Yuk Dae Jang San Gabriel

I have to say that the Korean-style bossam is absolutely delicious! The pork belly is marinated and braised, giving it a rich, flavorful exterior. I also recommend the seafood noodles for anyone who loves shrimp flavor

Today, I brought the whole family to have Korean food at Yuk Dae Jang and drink some beef soup. In the end, only Grandma actually drank the soup--everyone else just focused on eating the meat I really liked the minimalist interior design of the restaurant. The dark gray walls paired with warm lighting gave off a very clean and cozy vibe. We ordered the Beef Brisket Sullung Tang with Glass Noodle, the Premium Bossam (boiled in various herbs, small size)--which is steamed pork belly served with napa cabbage--the Prime Beef Bulgogi with Glass Noodle, and two portions of handmade dumplings for the kids. The pork belly was especially popular--my wife and I nearly finished the whole plate ourselves. Then came the dumplings, which were almost completely devoured by the two kids. Grandma really enjoyed the beef soup; since she eats on the lighter side, it suited her taste perfectly. Everything stayed hot really well--the beef soup and grilled pork belly were kept warm with gas burners at the table, and they were served in stone pots, which retain heat better. The servers were very attentive and provided timely service. Overall, it was a great dining experience.

We came here with a big party of 10 people, and there was only one waiter when we came. He was very friendly and quick with our orders. We got a bunch of banchan and refills upon requests. The service was surprisingly very quick despite it being a bit busy with just the one server. All our food basically came out at the same time. The food was good, but nothing out of this world. I’d say for the portion size you’re paying a reasonable price. The dishes were full of ingredients and is def enough to make you satisfied. We ordered the brisket cold soup buck wheat noodle, handcrafted mandu & rice cake in ox bone broth, and steamed mandu. My fav was the rice cake in bone broth as it’s so comforting and filling! The restaurant is a bit small, so I’d recommend coming in smaller groups. The plaza has plenty of parking, and there’s shops to explore if you’re waiting for seating at the restaurant!

This is one of my favorite Korean spot in the SGV. The drinks are so cheap now, 6.99 for soju and 5.99 for beer. The seafood hot pot has good portion and with different kinds of seafood. The bossam is also tasty. The service was great and the place is clean.

**✨ General Beef Bone Hot Pot** Tender, flavorful ribs in a spicy-sweet broth with noodles, rice cakes, and veggies. Sweeter than SND's version—great for sweet lovers! **✨ Cold Noodles** Icy and refreshing—perfect after spicy food. **✨ Codfish Beef Bone Soup** Rich, savory broth with tender cod. Comfort in a bowl!

Best Yukgaejang in LA. We used to go to the koreatown location but now the San Gabriel location is even closer to our home. My kids love their beef soup too.

This place never misses when you're craving pork belly, ramen or spicy naengmyeon. The banchan is delicious and the servers help refill when needed. Great for groups to share. A medium is good for 2-3 people but there are other dishes to add or try for larger groups.

Best pork belly ever! As good as in the original store ink-town.. the herb infused bossom is so good! Add the bean sauce, garlic & jalapeño and your taste bud will take you to wonderland!!!

Came here on a Thursday for lunch and it was pretty much empty. There were 3 of us so we decided the shared the Bossam (small), beef Sul Lung Tang, and Brisket Cold Noodle. The Sul Lung Tang was definitely the perfect comfort food for the cold day. For the Bossam, they brought out a small portable grill with water at base to steam the pork which I found interesting as I hadn't seen that done in other Bossam similar places. The pork was cooked well and tasted great. Loved how we could steam the lettuce wrap with everything as well. Cold noodle was a good contrast to the other two warm dishes. We all basically just took turns eating small bites of all the dishes. Felt the meal was quite filling since they also brought out all the traditional Korean sides as well. Servers were very attentive and nice as well. Would definitely come back especially if I'm craving Korean comfort food!

