WooRi Jib is a family-owned Korean restaurant located in Ellicott City, Maryland. I had the pleasure of dining here recently, and I can say with confidence that it is an excellent spot for authentic Korean cuisine. The menu features an array of dishes from traditional favorites such as Galbi Dolsot Bibimbap and Tteok Mandu Guk to more modern offerings like Kimchi Pancake and Spicy Squid over Rice. The portions are generous and the flavors are spot on. The service is also friendly and attentive. The side dishes (banchan) are particularly noteworthy. They are plentiful and varied, with something to please everyone. The restaurant has also recently switched hands, so there are some new items on the menu that are worth trying. Overall, WooRi Jib is an excellent option for anyone looking for a delicious and authentic Korean meal. The food is fresh and flavorful, the portions are generous, and the service is friendly and attentive. Highly recommended!

This is the best, most authentic Korean food in Ellicott City! The food is consistently delicious and there are so many great options on the menu. We've also consistently experienced wonderful service from the kind staff who always work so hard to ensure everyone in the restaurant is taken care of. I highly recommend this place and am always excited to introduce it to friends and family. While you may not notice the restaurant from route 40, it's not at all hard to find or get to if you're following your maps app. The restaurant is clean and welcoming and overall a 10/10 establishment!

We've gotten take out from here twice now! Both times it was REALLY GOOD. We tried the Dolsot Bibimbap and the Kimchi-jjigae (A kimchi and pork belly stew) and both were delicious. The stew especially was the right amount of spice and meat. They even packed a bunch of sides to go for us! The prices were really good especially for the area, and the food was good warm comfort food. Everything was fresh and hot. We only got take out, but the staff was polite and helpful, both in house and on the phone! I will definitely be back to try more options and get more Kimchi-jjigae. My only complaint is that I wish it were easier to find the menu online! It really seems like Google Maps is the only place to find it and both the old menu and the new one are posted here. I wish we'd gotten a take out menu. We never tried the "old" version of the place before it changed ownership and the menu changed, so I can't compare! I just know that everything we tried was delicious! Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Oct 2023 We came here for lunch on a Sunday. The place is a bit small and difficult to spot, located at the back of the building (at the bottom of the hill), at the corner next to a MMA gym, with the entrance located behind the only tree next to the building. There is free parking both in front and behind the building, though the back of the building is less busy since the front faces the rest of the shopping center. For those who park in the front, there are stairs on the side of the building (not the one next to the main road) that lead down to where the restaurant is. I'm not sure if there's an elevator. The inside is very open and bright, with one short wall and some potential wooden hanging dividers. There are about 14 tables ranging from 2-6 people capacity. The aisles between tables are pretty big since they use carts to deliver food. There is a pretty obvious sign in front of the seating area that states that plastic bags ($0.10) and takeout containers ($0.05) are an extra charge. There are two bathrooms in the back, one male and one female. The staff were friendly and polite but not very attentive. We mainly saw them when ordering and delivering food but that was it. They didn't refill the waters and people had to flag them down for the check when they came by delivering food for other people. They were not very proactive. To start off the food, they give you 10 free small appetizer plates: beansprouts, broccoli & carrot, egg rolls, seaweed, kimchi, barley wheat jello, spicy pepper, soy onion & garlic, miso cabbage, and spicy cucumber. You can request free refills for these 10 plates. We ordered a good variety of food. My favorite was definitely the La Short Ribs, very tender and easy to eat. I would say the best korean short ribs I've tried so far. The seafood pancake was good though a bit too wet, not crispy. The Jokbal was subpar and you could get better at Lotte Market, which says a lot. The Beef Bibimbap and the Chik Naengmeyon were both very good. Overall, good food and minimal service. May or may not come again. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 4 Recommended dishes Bibimbap

If you had a Korean grandma cook simple Korean dishes and banchan, it is hard to think the food would be any better! We usually get a combo of grilled mackerel and soybean paste soup and another soup and we usually bring home enough leftovers for another meal for about $40. The servers are so concerned you enjoy yourself! What a find. A true family gem.

Food here seems authentic and is very good. Place can be a little hard to find since it is in the back of the strip mall, rather than the side facing the boulevard. Probably one of the best choices for Korean food in Ellicot City, as long as you are not looking for anything too fancy and just want to eat well. Food: 5 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 2

Smaller hidden Korean place on the corner of a shopping center. Stopped by for some spicy rice cakes and was surprised by the generous portions and affordable prices. Seemed to have a wide selection of authentic cuisine for sharing with another. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

WooRi Jib is an amazing small Korean restaurant! As soon as I walked in I was greeted by the host and seated, it was the first time I've been to a Korean Restaurant so I had a some questions picking out since everything was completely new to me but the waitress was very kind and gave me some recommendations on foods I should try! I ended up going with the Fried Dumplings as the Appetizer and the Pork Tonkatsu as the Main Dish as you can see in the photos attached in my review! To my surprise as well you get a large amount of side dishes that can be refilled at no cost upon request too which really stresses the value you get for your buck. Getting to the food I ordered the Fried Dumplings were really delicious and had really good flavor and the dipping sauce it came with really added to the flavor! I highly recommend trying it! Now the Pork Tonkatsu was also really good, the Pork was cooked beautifully, it was crispy on the outside since it is breaded, but the pork on the inside was really soft and delicious! And it wasn't dry like some other places I've gone to in the past that overcook the pork to the point where its too tender. The Pork Tonkatsu also comes with a Fried Egg Over Rice and Cabbage with a really good dressing on top which I forgot to ask about, it also comes with its own dipping sauce that I also recommend trying too!! Again I highly recommend trying out WooRi Jib if your around the Ellicott City/Baltimore Area! In addition the waiters were very attentful as it started to get busy around dinner time since it was Friday (6/30)and always checked in with me and the other tables if we needed anything! Overall I really enjoyed dining at this restaurant, the amazing service and I will definitely be coming back again!

A very friendly and welcoming restaurant. 8 different banchan dishes arrived that ranged from mild to spicy. Seafood pancake was delicious, came out hot and crispy. Ordered the beef rib in broth that was a little salty but otherwise cooked to where the meat fell off the bone and the broth had been simmering for quite a long time to meld all the flavors. Service was excellent. Orders arrived very quickly, water was replenished immediately, waitress chatted up our table, etc. Can't say enough good things about this restaurant.
