It's definitely a popular place. My friend and I walked in for dinner on a Tuesday without a reservation. We got seated upstairs immediately. We got the Bossam, small rice cake, two beers, and a soju bottle. Everything was delicious, including the many banchan. We were so full by the end. Servers were nice and attentive.
Great place to eat, open late, serves cinammon tea at the end. Very good to stay late and talk with people.
Surprised at the low rating on Yelp, only looked after finishing my meal. Ordered the LA Galbi Lunch Combo, which came with Bibim Naeng Myun (spicy cold noodles). Decent amount of food for the price. I mention this because I saw reviews mentioning price, but most of the other restaurants nearby are doing an LA Galbi combo at about the same price range, so didn't think there was an issue there. Enjoyed the food, packaged well (takeout) and nice banchan selection. Wish maybe there was a small container of rice to go with the galbi, but other than that, was great.
Great meal and feast. So much to choose from. Loved their panjun too! Yummy!! Get the noodles n bibimbap
Stopped by here for their BBQ and regular dishes. It was good classic Korean food! Nothing to rave about, but they do it very well. The barbecue is done right and they grill the meats for you. I loved the marination on the steak and beef and found it very tender. The glass noodles had lots of seafood and veggies and were bouncy and chewy! I also really liked their spicy rice cakes. They have two floors inside and can serve big groups easily too. Service was great and they were very attentive when helping grill the meats.
I finished my meal before looking this up on Yelp and I am surprised with the current lower rating. Came here for lunch on a very sunny summer saturday after walking under the sun, so was looking for some cold noodles. The kongguksu does just that - a soothing soybean broth (that you can control the saltiness with salt on the side) served cold with thin noodles. This together with a bottle of Asahi beer hit the sweet spot perfectly. I also shared the bossam with my table and it is delicious as well. Frankly I have not tried the BBQ items - but at least I can say the cold noodles and bossam are great and good for price too.
Had a pretty lovely late-night experience, maybe that's the way that the Kunjip should be experienced considering the range of reviews here. Came here around 11pm as a group of 4, seated immediately upstairs because it's not busy at this hour. The waitstaff were friendly and welcoming. Our food came quickly. Got a huge Korean BBQ to share, which was so flavorful and nicely grilled in front of us in multiple courses. Plenty of lettuce, sauces/salt, and banchan. Would be back again!
I was nervous to come here because of the conflicting reviews, but I had a good experience with both the food and service. We ordered the galbi tang and dolsot bibimbop + soybean soup combo. The galbi tang had a generous amount of meat and the soup was a satisfying flavor that wasn't overly salty like some places can be. I would definitely recommend this one! The bibimbop combo was what we had expected, I just wish their gochujang sauce was spicier. Overall, their banchan selection was pretty good too, but their cabbage and radish kimchis were disappointing. Hopefully, this will be improved!
This place was recommended to me. I ordered the ground beef bulgogi but the beef was so finely chopped that I didn't even taste it. I tasted more rice. I was disappointed. It wasn't cheap. For $25, I expected more protein or at least taste it. The service was good. I had some free Korean appetizers that were tasty. I can't say I would be back. The price point is high.
