    The combo of mul naengmyun (cold noodle) and LA galbi
    JungYeon C.

    The food is good and I had cold noodle on a hot summer day. It was really busy when I went so we had to wait a bit but it was good. I wish the combo for cold noodle and la galbi portion was bigger for the LA galbi. This is place is no tip restaurant so you have to serve yourself.

    Also got the seafood pancake, incredible crispy, great amount of seafood. Classic cold noodles very refreshing on a hot day. Almost sweet. Beef soup very savory, great amount of meat

    We are fans. It's a self serve spot which suits our needs for casual dining these days with a toddler in tow. High chairs available. Non breakable utensils, cups and plates. The little one enjoys the water and bone broth dispenser for her all you can sip desires. I usually get the galbi tang to share with the little one and my husband gets the spicy pork. Portions are large and shareable. Food comes out quick and piping hot. Byob with an opener available in the utensil area. Municipal lot out front but don't forget to pay at all hours.

    THIS IS MY FAVE / GO TO GALBITANG SPOT The meat here is sooooo tender and falls right off the bone!! Portion size is also very generous here!! What not to love?! We also tried their muksal gul which tastes like the viet pork chop but meat also very tender and juicy Summer time I usually get their cold noodles and those are also great here too!! I usually go to their original location but the fort lee location is just as good but only downside is parking is a bit hard to find here We got free japchae which was a big bonus too! My fave thing about this place is their unlimited free collagen beef bone soup!! You also order right at the cashier so you don't have to tip here

    Came here for lunch and it was one of those places where you order at the counter and they give you a number and you pick up your dish when your number is called. They had unlimited soup and hot drinks that you could refill at your own. And at the end of the meal you can get one popsicle to walk away with for free. Food was good! Got the Don Katsu. Overall had a good meal and i'd come here for more in the future.

    my friend recommended this place for lunch as we wanted cold noodles (nangmyeon) since it was hot out there's limited dedicated parking for the restaurant in front of the cafe next to the restaurant as well as street parking directly in front of the restaurant this place is like a cafeteria/food court style where you order and pay up front and then wait for the staff to call your number and you go pick it up. self serve water and soup (absolutely delicious). once youre done you go and return the dishes/tray to the dirty bin. because of this, they don't suggest any tip and actually press 0 tip when paying which i respected food here is relatively cheap in price and comes out fairly quickly the quality is not bad and you get a good amount overall, i think if you're in the area and want decent , well priced meal this is the place to go! otherwise, there are better places to eat but it'll be pricier and may be less quantity

    Guessing this is a new location in Fort Lee which is awesome. I was here after a morning run for an early lunch. It's one of those places you order at a kiosk and go pick up your food when it's ready and your number is called. There was a gentleman there who I assumed was the manager/owner who was super friendly and helping everyone get their food and bring back their plates. Food was good! Got the seafood pancakes and naengmyun noodle specials and everything was really good. Maybe it was cause I was so hungry after my run but nonetheless it was great! The place itself is standard though looked clean overall so that was appreciated. Overall had a great meal and recommend for anyone in the area looking for buckwheat noodles/naengmyun.

    Came here twice in one weekend bc it was so good! We tried something different both times, I really enjoyed every dish. It's a self-serve style restaurant so you order at the front first and pick up your food when your number is called. Everyone working is very nice and the service is quick. The restaurant was a great vibe, not loud or crazy at all. I'll definitely come back here again.

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.

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.

I found out much later that the owner was the one actually serving and cooking for us. We were able to walk in with a party of ten on labor day. Super accommodating staff, owner knows what he's doing. Never caught his name unfortunately We ordered 4 different combos and dude was able to cook for all of us at the same time. Everyone left stuffed and I even had leftovers for the next day. I didn't get to eat everything but here's what I tried. The duck combo, pork combo, nayengmen (cold noodle I butchered the spelling I know sorry) and corn cheese. They don't do the brisket sauce like they do in la. Instead I think it was a mixture of miso and vinegar? With onions soaking in it. Paired perfectly with the pork. I've never had anything like it before. The thin cut pork belly was probably my favorite out of all the pork. The marinated duck combo was pretty interesting. It kinda felt like a ttkekbokki dish? But a little light on the rice cakes. The duck itself tasted like some really good charcuterie. It was a little too spicy for me but super good. We ended up opting to throw everything into the fried rice at the end and it made for some perfect late night leftovers that I'm enjoying as I write this review. Lovely place, hope they do well. V fast paced environment and loud, they get your food out, and you can tell that a lot of hard work and love goes into the food. Thank y'all

It was cool seeing him in action and our group got to chatting with him as well. He's super approachable and you can tell he loves his job. I highly recommend getting the pork belly and duck.

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!

    Kim Ga Meon Ok is a fantastic, relatively affordable Korean spot and definitely a local favorite!…read moreThey have two locations (one in Fort Lee and this one in Palisades Park), but I usually visit the Pal Park location right across from King Sauna on Commercial Ave. The setup here is entirely self-service. You order at the front and pick up your food when it's ready. It's actually a really convenient system, and since there is no table service, there's no expectation to leave a gratuity. The food itself is consistently good. The parking lot is very, very small and shared with the cafe next door, so parking can be a squeeze. Because it's so popular, it gets very busy during prime dining hours. Even when I've ordered takeout, there can sometimes be a decent wait to get your food so I recommend order online or over the phone ahead. They do charge a little extra if you pay with a credit card to cover the fees. If you visit during the summer months, you absolutely have to try the Naeng Myeon (cold noodle soup) or the Bibim Naeng Myeon (spicy cold noodles). They really hit the spot and are incredibly refreshing. Highly recommend!

They rotate the banchans and we get something a little different each time we go and they're all very good. One thing that really stands out is their steamed eggs. It's fluffy, hearty, flavorful and it's always my kids' favorite. The meats are of good quality and I'm obsessed with their aged kimchi which comes with any pork order so make sure you request it. The service is great as they come and grilled the meats for you and they always grill it to perfection. The only downside side is I remembered they used to take reservations if you have a party if 7 or more but this is no longer the case. We wanted to come here for a party of 8 on the weekend and they don't take reservations on weekends so we almost never make it as a big group because there's normally a very long wait time unless you come super early. This is my go to spot for Korean bbq and I think price is reasonable compared to other options considering the high quality of the food they offer. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic experience.

The meat was fresh and tender, and grilled up beautifully alongside some mushrooms, garlic, and daikon on the tabletop grill. Loved that they threw in fresh herbs (rosemary/thyme) on the meat too -- nice touch. Banchan was plentiful and kept coming, so you're never short on sides. 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. Will definitely be back to try out the intestine options.
