10. The Tea Bar
Reviewed By jovs29
We had opportunity to visit this place through a friend. We were amazed how tasty their Mango tea was. The owner, Dave was very welcoming, friendly and attentive. He chatted with us and gave us a refill. Their red velvet lava cake is so scrumptious! If I were not from out of town, I'd unwind here to end my day. Dave even sent us off and opened the door for us when we left, how awesome was that, that's almost unheard of this time and age. Keep it up, Dave!

My son wanted to eat at this place forever and the food in fact is very good, strong original flavors. Service is friendly and willing to explain options/selections which can be confusing if you are not too familiar with cuisine.Each table has a burner for shabu and table top cooking. The feel is of Korean fast food place. There are ample tables, the floor is concrete, utensils ( chopsticks) are metal. The place is white and spacious.Very simple look and feel.Overall not my kind of place, but food is really good and recommend to everyone who likes pho or noodles. Just know you are coming got food.

We ordered the steak with garlic chips and it was absolutely delicious, I definitely recommend it. Also the seafood spicy food, it was actually quite spicy but we enjoy spicy food, so it was great. They have so manny good dishes on the menu. Also they have happy hour 5-8 pm, great prices and if you order pitcher of beer it is actually worth it, big pitcher for 10 dlls. Nice restaurant in downtown Fort Lee.

Not to be confused with establishments of similar pronunciation in Manhattan or Queens. Yelp, Zagat, Urbanspoon all seem to recognize this place except for TA.

I took my family to this place by accident.It doesn't appear to be under the same ownership as the other famous one in Manhattan.Nevertheless I was surprised at the reasonable price and good quality of the food, as well as the clean and quiet environment and nice menu selection.I'm Korean with a pretty discerning eye/taste BTW.

Boom Boom chicken is one of my favorites. It's uniquely battered with spicies that comes out crispy when fried. It's best eaten with radish cubes and fries. Although it comes in two flavors, I prefer sweet versus spicy. The skin is so crispy I just love eating by itself.I wouldn't think twice to recommend it to family and friends!

This is why I am loving any Korean restaurants.They will give you endless free side dishes. You could end up with stuffed stomach if you don't get easy on those free appetizers.Their Sashimi is always fresh. This restaurant is always crowded any evening.Call them up before you go and make sure you don't have to wait. Otherwise at least 30min to an hour waiting list.We had so many visits and never disappointed. Try and you will like it.

It seems Korean restaurants routinely push customers to eat quickly and leave so they can seat the next group of customers. It's not surprising that this restaurant does that too. I will keep discouraging this practice until the practice abates. Other than being pushed to eat and run, the food is decent and standard. But the management needs to know that when people dine out, and pay $70 or more per person to have BBQ kalbi and others dishes, they want to sit, chat, enjoy, and be leisurely. Not hurried off the table.

Go for the soft tofu soup or dumplings.Many kinds of soup to choose from.Mine was dumpling and beef and it was delicious.Spiciness is adjusted according to your taste.The service was very good.I read a revue which talked about staff rudeness.Our experience was the opposite.

If you like dumplings or noodles, Myung Dong will hit the spot if you're in the area. The dumplings taste clean and flavorful. The various knife noodle options have fresh ingredients and seem pretty healthy. The portions are also huge. FYI, there's also free parking in the back of the complex.

Right across the George Washington Bridge over to Fort Lee, NJ is where you can get good Korean food at affordable prices. We found this restaurant serving classic soft-tofu soup, and also some bibimbop and bulgogi dishes. The inside was a good size, with a good amount of seating. They had a kids play room next to the dining room, and they had a monitor that shows the live feed of the room. So, you could leave your kids in there while you eat at the table peacefully, knowing (seeing) your kid is safe.We both ordered Soon Tofu combo, and I ordered Spicy Pork Bulgogi Combo. The tofu soup had a choice of Assorted Seafood & Beef or Vegetable tofu soup. You can change the type of tofu soup with an additional cost if you want. I changed mine to just Beef tofu soup.The soup bowl was not as big, but then again, having it with meat dish and rice would be more than enough. When ordering Soon tofu, you need to choose the level of spiciness. I went with âMildâ instead of âMedium.â The spiciness was good, not very spicy.The Beef Soon Tofu was pretty good, it had a good amount of beef in it. We cracked open the raw egg that came with the appetizer and let it cook in the hot soup. The Spicy Pork Bulgogi was excellent, the marinate was simply delicious! Pretty good portion and it was the perfect comfort food.My husband went with LA Gochujang Pork Combo. He change the tofu soup to be Seafood Soon Tofu. The broth had very distinctive seafood broth flavor to it, very different from their beef soon tofu. It was tasty and my husband enjoyed every bite of it.LA Gochujang Pork is very similar to Spicy Pork Bulgogi. The main difference is that the meat used in the LA Gochujang Pork is more fatty than the bulgogi. The flavor itself was almost the same as the bulgogi.The service was ok, they were efficient but not overly friendly. Maybe they are not too used to non-Korean customers? They were nice enough though. The food was great and I thought the price was good when you consider all the food that you are receiving. I would like to go back again to get some more of their soon tofu!
