Jin Guk Korean Cuisine 진국밥, 진국

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!

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.

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!

First time visiting this Korean restaurant located in Pooler. Cozy place to share with family and friends. The staff were friendly and welcoming. I loved the food . I had Beef bulgogi . It is served with rice and side dishes. Amongst which i tried see weed with a delicious sauce. The menu is varied and portions are big. They also serve alcoholic beverages like beer and soju. I would say the best time to visit this place is in the afternoon.

Had an amazing Korean dinner — I ordered the short rib soup, and it was absolutely fantastic. The place was packed with Korean customers, which says a lot about how authentic it is. Definitely the best meal I’ve had in Savannah so far!

We really enjoyed all of the foods here. Cold noodles were the best in my opinion, both with broth and without. 제육볶응 was really good. 순대국밥 and 돼지국밥 were both amazing, but I preferred 순대국밥 more. 짜장면 was the least favorite one. It was a pity that we were not able to try 간짜장, and I heard that is really good. Unfortunately, 간짜장 was not available due to the chef's vacation, so we had 짜장면 instead. 짜장면 was okay, but not like really good ones in other great k-restuarants.

We had such a nice time here. Staff was so helpful with the menu. We ordered the fried dumplings, goat stew, beef bulgogi, and a chicken teriyaki. The kimchi side dishes were my favorite. We went as a party of 6. Totally recommend!
