So Gong Dong Tofu House

This place is great! Totally recommend. Overall, the food is amazing. We were in a party of 6 people, and ordered a few tofu soups; crab, kimchi, and udon. They were all delicious! We also got the galbi, which one person in our group quotes, “ better than the ones in Korea! “ All the dishes are pretty well seasoned, but the salt on the e edamame was not that even. Service was great, and all the staff were really nice and helpful. Bathrooms were a little messy and stinky, but this restaurant offered both outside and indoor seating options. This was our second time here, and we are really pleased.

My toddler and I came 30 mins before closing time and they still served us. They even served people who came later than us! They just asked us to pay at closing time but we can stay longer to finish our meal. Everything was yummy. I love going to a Korean restaurant and they serve me purple rice. My daughter ate a lot. Will come back here if I ever visit Menlo Park again.

Great tofu broth with a variety of protein choices. Ban chan is good, if we weren't late to lunch, we would have been able to request more. Nice service even though they were closing and had us eat outside while they cleaned inside. The gyoza had a nice crisp.

Great vegetarian-friendly spot with a few quirks! I stopped by here on a Wednesday night around 6:45 PM and was pleasantly surprised by how easy parking was. If you’re looking for a solid Korean meal with generous portions, this is a great choice. The Food: As a vegetarian, I really appreciated how accommodating they were. I ordered: • Japchae: Requested it with no mushrooms, and they executed it perfectly. • Tofu Dumpling Soup: Very flavorful and satisfying. • Banchan: They serve a huge variety of complimentary side dishes, which is always the mark of a great Korean restaurant! The portion sizes are big, so you definitely get your money's worth. Everything tasted "good very great"—very fresh and authentic. The Service & Atmosphere: The only downside was the service pacing. Even though the restaurant wasn't full and there were plenty of free tables, the staff brought the check while we were still eating. It felt a bit rushed, which was unnecessary given the empty seating. Also it’s a bit loud talking everywhere around. Overall: Delicious food and easy logistics, just be prepared for a slightly hurried exit!
