Just ordered for delivery, and UberEats took a 25 min detour (other person order)... But their wings and Galbi were still excellent! Wings were still crispy and the meat was tender and moist inside. I appreciate that they don't use too much sugar in the Galbi marinade. And they give a decent sized portion. The only area of improvement would be in providing more banchan. Will probably try eating at the restaurant soon. read more

Very disappointing experience. We came here with a group of four and from the start the service was poor. They only gave our table one menu for four people, while the table next to us with two people received two menus. Throughout the entire meal no one checked on our table a single time. Every time we needed something--napkins, soy sauce, spoons, forks, boxes, bags, or even the check--we had to get up and go ask for it ourselves. When my boyfriend went to pay, the cashier angrily told him that tip was not included, and then repeated it again louder. Considering that no one helped us during the meal, we didn't feel a tip was deserved. When I went to grab a bag for our takeout boxes (we had four boxes), the employee slapped the bag down on the table instead of handing it to me politely. When I explained why we didn't tip, she became visibly upset rather than acknowledging the poor service. The food unfortunately wasn't much better. We ordered spicy pork, bibimbap, creamy rice cakes, and soon tofu soup. Everything tasted plain, dry, and cold. My creamy rice cakes were literally hot on top and cold on the bottom, which made it seem like it wasn't heated properly. Overall: terrible service and disappointing food. This was my first Korean restaurant in San Francisco and it left a really bad impression. Definitely would not return. ALSO veggies on my bimpipap were all old and stale bacon was slimy read more

This place is so great! My friend had been raving about it so we went on a Saturday and luckily caught them on a slow day probably because it was so cold. I've been told it gets extremely busy late on Saturday nights because of the drink options. Overall, the food was extremely good. I thought the serving sizes for the most part were a good amount. I'm not into Korean food that much but this place changed my opinion! The only thing I wasn't a fun of as much was the bacon wrapped asparagus only because some of the asparagus was extremely chewy/could not be eaten. I would 100% come back here and would love to experience it when it's really busy with the late nighters! read more

Solid, fun place. There are two other Korean places nearby (Cocobang and 707 Sutter) and all three are fun and lively! I went with a friend on a weekday for dinner. Food was flavorful, service was quick, and they were attentive to what we needed. We ordered the beef short ribs and the meat was nice and soft. It was very flavorful, clear broth- a little salty, but that made it delicious. It came with a side of rice, short grain-- very nice mouthfeel. We also got their kimchi pancake, crispy but still thick. And finally their jjapagetti which they made nicely. Noodles were firm and sauce was thick. Would go again and a fun place to bring more friends! read more

ZZAN - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Great place to get your Korean food fix. Came on a Friday night and managed to get a table. They've got great wings. They somehow stay crispy when covered in sauce. Also tried the beef short rib and dolsot bibimbop. Both were delicious and had decent portions. The place has a great vibe and friendly service. Would definitely come back. read more

Great Korean spot nestled in lower Nob Hill near some other late night eat spots. Came on a rainy Friday night and it was pretty quiet and cozy. Got bulgogi and corn cheese to share, and both were juicy and flavorful (meat tender and corn was nice and savory but not too salty). Service was a bit slow given it wasn't too busy - but overall would come back if I'm craving these two specific things :) read more

ZZAN - Marinated Beef BBQ (Bulgogi) and Corn Cheese - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

I came to ZZAN with my husband and another couple before seeing a show at the Masonic! We picked it because it was walking distance (uphill lol) and the food looked good. We love Korean food and ZZAN has so many options. We ordered the short rib soup, corn cheese, combination skewers, and the fried chicken wings with soy garlic sauce. Our favorites were the soup, corn, and chicken wings! The skewers were just okay. The soup was super comforting and hearty with chunks of tender short rib and glass noodles. The corn had a decent cheese pull, but it was a little small. The chicken wings were sauced and crispy. Service was friendly and we weren't rushed out even during prime dinner time! Would love to come back when i'm in the area. :) read more