Wanted to try a new place, but unfortunately I will not be back. Nothing special about this place and i was very underwhelmed. The only thing i enjoyed was the green onion side, the rest was ehh. fish cake which is usually my favorite was barely touched. We ordered Premium Pork Belly (S) $21.99 Angus Brisket Spicy Cold Bibim Noodle $16.99 Prices were normal. the meat on the spicy cold noodles were different. I've never seen this type of meat used on cold noodles. I'm not mad at it, but the flavor of this was completely lacking and it was not spicy. after mixing in the red sauce, you can see the noodles were still not red. Asked for more sauce, we were told there would be a charge. I've never been charged for a sauce at a korean place but whatever, paid the $2 cuz the noodles needed more flavor. Even with the additional sauce, it was underwhelming and this is always my favorite dish to order at all korean places. pork belly was okay. i wouldn't order it again. i think my mom makes better. Sorry but one and done.

I'll keep this review short and sweet. We all had soup dishes and they were all fantastic. You get a lot, and the quality is excellent. You can't go wrong with anything you order, and the prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of what they serve. There was a Yelp check-in deal for a free thermal grocery bag, but they didn't have any. Boo!! Still, the place is clean, the service is good, and so is the food!

I got a togo order because I was craving soup on a cold day and im too far from Korea town. This place was so yummy the broth was flavorful and they are generous with the beef. (I would have liked more noodles though) The Ban Chan was also super yummy (kim chi and tofu skim) would like to go eat at the restaurant to gain a better understanding of there menu but definitely a tasty spot.

My wife and I went to get Army Stew. Sooo perfect for cold weather. We had a late lunch, around 2pm. It was delicious filled with tender, fatty pork meat, spam, chewy ramen, mushrooms, cabbage, sausage, tofu, and savory & spicy soup. Service was amazing, very attentive- our server came by with cold water (for me) and hot tea (my wife) every time without asking when we were close to empty. We highly recommended for the army stew along with other individual stews. The stew is good quantity for 2-3 people, plus the purple rice was delicious with the soup. The banchan was great for me, but the kimchi was a bit too squid-y for my wife. We love this place. We'll be back soon!

Located in the same plaza as Bonchon, half&half good old time, Phoenix, katsu sando, etc. at the corner of Las Tunas and Mission Drive - down the street from the San Gabriel Mission. Been coming here a few times a year now. Service is always really great, no complaints there. The size of the space is a little smaller but they maximize their seating as much as they can. The space is always super clean. Food quality is always spot on. The consistency - I have never been disappointed and the flavors always hit. Two popular dishes that my friends and family always order are the Yuk Dae Jang w/ Ramen and the Bibim cold noodles (spicy). I find that the yuk dae Jang pairs best with ramen noodles. Great dishes to share or have individually. Come in on a cold or hot day, and regardless, you'll be satisfied with Korean flavors here!

I tried to go to some other restaurant but the line was so long we ended up here and it was great! I got the intestine ygj and it was yummy, loved the sides. The food was good and simple, no need for extra frills. Just like what I would have at home.

This is comfort food. In the warm summer months, we like to come here for their cold bibim noodles (which we learned from experience - are best eaten fresh and not home-delivered because they clump!) On cold evenings, we come for the delicious, heart and soul-warming Yuk GaeJang with ramyun noodles, and a side of octopus or pork dumplings. The banchan is minimal but the friendly staff will refill. Generally, the portions are huge, and it always amazes me when we look around and see that other tables (even parties of 1 or 2) have ordered tons of stuff. Which says something about how good the food is.

The SEAFOOD soup with the addition of fresh pasta got my attention- I ordered the individual sized portion : Fresh clams, muscles, shrimp in a delicious broth -not fishy, just pure umami bliss! The Hot Pot family style size version seemingly has more variety of seafood. A must try! The restaurant specializes in Korean style beef-bone broth soups/stews (Yuk GAE Jang) and pork belly appetizer wrap (Bossam). Most Popular dish here is the Braised Short Rib Hot Pot called Galbi Jjim - every table on my visit was ordering this! The cold noodles was also recommended. Overall, I think anything on their menu is going to be very good. Parking is a pain in the busy plaza, luckily street parking was easy in the area. Service was efficient, ambiance casual. Yuk DAE Jang is a famous chain in Korea that made its way to SoCal (LA/OC County to San Diego.... Texas also has a location!) Am glad they open up in SGV!

