Keunjib Restaurant — Restaurant in Concord

I thought it was kinda cool that this little restaurant was connected to a bowling alley. It’s a hole in the wall I’d say. We ordered kalbi short ribs, shrimp fried rice and Philly cheesesteak sandwich and French fries. The menu has Korean food and options of bowling alley food i.e. French fires, burgers, pizza etc. I’d say it’s pretty awesome to have this as bowling alley food.

Food: it was ok nothing to really talk about. I don’t feel like there was a wow factor. the amount of food was good enough for one person. (I guess I expected more).

Service: the staff were nice and considering what we ordered it was fast. Food was ready in 15 minutes. The price was not expensive compare to other Korean restaurants...

This place is a hidden gem with amazing Korean food. All the soups and BiBimBop are served in the hot stone bowls which crisps up the rice in the BBB.l and the soups come out boiling.

The Sae Gam Tang, La Kalbi, and Japchae were the highlights of what we ordered. Everything was super delicious and came out very quick.

Plenty of Ban Chan served with the meal and they specifically said we can keep ordering more of the ban chan.

It is attached to a bowling alley which just adds to the ambiance. I heard someone order a cheeseburger so I think you can get non Korean...

Spicy chicken stew.. dak-dori-tang is addictive. The other dishes are good according to my friends but can't get myself to order something different. You can buy soju at the bar 😀

Edit: came to rsvp but was told they don’t take one. No problem. Then it’s just a heads up that 11 people will be showing up. The ensuing convo was frustrating. I did not return and wasn’t sure if group ended up going. It’s a dining out group checking out mom&pop shops to support...