ZZAN was one of the few late night spots that was open near us when we were hungry after going to a concert. We are so happy we found this place! The service was pretty quick even though there were only two servers. The place itself is small so I wouldn't recommend big groups. The food here hit so good after a concert. We got the spicy soft tofu soup, this was nice and hardy. We also got soy garlic chicken wings which was delicious. I wished the flavor of the soy garlic penetrated the chicken more but it was delicious nonetheless. Our favorite was the sausage and rice cake skewer. We love how the rice cake was crispy on the outside but still soft and chewy on the inside. It tasted so good with the snap of the sausage and drenched in the sweet sauce. This is a great late night spot! read more

came here with a friend on Wednesday night before going to a show at the SF playhouse. immediately seated at 6pm and ordered a dolsot bibimbap, jjamppong, and bottle of soju. We were kinda rushing to get to our show, but wanted to savor every bite of deliciousness. i thought their kimchi was sooo good and the dolsot bibimbap had so much crunch and flavor. My first time having jjamppong every and felt full with the ramen and seafood flavors. staff was kind and didn't rush us, but it took a little to flag them down for the bill even thought it wasn't crowded. Took our leftovers home for later for about $25/pp read more

Not a lot of options for banchan. -Service-1/5 They did not pay attention at all. Raised my hand multiple times to no avail. -food- 1/5 Fried chicken: It was okay, not too moist but definitely not enough coating of sauce. Omelette: A lot of it was just decoration and wish it had a little more something to it. Pork belly: Not sure was they were doing here. It did not have any flavor whatsoever Cold noodle soup: Meant to order the spicy version but they said it was too late after I called him right back. Not exactly a satisfying dish personally for us. Guess there's a reason it's open so late. read more

If you are looking for a dinner spot or a spot to go after those late night hangouts, this is one! They open from 4pm to 1am every day, and they offer variety of Korean comfort dishes. The portion sizes are also good! Deep fried noodle in seaweed ($8) Egg omelet with cheese ($15) - the egg omelet was very fluffy, had a lot of spam and cheese, and paired well with the sauces Beef short rib soup ($23) - surprisingly flavorful and savory and came with good amount of tender meat, eggs, and noodles Creamy rice cake ($19) - tasted like carbonara, but I wished the rice cake itself was more chewy Boneless chicken ($20 + $2 for soy garlic) - okay fried chicken but didn't leave much impression Rice cake skewers ($6) - a little tooo hard texture wise We came on a weekday and the place was quite busy for dinner! The place itself was not too loud, there is Korean music video playing. read more

The place has a pretty cozy vibe, and the service was great. We enjoyed all the dishes we ordered. The only thing for me was that the pancake was a bit too oily. They also have a big outdoor area with a projector. I really love that idea! read more

Spicy chicken with cheese- my fav that we got. Cheese was cheesy, chicken was tender, sauce was sweet and all over a sizzling plate. The plate came with rice, the rice was perfect, fluffy, sticks together the good amount, similar to japanese rice iykyk. Cheese got those cheese pulls, I posted a pic of my record. If I just eat it normally without thinking, nothing much stands out in flavor, flavors more subtle, I didnt taste much from cheese but the mouthfeel of cheese still was a nice addition. But without thinking I still really enjoyed it. Oh forgot, they had onions too, was good Clam soup- my sister ordered, didnt come with rice, they gave you the stove and the pot and then starts the fire on your table. So it takes time to get it going but it goes fast. All the food is already cooked, besides the veggies. Had jalapenos, onions, green onions, daikon, and clam. Everything was good, they're what you'd expect, daikon prob my favorite (not a big seafood guy). Soup was tasty, I mean that in the best way, very flavorful. Most flavorful part of the dish Extra Waiter guy was very accomadating, despite there being a big party and the guy said maybe a 30 min wait, we got seated surprisingly quickly cause it was just 2 people we got the corner. Inside is pretty small, and really narrow like a hallway and the sides are tables and chairs. Food came in very quickly too (first side dishes then the main dishes) Waiter is simultaneously busy and aware. He came in and we asked to get a few more min, so he left and it was fairly easy to get his attention when we were ready. Since it was a straight shot narrow hallway to start staring and he was at the counter on the other side lol 5/5 read more

The food here is so good -- their soft tofu soup is rich and comforting, and the mozzarella sticks are heavenly. While the restaurant isn't in the safest part of town, the pocha vibes and solid food makes me go back every time. Love the fun and laid-back vibes. read more

