Gam Ja Chon

This Korean restaurant is the specializes in Gamja Tang (Potato Ribs Soup). You can tell from the name of the restaurant. The meals they provide are large and not expensive. I have eaten here many times.

Best Gamjatang! It’s well cooked and so easy to eat! The meat comes right off from the bone and the soup is not too salty! I think this spot is better than LA original gamjagol! Must try👍

We visited this restaurant as a group of five and ordered the pork bone soup（feel not enough）. While the meal included the option to fry rice with the leftovers, we found the portion size a bit small for our group. We arrived around 8 PM, and unfortunately, the kimchi-flavored soup we were excited to try was already sold out. Overall, the experience was okay, and we might come back again to give it another shot, hoping for a better experience next time.

Food was delicious! However the service was lacking. You have to flag them down for everything. Overall though would still come back. The price for what you get is worth it! Definitely taste the quality.

First impression is this place has a great style of Korean food, look like some traditional meals of Korean when they want to hang out with friend. Portion is large, nice presentation and well seasoned. I really enjoy the foods since It brought me some new experiences that I haven't have from other Korean restaurants. There was one tiny problem I had with the service. I don't know if they don't speak much English or maybe they just tired by the time I visited; the server didn't explain much about the menu when I ask and always forgot my side dish when I asked for extra. Definitely coming back to enjoy the special atmosphere of the restaurant and hope that I'll get a better hospitality from the servers.

Spicy pork bone soup is must order! Bibimba portion is quite small, also the sides options is not a lot. 4 stars is for flavor and new waitress ( very nice).

The food was decent, but the service was lacking. At 3 p.m., there were many customers, yet only one server was working. She was very busy, and the service was quite slow. I don’t blame the server, as she was doing her best to serve everyone. However, the lack of staff resulted in a poor overall experience.

Very delicious and good portions! You NEED to come here for their lunch specials. Incredible!! We arrived at 12:30 PM on a Friday and there was no wait. It's a little hidden away between the golf driving range and Greenland. They are known for their gamja tang and bossam, but I ordered the Grilled Mackerel and Doenjang-jjigae. Both were great quality and $16 for lunch. The mackerel was perfectly cooked! If you like oily and salty fish, this is a good option to try. The portions were big and very filling! I highly recommend.

I came in on a Wednesday afternoon around 1:30 pm and ordered the gamja tang lunch. The portion size is very generous, and I felt full after finishing my meal. The ribs were tender and absorbed the soup's flavor well, and the meat was easy to scrape off. There are bits of collagen on the bones as well which I throughly enjoyed. I didn't feel bloated either thanks to the refreshing bonchon. The radish has a nice refreshing taste that balances out the richness of the soup. I would come back to try out their other items.

Food is good, I won't complainservice is sh*t. Don't like to write fowl language, but this place waitress are really bad. Told me one of their menu item is not available when it clearly was. Didn't even bother to check at the kitchen. They forget to bring you your order or wait til you are finished with your meal to bring them out. Ring the bell multiple times and no one comes. They are really fast in bringing your check. No issues there. Definitely my last visit here. Place is dirty and unorganized. Shame shame shame.

DO NOT COME HERE TO EAT. I don't normally leave reviews and I use yelp weekly if not daily. This is one of the few places that don't give me something to leave me a review but force me to warn everyone else. We came here before 6pm. There were open tables but they made us wait 5 minutes to seat us (understandable). We get seated then order the vegetable pancake, gam ja tang (sp?), and bossam. We were waiting about 15 minutes when another table gets seated next to us and gets their ban chan immediately while we were still waiting for ours. They get their soup then we get our bossam then we keep waiting and waiting we see the table next to us get served their vegetable pancake before us even though we ordered 15 minutes before they arrive... Fast forward to 1 hour after we got there, we still haven't received our pancake or our gamjatang. By this time it's past 8pm and I just decided to cancel the two and leave. When we cancelled the lady didn't seem surprised at all and just gave us the check without even offering to give us a takeout box for the bossam (we barely touched it because we came for the soup). I am not sure if it's because we don't speak Korean or what, but as we are leaving, a family that came about 10 minutes before we left already were served their gamjatang... All I have to say is beware of the terrible service. Maybe if you are Korean they will treat you better, but they wasted our lives, it's a Friday night and we were hungry but they didn't care. To be honest their bossam was quite good, moist, they had parts that were lean and some fatty parts. Their sides were decent. So while the food was good, the hospitality was non-existent. I will never come back to a place that thinks it's ok to make you wait over an hour for your food.

