    Sukiyaki Beef

    Excellent an delicious food! Owners are lovely couple who are polite and very welcoming. Cute and chill ambiance

    Short ribs
    Olivia R.

    We got the short ribs, chicken karaage, pork belly fried rice, meatballs, gyoza, and kimchi salad. The fried rice was my favorite dish, nothing else really stood out. I've heard good things about this spot so I'd give it another chance. Maybe dine in instead of takeout next time, although the atmosphere isn't very inviting.

    Bibim-Bowl, Kimchi Fried Rice with Pork Belly
    Shana L.

    Cute little spot we came across in magnolia! Coming back and bringing friends next time! We ordered the calamari salad and wanja for appetizers and the kimchi pork belly fried rice and bulgogi bibimbap for our entrees. We finished everything.

    Bibim bowl with chicken.
    Brooke B.

    Bibim bowl, for the win! So delicious and such great texture with the crispy fried rice at the bottom of the hot plate. Add the special sauce and it's so yummy. Limited seating.

    Soup, Rice, Noodles & Entre Menu
    Mia K.

    A nice place for Korean/Japanese comfort food with nice service. Casual eatery with a handful of tables and seating at the bar. Roasted garlic calamari salad has fried calamari, avocado, carrots, cucumber, greens & a nice citrus dressing $12 4* Bibim Bowl excellent! Served in a hot iron skillet that keeps it warm while we ate. Like the veggie heavy ratio to rice. $11 (with $3 pork belly & $2 SP GOP-DOL option) 5* Spicy Soft Tofu Stew with mushroom comes with rice. More soup than stew. Mild but tasty. $12 4* Service so nice! Located -on Wheeler between 32nd Ave & 33rd Ave N (feels like a big alleyway) -1 block south of (right corner of) Magnolia Playfield & 1 block north of W McGraw St

    "Pancake" w/seafood option
    Willy M.

    Sometimes you just feel like a quiet neighborhood dinner. Came by for dinner on a weekend, small spot located in Magnolia area. Friendly greetings as we walked in, we sat in the booth and nice lady came by with water and menus. Simple menu with a good amount of items, we were hungry and off we went to order. We started with the "pancake" and added the seafood option (it's a Korean pancake). It was pretty good, nice and crisp, a little greasy as we all like it, ok amount of seafood, cut into 4's to share, size was pretty average, but overall it was tasty. As for our mains, we got the: "Bibim-Bowl" with bulgogi meat, it was pretty good, they do charge you extra for the meat choice and if you want it in the sizzlin' skillet, we opted for that. It was pretty good, came out sizzlin' as can be, mix it up, crisp rice on the bottom, tasty ingredients, add some of their gojujang sauce, you are good to go! Don't forget to scrape it! "Chicken Katsu", this too was pretty good. Pretty simple, good sized chicken cutlet and nicely breaded up, not greasy and quite crispy crunchy as we like our katsu. This entree comes with a bowl of rice, miso soup and a small side salad, pickled veg and a dipping sauce. Service was fine, it wasn't busy when we came by, prices aren't real expensive but definitely not cheap, it can add up depending on which meat options you choose with your entrees etc. Glad we came by, would come back again to this little gem in Magnolia. FYI: Let's not all go at once, because I hate waiting for a table, thank you! Sincerely, Willy

    Bimbim bowl with bulgogi
    Lacey M.

    This is my first yelp review, hi yelp, and I'm glad it's a positive one. Great food for the price. $13 bimbim bowl +$2 bulgogi (and it's a lot more food than it looks!) also tried the gyoza - yum! Ambiance was right up my alley, hole-in-the-wall cozy vibe with random things scattered about because it's a small space. Had a "neighborhood spot" feel, I'm here for it! Service was nice, can't complain there (which I usually don't complain because I used to be in service)

    Chicken Karaage
    Jennifer L.

