The Chaum

Christine Yang 3 months ago

Soft tofu stew wasn't bad for the price, though I would have preferred fewer, bigger, and better quality seafood than the quantity/quality they had. Seafood in it was very small and some shellfish had sand in them. I think it's a good restaurant to try Korean food if you've never had it. The stew didn't come out boiling hot, kimchi wasn't spicy, and they offer American soda.

Excellent Korean food options. They require a bit of self-service, so you might ot be familiar or comfortable doing that--bit it is simple and easy to do; don't let that stop you from trying them out. Beef was tasty and the spicy pork was very good. Kimchi options were also very tasty and not overwhelming in their fermentation. This is a nice sit down experience where they don't require you to tip (it wasn't even an option when I paid with my card). Give them a try!

Decided to try out The Chaum for lunch. For my entree I went with the bulgogi combo which comes with beef bulgogi, steamed rice, glass noodles, vegetable side dishes, and soup. I also ordered the Korean chicken gangjeong on the side. The combo meal itself was solid. Main problem was the bulgogi was a little over cooked, and ended up more dry and jerky-like rather than tender and juicy which lessened the flavors you’d expect from the marinade and takes away from the overall meal. The soup I received was also served to me cold. Side dishes and the glass noodles however were prepared well. The Korean chicken gangjeong was very good and the highlight of the visit. It comes as lightly battered chicken bites and rice cakes covered with a very delicious soy garlic butter sauce. Pricing is pretty similar to other Korean places nearby. You order from a digital kiosk like a fast food establishment so employee interaction is kept at a minimum which can make it hard to get help or proper customer service. Overall, despite a couple misses, still had a decent visit. Maybe they had an off day, or this is a side effect of prioritizing a quick service format. Would definitely try the chicken appeti

The food was very authentic and delicious! The atmosphere of the restaurant was very welcome and service was great too. I would recommend anyone who want to try Korean food.

Heard there was a new Korean place that served spicy chicken. So, of course, I had to come here. First time we came the chicken was all sold out and I cried in the parking lot. This time they made extra so we had some. I ordered the spicy chicken and the wife ordered the mild. Extremely delicious! Reminded me of the time when I lived in Korea. Definitely coming back.
