Cute place with well presented food. Prices reflect the Korean Fried Chicken trend. The fried chicken is solid; crispy, with flavorful coatings. Staff is friendly and quick. Seating is limited with maybe 20 seats inside and another 6 outside.

The food price is expensive than other Korean restaurant and portion is much small. I feel the food is not healthy as suppose, taste something unusual, maybe too much marinated idk. Here is our $70 food for two.

Maejoo Wings is a wonderful way to treat yourself to a little bit of Korean, looking to eat something different this small yet flavorful joint is great just what you crave with wings or noodles served hot.

Cute little authentic mom and pop shop. I came in for lunch and the little family running the shop was eating, and the foods looked so delicious, so I ordered the tenders with their wings. Also, their pickled spicy radish was probably one of the best I’ve ever had. Delicious.

Best Korean food I've had in a very long time. We ordered the bulgogi plate and tofu kimchi stew, and both were super delicious! Beef was a premium cut and well-marinaded, and the kimchi stew had a lot of depth and flavor - you can tell they spent the time and used real ingredients to make their own broth. Maejoo is my new go-to for Korean, and we'll try the chicken next time. So glad we won't have to drive far anymore for a decent tofu stew.

Lemon pepper wings made me wonder where the chemicals were from, definitely did not taste like something for human consumption. Sweet chili was decent as well as basic white rice, but the chemical seasoning I will never get over!

Best Korean BBQ in San Leandro... PERIOD!! We should have been going here a long time ago. So happy we came in today. The service was wonderful, the chef is amazing, and the best kimchi we've ever eaten... we even took extra home! You can tell the food is all home cooked traditional Korean food, and you can taste it in every single dish. We ordered pork gyoja, sweet soy glazed chicken wings, spicy pork, and bbq spare ribs. Hats off to the chef!!

Finally a great Korean spot in the 'Dro! The place is small so don't be surprised if there's a wait. But it is definitely worth the time. The staff is super nice and the food spot on! On this visit, we ordered a spicy pork bimbimbap stone pot with a large order of fried chicken (half just fried & half sweet soy glazed). I loved both dishes. Highly recommend you give them a try.
