Easily one of the best authentic Korean restaurants outside of Seoul. A pure, honest delivery of…read moreeverything I adore about Korean cuisine. I ate here every lunch for a week, and sampled a broad range of items and found it all good. The Kimchi Jjigae is punchy, spicy and enriched with belly pork and pork broth. Loaded with flavorful kimchi and presented with a bowl of rice and 3 banchan, this was a must have staple for me at every meal. The pork bulgolgi was tasty, spicy, and fatty--perfect for stirring into rice and more banchan. The djajiangmein was a surprisingly pleasing bowl of spring udon like noodles, earthy slightly sweet black bean paste, and little morsels of pork to give depth and rounded mouth feel. Bibimbap was accompanied by fiery Gochujang sauce and loads of banchan vegetables. Service is friendly and quick--walk all the way in to the end of the bar to place your orders for lunch. Reservations necessary at night--especially on the weekends! They are fully booked for good reason.

The restaurant is spacious and even has a Karaoke stage set up in one of the corners. Not sure if they still do Karaoke as the signs out front seems to have been removed. Anyway, we got to ordering--the menu was quite sizeable with a lot of traditional Korean offerings. We started off with the seafood pancake, listed under the Snack section. It was pretty good; there was plenty of shrimp and squid in it. It could've been more crunchy, but still tasty. For my main, I ordered the Sun Du Bu, or tofu stew. You can have it with seafood or pork; I went with the latter. Usually sun du bu is served in a searing hot stone bowl with the soup still bubbling and you would crack an egg in it. This sun du bu here was served in a metal bowl with the egg already cooked in the soup, but it was still pipping hot and the flavours were on point. It was very comparable to the best sun du bu places in California! I would definitely order it again. Hubby ordered the kimchi stew, which was also very tasty. Our meal came with rice and a collection of side dishes (ban chan), which were all pretty good. The kimchi was probably my favorite out of the 6 side dishes served. The restaurant seems to be a mom and pop operation. Seems like "mom" looks after the customers and "pop" cooks. Overall, I was very pleasantly surprised and will be back!

Definitely a korean hole in the wall type vibe when you get here which is awesome. The place is not super big but looks like a lot of locals come here to get their korean food fix. The menu is asian with thai dishes and also korean dishes on a smaller menu. Our friend took the lead and ordered us the korean fried chicken and an order of Jajangmyeon (korean black bean noodles). Then we grabbed a couple of bottles of Soju from the fridge and a can of mango and lychee juice to mix with the soju. If you come here and get one thing, get the korean fried chicken! It's soooooo good! I miss good korean fried chicken and this hits the spot! The spicy sauce is not too spicy but has great flavor to it! The Black bean noodles were really tasty as well! It's a big portion so you can definitely share with 2 or 3 people. Wash it all down with a couple of beers or our ghetto mixed soju cocktails and you'll have a great night! Mixing the soju with lychee juice tasted better than the mango. Great homey atmosphere, cheap prices and great tasting food! I will be back soon for more chicken for sure!

Important Notice: I don't include the service quality and location in my ratings anymore, if there…read moreis something to highlight (good or bad), I will do so seperately! This place is a rather hidden and shady place, but a secret tip for the people who have been there! Don't go there for the usual Chinese dishes, unless you feel like it, but for the original Korean dishes, seperately written on a small menu. The most popular dish is Korean Fried Chicken, most Koreans go there to get their hands on the chicken. There are other Korean dishes, but they don't stand out like in Korea (if you have been in Korea, you know what I'm talking about). Maybe try the BBQ with Pork Belly (Samgyeopsal), seems good too! A few side dishes are served as well, and Korean alcohol is available (Soju, Makkgeoli). Overall great taste, a place we will go to often!!! Service: Don't expect too much service as it is an older couple only. Come here for the food, and don't take you date here ;)

I would NOT recommend going to this place until they figure out how to run a restaurant.
