Gam Ja Chon — Restaurant in California

First time came in was great, everything was perfect. However, the second time I came in, the waitress were very inpatient and careless. What makes such difference? After discussing with my husband who’s been visiting here for more than 6 years about our experiences and observations, we came to a conclusion: Korean men (or appear like a Korean descent) deserved highest level of service; Non-Korean men deserved 2nd level of service. Non-Korean and non-men(or women in general) deserved the worst service. So I don’t suggest girls to come in a group because you won’t feel welcomed. I don’t blame the waitress cuz it might be a culture issue not their personal fault. I just felt uncomfortable because we are paying the same amount of money but not receiving same quality of service. The food itself was great.

Seriously a great place to go if you enjoy gam ja tang ! Their soup never disappoints and always has a really homey and traditional flavor.

Remember to get the fried rice at the end of the meal ! They use the thickened leftover soup to make some delicious kimchi fried rice. TBH this is always my favorite part of the...

What a terrible experience!

Came here for lunch one day and the restaurant was empty. That's already a bad sign. We got the menu and the prices were twice as high as some of the other Korean restaurants in the area. A kalbi dish cost a whopping $24 and there was only 5 small pieces. Wth? And the cut of meat was super fatty and chewy, very low quality.

We ordered several dishes to share and everything was very mediocre if not down right terrible. Considering we paid an arm and a leg, that was totally unacceptable!! The service was not attentive and our waitress had an attitude problem, was rude and didn't even smile.

Bathrooms are gross. Do NOT come here unless you want bad quality food and pay an arm and...
