" What a gem in the city! Finally found a place that serves authentic Korean Chinese dishes like my mom used to make. The tangsuyuk was fantastic, not too sweet, which is often hard to find. Portions were very generous, and the service was friendly and quick. I think I found my new favorite spot in Philly! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely family dinner here the other night. The kids loved the fried dumplings while I enjoyed the spicy jjampong. It's great to finally have a place where I can order something for everyone. I appreciated the warm service and would consider returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Yong Hwa Roo with a group of friends, and we had a great time! Each dish we ordered was bursting with flavor. The jjampong was packed with seafood, and my favorite had to be the garlic chicken – so delicious! The vibe was cozy, and while it was busy, the service was still attentive. Just remember to come hungry because the portions are massive! " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed the food but had a bit of a wait that night, which was unexpected. The restaurant was busy, and the servers were stretched thin. Still, the freshness of the ingredients made up for it. I had the jja jang myun which was decent but nothing spectacular. I might try again but during a quieter time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful lunch here. The lunch specials are a great way to try multiple dishes without breaking the bank. The tangsuyuk was wonderfully crispy, and the portions were more than generous for the price. Definitely will be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" While I enjoyed the food, I found that the prices were slightly higher than other similar restaurants. The dishes were well-executed, but for the amount of food, I expected a little more. Overall, it was still a nice experience and I might consider going back. " (*Curated Review*)
