an nyeong k tofu & bbq

A cold was running through the family, so tofu soup sounded really good. My son was particularly excited that we could get ramen on the side with the tofu soup. The soup was really comforting. I also got an order of spicy pork which was perfect for a bowl and some leftovers.

The food was fantastic. We had the Galbi, tofu soup, and BBQ beef, and each dish was packed with flavor. The Galbi was tender and tasty, the tofu soup was warm and comforting, and the BBQ beef was perfectly grilled. Prices are a bit high, but that’s pretty standard for Austin. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, a great experience that felt worth the price.

First time dining in this restaurant. I love the atmosphere. Vibrant and full of positive energy. Staff were welcoming. We came during weekday for lunch. Service was fast and food was hot and delicious. Definitely will be back and try other dishes.

5 stars restaurant in ATX! We had a combination soup, seafood pancake, and a bottle of Soon Hari Yogurt. They were all excellent. Everything tastes so fresh and vibrant. They must be using high quality ingredients. The soup had a deep clam flavor which was excellent. The seafood pancake was perfectly cooked crispy and soft at the same time 😋 The banchan was so flavorful. Every staff member we encountered was super attentive and helpful!! What a gem! I will definitely be coming back!! Thank you for the amazing service and food!!

Really good Korean place. We have been many times already. I definitely recommend the sea food pancake, it huge, crispy and really flavorful. The seafood has been updated now and has less tofu, which is great because this is the best soup in town. Bibimbap is great as well.

Overall 4.5/5 Finding good Korean food in Austin has been a challenge however An Nyeong ups the game and is a welcome addition. It was busy with about a 30 minute wait on a Friday evening. They have a dry erase board for a waitlist which seems to be more for the patrons to keep track as the waitstaff didn’t really refer to it when seating guests. Hopefully in the future, they’ll offer reservations. The food is fantastic and service is kind and prompt. The servings are very generous and a great value for the price. We had the combination tofu soup, seafood pancake, BBQ pork, and teokbokki with ramen. They were all well made and tasted great with the highlights being the seafood pancake and teokbokki. Their boncheon was okay—maybe not as pickled or salted as most places. Their ube dessert ala mode was also a nice treat to end on. We’ll be back—recommended!

Finding a place that serves good Korean food in Austin is quite a challenge, but this new spot was a delightful surprise. I tried the Bibimbap, mixed rice in stoneware, Tofu Soup, Seafood Pancake, and Marinated Crab. Not only were the main dishes delicious, but the side dishes were also incredibly fresh and tasty. The Seafood Pancake was especially impressive, with a crispy outside and a moist, flavorful inside. The Tofu Soup was great because I could adjust the spiciness. The Bibimbap had perfectly seasoned vegetables, and everything came together harmoniously. It’s rare to find Marinated Crab in this area, so I was thrilled to see it on the menu and it did not disappoint. Overall, every dish was excellent, and I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic Korean cuisine in Austin.

Overall solid food, solid banchan, and solid rice! Banchans were simply and perfect flavor with rice. I ordered 8 level kimchi pork soft tofu, perfect ratio of broth and soft tofu. I wish it was little spicier and have more pork. Seafood pancake was crispy outside, well cooked, and paired well with mustardy soy sauce. Marinated spicy crab was okay. It was too salty and saucy for me. I wish the entrance/bar area were little cleaner/organized. Random bottle of vitamin C, tools, and etc on the bar. Will be back to try BBQ meat next time :)

Got more food this time and the service was better! I enjoyed the galbi (I always do!) and the galbitang is so warm and comforting. Skipped the soondubu, and tried all the banchan with the pork bibimbap-everything was fantastic! The dessert is delicious but doesn't have enough injeolmi powder. The ice cream scoop is also a bit lopsided but I was impressed with the matcha brownie. It's my first time having this kind of brownie and I don't think it was on their menu the last time I came.

The food was good, but not spicy at all. We also had really bad service, despite the restaurant not being very busy. The real standout was the lackluster service from our waitress. They forgot to bring us plates, so we had to ask for them. She also remembered to bring us water, but no cups. Then our entrees came, and she forgot to bring us rice or the accompanying sauce for bibimbap. We ordered many things. This is my review of each item: Seafood pancake - really good. 5/5. The seafood portion is generous and the pancake itself was fried very well. Spicy rice cakes - the rice cake they use is really good quality, big, and chewy. However I found the sauce to not be spicy at all, which was disappointing. Combination 2 soondubu (tofu stew) - I got the spice level 8. The meat and seafood mix is very generous, and there is a lot of tofu. I also liked that it came with purple rice. At level 8, it was an appropriate level of spice for me. Partner got the bibimbap. I had a few bites and they use a lot of vegetables to meat ratio, which I liked a lot. The bibimbap is a great portion size and really tasty.

We came for dinner on a Monday night around the holidays in December. There was no wait but it was nearly full. I ordered the Kimchi tofu soup with beef. It was super flavorful with just a level 3 spicy (tolerable to someone who likes some but not much spice). It came with some rice and of course plenty of banchans. I probably could've stopped half way and saved it for later but it was too tasty! The bibimbap was also good, but I did not try too much of it. Each of the banchans were great, I really liked the noodles and potato (?). The potstickers were alright, but I was more tempted by the seafood pancake at the table next to us so would try that next time. Service was quick and the ambiance inside was modern and casual. Overall I would go back if looking for Korean food in central Austin.

