Danbi Korean Restaurant Los Gatos

This Korean food is absolutely delish! A lot of these foods seem good to eat if it’s cold, but they are tasty anyways. We got the hot stone pot with the mozzarella cheese (which should probably have been shared by two people), seafood pancake, ramen, and the galbitang. The beef is well stewed, the hot stone pot is super cheesy, and the ramen is good quality for its price. This completely changed our view of Korean food, and we came here because we watched a Korean cooking show called “culinary class wars” and wanted to try some Korean food. Will definitely come again, and they have milk drinks and Korean sodas that the children really liked. Jipyeong rice wine was served with traditional bowls and also gets a thumbs up!

Appalling, hostile service. Avoid like the plague. I have never experienced such an appallingly poor service like here tonight. We checked Google and saw they close at 9 PM. Walking in at 8:10 PM, we were immediately rushed and told we had five minutes to order because the kitchen was closing. After a 30-minute wait, our food finally arrived at 8:40 PM, along with the forgotten appetizer we had to track down. Before I could even pick up my chopsticks, the waiter dropped the bill and demanded immediate payment because “the kitchen was closed”. I paid and tipped, which in hindsight was a mistake. At 8:58 PM, he silently dropped empty takeaway boxes on our table as a passive-aggressive hint. Then, at just a few minutes past 9 PM, he came back and literally told us to get out. I was in the middle of eating a sizzling hot pot that was burning my tongue, and this 20-something kid with absolutely zero training and poor customer service skills started arguing with and scolding me when I pointed out how ridiculous it was to rush us after making us wait 30 minutes for the food. I had to remind him that I was the customer and that he probably should not talk to any of his customers like th

My team came here for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the food quality! I recommend the kimchi & cheese hot stone pot (it is topped with pork and a fried egg on top) and is big enough for two to share. The sizzling hot stone pot makes the rice crispy and melts the cheese into a delicious combination. For appetizer I recommend the seafood pancake - crispy, flavorful, not overly greasy. The price is similar to other Korean restaurants but in my opinion the quality and ambiance is slightly better here. Very pleased and would come again for dinner! We dined indoors but they do have a nice outdoor dining area in front too

Exciting to see a Korean spot in Los Gatos! But honestly, it was just okay. It was easy to make a reservation and reserve a table - thank you. The meat dishes were a bit pricey, and the bibimbap wasn’t hot enough, I was hoping for that crispy rice at the bottom. The egg came already fried instead of raw, so you couldn’t mix and cook it in the bowl. It’s an alright place, but nothing special.

Finally the first Korean restaurant in downtown Los Gatos opened!! The first impression of the restaurant was modern and clean, the food was so delicious and the presentation was beautiful. I loved their traditional but modern gold dishes and gold lightings. The servers were very friendly and I can't wait to go back to try other dishes.
