I've had Korean tofu stew ("순두부") in many locations in Korea, LA/OC and in the Bay Area... and i really think this place's tofu stew is the best.
Very good and tasty tofu soup, and excellent service! The kimchi is a little bit sweet though.
Very good taste Korean tofu hot pot. The service is fast and good too.
Tofu house is one a gem shining by jangsu jang. True to it’s name, the tofu soup is good. Complementary japchae as a side dish. The kimchi is good mix of sour and spicy. tteokbokki leaves more to be desired though.
When you have lunch here, they serve you the accompanying plates of.. oodles, kimchee, marinated fish, and tofu among a few other things. All these dishes (I forget the formal name of them) are quite good and I could just eat them as my meal if I had n further plates. I really liked the clear-ish noodles that was in that set. I had the Beef w/Tofu Hotpot Lunch which came with Rice but this was a mix-up as my companion had order the beef and I the chicken made extra spicy. Instead the beef cam extra spicy and we switched since I like the heat and he may not have been able to handle. The rice comes in a large pot and as we were three, the server came by and portioned the communal serving into our three bowls. When the main order was server it came in boiling hot and bubbling like a clay pot or hot plate to which I added my raw egg. To my surprise, the heat was not enough to fully cook my raw egg as it cooked no further than about halfway and remained mostly runny. That was not an issue, it just... was. The flavor of the beef w/tofu was a bit disappointing as I was hoping for a stronger flavor. Not sure what I would be getting but expected something a bit more stewy vs. the soupy consistency, but again, that is not a criticism, just an observation. It was neither salty or sweet and was more on the bland side. Portion was adequate but it did not strike me as very spicy. I would return to try other dishes as I believe this is a worthwhile establishment for a tofu house to keep trying.
