I am very sad to leave negative reviews. My husband is Asian, we live near the largest Korean…read morecommunity outside of Korea, we've eaten Korean food in Korea and because of availability, much of our diet is Korean food. I know that it can be hard to get foreign ingredients in Mexico even though it's gotten a lot better than when I lived there.
The banchan were mostly good and abundant. One kimchi was a little too fermented and all were bland, but overall ok. The dolsot bibimbap had few ingredients, just the rice, some spinach, egg and came with some kind of beef paste that didn't taste like gochujang. My husband found it edible, but bland.
There is a mistake on the download menu, which I assumed would be more accurate than the physical menu. I ordered seafood soon dubu jigae and got boiled water with a few pieces of zucchini and rawish supermarket mushrooms. I expected the customary silky smooth tofu, but instead it was an unappetizing mess of curdled soy milk. There was no spice from gochgaru or gochujang, just boiled unsalted vegetable water. It was entirely inedible. I ate some rice and banchan.
The server first told me I had ordered the wrong dish even though their menu was incorrect. He later offered to redo the order to my liking, but I did not trust that it would be any better. They were very kind and removed the charge.
I guess some people found the decor understated elegant. To me it was funeral.
This is an expensive restaurant with accommodating owner and staff, but without good food or ambiance. I don't recommend it.