Dangerously next door to Korman jewelers - don't get sidetracked by shiny things. Just make your way into this great little restaurant. I've felt that Austin had be lacking a Korean Soon du Boo place and was really excited to find this one (and one not located in the far north part of Austin). Restaurant is clean and the service is so helpful, attentive and nice. We opted for the following: We were offered either water or barley tea (cold/hot) at the beginning, but there are other beverage options available too. Being fans of the barley tea - we stuck with that. - Seafood tofu soup. Oysters, clams and shrimp. Served in a ttukbaegi. I went with a 6/10 spicy and felt that I could have gone a bit spicier. I did crack the egg in and tried to let is sit to cook in the hot soup - but I think the next time I'm just going to stir it in. - Combination tofu soup. Clams, shrimp and beef. Served in a ttukbaegi. 7/10 spicy gives a good kick without going overboard. - Mushroom tofu soup. A mix of mushrooms with tofu. Served in a ttukbaegi. Really nicely balanced flavor too - Baby tofu soup - this one is for the kids - a small metal bowl (not a ttukbaegi). Could have had some meat and mushrooms, but the kiddo opted for mushrooms only. Banchan was served as well - a mix of some different items - kimchi, kongnamul (seasoned bean sprouts), jap chae (glass noodles), gamja jorim (potatoes) and cheonsachae (kelp noodles). We also added an order of galbi (served on a bed of grilled onions) and has some heukmi bap (purple rice) to go with it. We were stuffed and so happy one we finished. Definitely would go back!

Really great first visit to this Korean gem! Went at around 6pm on a Monday and we were seated right away by a very kind and enthusiastic server! While busy, she took the time to explain the menu to us and even gave us some recommendations! We ended up ordering two versions of their stone bowl Bibimbap (just noted as mixed rice on their menu)--the seafood and the beef. While waiting for the main courses, 5 dishes of delicious looking banchan came out. We sampled kimchi, spiced potatoes, kelp noodle slaw, japchae, and blanched bean sprouts. All of these were excellent. The hot and sizzling stone bowls arrived at our table, along with their spicy gochujang sauce. The sound and smell was amazing. The flavors mingled beautifully, and both the beef and seafood was perfectly cooked and tender. It was a ton of food! For $19 each, you can easily get two meals haha. We really loved our time at An Nyeong. By the end of our meal, the restaurant was packed. Clearly there is no secret that this is THE spot if you want delicious Korean food. We will be back :)

One of the best Korean restaurants in Austin! If you like authentic Korean food, then this place is a must-visit. They have a simple menu that focuses on Korean staples including soondubu jiggae (tofu soup), bulgogi/galbi, and seafood pancake. My favorite dish is the soondubu jiggae with beef. You get to customize the spice level for your soup and it also comes with an egg that you can crack straight into the soup. They also serve purple rice here which is more premium than white rice (bonus points for this). I've enjoyed every dish that I've ever ordered here and the quality of the food has always been excellent. The banchan (side dishes) here are great too and they refill the ones you're low on. The staff are also very nice and the service is always on point as expected. Overall 5/5, this is the best Korean spot in Austin.

An Nyeong is a newer korean restaurant on Burnet near the triangle. The korean food scene in Austin isn't the strongest, so I was really excited for this new potential gem. For starters, the banchan here were exceptional. We got to enjoy potatoes, japchae, seaweed salad, bean sprouts, and kimchi. My only critique is that the kimchi was on the fresher side (wasn't very sour yet). For my main dish, I got a bimbimbap (seafood and vegetables in stone rice bowl). I thought this was delicious. The ratio of rice to seafood to vegetables was perfect. The bimbimbap sauce paired well to create a complete meal. The crispy rice at the bottom of the bowl was seasoned and deliciously crisp when mixed in with the toppings. To nail in how good I was, I licked my bowl completely clean. My table also shared a seafood pancake. It featured a lot of seafood and was perfectly crisped. They also cut the seafood pancake into tavern pizza style, which is unique compared to other korean places. Our server was really nice and made our overall experience quite enjoyable.

An Nyeong stands out in Austin, where the korean food scene is not very strong. There are many korean fusions around here, but not many places where you can get just a solid soondubu, bimbimbap, or seafood pancakes. I saw some reviews that said that in Austin, An Nyeong is a 5 star, but in the grand scheme of things, An Nyeong is closer to a 4 star. I cannot agree more, so out of integrity, I am giving this place a 4 star. Before the meal begins, like most korean restaurants, you are greeted with a table of banchan. These korean sides were some of the better banchan i've had. I especially enjoyed the potatoes and the japchae. The seaweed salad was also incredibly fresh. For our appetizer, we ordered the seafood pancake. This was also one of the better pancakes i've had. It was filled with seafood (not like some other places who might skimp out on the protein). The exterior was perfectly crisped and the sauce that paired with the pancake was nice and tangy. Overall, very delicious. For my main, I ordered the combo tofu soup. I've had many good tofu soups in my life; this one ranks around average to slightly above average on my spectrum. The soup base did not have much depth to it- it kind of tasted like a one dimensional broth with spicy korean red pepper flakes as a separate layer that didn't integrate well into the overall dish. It was filled with soft tofu and good fillings though! My friends really enjoyed their bimbimbaps (rice plates), so I may opt for that next time. Our experience here overall was very pleasant. The interior was very clean and well decorated. I actually made a mental note of how good our server was as well- she was very attentive to our table. Side note- they have free barley tea! May have to ask for it, but the tea helps to refresh your palette and is very delicious.

