Kaju Korean Cuisine — Allston

Love the cheese topokki and tofu soup! You wouldn't believe how great beef and tofu soup could be, I am converted! Prices are also slightly cheaper than competitors. Will be returning!

Sundubu Jjigae is worth the wait. Good amount of favor and kick. Very balanced flavor. Small space so it is cram but if you go earlier during the day. Not too many people.

I was excited to try out this restaurant after seeing long lines outside at nighttime, but was sorely disappointed in my experience at an off peak lunch hour. The banchan (pictured here) was incredibly basic. Despite asking the waitstaff twice for a refill on the banchan, none was provided. Good luck getting any service here besides dropping off the dishes and the check, no waitstaff came by and it was nearly impossible to get anyone’s assistance. The tofu soup was passable, seafood pancake was soggy, and beef bulgogi was too sweet. I would not come back. I’d recommend you look into the many other great Korean restaurants in the area for better food and service.

My friends and i always come here kaju never disappoints! their service is so quick, the staff are so sweet and the food is the best!!! always our go to place to have a good meal with friends <3

I’ve been going to Kaju since 2013 when I started to college at Boston College. It was amazing then and it’s still amazing now. I’m Korean American myself, and I’ve been to every single Korean restaurant in Boston. I can confidently say that the soft tofu soup is hands down the best in town. they also have the best tteokbokki in town as well. If you’re looking for solid, Korean food, I would highly recommend visiting Kaju. Whenever my friends asked me for recommendations, I always tell them go to Kaju!
