork flakes and I am a happy camper. Though I think prices are super inflated, I will definitely come back when I'm feeling under the weather. Also, grab a business card, they have the entire menu on the back of it. P.S. Lady in the front is super duper nice, but her English is very limited. It took a couple of tries to ask her if she can write the name of the congees on the containers. Should have google translated. haha. read more

The juk was hugeeee and piping hot. It's the perfect food for someone who is feeling under the weather. I ordered the beef and seaweed after. I personally looooove soup and I feel like juk and soup go hand in hand. At other places, I always get the clay pot porridge. This place serves Korean juk. The juk was filled with ground beef & lots of seaweed. I felt it was under seasoned and okay. However, the porridge comes with a variety of side dishes to keep you interested. My friend ordered the veggie and I thought hers was better. Overall, I would only come here if I am really craving this specific type of juk. It's very pricey for something so simple. read more

Some expensive ass rice and water with ingredients, but bonjuk shows why the preparation and execution matters even though the dish is simple. We go to italian restaurants and fork up $20+ for cacio e pepe or carbonara, so why not show the same appreciation for well executed simple, traditional korean dishes? Bonjuk is one of those places when you don't mind, and should, pay for quality congee when you want or need it. Not an everyday place for me, but when my friends or I am sick, or when it's winter season, it's a place I frequent to get the fix. Will be back! read more

The best place in the area for korean style porridge. When your friend or family member is sick this is the korean food to pick up for them. Love the abalone and chicken porridge. They give you seasoning on the side, and it comes out piping hot. It really hits the spot when your sick, cold or just hungry. The amount they give you is so generous. Packaging is nice too, so it makes the perfect gift/food package to deliver for others when you want to care for them. read more

I've walked by this place many times on my way to and from BCD, but I've never eaten there until now. And can I just say, what the heck took me so long to venture inside?! Silly me. Bon Juk is the perfect place to go when you're feeling a little under the weather or you're looking for something comforting to eat. The decor is simple and nice. The staff is friendly and attentive, but not overbearing. My friend and I stopped in for dinner and the place was empty save for one person who left shortly after we came in. I think they get a lot of their business from phone orders because a good amount of people kept coming in and out picking up their orders. I ordered the kimchi and octopus juk and it was DELICIOUS. It was thick, flavorful and had generous helpings of octopus. The juk was topped with ground black sesame and toasted sesame seeds. The sesame really added to the flavor of the juk. The juk also comes with banchan (kimchi, beef brisket and a chili paste). Take some and mix it into your juk. You're welcome. It's a bit pricy for rice porridge, but the portions are huge and you get refills of the banchan. I would definitely come here again! This place will definitely be my new winter restaurant. Ahhhh, I can see it now. Me, inside eating my huge bowl of delicious juk while the wind is howling and the snow is falling outside. What a beautiful sight. read more

I had the beef and vegetable juk -- it could've used more meat to be honest, but if you add some of the accompaniments into the congee it comes alive. Mix it up very well. Portion size is very big and the juk gets the best taste towards the bottom of the bowl read more
