    Not a bad place. It's pretty standard Korean cuisine. There wasn't much that I found that made it more tasty than other Korean places that I have been to. The food was ok. I ordered the pancake and it was ok. The tofu soup was also just ok. For the amount that they charge for their food, I expected it to be a little bit more tasty. It was pretty expensive for what I paid for. I'd probably try another place in this area if I ever craved Korean food.

    Here is the latest Menu as of July 28, 2023.  The menu on Yelp is way too old. Hope it can be kept up to date

    My favorite Korean food in the Bay Area! Never had a bad meal here and prices are super reasonable.

    This is a short update fro this excellent Korean restaurant.  We've been going here for many years and came even during the Pandemic for dining in.  That was before my wife was diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon Cancer and began chemotherapy 2 years ago.  Because the chemo results in her immune system being compromised, we no long risked dining in and they have no outdoor service.  That only meant one thing - take out.  We generally don't care for take out because really good food is always better when served fresh and immediately.  But, she wanted some of her favorite Korean dishes - Jhap Chae, Korean Fried Chicken Wings and Bulgogi.  So, that's what we did.

    The take out was excellent!  I would have given them 5-stars except their prices have gone up again since our last visit.  The 4 items (2X order of Jhap Chae) totaled $73 including tax but no tip.

    But of all the take out orders we've ever had from any commercial food place, this is the best packaged and organized by far!

    The food is just as good as it used to be!  But their packaging of their take out orders is excellent as well!  They line the soft cardboard cartons with aluminum foil on the food items that are hot and juicy. This keeps harmful chemicals like BPA, Phthalates, and PFAS from Leaching into the food.  These chemicals are the most researched food contact chemicals as they are both widely used and they are of health concern.

    I absolutely adore ordering from Go Goong. Their food is delicious!!! Service-wise I appreciate the little extras they provide, like securely sealing the "to go" bag, and the cute little Ban Chan tray. What do they call that in NOLA? Ohhh Lagniappe!
    They're doing it right at Go Goong.
    If I could improve one thing, I wish they'd add an option for solo diners... almost like the Japanese Bento. Whole, family style plates are too much and too expensive.... It'd be nice to get little tastes of multiple dishes.

    Cute little local Korean restaurant. I don't eat Korean food outside or AYCE from time to time to know if this is authentic or not but it was delicious regardless.

    I ordered the grilled pork belly, the bbq short ribs, and the spicy beef soup all to go, which took about less than 15 minutes. The meal came with side of rice, and the banchan side dishes.

    The pork belly and the bbq ribs were good, pretty standard if I have to say so. The soup was a bit underwhelming and needed more flavor and salt and the beef inside the soup wasn't as tender as I'd like.

    Overall I really enjoyed the pork belly and the short ribs!! It is a bit pricey at over $20 per entree but you can probably squeeze two meals out or this. I'd come again to support the little local business! I'd def get the ribs again.
