    My partner and I enjoying our first time at the establishment.
    Alexander C.

    The food was phenomenal. The place had a feel of authenticity to a true Korean restaurant and cuisine. The young waitress we had was sweet as could be and made us feel welcomed for a first time visit. 10/10 recommend.

    I hit the jackpot with this spot. I hit up La Grange to visit Wild Leap brewery which I definitely recommend. But after a day of drinking beer, I needed substance in my stomach. I love Korean food so I said why not. Let's see. And boy did I see! This spot is on par with some good Korean restaurants in the Atlanta area. Trust me I have eaten at a ton of them. And the prices are reasonable! We started with mandu - dumplings which were yum-my. Then I ordered the spicy pork BBQ and John E. ordered the beef kalbi which is short ribs. The beef was the bomb! The pork was good but the beef was sweet and juicy and a great portion size. The banchan is always my favorite because it's unlimited and I'm greedy. We got Kimchi - liked, bean sprouts mixed in a sesame oil-loved, pickled radish - loved, apples mixed in mayo- not my thing but good if you enjoy that, I think shredded potato - good and something else, I'll have to look it up. It also came with a soup which was a nice touch after all the food. I like to end my meals with warm liquid. I liked that they freely refilled the banchan, some places are stingy but not here. And it came with white rice too. We spilt the bill and it came up to about $25 each. Not bad for a full belly. They were not busy and the place was visited by a number of Asian folks who appeared to be regulars. They do take out as well but who leaves unlimited banchan on the table, not me. I highly recommend this spot while in LA Grange. It's in a shopping plaza so plenty of parking. The windows are dark but don't be scared every one was really friendly. The food is great! I

    Haven't had good korean food since visiting Montgomery Alabama so I was excited to find this restaurant in La Grange. They are very covid safety, must have a mask on to enter & the staff has theirs on as well. Tables have hand sanitizer, the whole restaurant is very clean, incl the bathroom. We ordered a pork dish & a beef dish to share, the pork was a little spicy & the beef on the sweeter side, like teriyaki. Both were the small portions but was more than enough to fill our bellies, along with the sides and seaweed soup. The seasoning of all their dishes were spot on. I will definetly make the drive back up here next time I get a craving for korean food.

    Korean food is one of my favorite cuisines and this restaurant is very authentic. From stainless steel chopsticks to Korean cable tv. The food was fantastic and the staff friendly. The waitress was super nice and always checking on us.

    Stopped on way to Atlanta. Very good homey restaurant. Ordered their tofu soup (spicy). Menu is updated so those of you can read better.. their combinations were roved or maybe this is their dinner menu... not sure. side dishes were OK.. that come with each order (if uve never had korean before.. comes with side dishes to eat with your rice/ dish.)

    Banchan

    Not busy on a Friday night. We ordered Kalbi Tang, Duk Manduguk, Mul Naengmyun, and Jajangmyeon. The first disappointment was that they only offer jajangmyeon on Saturdays despite it appearing in the menu with no indication of its limited availability - utter disappointment since this was why we came to this spot and not Todamgol. So, the order was changed to Dolsot Bibimbap. We also ordered kalbi and bulgogi but only after we confirmed the bulgogi was cooked over a fire and not on a pan. The banchan was good, seven plates; though I'm always weirded out by the mayo covered apples! A note to those who might be newbies to Korean food: You can order extra of any of the banchan. Just ask. We didn't ask since we ordered so much other food, so I can't comment on the staff's reaction and compliance. A hiccup was when they tried to give us Yukgaejang instead of Kalbi Tang. Luckily it was a mix-up with another table so they had the correct dish out within a couple of minutes. I ordered the mul naengmyun and I initially thought I only needed her to cut the noodles four times but I really could have used four more. But what disappointed me the most was the fact that there was no meat in the bowl, just a crazy amount of noodles and some radish, cucumber and a half egg. I don't need a lot of meat, but I'm used to a few slices to eat with the noodles. The lack of meat made it look like a cheap version of the dish. I'd give up half the noodles to get a few slices of meat. That would have made it close to perfect. The other dishes were tasty but I do have to note that the bulgogi looked and tasted more pan-fried despite what we were told. It's so hard to find a place that will cook the bulgogi on a grill to give it that delicious flavor and char.