I've been eating here with my family for years! It is our go to cozy meal. The gamja tang and galbi are our favorites! If you order the gamja tang, they will make kimchi fried rice with your leftover soup and it is just perfection!! Such an underrated place

Service: they are indifferent to your needs; they won't refill your waters, banchan, or get you anything unless you ask multiple times. The food is great though! So if you don't care how you're treated and plan to leave a tip that they FULLY expect (what happened to tipping for excellent service?) then def give it a try!

I've visited this restaurant several times before, but today will be my last visit! Extremely disappointed! I knew their service was bad, but I didn't expect it to be this bad. We ordered the Combo A BBQ set, but all they brought was the meat--nothing else. We noticed that the table next to us got salads, so we had to ask for them before they finally brought ours. When we went to pay, we saw that the other table also got condiments, which we never received. As for the complimentary soda, I had to go to the counter and ask for it myself. We pressed the service bell multiple times, but no one ever came! Very, very disappointing! While food quality is important, a restaurant must also provide decent service. The older staff members running around had no idea what they were doing, and everything was a complete mess! There are plenty of Korean restaurants in Los Angeles, and if they keep up this level of service, they might as well close down sooner rather than later!

Very delicious and good portions! You NEED to come here for their lunch specials. Incredible!! We arrived at 12:30 PM on a Friday and there was no wait. It's a little hidden away between the golf driving range and Greenland. They are known for their gamja tang and bossam, but I ordered the Grilled Mackerel and Doenjang-jjigae. Both were great quality and $16 for lunch. The mackerel was perfectly cooked! If you like oily and salty fish, this is a good option to try. The portions were big and very filling! I highly recommend.

Love the pork spine soup with potatoes, onion/leeks, spices and spicy broth. Comes with fish cake? Pickled daikon, jalapeño with onion in soy sauce/soy bean oil, and kimchi. Service is good if you are Korean and lingers a little if not. This place gets really packed during peak hours. They make a fried purple rice after your done eating the soup. It's a good idea to shred some of the pork meat to enhance your fried rice at the end.

Exactly what you would expect from a gamjatang place! Huge portions and good to come in a big group. Banchan here is terrible but that is not the focus of this restaurant anyways. The gamjatang was straight up from my childhood. Nothing special, just a solid, classic Korean gamjatang. It would be a shame to get a takeout from here because why would you want to miss out on the fried rice they make after you finish the soup?? Save your stomach for the complimentary kimchi fried rice, which they make using the leftover gamjatang soup. Personally I had no issue with the service -- I really did not expect some guy to be stationed in our area, and he was so attentive with everyone. It's a very traditional, hole in the wall restaurant, so I wasn't expecting this kind of over-the-top service.

I'm been to this restaurant many times before but recently with couple of church members. The store hours are 11am -9pm all week. We arrived little after 3pm and it was open for business but strangely, menu order was just limited to ; just ONE item : Gamjatang Only !!! None what so ever for an hour between 3-4pm. Because chef is on break for an hour. So we had to wait nearly an hour to order other dishes. Meanwhile eating Gamjatang which was exceptionally delicious. Best Gamjatang ever, meat was tender lots of veggie and very flavorful. By the time we waited an hour eating one dish, finally got to order other dishes but we were kind of getting full and little dredged. Other then that, service was great food was delicious.

We came on a Friday night and there was almost a full house. I would say this place has a calm, relaxing atmosphere. There's no loud music playing, and you could actually have decent conversations across the table. There were mostly older patrons and those with families. We ordered a small size of the Korean stew. It was about $40 and enough for 2. Our stew had 4-5 pork bones in it! After the stew, the server makes fried rice for you. The stew was felt like it was homemade, and hit the right spot! We also ordered the pork bossam dish. I loved this dish too! Everything was so simplistic. The pork is very tender and they give plenty of toppings.

