Dae Bak

I had a great experience at Dae Bak Korean Restaurant! The food was delicious from start to finish. The seafood pancake was perfectly crispy and packed with flavor — definitely one of the best I’ve had. The bossam was tasty and tender, and the kimchi hotpot with beef hit the spot with its rich, comforting broth. I also love that this place is open late, making it a perfect spot for a late-night Korean food craving. Great food, good portions, and a cozy vibe — I’ll definitely be coming back!

wow! It's seriously on another level! I heard there's a new owner, and you can totally feel the difference. The food is trendy, super flavorful, and really unique compared to other places. The atmosphere is great, and the staff are so attentive and friendly!! you can tell they really care about the customers. The portions are generous, and the prices are totally reasonable for the quality you get. Definitely became one of my new favorite spots

Came here with some friends for late night Korean comfort food and this place slaps 🔥 tried the tuna mayo kimbab, spicy chicken wings, spicy rice cakes and dae bak fries. They were all really good, but you haveeeee to try the lychee soju!! So good!!!

Ordered a bunch of things. The only thing I decently liked was the tonkatsu. The hotpot and kimchi fried rice were a bit bland. The Korean fried chicken was quite disappointing. Not enough flavour and it wasn’t even crispy

If you’re coming here, it’s not for the food; it’s for the atmosphere and getting together with people. Came here because our friends wanted to, but I wouldn’t ever come here again. The food is bland and needs seasoning. Kimchi fried rice is pretty bland. Spicy chicken is not spicy and also bland. The kalbi was a very small portion and the bulgogi was ok. They also charged us 10.95% for tax when Santa Clara tax should be 9.13% and they hide it on the receipt. The wait staff is prompt and polite; they charged us a 20% service charge.

The good part was that they have chicken feet (bone-in) which is kinda rare and it tasted good, and servers were kind. **However, I feel like the ingredients are not high-quality or they're trying to save some from being stingy with main ingredients, (e.g. sausage in our spicy rice cake (tteobbokki) was low quality; too much rice in spam kimchi roll (kimbap)), which made their food bland. They made mistakes with our order and it was not reflected on the check. We got charged for cheese and a bowl of rice which we did not order nor receive, that could have costed us $5 more if we did not check the receipt before payment.

I recently ordered from this Korean restaurant, and I am extremely disappointed. The food I received looked and tasted like leftovers. The presentation was sloppy, and the ingredients seemed old and reheated. The rice was clumpy and dry, the vegetables were soggy, and the meat was tough and flavorless. It’s as if they just threw together whatever scraps they had lying around. I expected a delicious, fresh meal, but instead, I got something that felt like it was scooped out of a trash can. This is unacceptable, especially for the price I paid. I will definitely not be ordering from here again. Save your money and order from somewhere else. 72 dollars by first pic
