Today’s Seafood House

This place is closed, do not come here.

Yeah. a-​ok.

Came here with the families. Enjoyed a nice seafood dinner. The stew (Jeon-​gol) was too spicy for my taste, but otherwise okay. The grilled fish (Gui) was pretty tasty, but one thing didn’t add up. I’m pretty sure the yellow croaker (Jogi) is usually more expensive than mackerel (Godeungeo), yet one order of yellow croaker came with two whole fish, while an order of mackeral only came with two fillet halves (i.e.- one fish). And they cost the same. We were all puzzled.
If you are trying to avoid salt, avoid the mackerel. It sure does taste good, but in addition to being oily, it’s also pretty salty. I loved it though… and unfortunately so did everyone else at the table.

Situated in a shopping strip in the heart of Korea town, Today’s Seafood House features korean-​style comfort seafood (i.e. blue crabs by the dozen, snow crab by the lb, raw bar, and other traditional korean dishes). Reminiscent of Honeypig, Today’s is a chill, hole-​in-​the-​wall restaurant that offers no frills and a lot of food.
Walk in and you will be directed towards a table by a server. Menus are table-​mat style, displaying the different ways they can prepare your seafood and the kinds of seafood available.
Cpik and I ordered fried shrimp and a whole, steamed flounder. Ordering flounder steamed was a bad idea, given the fact that flounder is a tasteless fish. Despite the sauce that it was prepared with, the fish was bland but I blame that more-​so on us rather than the restaurant. The fried shrimp, on the other hand, was really good. Crisped like tempura, the shrimp was topped with a sweet and spicy sauce with corn, short green beans, peas, and carrots. It was definitely spicy and oh-​so delicious.
Our dishes were served with four korean side dishes, a crab, crab soup (which CPIK claims was given especially FOR him), and rice. The meal came out to 49.34 for the shrimp, a whole flounder, and two Miller Lite bottles. Pretty good, given what we had.
Much like Honey Pig, the smell of the food somehow seams to stick to you. I might suggest bringing perfume and coming in with clothes you don’t really care for.
Bathrooms– clean, single-​personed, one for females and one for males. Cpik would also like to add that there is a sink located outside of the bathrooms, made easily accessible for patrons who were eating crabs and just wanted to wash their hands.