FYI, this is a Korean owned business with a very traditional old school type of service and feel, and it is not really catered towards our super western and gentrified friends who expect service to be highly revolved around them. Workers are very old school Korean-Americans and are not really up to speed to some who are more used to a culture of excellent service. Not to say there aren't negative things about it, but it's also like a complicated cultural thing that just can't be helped. It's more for like many old school immigrants like my mom who love this place. I know very westernized foodies like to try this place and all but they should manage their expectations for everything else other than the food. I know there are things to be critical about, but goodness just let a local small business make a living. But in any case, yes just get the gamjatang, good for 2-3 people maybe 4 because it is super good. This is the only reason you should come here for. Plus they can also make fried rice out of it after you finish up most of it and it is so good! Good place to go just purely for the food! Plenty of parking since it's next to a Greenland market!

My lunch yesterday, everything was great, good service, I really like eating grilled fish at this restaurant and the soup is also great. Thanks a lot!

Best gamjatang in the SoCal area. Gives a lot of meat and the fried rice is great! Service is nice and food is always consistent. Highly recommend!

Sure, here's the English version of your review: --- I often order Gamjatang for takeout, but today my husband and I decided to dine in at the restaurant. We intended to order a small Gamjatang and Bossam, but Bossam is only available for dinner, we opted for the stir-fried squid instead. Both dishes were incredibly delicious, and the service was excellent.

5 stars for the gamjatang only. I want to try other stuff at Gam Ja Gol, but my friend and I seem to end up gorging exclusively on the spicy pork neck and potato stew. It's $40 for the small, $50 for the medium, and $55 for the large (before tax). After trying the medium and large sizes, we concluded that we should definitely get the small next time LMAO it's so much food! We usually go on a weeknight and get seated immediately. The servers are friendly and attentive, a welcome surprise for an Asian establishment. The joint has a old mom and pop feel, with gas burners built into each table. The salt levels of the banchan seem to be hit or miss. On my first visit, the fish cake was salty. The dipping sauce had too much soy sauce, and the vinegar enhanced the saltiness. The pickled cucumber and daikon was good. On another visit, all the banchan were good. Instead of fish cake and cucumber, there were spinach and bean sprouts. As for the gamjatang, I tasted the umami pork and spices in the thick broth. I think the perilla leaves added an earthy scent. As the broth reduced over time, the soup got saltier and soaked into the creamy potatoes. The meaty neck bones became fall-off-the-bone tender. You gotta use your hands and get 'em dirty. My friend asked for a side of rice, but I held off knowing there was fried rice included with the meal at the end. The rice was made at our table using our reduced broth, kimchi, and chives. Its flavor was savory, porky, and sour with the bright kimchi. SOOO good! On another visit, we also added a side of vegetables for $4. They brought out an overflowing bowl of chives and perilla leaves. I turned the heat to a low simmer, so the soup didn't get too salty. I felt slightly healthier after these changes. We came a bit late that night and tried to finish up as they were closing. They cooked our fried rice separately in the kitchen. It was still tasty, but slightly less flavorful since they did not use our reduced soup. I would go earlier next time.

The prices aren't as high as Korean restaurants nearby but the food was soo good. It was also a pretty hefty quantity. My friend and I shared the bibimbap and gamja tang and we had so many leftovers to bring home. The seating was really nice and spacious and the lighting also made everything so appetizing. The side dishes were really yummy. The staff was nice and they checked up on us often. The food also came at a reasonable time. I'm giving this place 5 stars mostly because of the quality of food for the great price.

Food is ok with the price, but service is horrible. Not recommend and will not come back anymore.

