Open 24 hours, solid menu of Korean Korean food (no Chinese style or influenced menu).
The restaurant is clean, open spaced, with large open windows.
There is a small private parking lot.
Good go to place for Sul Long Beef noodle soup and Kal Bi beef. Clean. Service is just ok
My favorite Ox-bone broth spot. There's an identical store on Union by the big korean supermarket, but the Northern Blvd spot is always my favorite. The restaurant in-my-opinion is cleaner and I like stepping out onto Northern blvd after my stomach is full of warm soup where its spacious and ready to embrace me! It's also less crowded and the waiters are far more quick to serve.
I've become a snob when it comes to my Ox-bone broth (sul long tang) and refuse to enjoy it elsewhere, particularly in NJ, K-town and that fancy Tang restaurant down in bay side. This restaurant is not only speedy, they're generous with their portions and is affordable.
All their food is yummy but the Sul long tang will always be my favorite and tastes perfectly after you personally season it yourself and chow down on the generously flavored kimchi and kakdoogi (spicy fermented radish)
Came here while I was in the area waiting for my car to serviced, usually in flushing you can walk down northern Blvd and there will be 3-4 places like this on the block but at the location this is the only one there so I'll admit I was hungry and this was the first place I saw however I'm not disappointed that I did stop here, the staff was all very nice, the place is spacious and has a good decor, when you sit down you're given the Korean green tea along with radishes and spicy cabbage, I ordered the Bulgogi which had mushrooms, clear noodles and rice cake in a broth with the meat, it's served with white rice and is very tasty, I finished the whole thing and it was inexpensive too, this is a spot id come back to especially now that I read it's open 24/7 seems like a good random spot to hit up if in the area
I've come here a number of times now. I've tried:
___________________________________
Ga Hwa Sul Long Tang ($9.99)
This is their DEAL. Understand, Sul Long Tang is not supposed to be some crazy burst of flavors. It's mild and light, but functions more like a good, homey, grandma-made-it soup. Though the beef is lean, and the broth is light, it's delicious. They'll give you green onions and salt for you to add and flavor according to you liking. It's like one of those soul foods you eat when you have a cold, or on a freezing winter day.
Beef Soondubu ($9)
The beef soondubu was only okay. Broth is lacking in a depth. And very little beef for being called Beef Soondubu. But heck, it's is $9. Where will you find tofu soup for that price?
Chapjae ($11.99)
Chapjae is a sweet potato noodle stir fried in sesame oil and mixed with other vegetables. This was Surprisingly delicious.
Modum SoonDae ($19.99)
Soondae is blood sausage; basically noodles and rice mixed cooked with pork blood, then stuffed in cow or pig intestines to create the sausage shape. There's no appealing way to say it. It sounds disgusting, but it was delicious. You eat it with a bit of salt and chili powder. They do a good job on this one.

Kimchi I'm not a fan of. I prefer kimchi fresh, with out the acidic bite. This one definitely has a bite to it. If that's your thing, then it's great!
I dare say the food here is healthy! You won't leave with a sick greasy feeling. The place is new and clean, but best of all, parking is a breeze as it has its own parking lot. FREE parking what what?? AND open 24/7? WIN.
This place is solid. If you're in the mood for some Korean food late at night, this is the spot. This place is 24-hours with a free parking lot. The prices are very reasonable and the quality is above average. Their cabbage with the dipping sauce is great.
Try out the Sulong Tang, obviously. Dol Sot Bibimbap is good, as well as the Bo Ssam.
Overall, good stuff. Definitely recommend.
Solid food + good service + good price = you can't go wrong.
Everything is similar to it's other location in Flushing but a totally different decor. Kind of loud when full but you're usually in and out so not too bad. bibimbapp is great here.
It's a great restaurant if you're craving basic korean food that isn't all kalbi related. Their bibimbap and soon dae gook really hit home for us. It's also 24 hours, and while that doesn't really do anything for me, it's all about having the option to go at 3 am if I so chose. Ya know? Definitely a place I'll keep in mind when figuring out lunch deems impossible even though we seem to be surrounded by food all over… why is that anyway? Try it. You won't be disappointed.