Party of 2, no wait on a weekday evening but still pretty crowded. Customer service great, atmosphere was good too. Curious to see how it looks like in the daytime since one of their walls consist mostly of windows from top to bottom. We got tofu soup, and there was a lot of contents inside, couldn't finish it. Sides were fine (I like how they have japchae; wish there was a regular lettuce or a sqeet mash potato). I would come back here again to try the other dishes!

visited an nyeong k tofu and bbq around 1 pm on a saturday and was seated quickly, despite it being pretty busy. we ordered: - level 3 (mild) kimchi tofu soup ($17.95) - seafood pancake ($18.95) - beef short ribs (galbi) ($27.95) - bbq beef and vegetables in stoneware ($19.95) the food came out fast but in a random order. the tofu soup came before the seafood pancake, which was the appetizer. the side dishes (banchan) were delicious, especially the soy sauce potatoes and kimchi, which went well with everything. the galbi was the standout--flavorful and paired well with the grilled onions. the stoneware bibimbap kept the rice crispy and warm. the seafood pancake was crispy but a bit too oily for my taste. overall, enjoyed the meal and would definitely return.

I think this is in reality a 4 but a 5 for Austin. There was a wait when I went so that's how you know it's good. Located in a plaza with a decent parking lot size (huge plus! did not take long to find a spot). The size of the restaurant is not that big so expect a long wait during peak hours and with larger parties. Food: Other than the soups, the portions for their entrees are HUGE and packed with flavor. They really marinate all the meats. The soups actually taste very fresh and was filling, I just wish it was cheaper for the size you get. The banchan were so-so/had better elsewhere. The kimchi and bean sprouts were fresh tasting but everything else not so much. Service: Quick, hospitable, and attentive. Servers came by often and there was always someone around when we needed something. And they were very generous in refills for the banchan. Did not amaze me but really is good addition to the Austin area and for friends and family!

Though I was disappointed to find an updated menu that no longer designated any of the spicy tofu soup as being vegetarian-friendly, the tofu and vegetable bibimbap restored my faith. Rice blackened to a crispy char on the bottom, it's one of the best I've had. Sauteed spinach, mushrooms, carrots, zucchini, bean sprouts, and potato complete the picture with fresh, flavorful, well seasoned accompaniments. Don't skimp on the gochujang and mix thoroughly to get a little bit of everything in each bite.

I would normally give this spot 4 stars, but for Austin, it's 5 stars because we don't have many good Korean spots. We came on a Friday around 5:45pm and didn't have to wait to get a table. The servers were super nice and checked in on us often. However, we did have some trouble flagging our waiter down when we were trying to pay and leave. The banchan was pretty good with free refills. My personal favorite was the potatoes. But I do wish they had fishcakes too. The kimchi was okay, I think it would be a big hit for people who like fresh kimchi as opposed to kimchi that's more fermented and sour and spicy. The tofu soup was pretty good too. I kind of wished it had more of the add ins like beef, shrimp, clams, etc. I only had one shrimp and I was a little disappointed that I had to peel it myself. And I wish the dish itself was a bit hotter. When I cracked my egg in the soup, it didn't really cook much. But I liked that the dish was served with purple rice. I'm ok, but not the best with spice, so I got level 7. I was okay eating it, but I think I would have preferred level 6. The arrowroot noodles were really good too. And I loved bring able to customize the vinegar and mustard yourself. And the mixed rice dishes were a lot bigger than I expected which was nice. Overall, it's a bit on the pricier side. But it's a decent Korean restaurant.

solid cripsy seafood pancake here !! tofu soup is also great. The galbi could be marinated a bit better but not an issue at all. I am just happy we have a decent place near central :)

