My sister was going to see her optometrist in El Cerrito Plaza. She remembered going to El Mono next door for lunch. I told her we checked other restaurants. When we got there, we saw Gangnam Tofu, a Korean restaurant. This was our first time visiting this restaurant. We were greeted by a staff and showed us where we can sit. Immediately he took one chair so my mom's wheelchair can be situated. I asked the staff where the restroom was and I was told it was outside & handed me a key attached to a wide stick. We were handed a worn-out menu maybe due to frequent handling over an extended period. We ordered the Original Soft Tofu Stew boiled with chicken. We chose clear spice for our mom. From appetizer we ordered Seafood Pancake & Jap-Chae. First we were served with hot tea to drink. Then the banchan (side dishes) came to be shared including kimchi, quartered size eggplant, rice, potatoes, broccoli, pancake, egg. The banchan were scrumptious and healthy to eat as part of Korean cuisine. The appetizers came and I never thought the portion was large. The Jap-Chae & Seafood Pancake were delicious. Then the pot came with bubbling tofu stew and the server asked if he can crack the egg into the tofu & I said yes. It was fun to see the bubbling soup. My sister mixed the egg to thicken the soup. There were mixed customers but mostly young ones. The dining room was clean. There were two staff. The female one was asking my mom if she was enjoying the food. She asked us if we need more eggplant & broccoli. I did not know there was refill. Jay, another staff, refilled my water without me asking. Overall, we enjoyed the flavorful Korean dishes & the staff were nice. We don't mind returning. read more
