Huge Portion, Delicious Seafood Noodles!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I ordered a dish after seeing someone share it online, and I was amazed by the HUGE Portion. It's advertised as serving 1-2 people, and it certainly lives up to that. The dish was delicious, with plenty of assorted seafood and thinly sliced pork. It wasn't as spicy as it looked, and the noodles texture was PERFECT. The proprietor was attentive, offering a takeout container immediately, but I was determined to finish most of it myself. Lol roll me out of here!

Consistent Jjamppong and Jjajangmyun
My experience at this restaurant was defined by its consistent quality for jjamppong and jjajangmyun. The service is counter-style, and the ladies working there are very hardworking. However, finding a seat can be challenging during dinner time.

Great Food, Service Issue
I very like here the food, but be careful‼️ When you order takeout and go to pick it up, the waiter will ask for your ID. If you don't show her your ID, you won't be able to get your meal. If it is to facilitate your search for customer orders, you should update your order placement website instead of asking customers for their IDs. This is an illegal act.

Quick & Chewy Jjajeongmyeon Experience
Came here after shopping at Hmart and it was so convenient to come here! The food came out super quickly, with no more than a 5-minute wait. The large jjajeongmyeon was perfect for 2 people to share, and it even came with some appetizers and banchan, making it a perfect amount of food. The noodles were so chewy and had a perfect texture, with a really good savory flavor. We did have to wait for a table and got lucky with one, as it's a pretty crowded space. It's a very casual hole-in-the-wall, so you can't stay for a long time. Overall, this was a good experience, and how efficient it was added to the appeal.

Disappointing Noodles at This Location
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. While I've enjoyed other Paik's locations, this particular one fell short. The noodles tasted worse than expected, and the sauce was watery. The food quality received a low score of 2, and the service also scored a 2. The atmosphere was rated a 3.

Service Okay, Food Disappointing
The service at this food court restaurant was acceptable, but honestly, the food was not good. Given that there are many other Korean-Chinese restaurants in San Francisco, I would recommend going to those instead.

Quick Lunch at H-Mart: Paik's & Left Wing
I had a quick stop at H-Mart for lunch. I tried the jajangmyeon at Paik's and the soy garlic chicken & fries at Left Wing. The jajangmyeon was good, and the small serving size (available in small and large) was perfect for one person. It came with a side of radish that nicely complemented the taste of the jajang. Paik's seems to specialize in noodles, given their very limited menu; the closest meat option available was tangsuyuk, unlike other Korean restaurants that might offer fried chicken. Overall, it was a satisfactory quick meal.

Excellent Jajang and Shrimp!
My experience at the restaurant was great overall. The jajang (with egg rice) was excellent. I also enjoyed the fried shrimp with mayo, although it was a bit sweet for my preference, it was still good.

Awesome Food Court, Solid Jjangmyeon & Tangsuyuk
The food court in general is awesome! Back to the food, the Jjangmyeon and tangsuyuk are solid.

Delicious Food, Fast Service, Great Parking
My experience at the restaurant was great! The service was fast, and the food was absolutely delicious. I particularly enjoyed the Jjamppong and Jjajangmyeon 😋. They offer a varied menu, and the ample parking was a definite plus.
