Sogongdong Tofu Town — Restaurant in San Jose

It's hard to find excellent Korean food in the South Bay, so when I come across a good restaurant I always have to give praise! Sogongdong Tofu Town piles on the flavor and I never feel like I’m eating bland, Americanized Korean food. If this were LA, I might bump it down a star because the food scene there is so competitive. But many restaurants here can’t even deliver the basic flavors right, so I’m thrilled to discover this place conveniently tucked in an Hmart. The soondubu jjigae (”tofu soup”) here is stellar and as good as any that you’ll find ...

I liked the open kitchen i could see chefs cooking. It looks very clean, and chefs were using gloves. My favorite was hot stone bibimbap. Good portion. My new favorite spot. Weekends are busy, so I usually go during weekdays. My friends tried tofu soup and tofu noodle soup. It's great that you could choose the spicy level. Ask for side of broth...

Service was great, and casual in this open air grocery restaurant.

The Beef Bulgogi dish was decent, and the portions are large. The pickled kimchi and radish on the side was good as well.

The quality of beef could be better though, priced at almost $30 for the Bulgogi entree, everything else was fine.

I might give this place...
