    Jaeyook Spicy Pork Over Rice / 제육덮밥
    Jenny T.

    Their food was amazing and actually authentic. The food is truly Korean food and the staff are Korean themselves which for some reason is not common in Miami. The boss of this establishment is really accommodating and nice!!! I didn't have the pleasure of going to the store in person but even with the DoorDash order the food was hot and delicious. I took a picture mid devour. I will seek this place everytime I'm in Florida!

    This is my first time trying traditional Korean food and I was thrilled. Everything we had was delicious. They offer a menu with pictures along with their regular menu which was very helpful for the items I didn't know the names to. The restaurant is small but clean and has pictures and sayings all over the walls. It's very fun and charming. The food takes a while to come out but it didn't bother me because everything was fresh and made to order. I can't wait to try more items on the menu.

    One of my fav Korean restaurants. Local business for over 15 years. No frills no fuss just authentic Korean food and friendly service. Their KFC wings are sooooooo good you must get them. The tteokbokki is great to you can add cheese, hotdogs, egg, etc. don't forget to try their soups, gizzards, and their cold noodles. I'm a fan of it all, their banchan is fresh and tasty. The owner is friendly and doesn't speak much English so don't take it personal. Oh And to drink my fav, Makku.

    AUTHENTIC KOREAN FOOD! 1st time here and it didn't disappoint. They had all the classics, good prices, staff was friendly, food came out fast and was very flavorful. I will say, I wish there was add-on options for the ramen (like rice cake, fish cake, cheese). I could definitely tell immediately this was an authentic spot with the cozy vibes and Korean tv haha. I would definitely come back here.

    Really enjoyed the food I got today as a delivery--reminded me of food back from home! The food came nice and hot, and super fresh! Loved how I was able to get the side dishes on the side, and the spice level was just right for the tofu soup! Would totally recommend if you're in the mood for Korean food

    I am so happy I chose to dine at Minji's Cafe!!! I was looking for Korean food and saw them on Yelp... Just wanted a quick lunch and thought this would be a good place for it. It was perfect! The food was excellent. The restaurant is clean. The employees were pleasant. The food was fresh and hot. This could be a go to place for me. I really enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere and reasonable prices!

    Was very hungry for lunch and stopped by here. Pork katsu Very thin but crispy. Rice was good and fluffy. I've never had the cabbage and thousand island dressing before, it was sweet and tangy. Also came with pickled radish which was tangy too. Seafood pancake Delicious. The dipping sauce tasted like ponzu? Which is an acidic soy sauce Overall good. I didn't know most dishes were going to be acidic. It tasted very good though. Will be back to try more dishes.

    Good Korean food is available here. It's not fancy, but you can get an authentic Korean home-cooked-style (Jip bap집밥) meal. This place reminds me of my mom's homemade food. It's not too sweet, salty, or spicy. The price is fairly reasonable. It's a good place to get quick Korean food. 가격도 맛도 괜춘합니다 반찬 안짜고 맛있어요 추천

    Minji's is a nice little spot to get authentic Korean food. It's a cozy restaurant with a friendly staff that greats you as you enter. Great Mom and Pop restaurant in the corner of the shopping plaza. It's got a laid back, casual ambience like a friendly neighborhood restaurant should. The food was pretty good and we weren't waiting long at all. I had the Fried Rice Omelette with beef which is a great choice if you want something that's filling but doesn't feel too heavy. The ramen is pretty good as well. Overall the meals were inexpensive and everyone left feeling satisfied. Parking is pretty open as it's located in the right hand corner of the shopping plaza. It has a small sign to keep your eyes open for but there are always the neon signs to make sure you don't miss it. Business hours are usually from 5pm to 10pm. If you are in the area, give it a try!

    spicy rice cakes, jajangmyeon, and kimchi stew (in the bcak but fabulous)

    The experience here was great. As someone who has never tried korean food, and is pretty picky, I really w enjoyed eating her as it allowed me to have a delightful and memorable first experience. I enjoyed the realness of the restaurant seeing as one can note that it is a homey comfort food type of place. A hidden gem. The service was great as well. Very kind.

