Kaju Korean Cuisine — Allston

Kaju is one of my favorite tofu soup restaurants in the entire Boston area, and its popular for good reason. There isn't much room for a waiting area, as nearly the entire restaurant is dedicated to tables and booths for dining.

At the end of a long week, we can always rely on the warmth and comfort of Kaju’s wonderful tofu soup. The service is always polite, friendly, and quick. Even the other items such as the BBQ and tteokbokki are delicious! They make their own kimchi, which is evident in its quality and taste. They also care about the community and contribute to charity, and the owner is awesome. An absolute must try!
