Honestly we came because of culinary class wars! The service was great and the restaurant was clean but the food itself is just okay. The jjajangmyung tasted like very basic jjajangmyung nothing too special about it but it was good

This spot has been a place I've wanted to try in a while and it didn't disappoint! I really enjoyed all of our meals because it felt homemade and comforting. The service was amazing as well and super fast. This spot is very spacious with lots of seating as well. Food -- Meat Jajangmyeon 10/10 -- I could've gotten it without meat but overall very great with the side dishes! Tangsuyuk (Pork) 10/10 -- so crispy and yummy! They bring out the sauce separately from the fried pork. Hong Kong Wings in Soy & Garlic Sauce 10/10 -- the wings were quite small but overall, the wings were super soft and crispy. It was fried to perfection I would definitely come back again because the food was great and the service!

Overall: 4.5 stars for the food and service. This is a good place to get an affordable quick meal. Quality of food is great for the price and service is quick and efficient. This is a good place to try Korean Chinese food! Also great to try if you're a fan of Culinary class Wars! The Service: We came at an odd hour (4pm on a Sunday) and the store was relatively empty. There was no wait. The waiter attentive and checked on us often. The Food: Tangsuyuk: This came out perfectly crispy and the pork was tender and not too chewy. The sweet & sour sauce was perfectly made and complimented it well. Jjampong: Perfectly spicy and the noodles were perfectly cooked. There was a lot of noodles and meat/seafood in the dish. Price: Very reasonably priced for Korean food. Food was extremely filling and we had leftovers. The Atmosphere: Casual dining restaurant, good for a casual dinner or lunch. Parking: Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking.

Culinary War's fan here. I was excited to try out Paik's Noodle and planned to come here before my trip to Hmart. It's the perfect place to slip into a truly authentic Korean Chinese experience. From the moment you step in you're greeted by Chef Paik's picture and an open restaurant floor plan. We sat down at a table, but didn't know if we were supposed to order at the counter. Unless you're ordering to-go, a staff will take your orders at your table. Same with the check (which we settled it at the cash register as we didn't know). We loved the meat jajangmyeon and the tangsuyuk. The jajangmyeon benefitted from the additional pork. It's a very savory, mouth watering dish. Noodles were plentiful and cooked to perfection. The pickled turnip was delicious to cleanse the palate from the oiliness of the dish. The tangsuyuk was also a very generous portion. Freshly crispy and savory like a shiitake mushroom broth. You're supposed to pour the sauce over the fried pork, which we did. But next time I'd rather dip it to preserve the crispiness. It was nothing I've had before, very subtle, warming, and a bit bland in my opinion. Are you a fan of culinary wars?!

This restaurant was nearby and so we headed here for a quick, casual family lunch. Paik's is a Korean Chinese fusion restaurant chain by famous television host and chef, Jong Won Paik. Their simple, but tasty dishes marry the spices and flavors of Korea and China wonderfully. We ordered the jajangmyeon, meat jajangmyeon, jaengban jjajang, and tangsuyuk. Yesss, noodles on noodles on noodles. Each dish is meant to be shared, family style, especially the jaengban jajang which was a huge portion. I really liked the meat jajangmyeon, but the jaengban jjajang was definitely the stand out. The noodles were perfectly cooked and the toppings were delicious with the seafood being my favorite. It was a bit spicy for me, but we enjoyed it nonetheless. The tangsuyuk was pretty standard, but tasty as well with the perfect balance of sweet and sour. The sauce comes separate and can get a little messy, but overall good dish. Everything came out really quickly and the service was prompt and on point. We enjoyed our meal here and were pleasantly surprised. The dishes were priced pretty reasonably and they also have alcohol available. I would definitely come back here in the future.

Jjajangmyeon is a Korean/Chinese dish that is noodles with black bean sauce made from chunjang (sauce), diced pork, and vegetables (typically healthy portion of onions and cucumbers. It is undoubtedly one of my favorite dishes, period! If you haven't tried it yet, you need to. For some background, Paik is the last name of Paik Jong-Won who is a South Korean chef turned very successful business man and entrepreneur. He owns a plethora of food chains in South Korea that all have raving reviews for their great food quality, excellent service, and prices. Colorado has been lacking a wide choice of jjajangmyeon spots until recently where we have seen at least a couple that come to mind pop up. Score! Paik's is a fantastic addition to that lineup. As mentioned before, Paik's restaurants are known for food quality, service, and prices which all hit the target here. I highly recommend the jjajangyeon and tangsuyuk (fried sweet and sour pork) for a delicious mix of savory noodles and sweet and sour crunchy pork. You can't beat it!

We came here for dinner with a few friends on Friday evening and pleasantly wasn't as crowded. We got a booth and started with a few beers. For apps got all 3 available options - 2 types of wings and the fried dumplings (Ganmandu). I liked the fried dumplings a lot and particularly enjoyed the soy garlic wings. Very flavourful yet juicy. For mains, we got the Tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork), it came with fried pork in a plate and the sauce separate which was nice so we could enjoy the crispy pork. It was spicy and the sourness was actually pleasant and went well with the crispy pork. We also got the Jjampong and Jajangmyeon for mains. My friends and my husband really enjoyed the Jjampong, it was spicy and came piping hot. It had seafood and since I am allergic to shellfish, I just tasted a spoonful of the broth - it was very tasty. The jajangmyeon was alright, as someone who's actually tried jajangmyeon in Seoul, I did not enjoy it as much. I love Jajangmyeon and thought it was on the sweeter side. I even make it at home and prefer it a with a hint of spice. Overall we liked the food and will probably be back for the apps.
