Chingu

Casual late night Korean food plus fusion dishes. Fun atmosphere.

Chingu's Korean menu is built for a table that wants to share. Korean fried chicken comes in honey-soy or sweet-and-spicy versions, while bulgogi fries layer beef, mozzarella, seaweed, and sesame over fries. We like how those playful plates sit alongside steamed egg, corn cheese, and fried mandu filled with pork and vegetables. For a more substantial meal, the San Mateo restaurant offers LA galbi, japchae with bulgogi beef, and bibimbap topped with a fried egg. Tteokbokki combines spicy rice cakes, fish cake, and a boiled egg, with additions such as ramen or cheese available. Kimchi fried rice can be ordered with beef, pork, or Spam. Grilled pork ssam and spicy chicken buldak with melted cheese add still more variety. Chingu's appeal is the mix of Korean comfort food and anju-style dishes that invites everyone to choose something for the table.