Shout out to Ji O. for this awesome gamja tang recommendation! I was in the Rowland Heights area with my mom and I was looking for a lunch spot to take her after her cupping appointment. It was a cold day so soups felt like a good choice. The interior of the restaurant looked a decent size but it was completely full and the staff was very busy. You won't get any attention unless you flag them down to order, ask ban chan refill, or get your check. At first they wanted to seat us at a small two people booth but after I told them what I wanted to order they moved us to the bigger table for the stove top. We had the small family pot of the Gamja Tang that could have fed 3-4 people. That portion was more than enough for the two of us but I wanted a cold dish to compliment the meal so I also ordered the Ssam Bap with Pork. The total after tax but before tip was about $60. Just noting that I would have preferred to order the Bo-ssam but they do not serve it until dinner. I felt so bad cause later on my mom saw a photo of it on the wall and said wow that looks good. I was like right?? I knew she would like it so that's why I wanted to order it... but they did not offer it. The business should reconsider because 3 of the neighboring tables that came at the same time as we did for lunch also asked for the bo-ssam. I mentioned it to Ji O. and she said there are times she comes for dinner and they "run out". So who knows when/if they were have it. Sigh. Anyways my mom LOVED the flavors! She enjoyed the troubles of picking the meat from the bones and the flavor of the gamja tang soup. The ssam bap was nice with the pork well marinated and we had fun wrapping it with vegetables. I enjoyed the flavors of the gamja tang but the bone situation was a lot of work and quite a mess to eat. And I recommend wearing dark colors cause if you get the soup on you it stains. Pro tip by Ji O. - She told me I could ask for a fried rice at the end. Once we were fairly full we packed most of the food togo. They took a bit of the flavored soup base and added some rice and minced kimchi and veggies. It had great flavor and contrasting textures with the bites from the vegetables and the burnt rice pieces. Yum! It took a looooooooong time for me to get the check and togo boxes. The napkins we asked for never came while the food was such a mess to eat. I might need to bring my own napkins next time. Will be back the next time my mom wants this soup, and hopefully they will have the bo-ssam on our next visit.

Date: July 9, 2023 WORSE EXPERIENCE EVER. WE WERE LITERALLY TREATED LIKE GHOST THE ENTIRE TIME. So, we're from the SFV and headed over to city of industry area for a birthday party. We decided to check out a restaurant before heading over since we were early and rarely in the area. Yelped some Korean cold noodle restaurants and this one popped up with some decent reviews and food looked good. Headed over and it's in a little plaza behind a driving range. Walked in and the lady welcomed us in Korean and once she realized we didn't speak Korean, it was game over. She literally walked back in and someone else came out and we eventually got seated. Sat down and they handed us menus and didn't say a word. We looked and asked the lady what was shown in the photo and she had no idea. Since the first page is all photos we just wanted to know what we were gonna order and she just stared at the photo saying in Korean 'what's that. I wonder what that is' (I understand some Korean but cannot speak it whatsoever). So we just google translated the food we wanted and ordered. Food arrived and she gave us some water cups. Service was literally non existent and it's not just bc they have bad customer service. It was just us. Literally EVERYONE else spoke Korean and everyone else was served. They even refilled every tables water and left ours. We even purposely tapped it to show we were out of water and they just walked by us. We had to flag them down for the bill and to refill our water too. Food wasn't cheap and wasn't the best either. 15$ for a bowl of cold noodles is hella expensive for the amount they give you. Plus with their attitude it really isn't worth a penny. Luckily for them we still tipped them 10% but I didn't want to give them a penny! What a horrible experience. Never ever coming back here again.

Diamond in the ruff. Korean food is not just all you can eat bbq. There is much much more. This place is for those that want to explore the other culinary side of delicious Korean food. Their soup is heart warming. The broth hits the soul. Servers are very friendly with great service and ambiance is of old school ambiance. Nothing fancy because it's all about great food with great company. This place provides both and more.

As you can tell from the name of the restaurant they are specializing in Korean soup gam ja tang, and they have one of the best gam ja tang in the neighborhood! Definitely recommend!

This restaurant's specialty is the gam ja tang (pork bones stew). The soup can be ordered as an individual size or as a family style pot that is cooked on the stove top at the table. The family style pot comes in 3 sizes, small feeds around 2-3 people and a large feeds around 6-8 people. We ordered a small ($39.99) with a side of noodles ($3.50). The soup was so delicious and well seasoned. The pork bones soak in all the flavor from the broth and the meat is so nice and tender. Literally falling off of the bones. There is complimentary rice which you can either ask for during your meal or if you wait until you are done with the stew, the server will come and make you kimchi fried rice. We obviously waited to get the kimchi fried rice. The fried rice is made with some of the leftover soup from the stew, making it extra delicious! Parking: this rowland heights location is inside a plaza with plenty of parking.

