Korean Recipes - Bldg Fort Wainwright

I'm from So Cal so i eat a lot of Korean food at LA Korea town and little Seoul in OC so I know my Korean food. This place is legit! It's like having a Korean grandma cook for u. It's not fancy but it's good hearty food made with soul and flavor. We ordered like 7 dishes. Everything was very tasty and well done. After a week of cruise food the grandparents in my group was loving having rice and great Asian flavors again. Trust me it's good Korean food esp in Alaska. Highly recommend.

Worst experience ever! No service, no side dish, not even communication. Way too expensive for not a korean recipe!!!!! How they can call it’s korean recipe! You better cook ar your home than them for sure!

I stayed at bridgewater hotel near this restaurant. when i came here, the temperature is just about -30 celcius. so its freezing cold. me and my wife want to give it a try because korean food is mostly hot soup, which is perfect for this freezing cold weather. i ordered dumpling soup and its really really delicious. i love this simple restaurant..

Overall, AVOID this place. I’ll start with what I like about this place. Bulgogi is tasty and authentic. That’s why I rate 2 stars but I cannot give more stars than this. We ordered the pot clay soup made with seafood and tofu(forgot the name). The taste is fine(well the soup paste is standard from grocery store just like instant noodle soup, you cannot go too wrong),but the seafood quality is terrible. There was only 3 clams (all not fresh, even one stinky) and 1 frozen shrimp in it, and it is $23. Way overpriced for the quality and quantity. Avoid this dish and see my attached picture.For what’s worthy, I am a traveler to Fairbanks for sightseeing, so despite I was terribly disappointed with the seafood quality, I thought the grocery must be pricy too in Fairbanks especially in winter, perhaps that’s the reason why the owner had to use bad ingredients to control the cost. But when I visited the local supermarket, I found out (surprisingly)the grocery is fresh and reasonable price, so clearly this shop owner lady cheaps out the ingredients for milking more profit, which makes me really upset. I understand the restaurant business may get struck so badly during covid and it needs to gain profit immediately, but this is NOT acceptable. I usually don’t give this harsh comments because I love and enjoy cooking, and have a reasonable understanding of different people have different mentality and difficulties in life. But this is NOT how to run a restaurant business, so I feel I have to do this to alert travelers, AVOID THIS PLACE.I also cannot believe the service we had. Okay, I am Asian foodie and know what a good Korean meal should be. I was not expecting this to a Chicago/NYC level Korean food experience, but I’ve never been to a Korean place that doesn’t serve complimentary side dishes before hot dishes. There was no barley tea or even hot water or water. The only water I got was a 2 dollar bottle water that I had to pick up myself from the registry.I also don’t understand why people commented the owner lady was friendly. Maybe to others but this was not our experience. Despite I was already disappointed, I still tipped 15% out of a common sense. But the whole time during dining and check out, there was never a smile from the owner lady. There was no service other than bringing our food out once.I can keep going but I think I’ve made my point. I could’ve rated 1 star but I decided to go with 2, everyone is not easy so one more star for keeping it running, but unfortunately I cannot rate higher than 2 stars.

I ate two bowls of Yukgaejang, which was so delicious.Thank you for the delicious taste of hometown!
