Woomiok

"For years, this classic Korean restaurant has been a destination in the Convoy District for its stellar seolleongtang, a restorative bone broth stewed for 24 hours into a milky-white soup. Popular as a great hangover cure, it’s a soup packed with vitamins, minerals, and collagen for any time one is hankering for a nutritional comfort food boost. Customize with add-ins like short ribs, abalone, or vermicelli noodles. In addition to making some of the best kimchi in the area, Woomiok also serves hot stone rice pots and seafood pancakes. Recently, the menu has expanded to include bone broth soup with dumplings and rice cakes, and spicy rice cakes with cheese." - Helen I. Hwang

"This Korean kitchen specializes in beef bone broth stews, teeming with protein and vegetables, that you season to your own taste. The Beef Bone “Emperor” Soup with brisket, ox knee, and oxtails is a favorite among regulars, as is the house kimchi." - Helen I. Hwang

"Takeout from Woomiok is as easy as visiting their website to place an order for delivery or pickup. The restaurant’s specialty is beef soup but bulgogi is also on the menu." - Darlene Horn

"Woomiok is one of the homegrown successes in Kearny Mesa, enhancing its dining scene." - Candice Woo

"A classic Korean bone soup called seolleongtang is the specialty of Woomiok, a new 65-seat eatery that was just opened on Convoy Street in the Nijiya Market plaza by the owners of Kearny Mesa’s Realm of the 52 Remedies and Common Theory. It’s San Diego first bone soup specialist, modeled after immensely popular Koreatown eateries like LA’s Sun Nong Dan and Han Bat Sul Lung Tang." - Candice Woo
