Tried all Bay Area locations!
I was in the city and made sure I tried this location too. Overall, the food was just as good, and I'm finally able to say I have tried all their restaurants in the greater Bay Area. The service and atmosphere were also excellent, both receiving a perfect score.

Amazing Food and Great Experience!
I had an amazing set of food that made me feel happier than before. The staff and service were excellent, and the greatly varied pickle like siders were a highlight. I strongly suggest it! Thank you so very much for this great experience of taste and health!

Disappointing Decline in Quality
My recent experience at this restaurant has been disappointing. The portions have become super small, and the meat quality is poor. More recently, the food has not been served hot. It's sad because we used to love coming here for yummy comfort food. For a $30 bibimbap, I left feeling disappointed. On a positive note, the service is awesome.

My Favorite Dish in the Bay!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic, especially with the 반반 냉면. It's my current favorite dish in the bay. From its depth of flavor to its presentation…Perfection 😘. The food was rated a 5, and the atmosphere a 3.

Delicious Kalbijjim and Generous Portions
On our first visit, we knew we had to try the Kalbijjim (갈비찜). The wait was reasonable, no more than 30 minutes for a large, sharable portion. It was so much food that we couldn't finish it all in one sitting – a truly generous portion. Everything, from the beef and rice to the sides, was absolutely delicious. While I'm not an expert on Korean cuisine pricing, this regular-sized Kalbijjim was $82, and apparently, there's an even larger size available. The food court was lively and enjoyable, with a noise level that was a bit loud but still allowed for conversation without yelling.

Consistent Daeho Experience Across Locations
It feels like I’ve written reviews for every Daeho location! I’ve been to them all! I sometimes order takeout from the H-Mart location because it’s close to my house. I don’t know how they manage it, but Daeho’s food tastes consistent across all their locations! There’s no specific branch that’s better or worse—they’re truly all the same! This really shows the importance of good management! Today, our menu consisted of Spicy Short Rib Soup and Beef Tripe Soup!

Delicious Kalbi Jim & Beef Soup!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I absolutely loved the Kalbi Jim & Beef Soup, which was 😍. The glass noodles were incredibly delicious and flavorful. The beef was served with a special sauce that added a delightful spicy kick! 🥵🤤 To top it off, the order included complimentary side dishes, which was a pleasant surprise!

Worth the splurge for bomb food!
It was worth it if you have the money to burn lol. We got lucky and got in before the line started. The foods were bomb! Not one dish disappoints. I'd save up money to go back here lol.

Disappointing Food Quality
My experience with this restaurant was unfortunately disappointing due to the food quality. I ordered the extra meat special via DoorDash, and it was filled with hard tendon. While I didn't interact with the service directly, the food itself was a letdown.