We decided to try the place out on a whim, arriving at 8:06pm on a Saturday. We first observed that it was swamped at that time (they close at 9pm). When you enter, there is a single circular table on the left for a large group, past the wooden divider. Additionally, just after the "Please Wait to Be Seated" sign, there is a whiteboard, where it seems folks are encouraged to write their name and their party size down, using the dry erase marker, as a make shift waiting list. While we stood at the front waiting, we perused their online menu, deciding what to order. After about 6 minutes, someone came by to let us know they were cleaning and prepping a two-top. We decided on Galbitang, Bibimbap with beef in stoneware, and Mugwart Injeolmi. The banchan was rather disappointing. It has significant room for improvement. Most of them are under-seasoned, or they have a rather weird flavor profile. The potatoes were in a sweet, sour, slightly spicy sauce (but mostly sweet). They were cooked, but certain parts of some potatoes had that slight undercooked crisp to them. The japchae was not what I would describe as savory. It lacked garlic-soy-sauce-sesame-oil goodness. The mayo noodles (kelp noodles?) were pretty much just slathered in mayo. The soybean sprouts were pretty much unseasoned (imagine just boiling them in some water, and then serving it). There was no salt. The kimchi was neither spicy, sour, or salty. It seemed like a very quick, minimal ferment. However, their purple rice seemed to be cooked well. Portions are well-sized. Galbi Tang -- when it arrived, it was emitting beefy stench. There was also quite a bit of foam on top. The broth however, had a nice flavor. The radishes were thickly cut and well cooked, but some were stringy on the outside. The beef short ribs were tender, and seasoned well enough for the soup, but it did not exhibit their own flavor. The meat easily separated from the bone and was cut and serrated in a way such that you could break off individual rectangles with your chopsticks. Best part was the broth and mixing the rice in. It also came with tongs and a shallow metal bowl for placing the rib bones onto. Bibimbap -- plenty of veggies, topped with some beef, and a raw egg yolk. Carrot, radish, zucchini, soybean sprouts, fernbrake/royal fern/braken fiddleheads, spinach. Larger quantity of toppings compared to rice (which is good). They used purple rice, and the bowl was the right temperature to crisp up the rice. Sauce came in a red squeeze bottle. Mugwart Injeolmi -- basically a very hard, chewy mugwart brownie. The brownie was not super sweet; it had a nice herbal-like flavor. The vanilla ice cream was some flavorless ice cream. The almonds only added crunch and did not impart anything extra. The roasted soybean powder was a nice touch, but didn't seem to add anything to the dessert. I think if they emphasized the brownie, and amped up the vanilla and almond flavors a bit more, it might be a more interesting dessert. But the brownie itself had some very serious chew and toughness to it. Service: I'd say a part of it needs work. The tables seem to be bussed only after everyone has left the table (makes sense). They don't seem to have a protocol for serving dessert after the main meal. Whatever is on the table stays there, and they will simply hand you your dessert if there is lack of space to place the plate. On the other hand, they do check around if you'd like more banchan, refills, or anything else that you might need. Everyone working there seems pretty hospitable. Conclusion: Seems to be a popular place. If it's busy, they have a waitlist system. Don't come here for their banchan, it's pretty subpar. Broth flavor was nice, but the smell and foam was not. Certain parts of service could be improved. Filling portions, but not super flavorful. Better Korean cuisine exists (outside of Austin).

I've only been once and am looking forward to going back. The vegetable pancake was tasty. The soup was hot enough to cook an egg in. And did. There are plenty of starter noodle dishes and the friendly staff is constantly offering to refill them. The vegetarian rice dish was delicious and the bowl was hot enough to crisp the rice on the bottom. Portions are generous so come hungry.

Now my go-to spot for Korean tofu soup! Definitely come early as there will be a wait. Food: The tofu soup is a classic and probably the best I've tried in Austin - so heartwarming on a chilly day and satisfies my Korean food craving! Super customizable with the flavor and the spice levels. The banchan that comes with the dishes are also delicious, and you can request refills of any of them for free. I've also been wanting to try raw marinated crab and this seems like one of the few places to get it at - super flavorable and actually a pretty big portion! Loved squeezing it onto my rice and mixing for that umami bite. The seafood pancake here is also bomb, loaded with seafood and the dipping sauce is amazing. Service: Fast and efficient, they are always quick to refill bachan when asked and clear away plates when you're done. Vibe: bright and minimal space! Everything feels very open with the big windows and the tables are not crowded at all. Great for groups or casual date nights, but also have seen solo diners too!

Food: 4/5: ordered the spicy pork dish and it was pretty good. Definitely had to take some home because it was a lot of food for me. Service: 4/5: the service was good overall. The waiter did forget to bring out our drinks after we had ordered them. But after that they were attentive. Ambiance: 4/5: cute restaurant overall. When you first come in you don't see the hostess stand because it is behind a divider. But they have a bell on the door so they'll greet you once they hear it. Recommend and I would come back.

I often have cravings for soondubu, and An Nyeong always hits the spot. I've been here over five times, and I think they have the best soondubu in Austin. I like that they give you purple rice with your food. I always order the seafood soondubu; it's warm, comforting, and filled with just the right amount of oysters, clams, and shrimp. I've also tried their galbi which is delicious. The spicy pork bulgogi is yummy but a little oily. My slight critique is that both these BBQ entrees come with too much onion. Their seafood pancake is on par with other Korean restaurants. It's crispy and makes for a good side dish. When they first opened, I thought their banchan was really great. As they've gotten more popular, I think the banchan quality has dipped a bit to keep up with the amount that they have to make for the volume of customers. To my knowledge, An Nyeong is also the only place that serves authentic raw marinated crab. It's a generous portion, and I'd recommend sharing. Expect that you may have to wait; sometimes the entrance gets crowded and chaotic with people in line trying to get in. The service is overall good, but they do get very busy. I would agree with many reviews that this place is a 4 compared to other tofu soup restaurants in other cities, but for Austin, it's a 5, and I will continue to frequent this restaurant.

