"I came here for dinner with a group of friends and we loved it! The interior of the restaurant is cozy, and I would recommend a reservation if you are going on a weekend. Service here is really quick, attentive, and polite. My friends and I ordered their raw marinated crab and shrimp, their seafood pancake, their bulgogi hotpot, and their bossam. Everything was delicious. The raw foods were high-quality, well-marinated, and was paired with roe rice. The seafood pancake was crispy and generous with their seafood portions. Their bulgogi hotpot was comforting, and perfect for the cold weather. And, their bossam was clean, light, and amazing in a wrap. Great spot for some cozy vibes and warm Korean food!"

"cozy delish Korean food with reasonably price tag. The bulgogi is on the sweeter side but the potato glass noodle is delicious This is closer to Penn station so further away from heart of Ktown. Recommend a reservation as it can get quite busy. The seating feels a bit crowded and tables are too close to each other"

"This place was a bit disappointing. While there were a couple of notable dishes including the seafood pancake, stir fried octopus, and icy persimmon, we were not impressed by their galbijjim, naengmyun, and signature beef bulgogi. Traditional galbijjim uses short rib chunks that are braised to allow the flavor to develop and meat to be tenderized over time. Samwoojung's uses LA galbi cut, which is much too thin to be braised, leading the meat to be overcooked and tough. In addition, their naengmyun was not good- bland, the noodles were not al dente, and not cold enough either. The bulgogi was overcooked as well. The portion sizes are also TINY for the high price point. For example, the seafood pancake is the size of a personal size pan pizza! The atmosphere here was also deafening. I could not even hear my dining companion, who was sitting only a foot away. We won't be back. At this price point, there are many better options in Ktown."

"very solid food, flavors that hit right. good banchan, including, very generously, a piece of fish! :) staff were v nice. offered to give me rice tea as a to-go customer when I only asked for water lots of indoor space and stoves at tables to keep food warm. good for groups as many orders are meant to be shared. can get very busy during rush hours so rez recommended"

"I gorged myself on raw marinated crab here- probably a little too much because it was so good! My other favorites were the seafood pancake, sweet corn dessert, and white grape soju. Great place to go if you're booking for a large party! We were 25."
