    Onion Rings
    Cici M.

    Small cozy restaurant so be sure to curb your expectations, but don't let the looks fool you! The service was A1, the servers were every attentive. I really must admit .. every single thing I had was delicious, even down to the random onion rings I was in the mood for. The Mac and cheese was cheesy but not overly, the creamed spinach was good but not something to rave about, the thick bacon TOP TIER, and last but mostly not least the rib eye for 2 as quite perfectly made. I would 100% recommend this restaurant and I'll be back !

    Believe the hype. My husband and I heard about Prime and Beyond from lots of different friends and acquaintances and finally decided to make a special visit. First impressions are unimpressive - it doesn't look like much from the outside and it's surprisingly small and cozy on the inside - but this seemingly humble spot serves up some delightful meats. Both dry- and wet-aged are available, the butcher-fresh cuts are available for purchase to take home. One of the unique things about the menu here is that there's a clear infusion of Korean dishes, like the kimchi stew. I thought the cost of some side dishes like kimchi seemed a little steep (especially since they're typically free in traditional Korean restaurants), but it was intriguing to see such things served alongside steakhouse offerings. We opted for a kimchi carbonara to start, and that was truly intriguing. The pasta was studded with pieces of bacon and slick with a rich and cheesy sauce with a spicy fermented funk that could only be ascribed to a touch of gochujang. We'd never tried anything like it anywhere else and absolutely loved this interpretation of a classic pasta dish. If there were any notes about our meal, it's that the fat cap on the edge of our steak was thicker than we typically prefer. But I'd argue that was on us since servers bring by each cut of steak for inspection before it heads to the grill. In this and countless other ways, service was seamless. Other small and random notes: - Reservations are only made over the phone. - This restaurant is BYOB! Had we but known, we would've come prepared. Don't make the same mistake we did and bring your own bottle. - Finding parking in this area can be a madhouse; thankfully, there's a small parking lot out front.

    They reminded us about 2hr limit for staying couple of times, during the reservation and when we were ordering. FYI, the place was empty. For lunch, they only serve until 2 so get there early. Food was OK, but I was expecting better for the price. We had different cuts of steaks and wet/dry aged. To be honest, I couldn't taste the dry age flavor and was surprisingly chewy. Leads me to believe these are choice cuts.

    Grilled octopus

    My friends and I came here for the lunch service this past Saturday as a party of 5 and a baby to celebrate our birthday. Ive been meaning to check this place out for a while. Glad I did. The lunch menu is very affordable compared to their dinner menu. We started with grilled octopus, crab cake, and dry aged crust for appetizers. All was scrumptious. I especially loved the side of pickled red onion and sauerkraut. Was reallly really good and helped cut the grease. The octopus was so good with the orange sauce that it came with. Then we had the ribeye, lamb chop, and ny bone in. All mains came with some rice, a fried egg, and side salad. We were all very full and very satisfied with our meals. Only note is that their ribeye was on the thinner side. Maybe due to it being lunch. But it was very juicy. I think lunch service was a really good value. And the sides were all geared to the korean palette which I thought was a nice touch and everything was much less salty than at traditional steak houses. The ambiance wasn't super fancy or anything. It did feel a little bit cramped in there. But i would return.

    Never disappointing. If craving steak near Fort Lee, Leonia Bergen County area - other than Ruth's Chris - this is the place. All the usual menu - Tomahawk, Porter House, skirt steak- as great as any other steak house. Their side menus are also worth the try, especially the creamed spinach and mushrooms. It is BYOB, another reason to visit.

    Came here with a coworker for lunch since the pricing is much more approachable than dinner. We were seated right away, and I appreciated that they offer parking, even if it's limited. We ordered the lunch box special and the wet-aged ribeye. Both were incredibly tasty. The lunch box is huge, definitely something you could share or take home for later. The space is cozy and well packed with tables, so it can feel a bit tight, but the food more than makes up for it. They also have a butcher shop inside where you can buy high-quality meat to take home, which is a great bonus. Great lunch spot overall and I'd absolutely come back.

    It was a great taste steaks

    parking not big so as Restaurant space however meat and steaks are great. I recommend you to try those steaks.

    Kimchi Carbonara and bone marrow soup in the cup
    Jeri L.

    The food here is absolutely delicious! We are meat lovers and have been to numerous steakhouses in NJ, NYC, Houston, Dallas and San Antonio! We loved our wet boneless ribeye, cooked perfectly, I wanted my steak rare plus, exactly as ordered and the medium rare steak came out exactly as expected! The quality of meat is excellent! Also we tried the kimchi carbonara, it was phenomenal, so tasty, a MUST TRY, and the bone marrow soup was delicious, not too salty either! It is a BYOB so don't forget your spirits/wines! Also don't be put off by the 2 hour dining time limit, it's a smaller restaurant so they do need table turnovers. We did not feel rushed at all.

