The staff even seemed surprised when I said thank you and commented that the food was delicious. The banchan that came with the meal was sadly mediocre. The naengmyeon itself was delicious. Perfectly chewy buckwheat noodles with shredded cucumber and slices of beef/radish. The broth was okay -- not the best I've had for naengmyeon but satisfactory. I paid around $25 with tax and tip, which seemed pricy.

The portions were good, and every dish was tasty. The chicken bulgogi had a very flavorful sauce. The noodles in the japchae were chewy, and the texture was great. The kimchi fried rice had a tart, tangy taste. We had plenty left over to bring home. My one suggestion to the staff would be to offer protein substitutions ie a lot of the dishes have pork and you can take it out but there is option to simply substitute the pork for say tofu or egg or even chicken. The ambience of the restaurant is also very airy and sunny and bright. And they have plenty of seating. Would highly recommend!

I never really comment about it but it was geniunely quite good since the servers were very attentive and knowledgeable. Back to the food, we had the galbi, the shrimp, the korean seafood pancake, and the jjajangmyeon. The galbi was tender but it was a bit on the burnt side and I would have liked for it to be marinated a bit longer since the galbi flavor comes from the korean pear marinade My favorite was the shrimp. It was a simple dish but a pleaasant experience. It showed how simple raw shrimp and rice can be so delicious My second favorite was the seafood pancake. This was very filling with good flavor. It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with the seafood. The Jjajangmyeon was a little disappointing. I was expecting a little more punch with the black bean sauce but the rest of the ingredients were nicely cooked and I liked the touch of the apples. 8/10 - solid spot and would come back

The beef tasted good, but the amount served was hard to justify for the price. The japchae and soybean stew were also frustratingly small.

The egg soufflé, tteokbokki, and side dishes were enjoyable, but they weren't enough to make the meal feel worth it. For what this place charges, I expected much more.

It's tightly packed but spaced well enough, given the small space. Mainly soba and udon with both hot and cold options. Compared to other udon spots in the area (Yume, Futago), I think the noodle texture here stands out to me. They're slightly dinner but they're cooked slightly al dente, which I appreciated. I would say they are similar to Korean kalguksu noodles, which are hand-pulled and hand-cut noodles also often served in a soup format. I got the sukiyaki, which had a great sweet and soy sauce-forward broth, a poached egg, and topped with julienned scallions. I thought it was solid but not outstanding, knock my socks off!

Meters don't run past 6pm so I didn't need to pay. At 7pm, the establishment had almost reached capacity, but a few tables remained. I sat down and ordered my go-to, the spicy seafood noodle soup / jjampong ($19.99). Since I last visited, the menu had gotten a revamp. Jjampong now has a dedicated section. A previous iteration of the menu had a regular portion for $17.99 (v-shaped bowl with tapered bottom) and a larger one for $19.99 (deeper round bowl); now only the regular portion is offered at the updated price point. Otherwise, the dish remains unchanged. The sauteed vegetables and seafood carry strong amounts of smoky wok sautee / wok hei, which also permeates the broth. This dish is still a comfort food of mine, but I will reconsider visiting if the price points breaches $20.

We ordered the cheese topokki (soft rice cake, fish cake, vegetable, & mozzarella in Korean spicy sauce) & the beef bulgogi bowl (fried marinated beef, vegetables, steamed rice & side of soup). The cheese topokki was just as good as we remembered - chewy, flavorful, comforting, & a little bit weird. The cheese was poorly distributed, but it was still very tasty. The beef bulgogi bowl was really underwhelming. Firstly, it was very little food. We were promised vegetables, but there were only a few scarce onions & zucchini pieces mixed in. It was also dry. It was devoid of moisture & sauce, so we added some from the fridge at home. The side of soup was a joke. It filled only about 2/3 of the container & looked so sad, we wondered if it was the sauce that we we so desperately needed. Nope, just a meager amount of watered down miso soup. So the conclusion - great topokki, sub-par bulgogi, non-existent soup.
