5 stars SOLELY for the Kalbi Tang…read more The quality of the meat is absolutely bomb. I love pho, but Kalbi Tang is a Astro up in general and here at Daeho is another step up Kalbi Tang primarily because of the meat flavor and thickness. Not a big fan of the glass noodles and still giving the dish 5 stars. The quantity of meat is also solid. This will fill you up no doubt, it better be for near $30. The rest of the food here for me is meh. Too much foo foo. The banchan is average. Service might be spotty, you have to wave people down but they are always friendly. After ordering, the food comes generally fast. Kalbi Tang!!!

I ordered the dumpling tofu soup. As a vegetarian, it's very difficult to get delicious Korean food, but this was so good! The dumplings were really soft and the soup had a great flavor. It comes with a bowl of rice. The portions are plentiful, so come hungry! My friend got the Mixed tofu soup which he didn't like as much (wanted more meat).They also got the Bulgogi Bibimbap and order of the bulgogi which they enjoyed. I will definitely be visiting again!

All You Can Eat AYCE Korean BBQ. I've been looking for a new…read moremainstay since Palace has dropped significantly in my opinion. And this spot hits the spot. I was worried about the price because of its location in downtown Bellevue, but at ~50 a person and for the quality and quantity I received it is far worth. I never had to wait very long to get sat, and the entrance is a little hard to find. It's located upstairs a separate retail area. The ambiance is only decent, but it's not crazy loud. The service is prompt, but most of the ordering is done on the iPad anyway. You can order whatever you want, including rice, lettuce, etc. You also get one wagyu per person. The pork jowls and marinated kalbi are my favorite. If you like squid I highly recommend getting that too. The banchan side dishes are copious and refillable. Our biggest qualm is that grill could be hotter. Perhaps it is a means of controlling your pacing, but we want the meat NOW! Haha They do charge extra if you don't finish your food, but that's never happened to us.

Woobling Korean BBQ was honestly just okay for me. I came mainly for the AYCE and chose the lowest…read moretier, which was probably my mistake. For $40+, the meat quality wasn't bad, but the slices were super thin (looked like meat for hotpot) and cooked way too fast. I'd leave the meat on the grill for maybe 15 seconds and it would already start getting charred. That part could honestly be user error on my end, so I'd still be willing to give this place another try. I will say their banchan was really good and probably one of the highlights of the meal. Overall, I just left feeling a little disappointed, especially for the price. If you do decide to come here for AYCE, I'd probably recommend going for one of the higher tiers to get a better experience.

I visited a different location many years ago, so it's been a while since I've been back. I had…read moresome bibimbap and some kimbap. The kimbap was pretty good and I think if I were to come back, this is what I would order. It was a good portion size as well. I did not like the bibimbap which really is saying something. When I go to a new Korean place, I usually try to get bibimbap just to set a baseline of what I can expect for other food, so given that this bibimbap was not very good really says something. It was a bit crowded for dinner, but we luckily didn't have to wait for long to get a table. The parking was pretty easy and the staff were also friendly too. Overall, I'm a bit disappointed because this was not nearly as good as the last time I had it.

I love, love, love Crawlspace!…read more While I've tried many items on the menu - the North Shore Shrimp, the Crawlburger, the curry special, the tacos - I always go back to the Korean fried chicken sandwich. I am hopelessly addicted. It is crunchy on the outside, tender chicken, juicy without being greasy and an incredible array of savory flavor it is the best fried chicken sandwich I've eaten. The butter mochi is a "must" for any salted caramel fan. The cake is soft, light, and delish but that caramel sauce is to die for. Just delicious!! I love the cocktails. Yes, they are not inexpensive but pretty much the same price everywhere else on the Island. I find them to be delicious and balanced. They serve a killer Hemingway daiquiri. I have always had great service here. The staff is friendly! When they get busy the service will slow. And they do get busy, especially around 6-8 PM ramping up during the 5 PM hour. But as long as I have a drink in hand I am happy.

