" I came to JJamPPong with friends, and the food was fantastic. The marinated crab had the right balance of sweet and spicy, and it was so tender. The jjamppong brought rich flavors to the table with its hearty broth. Service was commendable as well, they checked on us frequently. The setup was relaxed, and it felt like we were at a family-owned restaurant, which made the experience homely. Definitely worth trying! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to JJamPPong last weekend, and it was a solid dining experience! The tampering of spice in the raw crab was fine, but the dish overall was standing out among the rest we had. The jjamppong was hearty, with generous seafood servings that hit the right flavor notes. Service was long at times, likely due to the crowd, but they were always polite. I'll definitely consider this option whenever I'm in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited this charming little spot called JJamPPong last weekend! We ordered a variety of dishes, and every single one was fantastic. Their raw marinated crab is a must-try, it is probably the best in town, in my opinion. The broth in the jjamppong was perfectly balanced and featured generous seafood portions. Portions were sizeable, and the staff was incredibly polite. This feels like a genuine dining experience without the pretense. I can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

The spicy marinated crab was something I had never tasted better elsewhere. I found the service to be top-notch; very welcoming and attentive. The atmosphere was casual yet lively with families enjoying their meals. The portion sizes surprised me, as they were quite generous. Truly an experience to return for! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a self-proclaimed foodie, I wanted to explore some authentic Korean cuisine and decided on JJamPPong. The environment was casual and friendly, which I appreciated. I particularly enjoyed their spicy raw crab, but it was quite spicy for me. The portion sizes were quite generous; we ended up with leftovers. The service was brisk and friendly, and I loved being served tea as part of the experience. If you’re craving Korean food with a bit of a twist, this is definitely the place to try!

" What a wonderful experience! JJamPPong has something for everyone! I tried the spicy raw crab and was thrilled with the taste; it had the perfect zing and sweetness. The jjamppong was rich and spicy without overpowering the palate. Friendly service staff who made sure we were well taken care of. The only downside was the limited seating, but totally worth waiting for a table! I'll be visiting again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you are looking for authentic Korean-Chinese cuisine, JJamPPong is the place to be! The spicy raw crab is phenomenal - very fresh and bursting with flavor, but do be careful, it can shock the taste buds if you're not used to heat! I also had the seafood jjamppong - very warming and good. Service was prompt and friendly, but expect a wait during busy times. The seating is cozy, and it adds to the atmosphere. Can't wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)
