Daeho Kalbi Jjim & Beef Soup

Delicious! The flavors are on point! Sweet and savory. We ordered the Kalbi Jjim Ribs with cheese. I would recommend having it with the noodles to help soak up the very tasty sauce. The servings are really big, the large bowl will serve 4 adults pretty easily. If you have big eaters in the group, you can add sides to your order. It gets busy at meal times so plan accordingly.

Food/Taste/Flavor: 5/5 - Kalbijjim (Braised Beef Rib) with cheese and extra rice cake at mild spiciness. It was enough food for four of us and absolutely delicious! They torch the cheese at the table so it’s super melted and gooey. The broth/sauce is on the sweeter side so would consider slightly spicier in the future. The beef rib is super tender and had an amazing texture. Ambience: 5/5 - clean and bright space but the tables are fairly tight together as it’s quite a busy spot Service: 5/5 - quick and very responsive from the servers but it did take about 20 minutes for us to get our food. They were quick to refill side dishes and water though. We were at the restaurant right when it opened so we were seated immediately. However, as we were heading out, there was a huge line outside the door Value for price: 5/5 - a bit on the pricier side but the food is so delicious!

I can't believe it took me so long to try Daeho :/ Lived my whole life in the bay area, and never had it until recently. It's so good!!! I had friends try out the SF location and I've walked by before but there's always a huge line. This time around, I stopped by the Milpitas location, just a little bit after they opened on Sunday morning. There were only 1-2 other parties inside. For the 3 of us, we ordered 1 braised short rib, spicy level 1, extra cheese (need to pay for it). The kalbijim already comes with some veggies and rice cakes, but it definitely wouldn't hurt to add some more rice cakes!!! You have the option to order the one with more meat. For the 3 of us, regular was just perfect. If you're hungrier, definitely add more meat! 2 purple rice also come with the meal. We were early morning degens, so we also ordered 2 bottles of cass ($8/ea) for the meal :D The meat was so tender and flavorful. Rice cake was so good! The sauce was amazing. It definitely could have used even mo
