Best korean food in Christchurch! I know the professional service is essential, but the quality of food is undoubtedly the best. I am very sensitive to MSG, couldn't taste it here~~which makes my tummy peaceful. The rice they serve is from high quality of rice🍚 I am sure. Glad to find this Korean restaurant, TJ which tries to keep the traditional ways of seasoning. 👍
Went to TJ's for lunch, food portion was massive and tasted delicious. Ordered the spicy rice cake big dish. We were given many side dishes as well which was great and service was also quick and friendly. Will definitely be coming back!

I spent over 5 years in Christchurch before I moved to AKL in 2015. I started noticing this restaurant in 2012 and then became a regular. I literally tried everything on their menu, and everything was really good. The lady who owns the restaurant always made me feel at home each time I went there.
Food-wise: The flavor was always good and the size was always decent, and one of the high lights of this restaurant was the side dishes. They were always fresh, home-made with quite a wide range of variety (for some of them you cannot find in other Korean restaurants in Christchurch), and of course tasty.
Apart from the wonderful food, the ambiance of this place was superb. Although it was not a flash fancy restaurant, it was always homie and welcoming. The lovely lady taught me to cook some of the dishes and the night I left Christchurch she made a huge seafood pancake for me. Whenever I went to the TJ's, it reminded me of my parents at home but without nagging me :)
Although there are a few very good Korean restaurants in Auckland now, I can barely find any of them have a cozy homie ambiance like TJ's does. Still miss TJ's.
Three-year regular customer, NEVER had a bad experience.
All the best.
