The food is good, but not exceptional. The kimchi stew I had lacked depth; while they used very aged kimchi, the sourness overwhelmed the other umami flavors. The side dishes were tasty, but they had a store-bought quality. However, the spread was impressive, and the dishes were aesthetically pleasing.

This place offers a lot of variety with their menu. Service was great. When I was done I packed my leftovers and they put it in a bag for me, which was nice! Tried the steamed dumplings and spicy pork bibimbap. Steamed dumplings were good and comes with a lot of pieces. Side dishes were good but felt like the flavors of each one could be a little stronger. The bibimbap great overall with sauce on the side to adjust to your spice level.

I had the pleasure of visiting this Korean restaurant for the first time, and I must say, it was an excellent experience from start to finish! The staff was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and helpful, making me feel right at home. The service was prompt, and my food arrived at the perfect time - hot, fresh, and full of flavor. I really appreciate how attentive they were throughout my meal. If you're looking for great food and even better service, I highly recommend this place. I'll definitely be back!

Oooh haven't been here so long, and they have changed so much! I heard that they have new owners now, and they definitely changed interior, new menu, everything looked much better! Got to try their spicy pork bulgogi saambam, side dishes were all so yummy, and veggies came with this had variety of different wraps and all were so fresh! Bulgogi was good as well, I was impressed that they really have improved on their quality of food! Can't wait to come back and try new food!

We haven't been here in a while and I assume they have new manager/owners since the menu looks different. Their side dishes were really yummy and I can tell they made an effort in each dish. We tried two of their soups (see photos) which are not often found in other Korean restaurants around here. It did taste yummy and satisfying especially when the weather is cold outside. We also shared the acorn jelly salad. It was delicious and refreshing but not as good as my mom's home made ones. Overall, excellent meal, service and experience. Highly recommend!!

I had the sweet Pork Belly & my husband had the Galbi and everything was delish!! We had a bunch of entrees and none missed. We got seated immediately on a Saturday night. Will def come back to try other dishes. They do not have Korean hot dog which was kinda sad but there was a LOT of food for just 2 people. We were pretty full

Based on my Yelp friends' reviews, I have been wanting to try this restaurant for a while and I'm so glad I got to try tonight! One of my favorite thing about Korean food is banchan (side dishes) as it's so fun to sample a little bit of everything. There were 8 different kinds brought out and I would say taste was about average but I appreciated the diversity and plentifulness. I could make better but it takes a lot of time and effort to make each side dish so I always appreciate someone else doing the cooking. We ordered galbi- Korean beef short ribs, spicy pork belly, and oxtail soup to share. The portion sizes were huge! Could have easily fed 5 people. Both galbi and spicy pork belly were flavorful. I just had a bit of the soup and it was just ok as I expected a richer broth. We were all very full and still had so much leftover to take home. They do charge a 3.5 percent transaction fee for credit cards which is a pet peeve of mine but I honestly didn't mind as it was a TON of pretty good food with great prices. Service was very good although the restaurant was pretty busy, especially for a weeknight. We all said we'd be back so that's always a great sign.
