    Cute Korean spot in Astoria. The decor is great, though the place itself is a little small. I've been here a few times, and honestly, the food doesn't reach 5 stars; it's just average (especially compare to korean spots in Flushing or NJ) - not bad, not great. The Budae jjigae isn't as thick as it's supposed to be. They usually refill banchans unless you come an hour before closing. The service is 4/5. Would recommend if you live in Astoria and crave korean food!

    I've frequented this charming Korean restaurant numerous times, and each visit reaffirms why it's become my go-to spot for Korean cuisine in town. The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between modern chic and traditional warmth with flower decor all over the place. The menu boasts a variety of classic Korean dishes, from sizzling bibimbap to savory bulgogi. Every dish is prepared with care, showcasing authentic flavors that transport you straight to Seoul. The banchan (side dishes) are a delightful starter, offering a range of flavors and textures that complement the main courses beautifully. Service is consistently friendly and efficient, adding to the overall dining experience. Whether you're a Korean food enthusiast or a newcomer to the cuisine, this restaurant offers a welcoming environment and delicious food that will keep you coming back for more. Overall, this place earns top marks for its delicious food, inviting atmosphere, and attentive service. It's a gem in the local dining scene and definitely worth a visit!

    For the first few seconds I've entered this place, I was already feeling the intensive care, little touches of detail, friendly warmth and good shocks of their food selections. Mokja can be such a great place for many things: first dates, a friends gathering, gossip through cocktails, and for a full meal or simple bites tapas style. I hadn't seen my old schoolmate for so long and she is a longtime local in Astoria. We both coincidentally wanted Korean food but in a non-frills and chill vibes environment. The decorations were exceedingly cute and loved the Dora dollhouse displays, the lights and cute crafted flowers on every table. Even our Korean cocktails were vibrant in color, taste and the cute blinking bulbs to give it a fun touch. Food wise: we had the pork steamed buns in folded form - fluffy, delicious and syrupy sweet with the pork bits. The soy garlic chicken wings were fried and sauced up nicely even with the steam still coming out from the chicken, perfect! And our carbs selection was none other than japchae - clear buckwheat noodles - can never go wrong and this was cooked nicely. I also want to give credit to the restaurant for adding a variety of Asian items on the menu. Was pleasantly surprised there was an option for banh mi, Thai noodles, and Japanese dishes like bentos and ramen. Astoria is a great location with a variety of cuisines and this place gives options to an assortment of Asian dishes. My next venture here will be the bibimbap or bulgogi burger as this did catch my eye. I'll make sure to come back with an empty stomach ready for those burgers.

    We come here often because it's near our apartment. Every time, I have a pleasant experience because of the friendly staff and delicious food. I have tried many things on the menu (jjajangmyun, tofu soup, spicy pork, etc.) And every dish was good. I would recommend popping in if you're in Astoria and crave korean food!
