Been here a couple of times now. My finance brought the kids (8 and 11 yr old) one time, they loved it too. The tofu soup is soo good!!! Maybe the best we have ever had? (shh!) I always have to have the Bee-beem-bap....I order it everywhere I go.....It's pretty good! Seafood pancake was pretty tasty. AND the Bul-go-gi....REALLY GOOD!!... More

Was recently visiting San Jose for work and found this place reviewed in TripAdvisor. It is in a neighborhood that Google Maps has labeled as "Japantown", which is not too far from the business/hotel district. The neighborhood had the feel of an older area that had become worn down and was experiencing an upturn. It did not have the same... More

Came in just before 9pm on a weekend. We were seated in no time because we didn't mind sitting at the counter. The workers were all friendly and efficient. We ordered seafood pancake, galbee and bulgogi. The seafood pancake was excellent with generous amounts of shrimp, squid, and mussels. We were not able to finish it so we were able... More

Sweet little Korean restaurant in Japan town! Loved the bulgogi, the stone pot bee-bim bap was crunchy and tasty! Also tried the jap chae, mandu and the kim chee tofu soup, all very good! We kept emptying the little condiment dishes like the kim chee and cucumbers but the service was top notch and they would refill what ever you... More

Based upon the reviews on this site, I decided to try the Spicy Pork at Omogari.....It was better than advertised! With all of the side dishes, a bowl of rice, a mound of spicy pork and a big beer (all for $20) this is a GREAT place! More

Great neighborhood restaurant. Try the meat joon, egg battered beef...nom nom. Kallbi comes out hot and sizzling. I like to drink shoju with my meals. Service is personable. More

I've been here a bunch of times and I never go away hungry. Everything from the menu that I have tried has been good, but I keep going back to their Dae-jee Bul-go-gi Dol-sot (anything with spicy pork is really good in my opinion). Most people seem to get the short ribs, which are really tasty as well. Another great... More
