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!

Paik's Noodle is a Korean Chinese food chain with numerous locations nationwide. I delayed going…read morethere for a long time since our area has good local restaurants serving Korean Chinese food. I finally decided to give them a try. The place is roomy with very grey walls and very red signs, a bit empty when we went. Service was friendly. Ordering is done at the counter, and they bring the food to you. Overall, the food is just ok. Trusted foodie friends gave the same opinion. We won't be returning. The Food: Sweet & Sour Pork, $19.45 - 3 Stars Fried pork with sweet and sour sauce is one of the popular Korean Chinese food dishes. Theirs is ok. The pork piece inside is a skinny strip of meat, visible in photos. A bit chewy. Ok enough but not noteworthy. Soontofu Jjamppong, $19.45 - 2.5 Stars This is their spicy noodle soup (pork, squid, mussels, vegetables) with soft tofu added. The menu/online photo shows broth over the tofu, and I thought the tofu is cooked with the broth. I love soft tofu soup and decided to try it. Nope. My photo shows the tofu is added as a topping at the end, cold, with some peppers on top. What a disappointment. The rest of it was as expected. Beef Jjamppong, $17.45 - 2 Stars Beef and vegetables noodle soup in beef broth. Their online photo looks a lot more scrumptious with a pile of beef on top. My photo is a mixed pile of everything. The beef wasn't tender. The broth isn't particularly beef. Hubby was annoyed. The food in the restaurant vs the food photos online is like fast food hamburger photos. What we receive does not look like the photo even when dining in. I debated on giving them 2 Stars but decided to be nice and rounded up instead.

This spot seems to have been around for a long time, hence the number of reviews already posted…read more It's a hole-in-the-wall location, or in this case a hole-in-the-side since it faces the street but isn't that noticeable. I decided to come here with a friend on a Friday night around 6pm, and got here using street parking that was hard to come across. You could probably stay for a long time here just enjoying conversations with friends; the inside feels like a fine-dining steak restaurant mixed with bar-like noise levels but instead of chatter you hear today's most popular K-pop music from LE SSERAFIM, for example. The menu is expansive and covers everything from bento boxes to specialty sushi to a really large ramen bowl that you can try finishing in half an hour for a $100 gift card to use at the restaurant. I got a tonkatsu bento, and my friend got their chicken katsu bento. We both weren't too satisfied with what we got: - We each got California rolls as our sushi side. Pretty standard but filling. You can sub for spicy tuna rolls for $1 more. - Sides like the miso soup and salad were served in separate bowls sometime before our bento boxes were served. Standard for both as well but I love me some salad dressed in sweet sauces. - The tempura and fried selection was one of our favorites. Gyoza was all right, but the shrimp tempura was fresh, hot and crispy. There was one tempura that I thought would be a potato croquette but then ended up tasting more like a hash brown. It was also a little thinner than what I remember a potato croquette being. - Our biggest issue was, sadly, the katsu itself - for both of our bento boxes. Regardless of meat, the outer coating was pretty hard, so much so it even scratched the roofs of our mouths when we ate it. Neither meat was particularly juicy though I slightly preferred my friend's chicken katsu over the tonkatsu I got; it was ever so slightly juicy and my mouthfeel could only subtly pick that up. Service overall was great; we got our orders promptly, water was refilled without us asking, and our server would ask how we were doing at times. This was still a great experience, just the food we got wasn't great. If I come back, I'll try their sushi and maybe even risk the huge ramen bowl.

There were a few people ahead of me at lunchtime on a Saturday, and after a short wait, my fried chicken wings were ready. The menu says the fried chicken comes with fries and pickled radish, but they only included fries, so I asked for the radish at the counter. I'm not sure if they don't include it anymore, or just forgot. The chicken was freshly fried and crispy; the wings were really good. There is plenty of seating in the Lincoln South Food Hall, so you can easily find a place to sit and enjoy your food, as well as other food options such as pizza, sushi, burgers, tacos, and bubble tea in the hall. It's pretty clean and also has wifi.

