## What is Worth Choosing

For New Jersey residents, King's Restaurant in Paterson is unequivocally worth choosing for its unique position as a single venue that delivers mastery across three distinct and complex Asian cuisines—Korean, Japanese, and Chinese.

The primary reason to choose King's Restaurant is the **unparalleled authenticity and depth of the Korean menu**. This is where true fans of Korean cuisine can find everything from the traditional, nourishing broths like **Ggori Gomtang** and **Sollongtang** to the best stir-fried dishes like **Japchae** and **Ojingeo Bokeum**. Instead of having to travel to different specialty restaurants, New Jersey diners can satisfy their craving for a full Korean feast, whether it’s a spicy bowl of **Yukgaejang** or a perfectly grilled **Bulgogi** platter, all in one sitting.

Furthermore, the high-quality and vast selection of **Sushi, Sashimi, and Maki Rolls** ensures that anyone in the group who prefers Japanese cuisine will be equally satisfied. The range goes from basic rolls to premium options like **Toro** and sophisticated **Specialty Rolls**, all prepared with the care expected of a dedicated sushi bar. This makes King's Restaurant the ideal compromise for groups with diverse cravings, eliminating the need to debate between a Korean BBQ joint and a Japanese sushi house.

Finally, the focus on shared, large-format meals like the **Casseroles** and **Steamed Dishes** (which are noted to serve two people) makes this a spectacular choice for a family or group dining experience. Sharing dishes like **Budae Jjigae** (Army Base Stew) or **Gopchang Jeongol** (Intestine Casserole) is a hallmark of communal Korean dining, offering a rich and social culinary event.
