I visited Eat More Korean hoping for something somewhat authentic and was blown away by how great the food was!
The restaurant is located just inside the Nam De Mun Market. I visited with my husband and parents. When Dad walked inside, he was instantly turned off by the fish smell from the market and the hole in the wall vibe, but by the end of our evening, he was raving about the food saying he was so glad he stayed!
Three of us ordered stone bowl bibimbap. This was my comfort food dish when I lived in Seoul and I highly recommend it, especially for people new to Korean food. Served in a very hot stone bowl is a hefty portion of rice, vegetables, an egg (cooked to order, just ask), and meat. The bowl will crisp up the rice on the bottom if you let it stay there for a while, which I like to do. Stir it all up and mix in the mostly spicy but a little sweet gochujang, the red sauce in the shared tubes, and you'll have a full, authentic Korean experience. Seriously, this tastes just like the stuff in Seoul, and I was so happy to enjoy those flavors again (without having to travel to Buford Hwy or Duluth, mind you).
My husband got the galbi and we shared some of the different fish-shaped filled waffle desserts (all good and very sweet - my favorite is the cream cheese one). Korean meals are traditionally served with side dishes ("banchan" in Korean), and in authentic restaurants like this one, these side dishes are free and included with your food. Kimchi should always be included, but the other side dishes vary, sometimes from person to person. We had japchae (sweet potato noodle with veggies) and a cabbage salad with a light soup and I can't remember what else.
The food is served from the window off the kitchen. Keep an eye out for your order and enjoy!
Eat More Korean exceeded my expectations and delivers delicious Korean food in a cheaper environment. The market is cold so bring a sweater, and if you get the bibimbap, bring your appetite because hte...
Read moreThis is the worst, rude staffs, spoiled food. Couple incidents happend that made ne write this review.
1st of all, let me say, I was quite of their regular customer, I was fond when they open, and tried there food, it tast nice ans good portion, I have to admit and ai been bragging them with my family and tell then to come and try. But one day, I came with my family, my sister order the Tofu soup, the soupon come out with no egg inside so we asked them in case they forgot to put it in. Couple kitchen staffs (male an female) came out, using spoon to stir the soup for like 5 mins to find the eggs and then, finally when they couldn't see it, they believe we tell the truth, took back the soup (that the tofu already broken into small pieces) put an egg in and give it back to us. My sister said she will never it there again, but I still think their food is good, no harm done, maybe it's just the "Korean way of customer service, so I still eat there frequently and even though I always got treat like I'm begging for food from them.
Just today 5/16/17, I came in buy some fish waffles, the crust was sour - both me and my husband taste it, I told to the staffs, the skinny, long hair Korean lady said it cannot be, then snatched the waffle from my hand (with her bare, no gloved hands), ate them and say it isn't sour, then she tun to the kitchen, get the RAW batter from the refrigerator out, tell me to taste it (of course it not spoiled vs the one they sit in the counter whole day) told other customers that I just making thing up.
I never ever ever ever go there any more. Stay...
Read moreThis Was Our first time eating at this restaurant and our experience was TRASH!! First off Customer service was HORRIBLE! We arrived and walked in to no one greeting us. We waited because we saw they were busy. The young girl at the Front Did Apologize When She Came Out. We Dined In To Eat. My issue was That we ordered Over $50 Worth Of Food And They Got Our Order Wrong. Tried To Blame It On Us The Customers. Then The Dish That They Got Wrong They Took Back And Threw It Away, So Wasteful With Food, The Dish We Ordered Was Bland Because They Rushes To Cook It, If You Wanted Water You Have To Go To Their Little Water Cooler With A Preschool Sized Cup And Serve yourself so might as well bring your own drink. The Young lady at the front haggled us For $3 While We Were sitting down and eating the other food we ordered and it was like they weren't gonna make our correct dish until we gave them the $3 difference on the dishes. Again we paid over $50 for our order so why would we stiff you on $3. Chile We Were trying to eat and enjoy our food. So After All Of The Poor Customer Service, We Will NOT Be Back, and it's a shame because the Seafood Ramen was Great And Spicy Calamari was Great. But The Bland Dishes We Received Were The Short Rib Stew And The Kimchi. The Kimchi...
