Yummy Tofu and BBQ: Reviews & Ratings

Just go! Excellent, Cosy, Korean restaurant - with all your favorites. They serve six side dishes, of which five can be eaten by vegetarians. The seafood pancake can be made vegetarian, and was great. The mushroom tofu stew, and pork BBQ were both yummy. You might be sitting very close to other tables, but it is understandable for a family restaurant. The service is attentive and prompt.

Absolutely the best Korean food in the area: delicious side dishes, fulfilling portions of food, and extremely flavorful. They also have the BEST seafood pancake I’ve ever had. Amazing restaurant overall, highly recommend (from an Asian person)!!!

Mom and Pop place w the best Pajun in the world! Hands down. No fluff, no extra flour, lots of fillings like veges or seafood, and just plain crispy and light and none of that chewy dough most places sell that I will never eat. Always so happy here w home made feel of food. Thank you!

We got takeout. Haemul Pajeon, Soondubu, dolsotbap, and dwangjangjige. The food is excellent, especially the pajeon. The restaurant is small so get there early. Not really suitable for large groups.

I have been a big fan of Yummy Tofu for years, and looks like it’s now under new management. Food is slightly different than before, the side dishes used to be more traditional which is personal preference. As shown in this photo, the food was very fresh and the service was excellent. The staffs were very polite and handled food with care. Greatly appreciated it.
