Modoo Banjeom

I can’t believe this Korean restaurant which is literally only ONE mile from our house, has been open for close to two (2) years and I just discovered it today 12.28.2024‼️ 😮 I’m glad I did because their food is delicious, their staff is attentive and friendly, and you know it’s authentic when most of their customers are Korean (it’s not an Americanized restaurant) 🙌🏼💯😋 They served a tasty Jasmine tea with some yellow pickled radish right off the bat so I could refresh myself before I even placed my order. I ordered their delicious Jajang which had plentiful noodles with black bean sauce, onions, and pork. I’ll definitely go back and bring family and friends. 👍🏼😋

We tried this restaurant for dinner and it was pretty good. They don't take reservations and the restaurant is understandably small in this complex so tables for a larger party are all near the front door. Hot tea and pickled radishes are included with every meal which is nice. A pork black bean sauce is used quite a bit in their dishes but we found it a little bit salty for our taste. We also found the garlic sauce for the bok choy cloyingly sweet for a vegetable dish. Dishes not containing eggs could still be contaminated with them. I ordered only after asking many clarification questions about ingredients. Just beware of the cross contamination issue if anyone in your party has serious food allergies!

Modoo Banjeom in Bothell offers an unforgettable dining experience with its outstanding ambience and exemplary customer service. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a cozy, inviting atmosphere that immediately set the tone for a wonderful meal. The Fried Dumplings were a crispy delight, perfectly golden on the outside and bursting with savory goodness inside. The Tangsuyuk was a standout, with its tender, juicy pieces of pork coated in a delectably sweet and tangy sauce that left us craving more. The Seafood Gan Jajang was a symphony of bold, rich flavors, featuring an exquisite balance of fresh seafood and velvety black bean sauce. Every dish was a testament to the chef's skill and attention to detail, making our dining experience truly memorable. Modoo Banjeom's commitment to quality and customer satisfaction shines through in every aspect, from the delicious food to the impeccable service. This is not your topical Korean restaurant as they do not offer kimchi or other side dishes. However, I Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a fantastic meal in a charming setting.

Exceptional service and incredibly fast! The staff is very attentive. They even gave us extra radish without us asking. It’s like they can read my mind! My favorite dish is the Jajang; the noodles are perfectly soft, and the sauce is so tasty. I also love the fried chicken. It’s crunchy, flavorful, and not too sweet. The place is very busy, and by 5 pm on Friday, it was almost full. Highly recommended!

Yeah this place is just amazing, great service, the food is definitely tasty.... Basically the value for the food is absolutely worth it. My Japtang rice came full of seafood and I left so full so happy and definitely gonna come back. I value those amazing local restaurants alot and I don't see many good restaurants in WA in general but this place is definitely a highly recommended one.

I ordered the jjajang, and my partner had the seafood noodle soup. We also got sweet and sour pork. The jjajang and pork had a slight sweetness, but the seafood noodle soup was perfect! We really loved the food and the service!

Good food, decent price, and great service. Had the combination A and it was quite a bit of food so a great deal. The menu says that it's for two people but it can definitely feed three. I had a great time here.

I've heard a lot about this place so I had to go check out the triple combo. First of all, I would really like to call out the exceptional service. They have a provided, which is rather unusual for a Korean restaurant. if I were to judge the restaurant just for the service they would get five stars now about your dish. I'll say it is any good has any other Korean Chinese restaurants in this area. The presentation was great for all three dishes. The seafood champong was alight but it lacked the depth. The chachangmyun looked great but was alight. I wouldn't say it was bad but nothing to highlight. The 탕수육 was , I would say, definitely better than the average but the sauce was okay. Overall all three dishes tasted similar to a typical instant food. Given the amazing service I would totally come back if I am in the mood for Korean Chinese dishes.
