TBT - Jang

Didn’t even know this place closed..

Had the pleasure to dine at Jang while they had their fried chicken promotion and was impressed.

First off the chicken is extra crispy and beer battered. While it’s not the crispiest it does have some good flavor and for a price of $19 that includes taro fries and slaw, it’s a decent deal to share. The taro fries for me fell flat but was an instant hit by our child dining guest. Jang’s take on beef tataki is strange yet something you have to try. First off the beef ain’t sitting in a lake of ponzu sauce. This dish is not lost in the sauce, the sauce is solidified into ponzu cubes which is so weird at first but not bad. The Gogi Platter that had 4 different proteins and enough veggies and sauces to make some decent lettuce wraps.
Jang has recently opened on Jasper ave and has taken the old spot of Soy and Pepper. Service was pretty non-existent as we had to go up a couple times to get their attention so I suggest getting thos buzzers on the tables like most korean joints. Also they had seated us at the only table where they had a broken light so forgiveness please on the dark photos.

@imatty_ and @dianneyong says : Ribeye was T A S T Y with the kimchi butter. And the fried chicken was nice and C R I S P Y. Would go back to check out the other menu items.
@jowonger says: Restaurant is cozy, warm and inviting. Food was delish, however service was kind of slow, probably due to the high volume of customers that night. I find the dishes they offered on the menu are more Korean influenced than Japanese. Will I come back? Most definitely! Would I recommend this place to my friends? For surez!

Review is almost 3 years old now and even though it was a decent restaurant It looks like it is closed permanently. Sad to see it go but thanks for the food.
