Notable Picks
#1
Tre Kronor
8.4
A Swedish-leaning breakfast room that wins on comforting, properly executed classics—especially anything griddled or baked. The best visits feel like a steady cadence of lingonberry, cardamom, and butter-forward pastries without drifting into gimmicks.
Must-Try Dishes:
Swedish pancakes with lingonberries, Eggs Benedict, Cinnamon roll
What makes it special: Swedish breakfast staples executed like a neighborhood institution.
#2
Ban Po Jung
8.2
A mom-and-pop Korean dining room that shines in the stew lane—soft tofu, army stew, and other bubbling bowls that feel built for regulars. Keep the meal simple: one stew, one rice-based classic, and let the banchan carry the table rhythm.
Must-Try Dishes:
Sundubu jjigae (soft tofu stew), Budae jjigae (army stew), Soy marinated crab (gejang)
What makes it special: Stew-forward Korean comfort cooking with a true neighborhood-regular feel.
Worthy Picks
7.8
A newer North Park-area Thai dining room that’s quickly building a reputation for regional touches and careful cooking. The menu has higher-aiming swings than most neighborhood spots—especially the Korat-style pad Thai and richer curry plates—making it a smart “try something new” rotation add.
Must-Try Dishes:
Korat-style pad thai, Soft-shell crab green curry, Claypot jumbo shrimp with noodles
What makes it special: Newer Thai spot with Korat-style pad Thai and claypot specialties.