This is a great spot to get Korean food if you're in the SGV without having to go into K Town. I shared an Original Yuk Gae Jang with Ramyun and Braised Spicy Premium Beef Rib, both of which were very flavorful. Not sure if I'd order the Original Yuk Gae Jang with Ramyun again though since there wasn't that much meat in there so it feels like paying $20 for mostly instant noodles.

This place is amazing especially if you are looking for share soup with a group of friends. My go to is the army stew; it has a good variety of ingredients and a decent amount of ramen. I would say this place has one of the best bossam dishes (order the premium bossam boiled in various herbs). Service is okay but would highly recommend because of the food.

It's been awhile since I've came here and remembered that the food was really good. I had to revisit to get some food Togo but the price is so high for the quality of the food~ I understand that everything is expensive but this price is really ridiculous for the quality of the food you get. I was so disappointed by the food because it was really not good and the amount was so small compare to the price I paid. The service there is pretty decent nothing spectacular. There couple tables inside it's not huge. I don't think I'll be going back. The reason is the quality of the food and the price.

I ordered the spicy ramen and it was really bad experience. The portion is very small. The noodles and soup are salty and I have to add water to dilute it. It gives a few beef string. and the worst of all, it's $20?! I have to get a meal from McDonald across the street after this. Honestly Shin ramen that I cook is better than this. I would never come back. no wonder there is no wait on Saturday night.

Came here with the family on a late Friday night to avoid the long wait. I have to say the service at this locations isn't as great and attentive as the one in Rowland Heights. We had to ask for side dish refills and ice water refills whereas the Rowland Heights location, we didn't have to ask. And the RH locations were busier during the time we went there. Food still tastes great. We ordered the pork belly, the steam octopus dumplings, and the seafood yukdaejang with ramyum. Ambience was ok. It's smaller than the one in RH. If you're in the area and craving for some Korean food and don't want to drive to RH, this place will do. Service is average compared to RH.

We were seated promptly. 2 other tables arrived after us - about 7 people. We ordered before the tables that arrived after us. My husbands yuk gae jang with ramyun arrived in normal time. However I waited and waited for my sul lung tang. The 2 tables that arrived and ordered after us received all their food while I was still waiting. My food arrived 14 mins after my husbands. That was extremely disappointing. However the soups were incredibly delicious. The side dishes (there were only 3 of them) were kind of lacking though.

Came here with my husband for a lunch date. It was a rainy day so there was hardly anyone and our server was able to take care of us. It was nice and quiet and there were plenty of tables. We ordered the Original Yuk Gae Jang with pasta and the small bossam for us to share. It was the perfect amount. Everything was sooo good! Our favorite is the bossam. It comes with a lot of sides including a cabbage, kimchi, some bean paste and other stuff and that don't really know what it is. I would definitely come back to try more. If you haven't tried bossam, I highly recommend it.

When this restaurant first opened, the line was long. I always ordered the mandu in soup. It was so hearty with the rice cake. The banchan was delicious and I hope they give me more. I dined in the restaurant and it was pleasant. I feel that the pricing is a little steep when compared to other ones.

OMG!!!!!!! This is my favorite restaurant. Still yukdaejang and bossam is best. When I eat dumpling in restaurant doest smell anything. I got to go frozen dumpling......pork smell...really bad. I throw all the dumpling. Don't buy to go frozen dumpling!!!!

I love this place! Their bossam is so good and their soup is so flavorful. Be aware that the parking is limited.

I've always wanted to try this place because I love eating Korean food. My friend was also craving Korean food so we decided to check this place out. I am glad to see one of my favorite Korean dishes on the menu mandu & rice cake soup which I ordered. They have a mixture of items on their menu to choose from. The service is fast and friendly. I would come back here again for the convenience of not having to drive to K-Town for my favorite dish.

