    SERVICE: 8/10 -Waiters were great and efficient when they were at our table -Was hard to get ahold of them though :,) -Note: there's a 3%(?) card service fee AMBIANCE: 7/10 -Just your standard Korean restaurant interior, clean and spacious but not particularly aesthetic FOOD Buljok Bossam: 8.7/10 -Buljok sauce was good, not too spicy -Bossam was standard, can't go wrong (can ask for fresh garlic to pair with if you want!) Gamja Jeon: 10/10 -SO good. Perfect crispy outside, 쫀득한 (chewy like rice cakes) inside. Would come back just for this dish! Gamjatang: 4/10 -Barely ate this bc was not my style :( -Watery soup consistency, not that spicy, potatoes weren't cooked in the soup for long so p bland, kimchi wasn't aged for long so also bland -Overall didn't have that aged/deep flavor I love about gamjatang :( Model example of good gamjatang is Tosokchon's (located in Palisades Park)

    We came here after visiting Field Station Dinosaurs, which wasn't too far away. Originally, we were planning to go to BCD, but it was crowded, and I wanted to try the jokbal instead. Our eyes were definitely bigger than our stomachs -- we also ordered the seafood pancake, squid rice, and ox bone soup with tendons. The jokbal came out first, and while it was good, I found it a little on the dry side. The seafood pancake was the standout -- probably the best I've had so far, with huge chunks of seafood. The soup was initially served without salt and really needed it, but once we added some, it was much better. They were generous with the tendons, too. The best dish, though, was the squid rice, which sadly came last when we were already too full to enjoy it properly. Next time, I'd just order that and maybe the soup. Overall, the food was delicious and the service was even better. Unfortunately, my 2-year-old only wanted plain white rice, despite all the tasty dishes we had! A quick tip about parking -- don't make the same mistake we did! We paid for a street spot, but there's actually a large free parking lot for all the shops in the area. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the neighborhood.

    I was born in the north, but I grew up in the south. If there's one thing that nobody can argue about it's that we know good food especially food that soothes your soul. If you're looking for soul food from Seoul (I'm sorry I had to do it at least once) then I'd highly recommend checking this place out. I'd argue that Gamjatang is Korea's true soul food and I've had it an unhealthy amount of times after drinking. This place does it excellently and the jokbal is really good too. Definitely more family friendly vibes than late night squabble with your friends, but don't let that detract you from checking it out.

    When did they move?! I had no idea they relocated to the plaza where the BCD Tofu House is. The new spot is so much more spacious, super clean, and has plenty of parking since it's inside the plaza. So convenient! I went to pick up takeout today, thinking it was still at the original location, and that's when I noticed the sign had changed. I can't wait to dine in. The new location looks really nice! I got the regular Ugeoji Gamjatang. This has been my go-to gamjatang spot in New Jersey for a while now, and I've been back multiple times. For anyone curious, Gamjatang is a pork bone stew with dried cabbage and potatoes. It's amazing comfort food during the fall and winter, perfect for chilly weather.

    It's a place you need to come back. The broth is light and flavorful, I love they put the snow fungus with the beef comtang ( beef soup ). It's a lot of meat and tendons are so soft and bounce. They'll refill the broth to your tang( soup hot pot). We couldn't finish the dish and we packed to go. They have the best take out container ( which is completely sealed) We need more people to come to eat for more dishes. Service is quite fast. They are quite busy, don't expect they refilled your tea without your call. Please let them know what you need and they'll do it for you.

    Been to the new location and it is spacious and clean !!!! The best selections are still on the menu, such as gamjatang and the jokbal (pork trotters), but other choices are great too !!!!! We tried beef and tendon in clear broth for 2, and the portion was good - after which we could have porridge with the leftover broth. Highly recommend it.

    Came here for the seafood scallion pancakes and left delighted. It might be my fault that i didnt read the menu before coming bc i didnt realize the two main meat options were pig feet (not my thing) and pork belly (love) . I ended up liking everything and i think if i ate pork feet I would also have enjoyed it. We ordered the regular portion of pork belly and was good, but too much for just two people. Service was fast and helpful. The restaurant is really pretty,.

    Next to BCD Tofu house and sitting at the center of Fort Lee, Gamja Tang-tang is a great authentic spot that excels in its delivery of its two most popular dishes, 1) stew and 2) pig feet. The service is standard and perhaps what you would normally expect, the taste is great but ultimately what also takes the cake is the value you get from here especially as a sit down restaurant. The amount of food with both stew and pork dishes is more than plentiful and tasty to boot. Taste: 4.5/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value for money: 5/5 We had: 1. Seafood Pancake (Haemul Pajeon): This was very good, thick but unfortunately had a couple of overly charred notes 2. Banban Jokbal: This was a half spicy half normal pig feet dish, there are other renditions you could go for as well whether you would like more spicy or less spicy or other iterations, but this was a definite highlight and it fed 4 of us (a large version) 3. Vegetable pork bone stew: This dish is the definition of the feeling of eating at home, for those who know, will know, that this sort of stew is like a home stew and brings you back. That said, the pot is similar to that of a hotpot style pot, and comes with vegetables and pork bone already cooked and ready to eat. This pairs well with white rice. Overall a nice spot! If you bring cash you get up to a 5-7% discount, if you use card, you will be charged a credit card charge.

    Super tasty Korean dishes! The menu is limited but it's great because they seem to specialize in what they make. The seafood pancake was loaded with seafood (mainly squid) and was so crispy on the outside yet soft on the inside. The spicy pork bone soup with seafood was cooked so well. The broth was perfectly seasoned (so savory!) and tasted like they simmered the bone for a while to get the umami flavor. The restaurant itself is very new and clean looking. The decor inside is very warm and inviting. Would come back to try the bossam and other stews!

    The food here was so good! The service was also spectacular. It's a great place for a quick meal or a place to hangout and have a nice meal with friends and family. Would definitely come back in the future.

    Great food, great service, and like family style ambiance! Their bulkokbal is really good! Large portions! We also added gamja jeon and it was really good and crispy!

    The food is pretty good. Not sure it's the best gamja tang in the area, but they have multiple varieties (& add ins). That's unique. Worth a visit or two.

    We use to go to the original location which was probably 1/2 the size but they've moved to a new location with a lot of open space and tables. Interior is modern and comfortable. Service was prompt and efficient. They were busy on a Monday night even at 9pm. Food is a same as before - hearty and delicious. But I did notice they now put the bossam and jokbal over a fire and they no longer serve a Kimchi pancake. Overall a very good 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. 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.

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!

For dipping, you get a choice of garlic scallion sauce, soybean paste (ssamjang), or just salt -- all solid options depending on what you're grilling. Service was attentive and quick to help with the grill and refills without being intrusive. The restaurant has a big dedicated parking lot, which made getting in and out so much easier.

The service was phenomenal from beginning to end. Despite how busy they were, the staff remained friendly, attentive, and efficient.

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.

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.
