Gooyi Gooyi - Santa Clara

Definitely recommend this place. It is so delicious ?Food: 5/5

My sisyer and I had a terrible experience today at a place I used to enjoy years ago before the pandemic. The female waitress (long black hair, big lips, about 5’4) was extremely rude. We arrived early for our reservation but struggled to find parking due to their small lot. My sister went inside to inquire about parking, but the waitress rudely informed her that we couldn't be seated until both of us were present and ignored her question. When I arrived a few minutes later, I confronted the waitress about her behavior. She responded aggressively in Korean, claiming it was our responsibility to find parking, then pretended that she didn’t remember talking to my sister and avoided eye contact. After witnessing her childish behavior, we decided to leave and went to Illbunjee next door.I'm shocked at how they treat their customers and urge them to reconsider their staff hiring process. I recall she was also rude on the phone when making the initial reservation.

One of my favorite Korean BBQ in South Bay area. They provide so many side dishes and the meat quality is always good.Food: 5/5

I'm happy with the food, their kimchi was really delicious! Overall isn't the best Korean place I've been to for the price but I'm happy with it.Food: 4/5

A friend of mine invited me to Gooyi Gooyi 4 years ago. She said she starts coming to high school! I have to say It is one of my favorite Korean BBQs in the Bay Area. I love the vibes and food. Totally cost around $130Vibes: good pop music and lighting! Nice Korean late-night street bar style!Food: I ordered combo #1 and make some adjustments. I changed the pork belly to short rib and added Kimchi fried rice:Beef brisket: it is so good! I dipped it into the sesame oil with salt and eat it with slices of green onions! Sometimes I eat it with garlicBone-less slice short-ribs: this is always my favorite! They usually cook it after brisket, I ate it in the same style as brisket. I added rice cake on it and added some kimchi and even better!Steamed egg: It came with the combo and a good combination with meat!Soybean soup: it came in the last. A nice warm tasty soybean soup ! I personally really like it but I know some people can’t accept the tasty.Kimchi Fried Rice: I always ordered and added pork sausage because it is really satisfy after a tired day. It includes seaweed and made it tastes even better !Totally cost: around $130 after tax and tipsParking: parking is really hard, I parked on the next store and walked to the restaurant