    Really good low priced Korean. Multiple choices of appetizers , stews and soups, plates, etc! We had the hot pot bibimbap , spicy pork , and steamed dumplings. Hot hot and pork tasted great but the dumplings were meh... even with that though we were still very happy.. will gladly return

    Mackerel stew

    Authentic hole in the wall Korean restaurant that had good traditional dishes at great prices. The restaurant itself is not very big and it is very simply. There's a TV that plays Korean game shows and the feel of the place is like you're eating at Minji's house. Quality of food was fresh but certain dishes were better than others. There have the traditional appetizers - dukbokki, dumplings and pancake. There are a lot of different types of stew, some BBQ meat options and a few noodle dishes. We started off with the seafood pancake. It was on the undercooked side. I like my pancake thin, loaded with seafood and crispy. This was thick, not a lot of seafood and very doughy/'raw' in the middle. We also ordered a bowl of JaJungMyun. There is a Korean version of this dish and a Chinese version. Typically the Korean version is sweeter and the sauce is thicker, however, Minji's really adds a lot of cornstarch to their sauce. The mackerel stew I thoroughly enjoyed. It was fishy but I loved it. And there was a lot of tofu as well. It wasn't super spicy but there is a kick to it. Very good and highly recommend if you don't mind fish.

    An all time favorite. Fresh side dishes, delicious kimchi stew with chunks of meat and tofu in a fresh broth...great customer service, moving swiftly in the busy restaurant. It's small and quaint, as soon as you walk in it's a concert sound of KBS channel with Korean music videos. I'm all for the culture. I like the handwritten menu on the walls. The presentation of the food was excellent. Bright colors and neatly placed on the platters and bowls. At first I only ordered online and had it sent home, but today was such a treat to experience Minji's cafe. I am officially a regular. I love Korean food!

    I am a fan of Korean BBQ. Recently, a friend celebrated her birthday and our gift to her was to…read moretake her out to eat wherever she wanted. Her choice - Gabose Korean BBQ. I had never heard of this place, but she let us know it was her favorite spot to enjoy this kind of food. They do not take reservations, and we were a group of 6 on a Friday night. You should prepare to wait, but the great news is that their other restaurant / bar next door will serve you drinks while you wait. We didn't wait long, had one beer nextdoor before being called back. Wow just wow when it came to the feast that we had. To be honest I have no idea what we ordered as I was a major passenger princess on this meal and let my friend order her favor things for us. My fave was the short rib but all was excellent. I can see why this is a favorite in the area for this kind of cuisine. Would definitely go back!

Everyone enjoyed the seafood pancakes, Hemul Panjun. The black bean noodles, Jajanmyun, got mixed reviews from our party of six. Personally, I liked them but didn't love them. It was my first time trying this dish. The noodles themselves I enjoyed a lot -- kinda slippery, nice chew. The black bean sauce was very umami and I could easily see this being a comfort food to some. The stars here were really the grilled meats, and this place is unique in that they have charcoal grills. We ordered two of the marinated Kalbi, short ribs, because everyone loved it so much. The marinated chicken was good but would probably skip it next time for more Kalbi. The bulgogi was delicious and would definitely get that again. All of the bonchon, little side dishes, were great too! As far as the vibe, I'd say it's pretty casual and family-friendly. The only thing I find a little scary is when they bring out the hot charcoals to the table. That thing is hot and heavy and has to be brought to the table with extreme care. Sorry no pics! Was carried away eating!

The…read moregreat part is that they have a fan that will suck all the smoke underneath, so you barely smell like bbq after. Of course, the true spotlight is on the food. Because it was my birthday, we opted for the premium menu. Honestly, we tried a variety of meats and although they were all good, when we go back, I'd probably just order the galbi. We did come back months later and this time, for my husband's birthday lunch after we played golf. His brother and dad were also with us and we tried their AYCE Korean fried chicken. AYCE for $15.99, but the catch is you have to order a drink. So, basically, more like $20. Chicken was good and we tried different flavors: soy garlic, spicy, cheese, honey (powder), and plain. The honey was my favorite, but to each their own! We tried to eat as much as we could to get our money's worth, but in the end--in my opinion--it's worth just getting it as an order, which is practically the same price and no requirement to order a drink. Overall, I would go back for kbbq... we have a good amount of kbbq spots in the county and of all the ones we've gone to, Hallyu is part of my top 3. Best tip we can give you: order the honey fries!

So once we ordered the meats and sushi we wanted to start off with, we went over the bar to make our concoction of spices and to get some of the cold items available. Service here is amazing and fast. Our guy had everything on the table by the time we got back. They also have a button on the wall of the table where you can call the waiter anytime you're in need for more food items. My favorite meat by far was the beef bulgogi. It is so flavorful you really do not have to add anything else on the beef! Only down side, all the sides are add-ons so keep in mind you will be paying extra if you want fried rice with your food. They also currently have a Groupon so definitely a great deal to check out. I feel like it's worth the money.
