This was my first time trying Korean food. Despite its unassuming appearance, this small restaurant blew my taste buds. Delicious food! I will totally recommend stopping here if you are nearby or out this way.

Pricy Korean, not sure it's worth it. $16 for a scallion pancake, $22 for a seafood one. $19 for a Jam Pong seafood noodle soup, $16 for 10 pieces of fried beef dumplings. What a hyper inflation!

I’ve been coming here for years and unfortunately never left a review. It has always been a 5 stars experience, and the latest stop was no different. Absolutely delicious, fresh food, perfectly cooked. Super friendly owners and staff. Worth the drive even from Boston!

This place needs more hype! The best Korean food I've had in a while, they also bring out complementary kimchi, soup, and hot tea with your meal. Highly recommend

My favorite Korean spot! Being from MA, I come back to visit ~2x a year and ALWAYS make sure to grab food each time from here. The family is just so wonderful; I miss being a regular. Make sure to try their hot tea; it's the best around. Their meats are always tender and veggies always fresh. Always a busy spot and they do a lot of take out business too. I hope these folks are in business for years to come!

I was astonished by this unassuming little restaurant by the road. Delicious tea and banchan followed by amazing entrees. The chicken, beef, and fried rice were all amazing. I will definitely be stopping here again next time I'm out this way. Definitely worth a detour.

I was excited to try it when I saw the rating. My husband's food was okayish. Mine was awful. I got the house fried rice. The rice was plain, the carrots raw, and the only flavor to it was raw carrot and salt. Worst of all, the shrimp were not properly cleaned. The water glasses were spotted and smudgy. The service was very nice, and it seems family run, I really wanted to like it, but not cleaning the shrimp is just a no-go.

We love Woo Jung!! Awesome house made kimchi and dishes that never disappoint. Try their scallion or kimchi pancakes, they seem expensive, but very large portions and excellent, especially when fresh, although we never hesitate to order for take out and reheat as desired. Thank you Woo Jung!!!

NOT a place to go for an authentic Korean-Style Chinese food. Cabbage kimchi was one of the most flavorless kimchi I’ve ever had. There are no flavors of fish sauce or subtle hint of garlic. Pepper flakes only add to the color, and there is no spiciness to kimchi. It merely tastes like salted cabbage. Radish kimchi also has no deep flavor... just that of salt. Store bought kimchi will often have a better flavor than this. There is no depth in flavor for a lot of the side dishes. Interestingly enough, lettuce kimchi is flavored with vinegar and sugar, and is rather good as a pickled vegetable, but not as a kimchi. By definition, “Gan-jjajang” requires the chef to cook the black bean paste sauce at the time of order with fresh vegetables, pork and lard. However, the one I received today had fully-cooked vegetables, meaning that the sauce was made ahead of the time. I can also taste that the sauce was made quite a long time ago, as the characteristic scent of caramelized onions were absent. Also, the pork used in the sauce was either old, not of a good quality, or undercooked. Or, all of the above. Ggan-pung-gee, or fried chicken bites in spicy sauce, was quite disappointing as well. The fried bits were not drained well, and the fragrance of the oil when biting into the bits was quite pungent; the cooking oil may be quite old. I went to this restaurant because the title of the business claims that it is a Korean style Chinese restaurant. The result was very disappointing. However, I’ve read other reviews of Korean dishes offered by this restaurant and I can’t speak for Korean dishes. However, I can confidently guarantee that today’s experience does not represent that of a proper Korean-style Chinese restaurant.
