    Inside dining area
    Brad H.

    It pains me to give this place 3/5, but the service was awful and many others complained about the same thing. There was a lady that appeared to be a server, but only sat you brought you drinks and then it was radio silent. My friends and I waited quite a while to order apps and entrees, but when we could, it was awesome. The food was delectable a special shout out to the monkey brains. I will definitely be back and hope to up my review with better service!

    Seafood pancake, fried pork, fermented side dishes included.

    We lived in Seoul for two years and didn't realize this place had opened until two months late! We visited on a Sat for lunch! It was amazing! Very happy to see actual Korean owners and Cook! Every dish was delicious and took us right back to Korea! I noticed one reviewer said something was bland... NOT TRUE! Every dish was seasoned perfectly and the appropriate sauces and sides (such as fermented foods) were provided. It was perfect and we couldn't stop eating. In particular, I loved the Spicy Soup which, until now I had not been able to find of quality in the US. This will become a regular place for us and we'll definitely take friends there too! Highest recommendation!!

    Pork bulgogi and rice

    Lunchtime meal. Menu is extensive with a great variety to choose from including tons of sushi. The inside ambiance is comfy and the place is not all that big. I ordered spicy pork bulgogi and it came with hot white rice. Also get a selection of 5 different banchan which was a pleasant surprise. I also ordered a squid salad but it never came so I didn't get to try it. The food was sizzling hot. I enjoyed it and took some home for a snack. They don't have a lunch menu and drinks come in bottles with a glass of ice which I liked. After a fab tip I got out with a $29 total bill. Recommend giving it a try and next time I'll try some sushi.

    Took us a little bit to get here, but so glad we finally made it out. Korean husband and I decided to try this place for lunch today, and it was great! We ordered the seafood pancake (soooo good), jjangmyeon (pro tip- ask for the pickled radish to eat with it), kimbap, and beef yakisoba. Everything was fresh, delicious, and authentic. Can't wait to come back to try the tofu soup and bibimbap.

    **5/5 Stars** Absolutely loved this spot! The food was fantastic and the service really stood out, everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Every dish we tried was a hit. The *spicy shrimp ramen* had the perfect kick with a deep, comforting broth and plenty of shrimp (tempura style and served on the side). The *beef bulgogi* was tender, flavorful, and nicely balanced with that classic savory-sweet taste (tasted just like what we had in Korea a few years ago). We also ordered *chicken nuggets and french fries* for our toddler. They were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Perfectly fried and not overly salty. The *kimchi pancake*was a standout- crispy yet soft and savory. It was served with a delicious spicy and vinegary dipping sauce. The *side dishes (banchan)* were fresh, plentiful, and delicious, which is always a big plus. The ambience is cute and clean, with a cozy interior that feels well taken care of. One small note: when we first arrived, it was very quiet- like library-level quiet. I'd love to see them eventually add some K-pop or light background music to give the space a little more energy. Overall, amazing food, great service, and a lovely space. I'll definitely be back!

    Was underwhelmed, especially based on previous reviews. Wanted to call to get takeaway or Uber Eats but they have no phone and are not signed up for delivery. Spent $85 on Cucumber salad, shrimp pancake, combo beef and spicy chicken, spicy shrimp ramen, and salmon carpaccio. The carpaccio was the best part, and my bf scarfed it down bf I could get more than one bite. We will try again in-store...to-go may have been the downfall. Cucumber salad was not flavorful or mixed- DIY. Beef and chicken combo was good, shrimp pancake bland, as was the ramen. Server was super sweet as was other staff. Again, we will try again and eat in next time!!!

    My favorite place in the world. Double chicken mesi with 3 teriyaki sauces and a California will…read moreget you so full and is so delicious. Best bang for your buck. Very nice workers as well. Not the greatest inside but hey, 95 percent of their orders are to go give them a break and eat at home. If you want to eat Japanese inside go to a full fledged restaurant.

    October 2022 Tell me…read moreyou don't believe in cleaning without telling me you don't believe in cleaning. Atmosphere: Place is objectively disgusting. Check the photos - I'm not making this up. Sludge, muck, and dust were everywhere. And what I at first thought was a giant cob web was actually the home of 2x LIVING spiders. *Note = spiders only live where there's food for them to survive. In this case there were tiny flies. Wonder where else the flies are. Service: Friendly and direct. Business oriented, not customer-experience oriented. Food: I ordered the chicken hibachi. 95% of the order was rice with about 4-5 oz of chicken plus veggies. Rice = flavorless, pointless filler Carrots = unseasoned boiled carrots Cabbage + broccoli = salty, unappetizing, thoughtless, gross. Chicken = weird chewy texture like it was bad meat that had been de-thawed improperly. Flavors of only sear and teriyaki sauce. Pink sauce = weird, sour, onion-based, and gross Teriyaki sauce = pleasant at first with a horrible aftertaste. Maybe it's old? I literally took a bite of each thing to make this description then threw the entire meal away. It was that unpleasant. I will never be back. Glad I didn't waste any more money here.

    It's a shadow. It's a cob web. No, it's LIVING spiders eating tiny flies! Wonder where else the flies are.
