    Lla bbok gi - ramen noodles, fish cakes, cabbage, & rice cakes in a spicy sauce - $7.5 - menu section B
    Kristin C.

    I'm not comparing them to high end restaurants because that would be unfair. I think in comparison to other hole in the wall joints, casual Korean dining, and food court level places Friends deserve 5 stars. 1. They have no credit card minimum and there either is no tax or it is already included (in from Illinois so I'm not sure if this is PA standard) 2. Food comes out at a reasonable time, I get if you're in a rush it feels a bit long, but everything is super fresh. The fried food -tti gim($8.5) and the lla book gi ($7.5) were both piping hot and I could tell it wasn't just sitting around. It's nice that they give you a number so you just wait at a table. 3. They have some really good classic Korean comfort/hangover/treat yourself classics. 4. They ask you at the window if it's to go or for here. Even if you eat 'for here' they were more than kind to give me to go containers when I couldn't finish my food. 5. Everyone I talked to was very kind and quick with their work. I would recommend this joint. I came here at 1pm on a Saturday. I will say that the seating is a communal seating area for the entire food court so during 12-1 it can be hard to find a place to sit. Around two is usually much quieter.

    They are under a new ownership and the food I tried in the past two weeks definitely tasted better. Friendly owners and it is one of the better food court stores at assi.

    The appetizers had to have been pre made and didn't taste fresh but they were still good. House…read moresalad was really just lettuce a few tomatoes overly dressed and drenched and the tempura appetizer, popcorn shrimp and pork gyozas had that chain restaurant flavor feel to it. the specialty rolls however were delicious, full of flavor and gorgeous. i recommend asking for one to be wrapped in cucumber it was very good. The desserts were also, like the appetizers just very pre made chain type of food. They were good desserts sure, just underwhelming and boring. I gotta say tho their whipped cream is strangely different and delicious! As for the service that was not good. There was a long wait of people but we had a reservation and got sat within 3 minutes. hostesses definitely were confused and could have used some help. The atmosphere is lovely and it's such a beautifully designed restaurant. It took around 15 minutes before we even got greeted by our server and he just kept going round to other tables after taking our order instead of immediately putting it into the computer. After her greeted us we ordered drinks and he came back without drinks asking for our appetizer order so we put that in and it came out 5 minutes later... we still had no drinks on our table and appetizers came out first... not great. food runners just brought everything out and no one ever really checked to ask if everything was good. took a long time to get appetizer olates removed and even longer to longer to get our servers attention to order rolls. eventually we ordered and it took 25+ minutes for food to come out. The rolls were good yes but we were over it by then. A century later after hunting someone down we were able to order dessert and again took a while to come out and took even longer to get the check. the server was nice but there was only like 2 servers on a Saturday night so i think if they had more servers the whole meal would have been great.

    Service was great but definitely come if you want a normal portion size of meat for an adult. Jk…read more It was meant for rabbits. How do you serve an adult these little cubes of steak as a portion. Thought they messed up the order, guess I just messed up coming here instead of mizu.
