the food was great and the employees were respectful. even though the outside looks dirty, the inside is quite clean. i ordered a rice cake soup, and it was salty and delicious. wonderful experience overall

They have the BEST fried chicken I've ever ate. The "beer" is awesome as well. Everything comes in BIG portions so most meals you can split.

It doesn't get any better than this.There was a wait so they put us in a karaoke room for about 10 minutes, what fun. Then back down for the Korean BBQ, seafood pancake and bimbinbop. Everything was fantastic, the staff kept an eye on us and ensured everything was done to perfection. We have 2 kids 7 and 9 they both loved it.

Took The Missus (bless 'er) and The Kid out for lunch to Jong Kak- basing the visit on recommendations from other Google reviews. The place was clean and well-lit. The service was prompt and very pleasant. When we requested an extra serving of one of the pickles, the server seemed very pleased and brought them out right away. About those pickles: The pickled jalepeno and sprat combination was truly inspired. The other pickles that came to the table were the usual suspects served at a Korean establishment and were all fresh and tasty. But the jalepeno and sprats! Our main courses of 'Bi Bim Bap' and 'Glass Noodles with Beef' lacked a sense of "pop" that one normally associates with above-average Korean cuisine. There wasn't anything wrong with it, they just didn't really make the old palates rock out. If we were to find ourselves nearby and requiring somewhere to sit down to eat, we would definitely visit again. Maybe go for the BBQ next time...

Yes. They were on doordash, but the owner never gave a reason why of the accounts of stopping. Sorry I don't have more information for you.

Does anyone know if they’re open for dine-in during COVID-19?

They are at 1/2 capacity i think. I ordered take out and there were people dining in and it was very clean and distancing was well organized.
