“Yookaejang (Spicy Beef Soup) Just OK”
Review of Dong Yang Inn

Dong Yang Inn
Ranked #11 of 65 Restaurants in Wahiawa
Cuisines: Chinese, Korean
Restaurant details
Reviewed 18 February 2017 via mobile

I was so excited about this visit to the Dong Yang Inn in Wahiawa town because the photos taken of their food looked great! I've been slowly introduced to a number of Korean dishes and was really excited about trying their spicy beef soup (yookaejang).

Watching everyone else being served their platters of Meat Chun or BBQ Meat made me even more anxious! Finally, my soup arrived, which I ordered "spicy hot", and it was a sea of red happiness...until I took my first few sips of their soup. I was disappointed, expecting a parade of flavors to erupt in my mouth, but ended up having to add more salt to add flavor to a pretty bland soup base that seemed to have maybe some beef broth and maybe some veggies...not what I had expected.

The four star rating is because of speed of service, reasonable prices, and quantity of foods in your order. I would go back but to try other dishes, not the soup.

The Bi Bing Bap is so good...sesame oil dripped into the bottom of the bowl, topped w/hot rice, filled with assorted veggies, and teri-beaf, and a cooked egg on top, with go ge gung (hot sauce) at the side of the dish, or not. This will replace your ordering just "tourist" Korean foods....I also order gim, (nori braised over a flame) so I can wrap my rice in the nori with Kim Chee that they serve as side dishes that come with all orders....mmmmm...my favorite place

All I can say is to get the meat jun. It is one of the best I've ever tried. The place is not the cleanest so if you don't have the stomach for it, order take out. Food is very reasonably priced and surprisingly the staff are pretty pleasant. Definitely have to try this place out!