    I happened to be in the Magnolia area, watching the sunset and was craving something hot to warm up my body. Overall, I'm not sure if I'd come back again but the food is seriously worth the try! Food 4/5: The sukiyaki beef and chicken karaage was absolutely delicious. Well seasoned and flavorful. The karaage was really juicy, which is just how I like it (some places have really dry karaage). The udon was really big and filled me up. The soup and udon itself tasted really good, my only complaint is that I don't think the shrimp tempura I added in was worth the $3, considering the fact that other added items into the udon were $2. There were only 2 shrimp tempuras and the shrimp wasn't very well coated Service 2/5: We walked in and got seated at a table that was not wiped down yet. We would have been more than willing to wait a couple minutes for them to clean the table and set it up. Then, they took 15 minutes to hand us menus to look at. As the night went on, it got slightly better and they would check in on us, so I gave them 2 stars for the improvement

    An absolute treat in all sense of the word!…read more We made reservations for an early dinner on Saturday, and glad we did because there was a never ending stream of people. By 6pm every seat was taken, including the bar. Highly recommend reservations. We had the cauliflower, squash blossom, squid ink fried rice, and the NY steak. Everything was absolutely phenomenal. The cauliflower was cooked perfectly and had a really lovely smokey-ness to it. The sesame and almond puree and mint oil was divine. Honestly I could have made a whole meal of the cauliflower. The shrimp in the squash blossom was a delightful burst of flavor and texture. The sauces, while quite strong on their own, did not overpower the squash blossom, and each bite could have different flavors based on the sauce combinations. The squid ink fried rice had good textured rice AND the nori seasoning was perfect. I didn't get a lot of kimchi flavor, but it was truly a perfect fried rice- a little salty, you could tell it was fried but not greasy or oily, and a good complement to the steak. The steak was cooked perfectly. Each bite was so tender, and every part was the same level of done. A perfect medium rare. I don't know what they did to the brussel sprouts, but it was one of the best brussel sprout dishes I've ever had. There was a sauce with the steak (maybe dwenjang based?) that added such a nice deep salty and savory touch to the steak. We left feeling quite full, and about $200 poorer. Overall highly recommend. The staff was friendly and informative, interior was cozy and inviting, and the food was 10 out of 10.

The entrées had really beautiful presentation, but the flavor surprise we found in the appetizer wasn't there in the mains. I didn't care much for the salad, broccoli, and sprouts. The kimchi over rice would've been a better pairing, or even a new take on potatoes or different vegetables. The service was good, but not exceptional. For the price we paid, taste should come first. Some of the ingredients and pairings just felt random. Basically, good, but not $230-for-two good.

The space was nothing remarkable, the entrance didn't really mention Chan, but Spruce instead. Confusing, is it a rebrand or different name depending on the day or?? Look at the menu before you go and see if you consider it $$ or not, I don't have a good feel for that sort of thing as my restaurant outings are infrequent.

It is set up like a cute korean style bar with small round tables which make sharing easier. They have a pretty good selection on their menu and we ordered a couple of items to share. The Rose Ttoekbokki with cheese was very yummy, but it kinda tasted like pasta with rice cakes instead of spaghetti. I think that is the point of this dish, so if you want a more traditional spicy flavor then get the other ttoekbokki option (spicy rice cakes). We still loved this one and the rice cakes were so chewy and delicious. The cheese corn was very yummy and exactly what you would expect. It pairs perfectly with the other dishes. My friends also shared the Seafood ramen and Beef bulgogi. They liked both dishes. One of our favorite things were the side dishes actually! The tofu was so yummy, and the bean sprouts were so crunchy and well seasoned. We even asked for extra! The only aspect that makes it difficult to come more often is the price point.

There was no garlic at all, but what I did get was a pretty large appetizer that did its job and more. The main dish, the hotstone beef bibimbap, was a lot worse. Firstly, this came with ground beef rather than the beef slices I was expecting. The rice at the bottom was dry like it should be in a clay pot, but lacking really any of that slightly-burnt, hard qualities that makes a clay pot rice what it is. It just tasted dry. But the ground beef was probably the worst part. It was dry, lacking in really any seasoning, and the portion was tiny. I'd finished the beef with still half the bowl remaining. This was not a bibimbap I would come back to at all. Overall, there are way too many better places in the international district for me to ever recommend this. 5/10

The restaurant is meticulously clean and elegant, which makes you just want to eat. In fact, the food was so wonderful that I hardly spoke a word between moaning and eating. To cap off our meal, they provided this delicious cinnamon ginger drink to help settle our very full tummies.