Probably my fave spot in SGV for yuk dae Jung and pork bossam. The small pork bossam and the original yukdaejang is a very good portion for 2 ppl. I'm a noodle soup kinda gal and the soup broth is always flavorful and the noodles have a good amount of chew. The ambiance is very casual. They also have a variety of alcoholic beverages, which I often indulge in when eating Korean food. The service is always very tentative even when they get kinda busy.

We were craving Galbi jjim so we decided to try this place. The ribs had great flavor and we really like the kombucha and the glass noddle with the short ribs. We also order their bossam, which was great with the napa and fresh kimchi. Love that we have another option when we crave galbi jjim. We will definitely be back to try their other items.

I really enjoy the atmosphere in this restaurant. It feels like a small, cozy Korean house, perfect for gathering with family and friends. We ordered the cold noodles and beef brisket sul long tang, both of which were delightful. The sul long tang was packed with flavor and ingredients, including plenty of green onions and glass noodles, which I love. The cold noodles were excellent, especially with mustard, and were loaded with ingredients like cucumbers and radish. The side dishes were amazing, with the fish cakes being my personal favorite. We also ordered the small bossam, which was the highlight of the meal. The combination of the bossam and sul long tang was perfect. The service was great, with our server checking on us and refilling our sides regularly. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to my friends!

Food: Original YukGaeJang with Custommade Ramyun - (5/5) I don't typically like Korean soups that much but this one was actually really good. It had the perfect spice level and packed with flavor. Premium Bossom Boiled in Various Herbs - (5/5) It was my first time trying this and it was very yummy when I combined the Bossom with other herbs and veggies to eat. Food is a bit pricey but I ate it family style and shared with a friend. It's up to you to determine how worth it is for you! Ambiance and Service: The place is small and kept pretty clean. The service was efficient. You may have to flag them down here and there but there were no difficulties with the staff. The food also comes out together at a decent pace. I would definitely come back here! Parking: Finding parking may be a bit tricky in this center since it's a bit small. You may have to find parking elsewhere and walk over.

Always delicious and hits the spot. Their dumplings are baby-fist sized. You can't go wrong with anything on this menu. I wish the service was more attentive. Usually it's bunch of younger guys chatting amongst themselves and we have to constantly ask for water or really try to flag someone down. Parking is hit and miss as it tends to be a pretty full lot but street parking is available.

The food and the price of the food is decent but what baffles me is their policy. We ordered the spicy noodles and we couldn't taste the spice so we asked them to make it spicer for us. We got charged $2 extra for it. Which was like okay "some" places charge extra for sauce. Then when we wanted to go containers. We got charged an extra 25 cents. Now that is a little petty. I mean just increase the price of all your dishes by a 25 cents. No one will notice but charge a 25 cents for to go containers. That makes me feel like you nickel and dime.

One of my favorite bossam places in 626! Their kimchi is yummy and their napa cabbage always tastes fresh. Service is good too, all the workers are friendly and quick to refill side dishes.

We dropped by for a quick dinner on a Monday at around 4:30pm while we were in the area! Parking wasn't an issue since they share a lot, and it wasn't very busy at that time. Seating was simple, but relatively comfortable. Service was quick, smooth, and helpful- our server brought us refills of side dishes quickly when they were emptied, which we definitely appreciated! Now, for the food: -Small Bossam: initially, we wondered if the portion was too small for us (party of 3, 1 hungry, 2 somewhat hungry), but by the end of our meal, we were glad we stuck with the small! It was filling, and the bossam had a more complex (almost smoky?) flavor than your typical bossam, thanks to the herbs they use. It had a little chew, but wasn't tough. I stuck with the bossam with a little ssamjang and leek/onion/carrot mixed in a soy sauce-like sauce, wrapped with napa cabbage. -Yukgaejang with custommade (housemade?) ramen noodles: tender noodles that are similar in shape to instant ramen noodles, but slightly flatter, with some shredded beef, lots of green onion, egg, and broth that looked way spicier than it actually was (it didn't seem spicy at all to me, but it was still tasty!). Overall, we were happy with our early dinner! The quantity was perfect for us, and while the price was a little high, the food felt healthy and tasty!

