    Hands-down the best AUTHENTIC Korean food in all of bay area. A little bit pricier than what you can find in LA but it's all good since they have superb service+food!!

    This place is probably the best Korean bbq spot in Nor Cal. Living in LA we have the best Korean bbq spots. Jang Su Jang is legit

    good pricing, they cook their bulgogi in a sort of broth so it wont get dry and stick to the grill like most do! complimentary jjigae came along with our order

    The dumplings here are only alright. They're not the best Korean dumplings but will fill you up. The broth-soup is yummy though and they give you yokault as dessert so yay!!

    There is a minimum order to use the tabletop grill. You can ask to grill it on your own if you want. Pricy but high-quality.

    Stay away from the dotolee bibimguksoo -- it's fairly boring. Good ban chan though and the seafood pancake is every bit as good as people say it is.

    I guess the best Korean restaurant in Silicon valley, and it is so clean as to invite foreigners. I tried tofu, Yookgyejang, and meat and like all of them.

    One if the more modern, fancy kbbq places in the area. The food is good, but quite pricey. I can't decide if it's tastier than Ilbunjee #1 though.

    When talking about KBBQ in the Bay Area, the strip mall-located Jang Su Jang is oft-cited as the best — it's even a Michelin-recommended restaurant. And yes, it's definitely good. Read more

    $13.99 for bulgogi, side dishes, & rice. The meat was a bit dry. There were 6 mediocre side dishes. In other words, the place is a 1 star for me. If the service was good, I'd be a happier; it wasn't.

    Wanted to like this place but the dol sot bibimbap was disappointingly uncrispy and low on beef. Maybe next time will be better.

    The seafood pancake is not worth it. Tastes bland and is full of chives and chewy overcooked seafood. 14.99 also... We I had half and left the rest for the house. Not even worth leftovers