woomadang has quickly become my favorite k-bbq spot in all of washington! after coming back from…read morekorea and trying about 6 different kbbq spots in the area, i've been twice in a row here now and i have ALL good things to say about this place. their meat quality is great, marinade and flavors taste amazing for marinaded meats. they have a great selection of options and 3 tiers of choices that each unlock more items so as long as your group selects the same tier, you can get exactly what you want off the menu. we always go for the course B, which unlocks stuff like rib fingers, steak, LA kalbi, and many of the seafood options. note that per order you can order 4-5 items per round as you please (no wait time in between the rounds) in the 100 minute dine time, and unlimited sides or side refills!) aside from that, their sides selection is amazing. aside from the regular banchan (which includes tteokbokki, gamja salad, kimchi, odaeng, etc. all the good stuff) you can order cheese corn in a cup to go on the grill, steamed egg, and sundubu jiggae as well! so many great options for sides all included in the standard menu. based on your height, kids or shorter folds can eat discounted or free (~5ft 50% off, and so on, there's a height measure up front which i found delightful) there's also great music, karaoke nights, and great ambiance over all here. ventilation is also excellent and the whole place is quite energetic without being over the top. great for friends or families! price is very reasonable, especially given how expensive options in the area are for non-AYCE kbbq. this is a stand out spot! we normally don't have to wait to be seated, and also- if i could highlight one part of the experience as consistently excellent- the service. the service is amazing. super friendly staff that recognized me even on just my second visit. they're super helpful and attentive, and for my group, we even got a haemul pajeon and delicious sujeonggwa slushie on the house (didn't sway the review, but just really highlights the excellent service)! overall: 10/10 quality: 10/10 price: 10/10 i *will* be back! highly recommend you check them out too!

They also noticed it was someone's birthday and took the initiative to bring out a slice of cheesecake. The premium marinated kalbis were good although a little too sweet for me. The chadol and beef belly were good. The scallops were not so much, and I wouldn't necessarily order the ribeye again only because it's not what I'm looking for in kbbq. They have ssamjang and garlic if you ask.

We recently dined here with a party of 8, and it was a wonderful experience overall. What impressed…read moreus right away was that we called and made a reservation only 15 minutes before arriving on a Saturday, and the restaurant was still able to accommodate us in a private dining room. That made the evening feel extra special and comfortable for our group. We ordered a variety of dishes, and our favorites were definitely the Mongolian Beef, Shrimp Dumplings, Hot Seafood Noodle Soup, and Kung Pao Prawns- all were flavorful, well-prepared, and highly recommended. The Garlic Crispy Chicken and Singapore Noodles were also good. The only dish that didn't stand out to us was the Chicken Fried Rice, which was our least favorite of the meal. The service was excellent from start to finish. A special shoutout to the host, who was incredibly kind, helpful, and attentive throughout our visit. Parking was convenient as well, with a nearby garage offering the first 3 hours free. My only reason for not giving 5 stars is that the pricing felt a bit on the higher side, especially considering the portion sizes seemed smaller compared to other Chinese restaurants we've visited. Overall, a great dining experience with delicious food, outstanding hospitality, and excellent accommodation for large groups.

Food was good and came out on time. What we got: 2 glass of sangria Spicy crispy fish fillet (4/5) Good flavor nice and crispy. Not spicy enough tho. Combination chow mein (3.5/5) Good flavor; nothing crazy but it was good. Eggplant and green bean (3.5/5) Good flavor as well; but again; nothing crazy about it. They serve good foods; but it is in the middle of Belleveu so you will be paying that "Belleveu" price. Our bill were around $140 for the two of us. Which i think you can get the same kind of foods at other chinese restaurant for probably a bit more than half the price Would i recommend it? If you willing to pay that much; sure; their foods are good and we like it and hospitality was good I just dont think the price point is very balanced. Maybe they use better quality ingredients? I dont know; just couldnt tell since the dishes we order tasted just like something we could get at other chinese restaurants.

Overall had a great time here and would come back!…read more Food The premium bento was $20 after tax. It came filled with plenty of food, enough for two servings for me, and came out fresh and hot. My favs were the pickled cabbage, stir fried fish cakes, and sesame ball. I would not get the chicken again as I found it dry. I liked the fish cakes a lot and in the future would consider buying a container separately. I look forward to trying other menu items Service We ordered on the screen but the food came out quickly. The minimal staff interaction we did have was pleasant. You do not bus your own table Ambiance Very clean and casual. Decor reminded me of a cafe almost.