It has been almost ten years since very last time dine here. Guess, we didn't come at right time, pot comes full, not much flavor, salty instead. What I assume is that red soup and the bone meat cooked separately. So no matter how big portion you desired. I was pretty mad at, after I order a median size of the pot, I changed my mind 5 mins later, I kindly asked for two individual pot instead, waitress sadly said, sorry, it is already cooked, I was only stupid thinking about medium just too much food, (later I found out two individual orders cost less nearly half of a median ) . Cold wheat noodle served in ice cold which I love it, but hey! Where is that white vinegar kind of sour taste goes? I understand I might come too early, might wanna take a nap. I feel sorry to my family, the dine experience not like I've been Told them million times you should you have to try this location. Although this location described as family style thing sadly Home vibe has gone . I should practice my Korean more often now. A traditional, Korean restaurant will treat differently if you speak other than Korea.

4 stars for the dishes we ordered. 3.5 stars for the lack of customer service. We had a large party so they sat us in the front room separated from the main dining area. It's nice because we felt like we had a private room but on the down side it took them awhile for the attendants to come around. Even with a button on the table to call for service, it takes them awhile to come around. They can be a little more friendly as well. The bibimbap was delicious. The side dishes were excellent especially the fish cakes and the daikons. The grilled fish also very good. The pork backbone stew is a must! We ordered the large size and it's a HUGE portion, packed with flavor with fresh herbs and savory broth. They were generous on the amount of meat. The meat so tender they were falling off the bones.

Yum! Boyfriend introduced this place and it just takes my addiction in Korean food to another level. haha The soup is bomb! Don't let the color fool you, it's not too spicy, just don't eat the chili! lol We ordered medium size soup, comes with 6 packs of bones, tendered meat, very strong flavor. Perfect for someone me, just recovered from cold. Love that they cook the fried rice with kimchi right from the soup pan after we finished the soup. I thought I was already so full from the soup, but I can't believed that we finished the friend rice too I will come back again, with or without boyfriend! lol

This place is legit. Expect to wait 30-40 minutes for the stew to come out when it's packed, but it is well worth the wait. Come with friends and drink some BekSeju and the time will pass quickly. The bossam is so yummy! The samgyupsal is cooked perfectly and comes with all the fixings. This was my first experience eating gamja jeon gol and I loved it. It's kinda like eating crab...having to pick at your bones for the meat. I'm a sucker for bones though and love all the collagen. Next time I will definitely add more veggies. The stew reduces into a super yummy sauce and the fried rice at the end was to die for. My leftovers were even better the morning after.

This place is a hidden gem. They offer cold noodles for summer time and it's so good! Their bibimbap is also delicious and big portion. The side dishes are yummy and staff is nice. Recommend for lunch or even dinner if you want to try their bbq too!

The food tasted great, but unfortunately we had to leave early so we didn't get to the part of them cooking the rice. However our server was so nice and thought we didn't like it since our dish was still pretty full and felt bad because we ordered what she recommended and comped our takeout boxes (normally there's a charge for it).

This restaurant may be difficult to find at first as it's located in the back of the plaza, next the doctor's office. Gamjatang is a korean soup made with pork neck bones, vegetables, and potatoes. We ordered the medium size which was $50 and it was plenty for 2 people. The meat was tender and easily pulled off of the bone. I loved the green onions & the potatoes were the perfect vehicle to absorb the soup's flavors. Although this dish was good, the service was subpar. The servers would seem to ignore us when we tried to get their attention. The restaurant is also VERY quiet as there's no music. I'd still eat here, despite the other factors!