Came here with a friend looking for something light but with lots of protein. Turns out Tofu is just the thing needed. Homely korean style shop, I never tried tofu soup before this and was pleasantly surprised with their selection and quality. Atmosphere: Small very mom and pop style shop. Though with a good amount of seating, we came during dinner service on a weekday and had no issues finding tables. Food: I'd highly recommend any of their tofu soups as well as the marinated crab. The tofus all come out freshly made and very filling. Personally I enjoyed the seafood style the most because the flavors accompanied the spice level nicely. The marinated crab is a nice treat, a bit messy but they give you a couple of gloves just for that purpose. Pretty solid sized crab with a nice mix of spicy and sweet marination. Service: Friendly and able to answer questions with ease. The server my friend and I got helped describe the marinated crab as well as what to do when we got it. I certainly will be coming back to An Nyeong. Great if you're looking to be filled and have healthier alternatives.

I'm so grateful that this place is near my office. An Nyeong K tofu and bbq is spectacular! After the first time, I've been waiting to eat here everyday but I'd go broke if I did haha! The area isn't terrible but be aware of parking. The parking lot isn't the biggest but you'll find a spot. The inside is very nice and the layout is very welcoming. Service was great and the entire staff catered to your needs from start to finish. The food. Easily 1000/5. So, so good! The kimchi tofu soup with an egg and the bbq beef over rice was so flavorful. The side dishes were amazing, especially the japchae and potatoes were so delicious. I can't wait to come back again!

My fiance craves tofu stew all the time, and finally our hunt for a reliable soondubu spot in Austin has come to an end. Although the wait at dinnertime was long, it helped that they gave us a pager and had a shady parking lot (which was free as well!). Once we got in, the clean, modern interior provided a great environment for us to sit, eat, and talk for a while. The service was also excellent, checking up on us frequently to refill water and refresh the side dishes. We ordered the seafood pancake, original tofu soup, BBQ spicy pork, and raw marinated crabs. The seafood pancake was deliciously crispy and larger than we expected - a great appetizer to start with. Definitely eat it with the dipping sauce it's served with. The tofu soup was light but hearty, a perfect complement to the comparatively oily seafood pancake. Plus, they fill it to the brim with tofu! I will be having this weekly when winter comes around. Next, the BBQ spicy pork: never in my life have I seen a dish so packed with meat. The sauce marinade was delicious, and I had to pack half of the plate to go due to the size. The dish was a little fatty for my taste since they use pork belly, but this can be easily remedied by pairing it with rice or soondubu. Finally, we dug into the marinated crabs. There was so much flavor and sweetness packed into each bite, I would come back for this alone. The crabs were not fishy at all, and they were perfectly soft, texture-wise. After all the food, the owner even came to thank us personally for trying An Nyeong out! The portions, flavor, service, and vibes were all exceptional. We will definitely be back again!

An Nyeong is serving up authentic Korean tofu soup, BBQ, and mixed rice dishes in stoneware Our spread, everything was a 10/10 -- - beef short ribs (galbi) - seafood pancake - combination tofu soup (beef, shrimp, clams) The combination tofu soup we ordered had a mix of clam, beef, and shrimp. You can choose between ramen or udon noodles, and it also comes with a side of purple rice and egg. We got spice level 6/10 but probably could do a 7 or 8 next time! The owner said spice level 7 is really where the heat starts as they add new spices at this level An Nyeong is also one of few spots in Austin serving raw marinated crab. While we didn't try the crab itself, we sampled the veggies and the spices were FANTASTIC The bbq options we ordered came SIZZLING! I loved the galbi which was tender, flavorful, and a bit fatty. We devoured this! Seafood pancake was perfectly crispy, generous on the veggies & seafood, and perhaps one of the best I've had The meal comes with a generous amount of complimentary banchan, or small side dishes. This consisted of kimchi, japchae (sweet potato glass noodles), bean sprouts, pickled veggies and caramelized potato I LOVE seeing so many new Asian spots popping up in Austin recently and adding competitive Asian options + creating a more diverse food scene in the city!

I was super excited to try this new Korean place in Austin and it definitely hit the mark. My friends and I tried a variety of dishes, but I especially insisted on trying the raw marinated crab since it's one of the only places in Austin where it is available. We went on a Friday night and were seated after a 10 minute wait. The servers were very attentive with out being overbearing. Food was delicious, especially the crab. My friend were trying it for the first time and loved how flavor packed the marinade was. It's a pretty open space so the restaurant wasn't too loud and it was easy to hear eachother talk. Parking is free and abundant in the lot behind the building

Got the kalbi and naengmyeon combo and the marinated raw crab. All of it was delicious and of course authentic. I really liked the broth to the naengmyeon. You could taste the beef flavor to it. The kalbi marinade was also really nice, and they were extra saucy and came sizzling on the stone plate. The marinated crab was yummy and fun to eat. My bf is Korean and he was super happy to find a legit Korean place in Austin. The restaurant itself is huge with high ceilings and the decor is beautiful with Korean art throughout. Service was fast and friendly and offered to refill banchan and water often. Would come back when in Austin.

Great Korean spot in Austin! Came here on a Friday evening with a group of 5 and the place was busy but not completely packed. We got the Galbi (Beef Short Ribs) and Seafood Pancake to share for the group. Both were great and tasted authentic to my Korean tastebuds. For my main I ordered the Galbi Tang which maybe isn't the move considering this place is known for their Tofu Soup, but sometimes the heart wants what it wants. Regardless, the Galbi Tang was great and just what I needed on a cold night. Very glad I got to try this place!

