Very excellent food and experience! Being new to Korean food, I wasn’t sure what to expect. In the small dishes at the beginning, the seaweed and sauce, onion/peppers with a sweetish soy sauce, and the pickled radishes were very good. Surprisingly, I really liked the radishes in Korean chili sauce, but it’s too spicy for me. Main course was Korean Ramen. Delish!! Highly recommend this small, authentic restaurant!!

We arrived close to closing time, but the server welcomed us with a warm smile and showing great hospitality. We had heard that their Bossam was especially delicious, which is why we decided to visit. And, it truly exceeded all expectations. It was honestly the best Bossam I’ve ever had in my life. The meat was tender, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. They also served a variety of side dishes, which made the meal even more enjoyable. If you love Korean food, I highly recommend visiting this place. It’s definitely worth it!

Super authentic Korean restaurant! The short rib soup is perfect for a cool day, super clean and delicious broth. The dumplings are also fantastic, full of green onions and flavorful meat. Also ordered the spicy pork bulgogi, which was nicely spiced and so tasty. The sides are all nice too! Much better than most Korean food I've tried in the area, it feels so unique!

I recently moved to Savannah for my U.S. Army duty station and stopped by this restaurant because I was craving Korean food. Since I came alone, no one really paid attention to me at first, but they did take my order once I sat down. There seemed to be two Korean owners, and they mostly focused on their regulars before heading to the back. If you’re someone who enjoys eating alone without small talk, this place is actually a great fit. Just don’t expect greetings or much interaction. The food itself is definitely tasty!

There are several Korean restaurants popping up in Pooler, thanks to Hyundai mega plant. It’s a welcoming sight to add more international diversity to this SE Georgia town. Jin Guk is probably the most authentic and most flavorful restaurant of all Korean restaurants in Pooler. It’s owned and operated by vibrant and gifted, 77 year old lady and her 81-year old husband. The menu is limited but has enough variety of dishes for all tastes. The seafood scallion pancake was packed with ingredients, and the batter is crisped to perfection. Banchans (sides) were truly tasty balanced with sweet and sour; black bean noodles were the best I had in GA, not to mention the classic bulgogi had a fantastic balance of flavor. My chef friends have texted me how great her spicy pork feet (specialty of the house). The owner was so kind and chatted at our table as if we were at her home. Great food, great experience, highly recommend if you want truly authentic food.
