Odagada — Restaurant in Dublin

(Leave a reply below if you have a different opinion. I'll read and see if it was just a one-time mistake.) Please don't eat Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki (spicy fat rice noodle) here. Just get their fried chicken, which is actually pretty good, or something else, but please no Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki. Not worth the money in terms of flavor, texture, readiness, etc. If you feel like Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki, just hold it and buy a frozen Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki pack from a Korean supermarket, and make one yourself at home. These days, Trader Joe's also sells Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki, which isn't great, but still much better than theirs. I'm from Korea and have liked and tasted Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki for 30+ years, so trust me. I'm not a regular here, but have been here for fried chicken several times. When I tried their Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki for the first time together with a few other dishes, we (four of us) couldn't finish even a quarter of the dish. I felt obliged to give my honest feedback to the owner, so gave him some, and also had him taste it, but when he came back from the kitchen, he surprised me by saying that he and his cook tasted it, and it's maybe overcooked more than usual, but they couldn't find any serious flavor issue. He also added that their Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki is one of their popular dishes and gets positive feedback from others, which made me sad in a way because probably it came from those who have seen Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki in a Korean drama or movie and wanted to give it a shot. So maybe it's okay if you're not a Korean or have no experience with Tteokbokki/Ddeokbokki and just want to try it. On that day, I regret I didn't ask for a refund, but when he said it was almost as good as usual and seemed to imply it's just me being picky or having a strange tastebud, I was quite frustrated and didn't feel like talking more about it with him. Because of this experience, I wouldn't go back even if I feel like their fried chicken. I would just go...

This place is by far the best place to get local Korean comfort food in the East Bay. They have everything from your KimBap (what many confuse as sushi, which are small seaweed rolls that have rice, vegetables, and favorite meat of choice), to the best pork cutlet katsu, and delectable fried chicken.

I'm somewhat selfishly happy that I can freely go in and not worry about 30-45min wait times, since this place honestly has the best fried chicken in the East Bay and SF area.

The marinated (either sweet or spicy) drumlets or wings are consistently what I always get. They also offer the flavor in a nice garlic-soy sauce.

Buffalo Wild Wings may have an assortment of different flavors, but they also always consistently overcook their chicken which leaves it dry and tough.

Not here... if any of know how to properly cook fried chicken- the double fried technique is key to allow the meat to rest... and also allowing the skin to be nice and crispy. After eating the chicken here, the skin is light and crispy flavored with a very nice sweet tangy sauce known only to the secret society of Korean grandmoms- similar to the Jejudo seafood divers (look it up).

Seriously though, the chicken here really is that good. Wash everything down with a nice pitcher of beer or flavored soju. Bring your friends and you'll have an awesome time with food and drinks.

I hesitate writing this because I don't want my favorite eating/drinking place to get inundated with people... The friendly and attentive service here will also make this place one of your top places to stop and eat while in the Dublin, San Ramon, Livermore and...

Have been meaning to try this place for some time now finally got the chance to try it. Went on a weekday so it was empty so we got seated right away. There was only one lady who was serving and taking orders, etc..

Popcorn chicken - this was cooked to perfection, juicy and tender inside and crispy outside. Really enjoyed it.

Pork Bulgogi - it was spicy and delicious the portion size was also very decent, loved it

Chicken Katsu - total disappointment. The chicken was not cooked nicely the sauce which they gave on the side for Katsu chicken was disgusting. Nowhere near how a katsu chicken is done. So this dish was a total waste of money for us.

LA short ribs - another disappointing dish. The meat was so chewy and it had more bones in it than meat. It was just very bland and did not enjoy it all.

Chamisul Fresh -Soju, just your usual nothing special

I loved the dishes which they used to serve the food, which made the food look appetizing.

There was no need to add cold pasta as a side dish along with the traditional main courses.

Overall, it was OK nothing special neither did I find it very authentic. It was more westernized to cater to the taste buds of the people here. They should just stick to the authentic taste, which they didn’t...