THE BIG: Located right off of Burnet street. Parking can be a pain to get and some people park in the grass of the lot! Service is quick and there is a close period between lunch and dinner. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here on Juneteenth and were fortunately seated before they closed before their lunch service (2pm). The menu is thankfully quite small and we ordered the tofu soup, seafood pancake and the bibimbap. Let me tell you, that was a lot of food. We had about 4 different servers come by to help us, which was confusing at first but I guess it works. Regardless when the food came out, it was nice and HOT. All had great flavors and loved the dolsot (stone bowl) of the bibimbap. Had nice crunchy rice to complement the mix. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall the damage done for Tofu soup, seafood pancake, bibimbap was around $70. Very hefty portions for some delicious Korean food in Austin!

New authentic Korean restaurant in North Austin, everything was delicious including the bon chan. The raw marinated crab was probably one of the best I've ever had. The crabs were most definitely marinated and full of spicy Korean flavor. I love how they mix it in fresh cut scallions and onions! The texture of the raw crab was perfect, it didn't taste slimy! Best seafood pancake ever. It was the perfect amount of crisp full of seafood like shrimp and squid. The pancake sauce compliments the pancake. Amazing seafood tofu soup with so much flavor and is so hearty. The spice level was perfect, we ordered a 7. Perfect ratio of tofu and seafood. Next time, I'll add ramen to the soup! The gal bi was cooked to perfection and perfectly marinated. It's so good with rice! The service was great! Our waitress was very knowledgeable and attentive. Cute new restaurant.

I tried the marinated crab, seafood bibimbap, and seafood pancake! The marinated crab is flavorful. I don't think I would get it again because of the steep price. But it was fun to try. We really loved the seafood pancake. So crispy and stuffed with toppings! Good size. The bibimbap was yummy! I liked the crispy rice. Overall, the prices are a little expensive. Service was nice. The store is beautifully decorated. Ample parking in the lot behind it.

My new favorite Korean food spot! Every dish at this restaurant was on point - the tofu soup had a flavorful broth with a good amount of tofu, the seafood pancake was deliciously light and crispy, and even the side dishes had a good variety of options and the kimchi was some of the best I've had in Austin. With it being so popular, there might be a wait - they give you a buzzer. The service staff are friendly and, despite being busy, were attentive. They didn't bring out the seafood pancake right away so we asked for an update and received it a few minutes later. The place itself is bigger than what it appears from the front, especially with its high ceilings. There was plenty of table space for the 3 of us - distance from other tables might feel a bit cramped. Parking: plenty, as they have a shared plaza parking lot

Reminds of LA in K-Town. Traditional tofu pits full of flavor and well balanced. Tried the raw crab for the first time, although very good I felt like it was a bit overpowered by all the sauce and seasoning that it was drenched in. It was a lot to consume in one seating. Service was very fast and accommodating to my kids.

My friend made a reservation for our large group and the owner was so kind to accommodate us all. There was plenty of parking outside and the restaurant was nicely decorated. The waiting staff were kind and checked up on us. We ordered raw marinated crab, seafood pancake, arrowroot cold noodle with spicy sauce, beef short ribs (gal bi), bbq spicy pork, and bbq beef and vegetables in stoneware. All of our food came out quickly and the portions were generous, Everything was prepared beautifully and we shared everything family style. I have been wanting to try out the raw marinated crab, so I was thrilled that it was so fresh and flavorful. The seafood pancake was crispy and fluffy. It's great to come here with a large group of friends so you can order many dishes and try everything. Would recommend if you love Korean food!

There was nothing here that was not delicious. The surprising star of the show is the seafood pancake. Most places have a very doughy spongey texture, but this one is fried all the way through, light and crispy. The tofu soup is very good and I like that they let you pick your spice level from 1-10. Kalbi is good and standard. They also are the only place that I know of here that serves raw marinated crab (delicious). The service here is always super friendly (they even gave us some extra sides to take home at the end of the night - they make their potatoes daily so they gave us what they didn't serve that day).

An Nyeong K Tofu is a sister restaurant to SGD Tofu chain restaurants in the Bay Area. I've been to SGD Tofu in Santa Clara, and it's good. An Nyeong K Tofu has multiple investors. But the majority investor is the nephew of the owner of SGD Tofu. The nephew purchased the recipes from his uncle. He couldn't call his restaurant SGD because there's already an SGD inside H Mart with a different owner, unrelated to SGD in the Bay Area. An Nyeong means "hello" in Korean. They know how to cook a proper bulgogi, unlike K-Flop. I mean K-Bop. I took mine to go as they closed at 2:30 pm, and reopened at 5 pm. Hella large portions of bulgogi and panchan. It's been two days and I'm still working on it. This is my new favorite Korean restaurant in Austin.

