E Tae Won Express

Pretty good food, nothing spectacular. Expensive and not much variety. Lunch buffet with about 12 choices was $ 12.

There’s not so many kind of food (around 20) but it’s really delicious. Seriously I felt like I was eating food in Korea lol $ 11.99 for lunch is cheaper than their food’s quality. I can’t wait to visit this place again.

Most definitely best Korean Restaurant in Fayetteville by far. The food is excellent, the place is clean and the service is great. This is where I have lunch every Thursday for the past two years and I have not gotten tired. And no I’m not Korean either. I have only eaten from the buffet but it has everything and it is always great. Food is always hot and has nice variety to choose from. The atmosphere is very friendly, you normally are seated right away, however, Friday’s tend to be a little busier than other days and has a larger variety of foods to choose from.

Arguably the best Korean lunch buffet in Fayetteville. The buffet offers authentic and delicious food, a good selection of meat and other unique Korean items, for a decent price. The service is always good as well. Saturday is the best day to visit the buffet, but is also a great place to stop for a quick lunch.
The dinner menu offers good options, however, the prices are extremely high. As a result, I only go here for lunch.

Worth every penny. Saturday is my favorite day since additional korean dishes are available. After trying about five different korean restaurants, this one is the winner.

Best korean joint I have came across yet in town!
Price isn’t cheap, but if you’re coming in to sit down and have all you can eat other than cici’s pizza or grease packed chinese buffet, this is definitely the place to go.
If you are on a strict lunch schedule like us soldiers, I would suggest you get here as fast as you can because there aren’t many seats and food is too good you dont want to have to leave too soon lol.

I don’t go to Fayetteville often, but when I do, I want to eat Korean or something that I don’t find near me. I Unilocaled for Korean restaurants, having been to Shila and liking that just fine. I was coming on a Saturday and wanted a korean buffet, but Shila buffet is only M-​F, so I went to E Tae Won. There was a small buffet in the middle of the restaurant with a pumpkin soup at the end (delish), a hot and spicy seafood soup, some pork offerings (I don’t eat pork, so I don’t remember), beef barbeque (yum, yum, yum), beef bulgogi (yum, yum, yum), raw crab with spicy sauce (my first time trying it and I was pleasantly surprised), and several other items, banchan, etc. What had me going back for thirds was the sweet and spicy chicken wings. I wanted to bathe in the sauce and almost did. I didn’t have any problems getting water refilled, and the buffet was a reasonable $ 14 considering the amount of beef and proteins available. Cheaper, more expansive buffets have lots of carb fillers, not like this buffet. If you want a good dose of bulgogi, galbi, chicken wings and banchan, this is THE PLACE to go.

The lunch buffet on Saturdays is the only time I’m here, and it’s delicious! Granted, there could be a bigger variety, but all their food is always good. You also have to catch them when they make the Korean BBQ.

Lunch Buffett is ok. A bit greasy. Enough to satisfy the taste buds but not too many to make it feel like an over bearing Buffett place. They were extremely friendly to me, and to my kids. They brought out clementines for them to munch on while the adults picked out our foods. I’d go again if I had a specific craving for it.

LUNCH BUFFET IZ GUD.
I’ve been coming here almost every Saturday for their lunch buffet. Bulgogi, pork bulgogi, galbi, spicy raw crab, AWESOME chicken wings, fish, soup, etc etc.
The ahjummas here are awesome.

I have been a regular of E Tae Won since I was introduced by a friend a couple years back. To be honest, this is probably not a restaurant you would think of visiting if you have never been, because of its location.
But look beyond that, they do offer pretty good home cooked flavors when it comes to their dishes. I have not been to another Korean restaurant that offer both hot and cold Bibimbap. Also they have pretty good selections of Jjigae (soups). Jjampong (Spicy seafood noodle soup) is full of flavor, and spicy! Because I have been there so often, I love the fact i can ask them for more side dishes, which by themselves are enough as a meal with a bowl of rice.

Quality meat cuts in the Bul Go Gi, and the ban chan (side dishes) were also pretty good. An authentic Korean restaurant– you almost feel like you’re in Seoul. Fast, attentive service. Watch out for cigarette smoke.

Went up to visit a friend in Fayetteville over the weekend… bought some under the counter from S. Carolina and took it up there cuz my friend said that soju costs $ 10 a bottle in NC… shiet… it was still $ 8 a bottle in SC… but he wanted some soju to eat with sum jok-​bal (pigs feet) so i obliged…
getting to this store… i was really laughing about the name… and going in, the names on the menu… they are TOO true to pronunciation… so we got some jok-​bal to go to eat back at the house along with some so-​ju…
hmmm… not much to the package… im not sure whether it was because it was a to go order or not but all we basically got was the jok-​bal, cabbage leaves, garlic, jalepenoes, dwaen-​jang (bean paste) and sae-​woo jut (dipping sauce)… all the basics, but nothing special… the main dish of jok-​bal was pretty dry… garlic will be garlic… jalapenoes were not spicy enough (of course, my tolerance for spicy food is pretty high…) I guess, it was kind of a good thing that me and my friend were drinking soju and catching up on a lot of lost time… otherwise, the meal would have been a complete bust…
on a separate note, my friend is a frequent diner at this place and says the soon-​doo-​boo (soft tofu soup) is very good… that’s why it gets three stars instead of only two… because of my friends opinion on the other dishes… too bad i probably won’t have a chance to ever go try it…
