We had the bulgogi bibimbap and the fiery chicken and both were on par with Korean meals I’ve had in LA. As some people have already stated all separate components of the bibimbap were well seasoned so I didn’t feel the need to add any …

Yum! Got the bulgogi bibimbap and it was delicious with the homemade sauce they have. It was also nice to have the little sides that come out first that include kimchi, which I love. Highly recommend and reasonably priced! Gave me a slice of watermelon after. So cute.

This place was wonderful! Most of our party had not tried Korean food before, and the owners were so happy to introduce us to it. The Bulgogi Dolsot Bibimbap dish was awesome. So were the various flavors of dumplings. I’m going back for more when I’m back in the area!

The dishes are very satisfying for our taste buds. We ate everything till the last drop. The pork soondubu is so tasty. The ahjussi is warm and kind. One thing I couldn’t like about is the place is too hot. Can you imagine eating hot and spicy soup and rice in a hot room? Outside is cooler than inside the restaurant.

Nam Chon in Philadelphia is a hidden gem! The food was incredibly authentic with such a fresh taste — it felt like a home-cooked Korean meal. The service was warm and attentive. And the best part? The prices are unbeatable for the quality you get. Highly recommend if you’re craving real Korean food.