I had been meaning to check this place out for a while after seeing great reviews of their raw marinated crab, a dish I have never tried before. I went at about noon on a weekday and it despite the place being quite packed for a weekday, I and a friend were promptly seated. It did not take long for us to look through the menu and order our dishes. Service was definitely very attentive. Interior had a good amount of natural lighting with a nice open floor layout. Small touches like the wall art and color schemes were definitely appreciated. Shortly after placing our order we were each given a beautiful selection of banchan that excited us further for the main dishes coming. The wait was not long before we were served the raw marinated crab, coming with an additional plate and glove, and the galbi, which came on a hot cast iron plate. The raw marinated crab was the most pleasurable surprise I could've asked for. A spicy, slightly sweet marinade with carrot and green onions covered the crab pieces that were severed into manageable slices. The raw inside was the sweet, somewhat briny but not fishy flavor of crab that took on a softer texture in its raw form. I will say that I rarely steer away from raw dishes, so trying this wasn't a huge bridge to cross, but still I can confidently say that the texture and appearance of this dish is very easy to get used to and not something to shy away from! It was not at all difficult to separate the meat from the shell and eat alongside some of the banchan that was given. The galbi was good, and remained hot despite us both digging into the crab first. I especially loved the portions that were extra charred with the marinade. I would say if are looking for a decedent meat dish this is a must try! This was one of the best spots that I've stoped by for a quick bite in a while, and I know I'll be back!

This small mom and pop Korean restaurant opened this week. It seems like it's family owned and run. The staff is very friendly and attentive. This was one of the better Korean beef tofu soups in Austin. Very flavorful and comes with an egg. The seafood pancake was more of a temporary consistency, and the dipping sauce was really good. The beef Galbi was good as well. For banchan, they served fish cakes, bean sprouts, kimchi, potato, and noodles. We will be back again.

I heard this place is the only restaurant serving raw marinated crabs in Austin so I knew I had to try it! We came here on a Saturday night around 6, and there was only a 5-10 minute wait. The inside was packed and it smelled amazing as soon as we walked in. I was super impressed by the service here! We got checked on constantly, and they offered free refills of banchan and rice. Unfortunately they don't serve any alcohol yet (we were hoping to drink soju with our meal) but they said they would have it in about a month. We ordered: - Raw Marinated Crabs (5/5): This was my first time trying raw marinated crabs and I loved them! They have a texture similar to raw fish, super soft and juicy. The sauce is a little spicy but not overwhelming. They also gave us gloves to squeeze the meat out of the shells with, so they weren't too difficult to eat. For $27 we got about 8 small crabs. - BBQ Spicy Pork (5/5): Spicy pork is one of my favorite Korean dishes, and I really enjoyed this one! It arrived piled high on a sizzling hot plate. The steam was so intense I couldn't even get a good picture. The portion was very generous and the pork was tender and flavorful. Overall, I'm so glad An Nyeong is in Austin. I've been searching for a good Korean restaurant ever since I moved here and this is the best one I've tried so far!

Yum yum! This is the best comfort Korean food I've had in Austin so far. And by comfort food, I mean Korean tofu soup and banchan. The free banchan is great - it's small dishes of bean sprouts, seaweed and pickled onions, potatoes in a sweet sauce, kimchi, and japchae. Unlimited refills as well! They also offer free hot tea. I got the #1 tofu soup with beef (~$18). It comes with purple rice and an egg to mix into the soup. You can choose the level of spice, from 0-10. I got a 3 which was mild, and it was still very flavorful. The soup was chock full of tofu so I was definitely full. Between the large portions of food and unlimited banchan, you should be satisfied. Service was spot on and multiple servers stopped to check in on us and refill our banchan. There is tons of parking in the back and the door to enter is facing the street that you drive into, not directly under the large sign facing the street.

Delicious Korean restaurant on Burnett with actual Korean dishes rather than fusion creations. I am so happy I found this place because I havent had proper bibimbap or tofu soup since I came to Austin 2+ years ago The pork bibimbap was tasty, and the rice was a tad crispy at the bottom. Seafood pancake was cripsy and delicious with the nice light dipping sauce. The combination tofu soup has beef, shrimp and clam. The soup sizzle dies down very quickly as soon as they brought it out so the egg didnt have the chance to fully cook if we dont mix it right away - this could be improved imo. Banchan were kimchi, fish cake, sweet potatoes and bean sprouts. Kimchi is not the best - feels like it could be fermented longer but I can understand since they have a lot to work on the first week of opening. The owners and staffs were very warm and attentive which is the biggest plus of this place. They are currently soft opening so check for the hours and menu is not complete yet. Overall a good place, check it out :)

I'd probably give this place 4 stars since it's just good Korean food but because it's Austin and good non-fusion Korean food is lacking it gets 5. They play Kpop (Which my wife loves). The food from the soups, the bbq to the bowls are all so good. I can't wait for their liquor license to drink soju!

I came here with friends because we wanted to try their raw marinated crab. They're the only place in Austin to serve it! But unfortunately they had sold out by the time we got there at around 8pm. However, we were not disappointed by the food! Everything was so delicious. The seafood pancake is perfectly crispy, the galbi is tender and not overly sweet, and the soondubu is better than any other I've had in Austin. We only had to wait a few minutes for a table and the servers were attentive and helpful. They gave us refills of banchan and brought scissors for our galbi which was very considerate. The restaurant itself looks clean and modern and the art in the waiting area is lovely. I will definitely be back to try the crab!

