Superb quality for the price! Our group went there since there weren't much restaurants open at 8am. We were satisfied with the food quality and we were glad the waitress spoke Chinese too.
Would highly recommend the option with ginseng since the one with just chicken broth was slightly bland for our taste.

I had the ginseng chicken soup, it was so good especially the rice inside the tummy of the chicken

Wife had a abalone porridge that was very yummy as well

Highly recommend to eat here

Prices were also very reasonable, two thumbs up!

Every patron has to order their own portion. Soup is good, chicken is tender but the rice within the chicken is too soggy and sticky to be nice.

29 May 2023 - Ordered both white chicken (with Ginseng is 25000 Won while without Ginseng is 19000 Won), the taste was fine but I will think that we can try other places for ginseng chicken soup. The staff was quite pushy for us to place our orders and kept recommending the black chicken with ginseng which is the most expensive dish (approximately 30000 Won if I did not remember wrongly). As it was a Monday late morning, the place was pretty quiet, only around 5 tables filled. 🙂

Visited on 29th May 2023

Visited this place and there only 3 other tables having their meal. Decided to look at the menu before deciding what to eat. However, the attending staff keep standing beside the table and repeatedly recommending the most expensive Samgyetang. Feel irritated and thanks to our insistence to stick to our preference. 😂

Overall, the taste of the Samyetang is great. But the pricing is getting higher and higher after each year. 😣

If i had a Korean grandma and she cooked for me ginseng chicken soup, I hope it would taste as good as this

Every taste brings back memories of childhood that I never had of me growing up in korea.

The taste of the soup is deep yet light, complex and hearty. It tastes of a century of love was poured into perfecting this recipe.

I also ordered chicken jewels. Very very yummy and crunchy.

The chicken claw cake is exceptional

I would definitely recommend this place for an authentic taste of Korea. Real soul food

Regular customer here every time I go visit to Korea. Always had the regular white chicken, which had already filled my satisfaction. However, this trip I was recommended their signature black chicken, a very rare sight in the states. We were approached by the very friendly lady manager(?) who had given us a detailed and clear explanation of the dish, so we decided to try it out. Was very surprised with the dish, as it had really energized me and gave me a healthy feeling overall, with its already delicious taste. Definitely a must visit place with its historical name and popular tourist location.
