The best Korean food in TJ Very authentic and delicious food (home made taste), if you like spicy food this is the place, I’ll recommend you to have the Yangneom chicken this for me is the #1 dish it’s very spicy and crunchy, and even though I think they need to add some drinks (more Korean) they have a wide variety of dishes in the food menu, I always recommend this place if you want something different. It’s always crowded so be patient is worth the wait

I ordered teokboki and bibimbap. They were both very good and the portions were big as well.
