This is my go-to spot whenever it's raining or cold outside. Their Samgyetang (ginseng chicken…read moresoup) has such a clean and refreshing flavor, and the spicy chicken stew is just as delicious. We usually order the Bossam, Jokbal (both regular and spicy), and the duck meat, and they are consistently great. Today, we tried the Kalguksu (noodle soup) for the first time, and it was very delicious. The service is always friendly and welcoming, and the food is prepared so neatly. Highly recommended if you're looking for a satisfying, clean meal!

Their signature dish is samgyetang. The broth is rich and deeply flavorful, and it has that comforting, nourishing taste. It's especially great when you're feeling under the weather. The galbitang is also very good. Looking at the menu, it seems like prices haven't increased much over the past few years. Compared to other Korean restaurants nearby, it's definitely more affordable. Service was decent overall.

For lunch today, We ordered soy marinade short ribs, squid and kimchi savory pancake, and grilled…read morefish. The short ribs came out first, but on the way out of the kitchen, the server dropped onto the floor. Me and my son watched as she picked it up, took them back inside, rinsed them off with water, and then ate the meat. We waited, assuming there would be some kind of explanation or apology, but she didn't said a word. About halfway through the meal, the squid and kimchi pancake finally arrived. Since it took so long to come out, we asked why it was taking so much time. She explained that it was taking longer because the main kitchen staff had the day off today, which We were understanding of. Then, just as we were finishing our meal, she brought out the grilled fish. We was upset throughout the entire meal today, but we didn't say anything to the staff and even left a 15% tip before leaving. We kept waiting for her to say something about it, but since she never did, I eventually asked the server, "Didn't you drop the meat?" She immediately tried to justify it by saying, "Oh, that? There barely was any meat left on those bones anyway." We just replied, "Ah, is that so?" and left it at that. It really felt like the staff didn't know what they were doing.

We came here needing a quick Korean fried chicken fix. My thing is to always to compare to…read moresomething that I liked. So my base is K.bbq Chicken. I walked in and noticed they do have limited tables. I wouldn't say this is a big group kind of place. Luckily for us, we were a party of 4. I looked at the menu over and over and couldn't really decide what to order. I had the dilemma of trying to feed my kids. So of course something not spicy and some carbs. I ordered the fries and honestly they were a miss. I didn't like that dirty oil flavor on it. I also did the cheese balls expecting some cheese full, but that again was a little mochi like in texture with no cheese pulls and dusted with a sweet cheese powder. It's an acquired taste. Those are some of the ehhh dishes. However the star of the show were the boneless chicken. We did their ddeok bokki mala flavor. Dang, that thing hits! It's very spicy, but in a good strong salty and spicy flavoring. It's also not too runny like other ddeok bokki's I've had in the past. I was thoroughly surprised by that dish. Now back to the boneless chicken, just be extra careful on your first bite. It's oozing with juices and piping hot. I had to open a few ahead of time to peel the meat for my children. They loved it. Now, pro tip, I would order the original again and order a side of the flaming sauce. That was super sweet and spicy. The perfect compliment to the crunchy texture. I also ordered a side of the boned in wings and had the soy spicy flavor. That was really tasty. I would order beer next time bc these flavors were bold and needed a cold beer to cool down the heat. Now, the thing that impressed me the most were the crunch on every single piece of chicken. They are by far one of the most inquire flavors and texture combination I tried. One thing, that made me say, hey I'll come back here again, was their workers. My son accidentally dropped the fork and like a few parents, we would just pick it up and wipe it off and use it again. I know, not everyone will do that. If you have a toddler they can drop that fork like 4 times sometimes. Anyways, the waiter noticed that and quickly brought us a clean new fork. That's some fine dining detail that I have never experienced in a small restaurant before. Kudos for the wait staff on that. One item for improvement is to offer some carb options like rice or noodles. I know it's more bar or finger food, but can't really serve Asian food without rice.

If you're new to 도가니탕, the generous size of the meat and tendon pieces might be a bit surprising. For me, however, the larger cuts were perfect. The accompanying dipping sauce of radish, soy sauce, vinegar, and wasabi was an excellent complement, cutting through the richness of the meat and adding a refreshing contrast. The 반찬 are apparently made in-house, and you can taste the difference. Everything was fresh and well prepared, especially the quality of the 고춧가루 they use. My only gripe? No soju.

It looks like they are under new management per the sign, so they are still getting their foot down-- as they had several tables that needed cleaning up when we entered. However, it was near the end of the evening, so that may explain they had a dinner rush and were catching up. The customer service here was immaculate. I wish we got our server's name but he anticipated our needs and requests before we expressed them-- from refilling our banchan, tea, to letting us know how we can eat a dish we were having for the first time-- he was seriously reading my mind! I never mentioned that I've never had the braised black cod dish before but it was exactly what I was coming in to order! Shout out to our server! Also, it was sooo good, I am still thinking about it 2 weeks later. The cod just melted in our mouths! There wasn't any fishy tastes. It wasn't too salty or sweet. The texture of the daikon on the bottom was perfect-- not too soft, not hard or fibrous. The banchan was also so good! Kimchi was very fresh and I loved the how savory it tasted while still tasting fresh! The onions, seaweed, and beansprouts really complimented the very savory gochujang sauce in the dish. 5/5 would totally recommend if you are in the area! I'm excited to come back to try other dishes!

The pork neck bones were tender, meaty, and practically falling off the bone, while the potatoes were cooked just right and soaked up all that delicious broth. What stood out most was the balance of flavors. The perilla leaves, green onions, and other ingredients added wonderful aroma and depth without overpowering the hearty pork broth. It had the comforting, authentic Korean flavor that makes Gamjatang such a satisfying dish. The Garden Grove location is the original, longtime location, though it seems the Buena Park location may soon become the primary one. Either way, if you enjoy Korean food, I highly recommend giving the Gamjatang a try. It's the kind of dish that leaves you already looking forward to your next visit.
