Reviews For Tin & Pig - Kang Tong

Our favorite Korean in east bay. Their fried chicken and tteokbokki are the best we’ve had from more than 10 restaurants in the area! The vibes are fun for a pregame or date night with the booths in the front and the kpop is always a vibe! Their kimchi fried rice, seafood pancake, Korean style ramen, kimchi soup are some of our favs too

Super delicious Korean food with heaps of options. There's a lot of great Korean food down telegraph and most of them are really good. I think I prefer Tin & Pig because of the bigger selection. It's hard to find because of a lack of a light but definitely worth looking for. The fried chicken and military soup were the highlights of our meal!

Such a good atmosphere that really feels like Seoul in terms of the aesthetic. On top of it the food is really good. We had the budae jigae and kimchi fried rice and it was so good.

Great food, solid drinks and an extensive menu to boot! Personally enjoyed the fried chicken and the pork belly. If you're looking for a snack/drink to share, get the chimek combo!

The inside is so cool. Love that the booths are secluded. The food is amazing. Would definitely recommend stopping in if in the area.

Great food selection in a definitely hip Korean restaurant with a cool decor with tin walls and little street feel with tables in little private booths. Parking is a little dicey on this side of Telegraph but it is Oakland. I would say food is definitely on the pricey side like your typical Korean joint but the portions are great. Soups are really good and they don't skimp on ingredients. We had a rice cake soup as well as Kim chi pancake and bulgogi. Mandoo is was good too. The Korean side dishes were fresh. But definitely cost was up. Still I recommend going to go drinking and a good time. Chicken was decent but I wouldn't say the best Korean fried chicken I've had. Probably needs a little more sizzle to the seasoning. We got the sweet and spicy but next time will try the garlic soy

Covid-Take out friendly! Totally delicious. Both the traditional wings and the boneless chicken were super juicy and flavorful. Banchan (side dishes) were so good and a must order in my opinion. Shop surprised us and threw in a coke and side of dumplings too! Really can't recommend this enough.