    Took quite some time to finally have the chance to try this place out after hearing a lot of good word of mouth. However I'm glad I was able to indulge in this steakhouse/butcher shop hybrid restaurant. The one thing to keep in mind is that portions here are insane. The house salad was big enough for 3 or 4 people to share. The fried calamari was big enough to make you full unless you have a few others on the table to enjoy the tasty dish with. One order of bacon contains 2 gigantic slices, so you get the point. The (good) problem with a place like this is that if you are into trying a lot of their delicious appetizers et al you'll likely get full pretty fast. One appetizer that is worth the weight though is the onion soup. The broth is not salty and the cheese was incredibly savory and indulgent. The cheese really carried the flavor (and not leaning on a salty soup) and it was so incredibly delicious. Sure this made me pretty damn full already but it was absolutely worth it. I would strongly recommend it. The steak I ordered was the 14 oz boneless NY Strip. This steak felt way bigger than 14 oz, not that it's a bad thing but it was definitely very heavy. The meat quality was very good and the flavor was excellent. The homemade sauce was also very nice. I probably would have enjoyed this more if the appetizers didn't stuff me to the brim, but it was still absolutely delicious. To be honest I expected nothing less from a butcher shop hybrid. Too bad I was too full to enjoy dessert but the overall experience was amazing and very indulgent. I would absolutely recommend this place for anyone who's a meathead and has no problem eating giant slabs of meat. Keep in mind my 14 oz piece of meat was on the 'smaller' side - I saw other tables order bigger cuts and they were absolutely immense - so be mindful of what you order and how much you can actually enjoy ....

    Kimchi Fried Rice With Skirt Steak
    Gina Jiyoung L.

    The best meat quality for the size & price- I love this place (with a passion)+ for lunch they give you an egg too The dinner steaks are amazing as well- came 2 weeks ago and back again if this isn't an obsession idk what is (and waitresses are super sweet!)

    Patrick W.

    TLDR: A little family run spot in Fort Lee. Think your classic steakhouse with a slight Korean twist. Shrimp cocktail. Skirt steak. BYOB - you're welcome. To be honest, the first time I tried Prime & Beyond; didn't love it. We tried it again and we've really gotten to like this spot. Really the only thing that gives the hint of Korean is they have kimchi fried rice on the menu as a side and you get a scallion salad with your steak. They have pretty classic offerings but the shrimp cocktail is what stood out. First, these are huge - so bouncy and perfectly cooked. While most are just kind of poached in salt water, these are pre-seasoned which makes them quite unique. Steaks. We've done the dry-aged cuts which they have in a case when you walk in. These are great but the "go to" has been the skirt steak. It's quite sharable for two hungry guys or three normal people. It's pre-sliced, super tender with this nice sauce they make. I typically have leftovers which go great on noodles, thrown in a fried rice or just eat it at room temp the next day. Plus I get to bring some nice bottles of wine and it's really not too much damage on your wallet. If you're in the area, you should 100% check this place out. Snapple Fact: They wholesale to a lot of your favorite KBBQ spots around town. They know their meat.

    Wet Aged Ribeye for One
    Marta T.

    Back again and can't say one bad word. That kimchi fried rice is always amazing. We haven't had a bad steak here. Service was great. We will be back.

    Shrimp cocktail, it tasted and looked like overcooked shrimp that was thrown back in the fridge..

    How can I make reservation? No one answered the phone and asked me to insert sth access code?!

    Would anyone recommend coming here for their 30th birthday dinner?

    If you plan on having a lot of people then maybe not. It's a small place and very tight seating. Maybe you should go in and see the table arrangement first. You'll definitely need to hold a reservation if you decide to go here.

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.

In the past, whenever I went, it would take forever (!!!!!) to get our check and pay. It was so frustrating but this time around, it was a bit faster. It's a win-win situation because we get to pay and leave and the restaurant has another table for customers. Though on the pricier side, Wooga does check off all the boxes of: -amazing meat quality -amazing & attentive service -they don't skimp on banchans (side dishes that I heard other restaurants are starting to limit) -several meat combo options -best Korean steamed egg in the North Jersey area We tried the thinly sliced oxtails, which were really good but pretty pricey for $38cash/$39.90card for 11oz of it. There are some things that are inconvenient (long waits, very small parking lot) but it's easy to overlook them once you have a meal at Wooga. Things to know before you go: -Their menu is updated on their website if you want to check that out before you go. -The earlier you go, the better your chance of being seated quickly. Weekends are definitely a longer wait, so plan ahead. -Their parking lot is small so it fills up super quickly, so you'll have to park across the street and play Frogger (maybe you might be too young to know this reference?) to cross the 4 lanes of Palisade Ave. -When you arrive, make sure to check in with the host/hostess so that you could get a pager to know when your table is ready. Your turn can come pretty fast sometimes depending on the timing.

They also serve korean hot tea along side the dishes. My special beef rib soup was very light and clear but full of beef flavor. Little touch with salt and pepper with pickled veggies and rice paired with very well. The meats were very tender and flavorful as well.

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.
