나루터 Naruto Korean Restaurant

"My first time eating at a Korean restaurant. The food is certainly very authentic as the menu is written in Korean with English notes. The staff is helpful in explaining what things are and making suggestions for what we might like. We have had some Korean food before as we have had a frozen beef bilgolgi and I have made a chicken version from scratch. My daughter opted for a beef bilgolgi hot pot, while my wife chose a ramyun hot bow. I chose the special which was a choice of several Korean soups and stews as well as a main dish. I chose the kimchi stew and the beef bilgolgi. This came with additional sides of kimchi, sweet potatoes in honey, radish kimchi, pickles, and fish something. All of it was good and while some was spicy, nothing was tongue torchingly hot. The authenticity of the place was brought home as other guest arrived. We we first but the next five groups that arrived were Korean who conversed with the staff in Korean. If you are an experienced foodie with a knowledge of Korean cuisine or adventurous, by all means try this delightful place. If you are a newbie to the food, do a little research then dive in. Enjoy!"

"It's a great place to sit down and get some great food. The service was really great and food was served fast didn't have to wait long. The food was really good, the best I've had in a while when it comes to eating Korean food. The dish sizes were more than I expected in a good way. Only really came for the ramen but glad we tried the other dishes. Got kakuni ramen (below), miso kakuni ramen, sundae, Tteokbokki, naruto bowels, gyoza, chicken bowel. Will be going back soon great place to eat."

"The food is ok. I had the okonomiyaki which I have been scouring parts of Alabama for. Fortunately, I found a rendition of it here. The okonomiyaki is a bit much for one person but I would recommend it to others who want an idea of what okonomiyaki tastes like. I suppose it's Osaka style rather than Hiroshima style as it doesn't have noodles in it... I think they call it mixed seafood jun too.... They have other Korean dishes that look authentic so if you're wondering about Korean cuisine in Auburn, I would try here! I saw they have fried chicken with a spicy sauce so that's my next thing to try."