    Although we have never been to Korea, this appears to be just as authentic as a trip across the Pacific. We typically talk to our waitress about what they suggest and we eat like kings! I prefer a Hite beer and they have plenty ice cold. Highly recommended if you like Korean or are just looking for something adventurous. Enjoy

    Dolsot Bibimbab with tofu instead of meat
    Wes T.

    The food here was excellent and reasonably priced. I used google translate to explain that I am vegan, and I think it came across for the most part given the language barrier. Only one side of banchan tasted like it might have fish sauce. The dolsot bibimbap was a healthy bowl with rice, tofu, corn and other veggies. It was served with kimchi, pickled veggies and seaweed salad. The restaurant was clean and my server was very friendly. This is a wonderful addition to this area given the amount of chain restaurants.

    Yum!

    This was my first try at Korean food and I really enjoyed it. I wasn't looking for Korean food, but due to the snow storm my options were limited to this place, Japanese, or Applebee's. I'd starve before eating at an Applebee's and I wasn't up for the typical "dog and pony" show at the Japanese joint. I entered the door and was pleasantly greeted by the staff. I was brought some hot tea by the server and she attempted to explain the menu to me, but I still wasn't sure what anything was, even after her attempt to explain it to me (just due to my ignorance of Korean food). I saw a picture on the menu and told her that's what I wanted. It was pork with onions in a red sauce (it looked good). After a few minutes, she brought a huge tray of food out on a cart and most of it looked "weird" - yet delicious. Luckily, I watch a lot of Bizzar Foods, so some of the food looked familiar. I recalled that Kimichi from the TV show and I was eager to try it. Along with my main course, sides included the Kimichi, egg plant, soup, small shrimp (parts and pieces with shells flash fried), and many other typical Korean sides. I must say that I made a pig of myself and ate everything, even after telling myself that there was no way I could eat it all. It was all different to me, yet remarkably tasty. In addition, I enjoyed the company of an all-Korean ambiance, staff, and customers. I would definitely recommend this place, but could only give it 4 stars because I couldn't compare it to anything, as this was my first experience with Korean food. I will definitely return when business brings me back to town.

    I love Korean food and I love Bibinbop- not sure how to spell. First the positive. Food was good…read moreand there was a lot of it. They also provided free green tea for the table. Negative. The food was cold. I ordered with the hot stone and the only thing that was hot was the fried egg on top. I love when the rice gets burned a bit on the bottom but was barely warm. It was also supposed to be beef and veggie. I think I found two small pieces of beef. For service you ring a bell which is weird. We sat in the middle of the room and you would think they would at least check on you. And did I mention the live ROACH we found on our table? We told them and they just had us switch tables. Ughhhh

I personally prefer grilled mackerel (B9) but my friend wanted the sole. Still didn't disappoint. We had the chicken teriyaki which I wouldn't normally order if I wasn't on a diet. We got sauce on the side and I salt and peppered it, still good. Our table also ordered the Tonkatsu (which has huge portions, two layers of deep friend pork), C7: Bone-in Haejanguk (hangover soup), and C2: Bulgogi in a hot pot. They both looked and smelled delicious and our friends loved it. All in all, I have no doubt that almost everything here would be good. I'm definitely coming back next time I'm in town!

    Based on the prior reviews, we decided this was an option we had to try. I have to reiterate that…read morethe outside of the building is not fantastic, but the food inside... HOLY MOSES! It was fantastic! Authentic, fresh, plentiful and satisfying. My husband got the Pork Bone Soup with Sliced Pork Belly and I got the Beef Bulgogi. Both were absolutely fantastic! We also got the Soju and Rice Wine. The Soju is unique but reminds you of a smooth Saki. The Rice Wine is an effervescent drink and very fresh. We would order it again. As a note, the Rice Wine is large enough for two to share. Before the main course came out, the owner served us two types of Kimchi (cabbage and a radish) and a bowl of bean paste/gochujang blend veggie dip with sweet onion and fresh sliced peppers to dip. Both mains came with a side of steamed white rice and the entrees did not disappoint! We wholeheartedly endorse both. Next time I want to try the seafood pancake... Following dinner, the only dessert option is a small yogurt drink that is very reminiscent of orange sherbet. The perfect size to top off the delicious meal. If you have a chance, do your tastebuds a favor and give this place a try! We will certainly make a point to come back when driving through this area

Should be good for big groups as well, never took a big group here but seems like they have the space. Parking lot has spaces but not a good lot. Lots of potholes and some big ones at the entrance.
