We were greeted and given a sample of their rose tteokbokki and decided to dine in. Inside was nice and clean, good amount of space to sit down and eat. Our server was friendly, and given we were the only ones dining in at the time our food arrived at our table pretty fast. We ordered an order of fries for our kids, the portion was big and perfect to share. We also ordered our kids the deep fried dumpling (5pcs) and our kids were honestly not a fan. The filling seemed to just be glass noodles, and it was kinda bland. We got the rose sauce tteokbokki with noodles and cheese to share and it was so delicious! The rice cake was nice and soft, had a very nice chew to it. The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the sauce was creamy and full of flavor! We also got the Multteok Fish Cake Soup, and the broth was light and comforting. We truly enjoyed it, and the portions were good for sharing and had leftovers to take home! Will definitely be back!

The highlight was the vegetable tempura! Enjoyed the shrimp tempura too. The main dish was too spicy for me, but my daughter loved it. Enjoyed the whole experience of SLC Chinatown, lots of different choices

Don’t skip on: The Rose Tteobokki with cheese

This place was so good!! Located inside the main Chinatown building, Halgatteok offers the classic street food – Tteobokki! These rice cakes covered in sauce and cheese are so delicious and addictive. We got a sampling outside of the store from Sergio and it was love at first bite! When we decided to go order a full entree, Sergio took the time to walk us through how the menu works (there were 4 steps with several options) and also told us exactly what we just tasted if we wanted to order that same dish again. I’ve never had that happen before and didn’t know that level of customer service even existed! Huge shout out to him!

We liked the sample so much that we ended up getting exactly that – the Rose Tteobokki, Ssal Teok, Level 1 with cheese. Get it – you won’t regret it.

While we did a takeout order, we sat down while we waited for our order to be prepared. The wait wasn’t long at all, but there is one – of you’re in about hurry, order it before, and then do your shopping and it will be ready by the time you get back. The store was clean and well kept – green check marks in books!

Can’t wait to go back and try the other options they had!

I wish I could review the food, but I’m writing this based on the service. I was told my fish cake soup would be ready in 7 minutes. I was still waiting with no communication. It finally came out close to the 30-minute mark. I understand kitchens get busy, but a 7-minute estimate being off by over 400% is unacceptable. Poor management and a lack of respect for the customer’s time. Won’t be returning.

The atmosphere is good and the staff is friendly. I wasn’t too satisfied with their food though. Their tteokbokki was a bit dry when it came out, and it wasn’t flavorful. Their tempuras have a very thick batter which I’m not a big fan of. I personally feel like this place doesn’t represent the generic taste of Korean street food. The broth for the fish cake soup was good but the fish cake wasn’t. I don’t think I’ll come back.

I love that SLC has a 떡볶이 restaurant now! I’ve tried a few different things here, and my favorite is the rose 떡볶이. The food has a lot of flavor. I rated the service and atmosphere 4/5 because we got to the restaurant 45 mins before they closed, and they rushed and watched us, acting like they wanted us to leave. 20 minutes before they closed, they said we had to pay right then and that they were closed. Other people tried to come in and order, but they told the customers that they were closed even though they were open for another 20 minutes. The open hours on the window matched the hours listed on Google, so I’m not sure why they said that they were closed. I saw some other reviews that had the same experience as me, so maybe this is something to work on with the employees. The service was great the other 3 times I was there. I highly recommend this restaurant!

such good tteokpokki! i wasn’t a huge fan at first because the grandma’s sauce has dashi (dashima kelp soup) broth, and while it is savory and very high quality, i’m not personally not a huge fan of the slight fishy flavor (same with the fishcakes)
however i was offered a sample of a ssaltteok with the rosé sauce and it was divine!
so the last time i went i ordered the rosé sauce tteokpokki. it is so delicious and creamy. the bacon in the sauce gives a slight smokey flavor and the sausages that come with it are super flavorful while not too spicy. i like extra vegetables in mine and i also highly recommend adding noodles and melted cheese onto your tteokpokki

My family and I went to dine today and, we love this place dearly and have gone multiple times since they’ve opened. Now, I don’t think we will go back.

The servers weren’t allowing us to sit where it would be best for us, the new chairs are much to bulky that no one had any seats in the middle as they hit the person behind you, the other chairs were much nicer as we were able to put our bags away if we had any on us or our coats. We never got refills for our drinks as well.

The food, we usually get at the self-service bar appeared that there were low on ingredients. Not a lot of rice cakes as well as what was there. The rice cakes given in the order were low even with what we added. We did enjoy the taste, but with everything else going on we just weren’t able to enjoy it.

I hope it was just a bad day, but I’ve gone over some of the reviews here already and it seems it’s been on the decline. Please, I know you guys can get better. I and many others would hate if you guys were to change further or close due to this.

I had a great experience at Halgayteok. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was inviting, and the food was delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a casual dining experience in Chinatown.

Food: Tried the Grandma Tteokbokki, Gimmari Fried Seaweed Roll, Multteok Fish Cake Soup, and a rice ball. The food was delicious and filling, easily satisfying two adults.
The Grandma Tteokbokki was a standout, with a perfectly balanced spicy sauce and flavorful ingredients. The tteokbokki rice cakes are typically cylindrical and chewy. It’s definitely a generous dish because of the amount of carbs that are served. For anyone wanting to pop in and try a few money items, this is definitely a dish that can be shared with a few people.

The Gimmari Fried Seaweed Roll was crispy and flavorful. Probably my favorite among what I tasted. The fish cake soup was surprisingly hearty and comforting – it was incredibly savory. A very light yet complex combination of all flavor profiles, it would honestly stand well on its own as just a broth. That’s how delicious I think it is. The rice ball was a fun and unique experience, served with gloves for a hands-on approach. But the rice itself was incredibly seasoned and excited to go try it again.

Service:
The staff was very attentive and friendly. They seated us immediately and took our orders promptly. They were also very knowledgeable about the menu and made helpful suggestions.

Atmosphere:
The atmosphere was fun and inviting. There’s cool decor including an awesome SLC Skyline art piece in their back wall . It has a bright interior with incandescent and LED lighting. Which in my mind lends it to be more of a daytime or after work casual spot.

Price:
The prices were reasonable for the quality of food. I spent about $20 per person, which I thought was a good value for the amount of food we received.

Recommendations:
I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a casual and enjoyable dining experience. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is inviting, and the service is excellent. My verdict is this place is worth trying once – I’m personally going to go and check out more food menu items!

Overall:
Halgayteok is a hidden gem in Chinatown that offers authentic Korean cuisine in a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re a fan of tteokbokki or simply looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

I can’t stop thinking about the food here. I thought the rose was good, but the Grandma Tteokbokki sauce just hits the spot! It’s the right blend of spicy but savory. And you have to get it with the Garae Tteok! Add cheese, sausages, and noodles and you’ve got yourself a meal for two. The portion size for a single order is generous. Can’t wait to try all of the side dishes!
