A lovely nice little Korean spot on the corner of a street. The food is not the most authentic but it is often good. I’ve come here enough to essentially try everything. The appetizers are all great, with the expect of the takos, but the portions tend to be a bit small for the price. They seem to recently increase the sizes though so I don’t mind it much anymore.

The food was good, fresh, and tasted delicious. After living in Korea for 6+ years and my partner being born and raised there, the standard was pretty high, but we really enjoyed it. They definitely delivered in that aspect. However, the service was definitely lacking. Whereas they were kind and respectful when speaking to us, it was while we were eating or waiting for food that was slightly annoying. We never received individual plates for our starters and no server came to our table after we sat down, so we had to go up to order. The two teenagers working there were loud, disruptive and wouldn’t let a single song play for more than 30 seconds without changing it. I caught myself humming or singing quietly to a song just for it to be cut off abruptly at least six or seven times. They definitely killed any good vibes that were being created by the awesome decor and great location. Maybe hire two workers who aren’t going to flirt and be loud so they don’t disrupt the people trying to eat and enjoy their lunch. At the end of the day, they’re not there for fun, they’re there for work. Thankfully the food more than made up for it. Will definitely be back, but we expect either new servers or better service from the current ones.

Decent place to have some popular Korean dishes. I had a bulgogi bibimbap. It may not be the most authentic but still taste good.

I really hate to give bad reviews… But as someone who is married to a Korean and very experienced with the food life and culture, this was the worst Korean food I’ve ever had. The 참치 김밥 spicy tuna kimbap only had tuna, cucumber and radish in it. If you served this in Korea people would protest. The flavor was boring and lacking filling.

A “hole-in-the-wall” place! Unlike many Korean restaurants, where they tend to overuse the spices to a point they overpower the natural taste of key ingredients, the food here appears to reach a good balance among all ingredients, including the spices. This was the case for the ones we tried. The seaweed roll (beef) tasted just like how my mom used to make them — my mom was an excellent cook. The kimchi fried rice with pork was really a surprise to me — how mildly kimchi was infused for soft but really tasty treat, not overpowering the whole thing. The homemade dumpling was good in analogously balanced manner. The sauces that came made it even better – the peanut infused (?), low salty soy sauce for the dumpling and the seaweed roll, and the mildly spicy mayo that went well with all three items. Compliments to the chef who appears to have keenly developed sense of taste and craftsmanship!

Would have been 5 stars but for $3 extra I would’ve expected more meat than this. The bulgogi is mixed into the rice in minuscule shreds.

Food was good. Would recommend their wings and dumplings. Love their kimchi too, however I would add a little bit of seasoning or even salt to the bibimbap, the vegetables are lacking.
