First time trying this Korean restaurant. The portions are huge! Loved the grilled beef—it’s a bit sweet and very flavorful. The army stew is super generous, perfect for this season! Great service too. Really good value for money.

The bossam was bussin, cooked to perfection. We ordered the medium size for 3 people. The I love that it comes with a bunch of delicious banchan! The pork with a bit of kimchi, a bit of pickledgreen onion, and garlic wrapped with lettuce was the perfect bite. mmmm The Premium Tripe & Brisket broth was so warm and comforting, I would definitely recommend. Can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu

Love this Korean restaurant, everything on the menu is amazingly delicious!!!! You can’t go wrong with whatever you order there. I’ve visited it a couple of times and trying out different dishes. And everything I’ve tried just kept me going back. The Braised Spicy Premium Beef Rib with Flat Glass Noodle is on my top list !!!

I went to Yuk Dae Jang on a Sunday noon, and it was a full house—we had to wait a few minutes for our seats, but it was well worth it! The yukgaejang (spicy beef soup) was rich and flavorful, and the bossam (steamed pork belly) was perfectly cooked with great sides. The banchan were fresh and generously refilled, and the service was friendly and attentive. The cozy atmosphere made the meal even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Korean cuisine—I’ll definitely be back!