Nestled along the bustling street of Burnet, this small Korean restaurant offers a decent amount of parking space in the plaza. Opting for the original tofu soup and a mixed rice BBQ pork and vegetable, I found all the banchan to be delightful, especially the inclusion of japchae as one of the side dishes. The mixed rice arrived sizzling, a promising sign. I allowed it to sit for another minute or two to ensure the bottom layer of rice crisped up before mixing. The accompanying sauce in the bottle added a flavorful touch, though the dish leaned more towards vegetables and rice, with minimal meat. The original tofu soup arrived piping hot, accompanied by a raw egg for you to crack into the soup. Tofu took center stage here, with ample portions, while the mushrooms and meat were limited. Opting for a level 7 spicy level, I found it lacked the heat I desired; next time, I'll aim for a higher spice level.

Obsessed. Yes, I am. Because I've been here 4 times already. The tofu soup is how I remembered it when I lived in southern CA. So flavorful and full of tofu. And there's japchae and seaweed banchan!! My favorites! I can't speak for any other items except the galbi, which would be great if the hot plate comes out hot enough to cook the onions and mushrooms. Ordered it twice and both times, the onions didn't quite cook or caramelized. I suggest arriving between 5-6pm for dinner, otherwise the wait is long. There is plenty of free parking behind the building.

Absolutely love everything about this place - the BEST service, amazing food, cute interior, and a parking lot. This is the first authentic tofu house to come to Austin and it fully exceeded every expectation. Marinated Raw Crab (5/5) - this was so flavorful, buttery soft, and loved the sauce. This is the only restaurant in Austin I know that serves this. Seafood Tofu Soup (5/5) - came out SIZZLING. Soup is packed with so much flavor, seafood, and tofu. My friends from California said it's just like their favorite shops back at home. Seafood Bibimbap (4.5/5) - the rice actually crisps up from the hot stone bowl, the first restaurant in Austin to actually do that for me. Came packed with sides but wish it came with a bit more seafood. Seafood Pancake - (5/5) - very crispy with lots of seafood and green onions Tteokbokki (4.5/5) - rice cakes are very soft and savory sauce. It's less sweet and spicy than the traditional flavor, but I still really enjoyed it. The owner and staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. They told us their backstory and checked up on us while we were waiting to be seated. I can't wait to come back!

Finally a legit soondobu (tofu soup) Korean restaurant in Austin! This place reminds me of the places in Ktown in LA. So authentic and delicious! Banchans came out fast and the server asked us several times during our meal whether we needed refills on it. The tofu soup was served with purple rice and a raw egg. They even gave us complimentary hot tea. TIP: Spicy levels are on the low side so order up!

The best Korean food I have ever had... I grew up in San Diego and have had A LOT of good Korean food in CA; however, this Austin restaurant was the best. The side dishes, seafood pancake, and the seafood ToFu soup i had were EXCEPTIONAL. The portions are the huge so you get more than your moneys worth. The service is amazing and the restaurant scenery is very nice as well :)

I was super excited to try this place as I had heard many good things, and had the seafood tofu stew and bulgogi. Overall, I was very disappointed with the taste for both dishes. The tofu stew was decent but not as strong-flavored as I would like. The bulgogi was also decent but a little on the drier side. Especially considering the prices, I don't think I would come back. I think for non-koreans I could see why this place is popular but I definitely would not say this is the best Korean restaurant in Austin

Love going to an nyeong! My go to is always the bibimbap and I love it in the stone pot so you can get the crunchy rice at the bottom. My wife loves the tofu soup, it's really good the banchan is also yummy

OVERVIEW: This place was simply amazing - authentic, high quality Korean food, efficient and friendly service, and great ambiance. Loved all of the artwork (available for purchase) throughout the restaurant, and it's very casual but cozy. When you first sit down, they offer you water and hot or iced (complimentary) barley tea! Once you order your food, they set up your banchan (small side dishes) and everything comes out made-to-order, fresh, and sizzling hot. Generous portions, incredible flavor, and perfect for family-style dining. I very much enjoyed my experience here and am excited to revisit! It's so nice having such a great Korean spot in town. QUICK FACTS: - Parking? Yes, a large open lot with plenty of spaces! - Reservations? No, walk-ins only. I recommend going early on weekends during prime times. We came around 5:30pm on a Saturday and were seated with no wait, but it quickly filled afterward. FOOD RATINGS: - Raw marinated crab (5/5): This speciality dish is hard to find, so I was thrilled when I saw it on the menu. Messy to eat, but so good! Small crabs marinated in spices and sauces, and eaten by themselves or with your rice. If you've ever wanted to try this, it's worth it! - Beef short ribs/Gal Bi (5/5): Big fan of gal bi, and this one was delicious. The marinade was so flavorful and the meat was perfectly cooked and extremely tender. - Combination tofu soup with udon (5/5): I haven't had tofu soup before, but it's a popular dish on their menu. We opted for the combination with beef and seafood. Flavor of the broth was delicious! Adding udon noodles was a great idea. They give you a raw egg to drop into the soup. - Banchan (5/5): I love the little sides of potatoes, glass noodles, kimchi, and pickled veggies. So much fun to snack on before your food arrives and to eat with your meats and rice.