Great great great as close to Ktown GamJa tang as you can get. Get it and go. It's a must

This shop is very discriminatory and unfriendly towards Chinese people. From the front desk to the waiter, there are some old ladies and grandmothers. If they know you are Chinese, they will look disgusted or have a bad expression. I won't be here anymore anyway. I don't think this is how business should be done, especially in a multi-ethnic country like the United States, where there should be no racial discrimination. Such three views are not right! The most ridiculous is the front desk hanging Chinese calligraphy!这家店对中国人很歧视，不友好。从前台到服务员，都是一些大妈和奶奶。她们如果知道你是中国人，就一脸嫌弃，或者表情很不好。反正我以后不会再来了。我觉得做生意，不应该这样，尤其在美国这样多民族的国家，不应该种族歧视。这样的三观不正！最可笑的是前台还挂着中文书法！

So so good! My friends introduced me to this place for dinner. We ordered their combo A-- I today forgot what it was called haha. But it was basically a pork stew. We also ordered their vegetable pancake. Everything was so so so delicious!! The stew tasted amazing, the meat came off the pork bones so easily, so yummy. After the soup was pretty much gone, they then brought purple rice and mixed everything in. It created a whole new meal. Just fantastic. So yeah this place is worth coming here and eating! All in all I would give this place 4.5 stars! The only .5 missing was us not getting our waters refilled lol, but it's okay we could've been more persistent. Servers were nice, friendly, and helpful regardless. Still worth coming again!!!

Food is just ok, kinda salty, need to drink lots of water after the meal. Service is bad, we left empty cups on the table, servers passed by and never bother to refill your water. I asked for two bowels and one refill for a side dish, they never brought. At the end, we couldn't finish all food and asked for Togo boxes, server said "LA county required us to charge $1 for Togo box." This is the first time I heard about it. Then I googled online, didn't find anything about restaurants charging for Togo boxes. Never come back again.

Gam Ja Gol has been our favorite pandemic restaurants for takeout. With gamja in their name, I have only tried their gamjatang, and nothing else. They have different sizes of gamjatang available for purchase from a small lunch portion to a large portion that can feed four or more. Prices are very reasonable for the amount of food that they give you. They did set up some tables outside for outdoor dining. They have recently started indoor dining with reduced capacity. The food is a generous portion containing lots of pork neck and not too much potato. When we ordered the large portion, we ended up with so much food that we made 3 meals out of it. The large portion is enough for my wife and I to share. The food is packaged with much care. It is in a plastic tupperwarelike container and sealed to prevent it from spilling on your drive home. I've ordered on phone and in person. The owners seemed to have understood me each and every time I've interacted with them and have given me what I want. I like it. I would come here more if my non spicy food eating daughter could tolerate the spiciness of their food.

First time here. Our party of 3 enjoyed the medium Gamja Jeon Gol, Spicy Pork Bone Soup with Potatoes. It's what everyone comes here for. The pork meat falls off the bone and is really tender. Tip: After they bring out the pot, let the pork and all ingredients simmer in the broth to soak up all the flavor. Feel free to turn down the fire/heat so the broth/stew doesn't bubble out of the pot. At the end, when you think you're done eating, they'll ask if you want complimentary fried rice that comes with the Gamja Jeon Gol. Say yes and they'll pour out any remaining stew and ingredients into a separate bowl and prepare their version of fried rice, right in front of you. The fried rice is a little mushy and made with the same stew broth, kimchi, gim (edible seaweed), spring onions, and rice. I really enjoyed it and recommend everyone to try. Service was good and they speak English. So don't be afraid to try this place out. Can't wait to come back.

Came for a quick dinner with my cousins. Food was good. Lots of little dishes (the seaweed and pickled radishes were the best) and had the neckbone soup (every table had this). It was flavorful filled with broth, neckbones, potatoes and veggies. Very filling.

We can confidently say that this Korean restaurant is the best place for gam jatang (pork bone soup) among all the Korean restaurants we've tried. The ugeoji are plentiful and the pork is also generously included, which is excellent. It's really delicious. Without mentioning anything else, in terms of taste, it's the best, especially ugeoji Gamja tang .

Terrible service!!! I was called to order food many times and the lady just handed up the phone call.

This was my first time here. I had an overall great experience. The ban chan was delicious and my hot stone bibimbap came out sizzling and was so yummy!

