Jikji Cafe - Broad Channel

Not sure if my mood was down or the food. It was decent, without real complaint, but did not wow me either.

I’m sad to say, but this was the worst bulgogi beef I’ve tasted. It had a sort-of bland gravy (not the savory sauce that comes from meat drippings and the marinade or seasonings). They overcooked rice and they charge $18 for the entree (meat, rice carrots). It tasted like I had a bad recipe and tried to make this at home.

Worst customer service I’ve ever had. Overpriced food as well.

I don’t know what the other reviewers are whining about. I love the lovely couple that run this place. The auntie with the hat is sweet and jokes with all of her customers. The sundubu stew was homey and warming, and scratched my itch for Korean food. No, you’re not going to get a Michelin star dining experience, but you are at an airport in New York City, and this is pretty good all things considered. And way better than McDonalds.

TURN AROHND AND GO MCDONALD'S!! I dont understand why this wench yelled at me like a barking dog. Food was also terrible. I was born in S.Korea and have lived there for 20 years. And Sundubu I had was the worst ever in my life. Soup was not enough to eat with rice, there were carrots and broccolis inside it. Carrots and broccolis in Sundubu! I've never had this messed up food like this. Also, the only cooking tool was microwave. This is a scam and an insult.