After a night out, my friends and I post mated three orders of the beef short rib soup back to our place. The soup itself didn't taste like the typical galbi tang that we're used to, however, it wasn't terrible. The soup had egg droplets inside and tasted like a toned down pho broth. Glass noodles were also included inside the broth which, by the time the soup arrived, were over soaked and soggy. If the restaurant were to package the noodles separately for takeout, I believe this would preserve the bounciness of the them. The main disappointment was the beef. The beef was very tender and actually pretty tasty, however, each of our bowls only included 4-5 bite sized pieces. There was no large short rib bone, but instead a small, bbq galbi sized bone with no meat on it. I'm disappointed that after $35 (obviously with delivery tax and fee), the meat portion was so small. Would not recommend the galbi tang here. read more

We stopped by for some Korean food. We absolutely loved everything we order which was the beef bulgoli which comes with a side of rice as well as the spicy kimchi pork. Both were so good and portions are big enough to share. We got the pork gyoza and takoyaki wasn't a fan of the takoyaki but loved the gyoza. Another favorite that came out boiling hot was the kimchi soup. It's a small spot but definitely worth the wait. The service was quick and the staff was friendly. read more

We had a horrible experience. We were standing there for a while. We saw the waitress picked up the phone, brought water to a table, brought utensils and something else to a couple They never looked our way or acknowledged us.

Amazing, such delicious flavors, great drinks, and friendly staff. I came to celebrate a birthday without a reservation for ~16 people and called them day of and they said they could accommodate us. Honestly there were no issues with us being a big party, food came out fast, despite our large and complicated order. Price was pretty good for the quantities as well. The spicy pork, kimchi fried rice, and chicken wings are to die for. I will come back and eat everything on the menu. This place is a certified banger in my book read more

Came here with a large party of 11 and they were very accommodating with getting us seated together instead of split.

Server was super friendly with our group too . This spot offers a pretty wide menu selection of Korean dishes but we mainly came for drinks. The food dishes that we ordered were pretty good and flavorful! Kalbi(5/5) Fatty, tender, juicy Seafood pancake (4/5) Thought this wouldn't be crispy when I first looked at it but it had a good crunch while being soft in the inside Japchae (3/5) Pretty standard japchae Beef short rib soup (5/5) Super flavorful wow.

ZZAN - Beef short rib soup - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

On July 13, I was dining with a friend who ordered a small takeaway item. When it was ready, the staff member (glasses, tied-up hair) rudely told my friend to "go pay herself," even though we clearly offered to pay on her behalf. She then refused to give the food and placed it behind the counter with zero respect. This isn't the first time we've witnessed her being rude, but this behavior crossed the line. She was unprofessional, dismissive, and showed no basic customer service skills. The owner seriously needs to consider whether someone with this attitude belongs in hospitality -- because she is damaging the reputation of the restaurant. read more

ZZAN - Chicken Karaage & Rose Ddukbokki - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Really fun spot for Korean food! We ate at 6pm on a Friday night - seated immediately! It was definitely picking up by the time we left around 730 though so I'm sure gets busier later. Ambiance was fun- K Pop playing on a large screen above the tables, and service was very attentive. We (4 people) ordered a few skewers, tofu fried rice, a kimchi pancake, and stir fried creamy rice cake. It was all delicious! Total w one round of drinks was $33/pp so I would say very reasonably priced as well. read more

It's evening, and you're looking for delicious Korean food to take your family or date to. We'll look no further, for you have found the right place. The interior decor is chic, clean, dark but not dreary. The music isn't too loud and the atmosphere is perfect for an intimate convo, or a hearty chat. The food is excellent as well without being overly salty. My friends and I ordered the tofu soup, chewy noodles, and some skewers as our appetizer. Beware the chewy noodles are gonna be really chewy, I recommend you ask for scissors to cut it. The service was also fast and the servers were attentive. read more

I hesitate to say this, but I think this is the best Korean food I have ever had. We ended up eating here 2 nights in a row because it was so good (also convenient and fairly inexpensive). The service was a bit slow, but not horrible. It's a cute little spot. Night 1 we got the dolsot bibimbap and combination rice cake/sausage skewers. The bibimbap was delicious and classic. The banchan and skewers were fine. We also ordered a large bottle of Cass, cold sake, and a bottle of soju. Our bill was only $60! Night 2 is the reason for the 5 star review. The kimchi fried rice (with Spam) was insanely delicious. Rice texture was perfect, and the flavor was amazing. We also got the japchae (clear noodle) stir fry, and it was sooo yummy. I will absolutely be going back here on my next trip to SF. read more