*Outdoor dining during covid times* I was visiting home and wanted to meet up with a couple friends. They wanted to do outdoor dining, but I was super nervous since the setups I've seen are definitely not socially distanced. But I'm so glad we came here! My friend made a "reservation" for a table at 6pm on a Saturday. It really made no difference as there was no one else waiting, and we had to wait for the prior tables to finish anyway. I deeply appreciated that there are just 2 separated tents with one table per tent. Later on, there was an additional table placed to the side, which made for 3 tables total. I appreciated the restaurant ensuring their guests' safety even if it meant sacrificing some much needed profit. We each got the gam ja tang ($13), as apparently that's what this place does best. I've never had it before but it was so good! Their portion is huge so be prepared to be full. The meat was really tender, and there's a big hunk of potato in the soup. The banchan arrived in a pre-made bento box packaging. The server was very attentive and always asked if we needed anything else. If you're itching to do outdoor dining definitely give this place a try!

Randomly came here because the place we originally wanted to go to was really packed but I'm so glad we came to Gam Ja Gol. We live in a city where there aren't many Korean restaurants. Korean stew is such a staple when you're craving something warm and I have no problem driving back here. The waitresses were very friendly (and it might've helped that I had a baby they were enamored with). The gamjatang that is for 2-3 people is huge: I think it could feed four if you don't have family and friends with a ginormous appetite. If you order the gol/pot then they do not give you rice until the end so that it can be made into kimchi fried rice. You can ask for the rice beforehand but then you won't be able to have the fried rice unless you pay extra for rice just fyi. Luckily, we went around 6pm and it wasn't too packed but I do feel like it's a place that gets packed.

What started out as a place specializing in stewed mutton and potato dish native to Korea's countryside is now a full fledged, bbq station-having, Korean restaurant, hit especially hard by COVID due to being an indoor-only dinning establishment. I ordered out togo from this joint a week back: the menu was limited due to smaller operating capacity- i found out what was available for the day and went with the kimchee-pork belly stirfry and a soup togo: it came with the usual Korean accoutrement aka banchan, which were excellent btw -a hallmark of a decent Korean restaurant. The highlight was definitely the pork belly stirfry, I'd order this again in a heartbeat : the kimchee/aromatics were bordering carmelization, sweet, salty and tangy- and out from these background flavors emerged the gelatinous, satisfying bite of the fall-appart pork belly. Delicious traditional Korean food: the menu offerings may be limited due to COVID but this place is definitely togo or delivery worthy if you're hunkering for some spicy, pork belly stirfry, or Korean food in general. 4 solid stars.

I would say you yelpers got this one right. Their gamjatang is very good but not spectacular. Place was clean and service was descent. The only problem is the rest of their menu is not very good. Good enough for 4 stars

Place has gone downhill.. you place a phone order, they tell you 15 mins and then we showed up 30 mins later and waited 20 mins for our food. They don't get anything ready until you come in and pay. The chubby Korean lady at the register was extremely rude and then when I started speaking Korean to her, she said "I thought you were Chinese". Don't be racist like that

Nice services. Good foods. Very cozy place for family to hang out for dinner or lunch. Would come back there again if I can.

Gamjatang after a long day of driving around is always a good idea. But upon arrival we were seated in the side room that smelled like a dirty mop bucket. I asked if we could take one of the empty tables in the main dining room but was told they were reserved. Overall the place looks a little run down but the food was good.

We used to like the soup; but the taste has been degraded sadly. And they charged $1 for each to go container! Wouldn't return anymore.

This place serves some good Gam Ja Gol, but their customer service is terrible. At around 430pm, my wife made a reservation for the two of us for their outdoor dining for 6pm. At 557pm, the restaurant called us asking how far away we were and telling us it was 6pm already. They said they had a table that they just sat a table ahead of us and it would be a while. We were frustrated that they gave up the table that we reserved. Reluctantly, we still ordered one Gam Ja Gol and we got there promptly at 6pm. They only have one table for outdoor seating and there was absolutely no one there. They lied to us. We would have ordered more food if we were given the opportunity to eat there. Our thoughts are they got a reservation request for a bigger group, so they'd rather have the bigger bill than just a party of two. Anyways, the Gam Ja Gol we got had great flavor and was a decent size. Not enough for two people to share, but they give a lot of meat. The soup had a deep flavor and not spicy at all. I would recommend getting the food but I won't be returning until this phase of COVID is over.