Our drinks were almost the same price as the food, and the total came out close to $100 (with tip and taxes), not worth it in my opinion. I don't mind paying more if the flavors are exceptional, but here it felt like we were just paying Mercer Island prices rather than for standout food. Crawspace Wings (Garlic Buffalo): The food came out very quickly, which usually makes me question how fresh it is. It tasted like it may have been prepped ahead of time and reheated, then tossed in sauce. There was no real garlic flavor, just standard buffalo. Mac Salad: This tasted a bit off, almost like it had been sitting for a while. I don't mind that it's served cold since that's expected, but the flavor was bland and underwhelming. Bulgogi Tacos: The portion of meat was generous, which I appreciated. However, the meat itself was quite salty. Based on other reviews, it seems like the flavor can swing between too sweet or too salty. Either way, it feels overpriced for what you get. Lilikoi Mai Tai: This drink leaned heavily on a nutty flavor, with very little passion fruit coming through. For an island-style cocktail, I expected it to be a bit sweeter and more vibrant, but that wasn't the case. Overall, it missed the mark and wasn't very enjoyable. I wouldn't recommend it unless you specifically prefer a nuttier profile, similar to a Long Island style drink. Overall, I wouldn't return. The pricing doesn't align with the quality or execution.

Came here a second time for some awesome food on a Friday around 5:30pm! While the meat jajangmyeon…read morehad a great taste profile from my last visit, I got their beef jjamppong this time around and wow I wish I got this one earlier! The beef broth is on the verge of being too salty but it's balanced by the sheer amount of black pepper that you can taste and not really see inside the clear broth. There's also a ton of beef and veggies inside, and got noodles for this dish. Noodles themselves were al dente and fresh. Friend and I also shared a side of fried dumplings, which came out very hot and didn't really need the sauce provided on our table, as everything already had enough taste. Staff brought out the food relatively fast - within about 10 minutes for all our dishes - and this is on top of the restaurant becoming a full house throughout the hour we stayed. People even started lining up near the waiting area after a while, that's how packed this place gets!

The lollipop chicken was nothing like the menu's photo. The serving was excessive for an appetizer. The garlic was all concentrated on top and overly potent, while the breading had no flavor.

The dish is very fatty and difficult to finish. Three dishes, three misses. Service was alright. Staff is polished and attentive. The room was surprisingly noisy despite the restaurant having a lot of empty tables.

I also had the sake flight- which was a great way to taste each of the sake! My partner had a beer that he enjoyed. The server was quick, responsive and friendly. The restaurant itself is very very small, kind of a hole in the wall kind of place if you will, but it consistently had people flowing in to eat. The service was quick and the food was so delicious! I will be back again and definitely recommend others try this place! Yum!

I'm eating my way through East Madison street in Seattle from around the arboretum to Madison Park…read moreand Hanok was my first stop. I went two days in a row with friends to try a few different items. This place is great, all of us (4 of us) agree that we'd definitely come back again and again. It's a fairly small restaurant, but they are very accommodating for small parties and try to keep a couple tables open for smaller groups. Groups of 4+ need a reservation. The atmosphere is very quaint and intimate. The people dining next to me leaned over when they saw my food and asked what I got, and that felt very natural (I'm sure it doesn't happen all the time, but it was nice). The service was good. They are kind and welcoming and helpful. Now for the food... first night, my friends and I got the spicy pork bulgogi and (not pictured) the regular bulgogi as an entree, as well as the jeon sampler as an appetizer (which came with a fish and kimchi, as well as a scallion pancake like dish. It was VERY good. I am not super familiar with korean food other than kbbq, so I have nothing to compare it to. However, it was excellent. I loved the spicy pork (it will be my go to). The rice, salad, and miso soup were excellent with it as well. Afterward, I felt satisfied but not absolutely stuffed. Night 2, my friend and I got the Japchae with chicken, the pork mandoo, and I got the salt & pepper pork belly. The pork mandoo was really good, one of the better pan fried dumplings I've ever had. I'm a pork belly fiend, and it was good, I enjoyed it, but the spicy pork was much better. I saw other people get the kimchi fried rice and that looked amazing, as well as the bibimbap in the stone (or clay? i can't remember) pot. I'll definitely be back to try those. With both appetizers, I wish there was a little more, but they're starters, they aren't supposed to be huge, so I was ok with it. Overall, it's on the edge of madison park proper, what's not to like about the location? The food is great, the service is great, the atmosphere is very nice. Highly recommend.
