Everything was great! But only giving four stars for portion size. Would have expected rice to be in "addition to," not layered under the Japchae.
Other places I've eaten would have made the portion size I received entirely Japchae for what they charged. Don't get me wrong, I'm a foodie and don't mind spending money for good food. But what I received seemed more like a combo meal, as it also included cucumber and cabbage kimchi along with, I believe, daikon radish, which was a nice and delicious compliment.

This place is fantastic! The 25. Korean Rice Donuts with Custard Filling and Caramel Glaze are 10/10. They aren't overly sweet and are more savory than American donuts. I could eat a dozen easily.
I love 11. Bibimbap , the beef was very tender and flavorful and was a nice balance of layered flavors and the egg was cooked perfectly.
I originally went for the Cucumber Kimchi (pint) because a few people have recommended getting kimchi here and it's fantastic. This is the best Cucumber Kimchi (pint) I've ever had. The pieces of cucumber are perfectly cut so they aren't too mushy and still thin enough for the spices to be absorbed
Overall this place is a hidden gem and I'll be coming back.

After living in Korea for 3 years, I developed a pseudo-serious obsession with Korean food. Unfortunately, Fayetteville doesn't have a ton of options when it comes to Korean food and the few decent options it does have are nowhere near the north side of the city. Nak Won is a hidden gem full of very good Korean food, tucked away in a small side street in Spring Lake (right across the street from the Spring Lake post office). I have never had a bad meal here. The teokkboki is very good and is a family fav. As far as Korean food goes, if the best BBQ places IN Korea represent a "10" on a 0-10 rating scale, then I would give Nak Won a 7.5 or 8.... but rated against the best Korean places in the area, its a solid 9/9.5.

This staff is so polite. The food : I come once a week. Cucumber Kimchi (pint)!!! 10/10 let it sit in the fridge for a day or two. Yum! Best Asian joint in Spring Lake, Fayetteville, Cameron, Sanford area, in my opinion. 14. Spicy Pork Bulgogi yess. 8. Fried Rice with shrimp. Like that it com With sides that steal the show.

The 21. Tteok Mandu Guk Soup was absolutely delicious. Very soothing and flavorful and the dumplings were perfect. The 8. Fried Rice was delicious and the portion size was very good for the price. The kimchi is more mellow than other recipes I've tried so it's great for newbies!
