DuBu - Elkins Park, Pennsylvania

이 곳은 필라델피아에서 가장 한국음식을 잘 하는 음식점입니다. H mart 옆에 있어서 한국분들이라면 장도 보고, 한끼 맛있게 해결하고 돌아가기에 딱 좋은 곳입니다. 이 날은 해물파전, LA 갈비, 순두부, 그리고 양념게장을 먹었는데 전부 다 정말 맛있었습니다. 기본 반찬들도 한국식으로 충실하게 잘 나오고, 직원분들도 매우 친절합니다. 사진에는 없지만 제가 개인적으로 가장 좋아하는 메뉴는 '갈비찜'입니다. 가격도 매우 합리적이며 식당 지하에는 한국식 노래방도 역시 합리적인 가격에 운영하고 있어서 식후에 놀러 가기에도 좋습니다. 다운타운에 사는 분들에게도 이곳은 우버비가 아깝지 않을 한식 레스토랑이라고 자신합니다.

We had a delicious weekend lunch at DuBu not too long ago. The restaurant was busy, but the servers were friendly and attentive. We ordered several dishes to try between two people — the gejang, sagol dumpling soup, spicy pork bibimbap, and bibim nengmyun. Everything tasted fantastic and we ended up with delicious leftovers the next day. Our waiter even brought us a bag of ice for the gejang to ensure that it stayed fresh on the drive home, which I thought was very considerate. This place is solid!

My experience at DuBu Korean Food on a Saturday night was fantastic! Despite arriving at 6:30pm and waiting 20 minutes for a seat, the wait was well worth it. The service was impressively fast and attentive throughout our meal. The seafood pancake was perfectly cooked and flavorful, while the beef ribs (La Galbi) were tender and savory, easily becoming my all-time favorites. The atmosphere was lively yet cozy, making it a great spot for a weekend dinner. Highly recommend for anyone craving delicious Korean cuisine with excellent service

I came here to celebrate a birthday with friends (we reserved in advance). They were so nice and accommodating. Our main waiter was Charlie. He was very attentive. We felt welcomed and not rushed at all.

The makkeoli (rice wine) was refreshing. For appetizers, we started with fried mandu (they were vegetarian). Standard dumplings, they were good. Then tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), which definitely had some kick to it (good for those who love spice).

Two friends had the braised pork bibimbap, one had the seafood dubu soup with noodles, and another had the mixed dubu soup. I totally forgot that my friends didn't know dubu meant tofu. One tends not to like tofu as much, but she said it tasted great with this particular soup. They also gave us side dishes, such as kimchi, salad with dressing, and a small fish for each person. I had the galbijjim, braised short ribs I think. Omg, it was sooooo good. I thought it would be spicy, but it was sweet and definitely not as spicy as the tteokbokki.

I brought cake and candles. They put the candles on the cake, lit them up, and sang the Happy Birthday song in Korean (like "생일 축하합니다").

I would come here again to try out other menu items for sure. 10/10. Highly recommend.

Great place for family and friends small groups, but the room is small. The food was okay, and inexpensive but the boneless chicken tastes like skin with dough in the middle.

I recently dined here, and it was great! The menu offered a delicious variety of authentic Korean dishes, each bursting with flavors. When ordering, I did feel a little rushed by the person taking the order, but other than that the rest of the dining experience was excellent. The food came out in a pretty reasonable amount of time. I recommend this Korean hidden gem!

This restaurant was so good!! Nothing bad to say about it at all! Delicious food, lots of food especially for the price, friendly staff, and quick service!

They started off by giving us a bunch of small appetizers (complimentary), including fried fish, salad, shredded mushrooms, kimchi, etc. All was very good and generous!

We got some appetizers as well. The fried pancake app was delicious.

And our main course dishes were all so good and had generous portions! I got a squid and rice dish - it was a bit spicy, and piping hot in a stone bowl! It was so good!

We all had a really good experience here, even our stepfather who is a picky eater. This place exceeded expectations!
