Service was great. The food was horrible. Very low quality ingredients. I came here with my daughters and we couldn't finish our food. It was pretty gross. We drove here from South Hill because they had a gluten free menu, as I have yo est gluten free. The gluten free menu was just a few items from their normal menu but served without sauce, one option for ramen and it was very very bland. My daughters ordered from the normal menu and again very bland very low quality food. We left very disappointed.
Quick service, you can choose between the a la carte menus and the all you can eat sushi bar. They do have desserts but none gluten free. They serve sake and a few other drinks but I don't drink. Sodas with free refills are good. I like their edamame appetizer, and the cucumber salad.
Great Chinese restaurant! The owner is extremely friendly and accommodating. My wife is gluten free and they were happy to explain which items could be made GF and took extra caution preparing her food. The food is some of the best I've had in the area
Hello, celiac disease sufferer here! I absolutely love Korean food, but it can be difficult to order gluten free due to the ubiquitous presence of soy sauce. This is why I tend to stick to grilled meats and choose the unmarinated ones. Palace has a great selection of unseasoned meat and you grill it on a clean metal surface at your table, which makes for pretty low cross-contamination risk! I do not know if they have gluten free soy sauce. I didn’t ask as I often bring it along to Japanese and Korean restaurants and add it to my own dish (just put the bottle away if you do this as outside food and drink are generally frowned-upon). Palace does provide sesame oil with salt and pepper for dipping, which is a delicious gluten free condiment for the meat.
The only thing I missed from the grilling experience was the lettuce, raw garlic and jalapeño, and pickled radish that sometimes accompanies Korean BBQ at other restaurants. Just a preference, but I missed these flavors and textures.
Oh my god. I can't believe NY doesn't have one of these places.
Of course, NY has good traditional Korean oxtail soup places (sulking tang), but this place is better than all of the places I've been to previously.
First thing I noticed was the homey-Korean interior. Wood furnishings, like a typical Korean mom and pop restaurant. The silverware was on the table in a wooden case, along with napkins at your disposal.
The menu is taped to the wall at your table, and the menu is simple and very easy to understand. They go over what the traditional Korean beef soup is for those who are not familiar.
The broth for the sullung tang was not a typical milky white, like I've seen for most if not all Korean oxtail soup places in NY. It was see through, like a lighter chicken broth color (if you know what I mean). Regardless, my dad, who grew up in Korea, said that normally, the broth should be this color, not the milky white that we've seen. They have thin noodles that go in the soup, and they have gluten free options for those!
With good sullung tang, you need good kimchi. Wow, this place has some delicous kimchi. It's not too fermented, so it's not too sour, yet it's not too drying, like the non-fermented kimchi. It has a perfect balance, and made such a good complement to the soup.
The 6-piece dumplings that we also got as a side dish was also amazing. They tell you exactly what's in it, so you know what you're eating. They make it all by hand, which makes it extra special.
My family loved this restaurant. Staff was super friendly, treated us like relatives, and they checked up on us to make sure we were comfortable.
All in all, I'm devastated that this place is only in Washington. I will keep looking for better places in NY and hope that one of them can compare.