I was really looking forward to the chewy cold noodle but it was honestly disappointing. The noodles came out lukewarm and tasted like they weren't rinsed well enough in cold water. You could still taste the starch and they were overcooked, making them really sticky. The service was also a bit of a miss. It looked like one staff member was handling almost all the tables and he seemed so overwhelmed and wasn't too friendly. Not the worst meal I've had, but definitely not one I'd go out of my way to try again. read more

One of my favorite spots ever. It's open late, has good prices, and the food is amazing. best for late night munchies. The cheese corn is always top tier and hits the spot.

ZZAN - Grapefruit soju and SSAM - Korean Near Me - San Francisco, California

Loved that this place was open late since I got in on a late flight. We ordered bulgogi and rice cakes. The total after tax was around $50. For the price , I thought the serving would be more family style size. The bulgogi came with rice, a small side of fish cake and a small side of kimchi. Overall the food was decent. I didn't think it stood out from other average spots. I wouldn't say the prices are justified in terms of portion size though. Also the egg in the rice cake was hard boiled? Not jammy like the eggs are usually supposed to be. read more

Service was quick and waiters were very friendly; food was tasty as well! We got the creamy tteokbokki, omelette rice with spam, and bulgogi. All were very flavorful and great portions -- with 3 dishes between 2 people, we had lots of leftovers to take home. Docked a star because the ambiance was a bit quiet (we were the only people in the entire restaurant), although we might have just been eating dinner at a weird time. The surrounding area is a bit sketchy especially at night so just be aware of your surroundings. Inside of the restaurant itself is clean. Would recommend if you're looking fairly priced comfort food in a casual environment. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon for a late lunch, and surprisingly it was empty! Usually I see this place with a lot of people, so we got lucky. As a Kpop fan, I enjoyed seeing music videos playing and I get to jam with it whenever a song I knew came up. The servers were very friendly and accommodated is right away. I ordered the Soft Tofu Soup and shared the Creamy Rice Cake with my party. I enjoyed the tofu soup with my rice, it's a dish you can never go wrong with. The rice cake was super delicious, whatever sauce they had was just the perfect creaminess with hints of flavor. If I lived closer I would order this every week. It's a pretty good place to eat at when you're in the city! read more

Everything here was so good! Normally i wouldnt go for cold noodles but the way they made it with the kimchi paired it so nicely. it was so refreshing! The cheese on the rice cakes are a really nice addition and paired with the corn cheese, it packs a big bite with lots of flavors. I probably wouldnt get the rice cake and sausage skewers only for their portioning, but the sauce on it is really good. the rice cake is fried so it gives a crunch when biting into it. We went at around 4:30 so it wasnt really packed yet so we were given seats pretty fast. Service was nice and fast. the ambiance is calm so you can enjoy your food the most! I would come back here..the cold noodles in kimchi broth got me. read more

Came here looking to get a quick bite after work. Ordered four things. Omurice, seafood soup from the specials menu, sausage/rice cake skewer/ and the beef bulgogi. The beef bulgogi came out 30 minutes after we ordered on a small sizzling plate. Beef was lukewarm and dry as if all they did was heat it up with a microwave.To be honest, they would have done a better job if they actually used a microwave. Portion size was really small for a dish that cost $29. 15 more minutes pass by as we still are waiting for our food. We had to flag down the server asking where our food was. He goes in and checks and comes out with the omurice which looks nothing like omurice. The egg and rice were cold. We did not finish it. After another 15 mins of waiting for the soup, we told the server to cancel the rest of the order and he tried to tell us they were making it and it would be quick. Not sure why but every time we had to ask the waiter where the food was, he would bring it out within 30 seconds. We insisted on cancelling since it almost took an hour to get a soup and a skewer ready. We did receive some pushback from him until he spoke to his manager and they said they would offer the soup for us for free. Overall, ambiance looks nice, food quality is mid and comes out cold when it does come. Better to save your money and head over to 707 or Cocobang if you want late night Korean food. read more