Delicious yukdaejang and pork belly! Food came out quick. Side dishes were very fresh.

Honestly, I was so excited to come here because of all the positive reviews, but based on my experience, this place is average. Service was average, it wasn't bad but we had to keep asking for things. We ordered the Kim chi dumpling and it was good. The best thing we had. We had a couple of their soup with ramen and pasta noodles and it was just okay. Nothing to write home about. They charged us $0.50 for Togo containers. I thought that was really tacky.

The restaurant is located in a plaza with plenty of parking lots. The restaurant is not too big with simple decors. The service is excellent! Get you what you need pretty fast. I have to say, their noodles are so good. I and my friend love their cold wheat noodle. She said it's the best she has ever had.

It was our first time here and it has a medium sized dining room with 8 tables for 2-4 ppl and 1 table for 6 people. My parents and i went a lil after 7pm and there was only 1 group ahead of us on the waitlist so it was about a 20-25 min wait which wasnt too bad. We ordered the premium pork belly with various berbs and it was so good. Because we ordered the pork belly... It came with sides to go with it including fish cake, white kimchi, regular kimchi, jalapeno and garlic, bean curd and plum, chives, shrimp paste and a bean paste. Im normally not into eating the sides that come with the meal but my favorite was the white kimchi because there was less seasoning compared to the spicy kimchi but there was still so much flavor and it paired perfectly with the pork belly. We also ordered the brisket with glass noodle which was my 2nd favorite dish. The glass noodle and brisket paired perfectly together... The soup was a little plain but also still so flavorful and allowed me to add anything to flavor the soup a little more which was great! The brisket was tender and was cooked to perfection (chefs kiss). The glass noodle itself was definitely the best also and wasnt overcook or undercooked. Lastly we ordered the cold buckwheat noodle with brisket and the noodle and brisket was flavorful but the noodles were a little hard to chew through for my father and I but it was still good and refreshing on this hot summery day. We will definitely come back for the pork belly and all of the sides that come with it but maybe try another dish next time. Just a heads up tho... If you check in on yelp they give you a free thermal bag til July 16th i believe!

There is nothing better than an icy cold bowl of naengmyeon in the summer heat! I came here with a friend last week, during the intense heat wave. I always have cold noodle cravings when it gets hot in LA. I've heard a lot of buzz, so I was worried about a wait, but thankfully the restaurant was pretty empty when we arrived; service was quick and no-frills. If you're looking for a restaurant with lots of ambience, glitz, and cute decor, this might not be the best place for you. BUT, if you're looking for a no-nonsense, authentic restaurant with affordable and generous portions of delicious noodles, I recommend Yuk Dae Jang! They're known, as you can guess from their name, for their Yukgaejang, but their naengmyeon was delicious and came in a huge serving. The mustard they offered is very potent, just FYI - it's usually more of a mild, dijon flavor, but theirs almost burned my nostrils. Still, I enjoyed the food and the cold A/C in the midst of 100+ temperatures. I'll be back again!

Why does getting bossam have to be like signing up for T-Mobile? Why do I need to find 3 other people just to make it affordable? Yuk Dae Jang uncomplicates lunch and life with S, M, & L bossam portions because not everyone comes with an entourage. The S bossam and a soup were a good portion for 2. They charge a quarter for each to-go box so finish your food, kids! The pork was tender and flanked by the usual fermented bean paste and shrimp sauce for dipping. Pickled julienned radish was fresh and crunchy. Remember to layer on that raw garlic and jalapeño for kicks. A few letdowns. The brine used to boil the pork differ place to place, and here, it didn't infuse much flavor into the meat. They also didn't salt the napa to make it soft for wrapping. "Ssam" means "wrapped" after all so it was a bummer they served the cabbage just torn up and untreated. The Mandu & Rice Cake in Oxtail Broth was exceptional, one of the best I've ever had. The mandu had the aroma of white onions and a meaty texture. It was satisfying and minimal on fillers. The shredded brisket on top was a smart umami finish. Service was good enough, and the ambiance, straightforward. Though the bossam wasn't perfect, the mandu soup was, and with so few places offering smaller bossam options, Yuk Dae Jang is worth another visit at some point.

