MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View
Brick walls, funky artwork and wood floors offset by greenery await at Anju. The result is a homey-meets-hip space that feels comfy even when jam-packed. The name refers to Korean dishes best enjoyed with alcohol, highlighting a range of sweet, salty and spicy tastes. Similarly, the menu showcases a series of typical offerings—from fried foods to rich stews along with beer, soju and makgeolli to boot.
Start with banchan like Brussels sprouts and apple kimchi, before devouring the perfect pork mandu. Diners longing for a taste of home will find comfort in the items from Chef/owner Danny Lee's mother, Yesoon Lee, like dak jjim (sweet chili-braised chicken with potatoes and onions) or dolsot bibimbap, blending crisped rice with tofu and grilled veggies.