I came in for a late weekend lunch so they were not crowded. I ordered the bossam (pork belly), naeng myun (cold noodles) and mandu dumplings. All of the food was delicious and service was spot on. One thing that surprised me was they brought out a portable burner to our table so I questioned our servers what was this for. She said it was to keep the Bossam warm and tender. That's a first for me. As we were eating, the Bossam was warm and tender throughout the meal. That extra touch was impressive to me. Tip: order the cold noodles with the spicy sauce on the side. It makes the noodles more tasty in my opinion.

/)/) ( . .) ( づvery very god bossam. Juicy and flavorful. The kimchi pork mandu I wouldn't recommend getting because wasn't anything special or outstanding. BUT the seafood soup with fresh pasta was amazing! No bad seafood flavor at all. The broth had like a ramen soup taste to it. Very fresh and 100% would recommend! Service was outstanding. Very friendly and attentive. Can't remember a place (especially Asian restaurants) that had such good service. Small cute place, comfy inside. Would always come here again whenever I don't want to drive to ktown!

On a cold winter night, nothing hits the spot like a nice and hearty dish. We came here for an early dinner, and thank goodness we did because it was quite busy as we were wrapping up. Here's what we ordered: - Braised spicy premium beef rib with flat glass noodle: I wish I took a picture of the initial presentation, but they cut the beef and pumpkin in front of you. The broth was incredibly flavorful, and I honestly don't even know how to describe it. There was a lot of beef, and the beef was really tender. This dish is mostly beef and pumpkin with some chunks of potatoes, mushrooms, and the occasional rice cake. There weren't as many noodles as I thought, which is totally fine. The noodles were very thick and chewy (in a good way). Highly recommend this dish, don't let the price scare you. I think you get your money's worth! - Handcrafted mandu & rice cake in ox bone broth: We wanted to try something different and the waitress recommended something non-spicy to pair with the dish above. I loved how refreshing yet flavorful the broth was. The mandu were really large and the rice cakes were cooked perfectly. Service was very attentive despite how busy things got. Be aware, you have to pay 25 cents per takeout container. There's a plaza parking lot, but it looked like it was quite busy since there are several restaurants in the plaza.

I've rarely had bad experiences at this Yuk Dae Jang location. I normally order the bossam and the ox tail bone broth. The bossam is cooked perfectly and goes so well with the cabbage and toppings. The bone broth is extremely hearty and flavorful, and the mandu's not bad at all (I'm not a fan of mandu in general though). The service here has been usually great for me. I will admit that there were one or two visits where I felt they were a bit slow and it wasn't particularly busy, but they haven't been noticeable to the point where I remember them well. Occasionally I have to raise my hand to get their attention, but they usually return with whatever I asked for pretty quickly. The vibes in here are typically full of happy chatter and kpop music playing in the background, so it's a great place to gather and eat with friends or family. The location is close to many other dessert places, which is so convenient. Definitely one of my favorite Korean restaurants in SGV!

4 stars. I ordered the spicy brisket bibim noodle and I thought it was a really refreshing and flavorful. The noodles were nice and chewy, and when all the ingredients and sauce are mixed together, the bites were all well balanced. The ice on the noodles keep it nice and cold, so this would be a perfect summer dish. I wish the sauce was a little spicier, but it was still pretty good. The beef brisket was dry, but it added a good balance to the dish. The portion size was also really good for the price so I felt that the meal was worth it. There was also banchan in the beginning and our table kept asking for more of the fish cake. The service was good, food came out at a reasonable time and the waiter gave us more sides every time we asked. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and would go back for the noodles.

This is the to go when you want korean authentic stew with premium ingredients. Yuk Dae Jang's Yuk Gae Jang (yes, you read that right) have broth that reach to your soul, with premium meats and tripe that is clean as a whistle. Premium comes at a price though, i kinda felt like at this price, the portion is rather small especially when it comes with only two banchans.

Yugaejang hot pot and the Premium bossam with house special soy sauce were on point and hit the spot last night. Also, with the Baekseju was so good. I'd like to go back there again soon. Thank you for the great service and the food. Cheers to that!

THIS IS THE BEST LOCATION! We've been to the LA one and the Diamond Bar/Rowland one and both were just ok... but this SGV location had the best tasting food and service! Cold noodles were excellent. LOTS of shredded beef, cucumbers and radish toppings and broth was served icy cold. Bossam was also good. We got the small as appetizer and the pork was fresh and tasty! Galbi jjim is $80 but totally worth it as it can easily feed 2-3 adults. The meat was soft and tender, not too crazy sweet like other places and we got it less spicy and it wasn't too hot. Delicious! Definitely go check it out.

Well made! Tasty sides :) Generous size. Great place for dinner - hope to come back and try more dishes.

We came in on a Saturday night and there was no wait. We got the yuk dae jang and pork belly and it was a good amount of food to share among 3 people. The meat was soft and paired well with the sauce and sides provided. Something to note - take out containers have a small fee!

If you like spicy and handmade noodles, you should definitely come here to try their Yuk Dae Jang with handmade noodles. The broth is so good and the handmade noodle texture complements the broth very well. Also a must try is the pork belly! If you have a party of 2-3, the small portion is plenty. It's pretty busy on the weekend during dinner since the place is small. But during the weekdays, there is usually tables available so no wait. I really like the service there. They were very nice to not kick us out of the restaurant when it was closing and didn't charge us for the togo boxes for our leftovers.

Came here for dinner with my partner last night. UGH so delicious!! Since this was our first time trying this place out, we both wanted to get their signature dish. I ordered the yukgaejang with fresh noodles, while my partner got the yukgaejang with ramen noodles. Both were incredible. The stew was bursting with flavor; it was spicy and savory with a slight tang- it was everything I wanted and more! I did like my partner's ramen noodles better, while he happened to like my fresh noodles better, so we ended up swapping our bowls midway through lol! Parking is easy; this Yuk Dae Jang is located in a plaza with a parking lot. Prices are fair, since the ingredients seem fresh and the portions are large. What a great Korean spot!! I know I'm going to crave this again and for sure will be coming back.

I'm obsessed with this noodle soup. If you get the lunch special, you can get the pork belly bossam and the soup. Definitely big enough to split between 2. Original yuk dae jang is so so delicious! A perfect alternative when you can't get your BCD Tofu fix/just don't want to drive to K Town.

The family decided to get dinner here on a Saturday at 6pm. Luckily, we had no wait but the restaurant got packed very soon after. This parking lot isn't too big either, so it can get tricky finding a spot. I'd suggest to come early to avoid all this. Between the four of us, we ordered the Premium Seafood Hot Pot with Noodle ($59.99) and Medium Premium Bossam Boiled in Various Herbs ($45.99). To start, the table got three plates of banchan, which are unlimited. They offered kimchi, fishcake, and chives. There isn't that many offerings, but they do give large portions. For the bossam, it also comes with some banchans which you can get more of, but only if you still have the bossam left. The bossam is fun to eat as it's a DIY to put together with all the toppings. It wasn't too much flavor and is pretty simple overall though. I enjoyed the hot pot more because the soup broth was so flavorful and delicious. It also had a kick of spice that I loved. There was also plenty of seafood that is soaked in the flavors. Although it was a tad pricey overall, the food is good and made for a good experience.

Delicious! Got the regular yuk dae jang with purple rice and tried the rice cake dish as well. Everything was deeply flavorful and the portions were large. Service was friendly and I liked the bright, clean interior. If I lived in the area, I'd def be back!
