    Wow their famous mudfish stew was very good. I didn't taste or smell any fishy taste and it was very hearty and tasty. Oh I was skeptical at first because I'm not used to eating foods that are "exotic" but after I tasted the mudfish stew I have to say that their food is very good. Their side dishes were also very good. Additionally, I tried their goat stew and it was very good as well. It did have a gamy taste to it so I don't think I would order it myself but I would recommend it for others. They serve alcohol like soju and beer. I would recommend going here. All of my family members and even my cousins who are in the younger generation really loved the stews as well.

    Mhat Korean Restaurant - Fried rice at the end of the meal

    Mhat Korean is a casual low key authentic Korean restaurant in the area…read more I came with one other person on a Saturday and there was no wait and only one lady working. There was one other party in there with us. The service started off a little slow but it was well worth it. The menu includes casserole soups, stir fries, noodle dishes, and other house entrees. If you like seafood, Mhat is known for their mackerel and cod dishes. We wanted to try everything but ended up sharing their Bul Nak Jun Gol which was a bulgogi and octopus casserole soup. It came out in a hot pot with flames. It included marinated meats, udon noodles, veggies, in a sweet and savory soup base. It was served with banchan and rice. The dish listed that it was for 2 people but it can honestly feed up to 4. We had plenty of left overs. The flavors were complicated and delicious. It was perfect for that cold day. The lady working was really nice and helpful. She made sure to check on us and even helped us enjoy our food by cutting out the flame and making sure we were mixing it right. The pricing is super affordable. It was a great first time experience and I can't wait to come back and try their other dishes.

    I came by for lunch and was surprised to see that there were no other customers in the shop. But I…read morereally enjoyed the food! The bulgogi & octopus casserole soup was flavorful and hearty--perfect comfort food--and the gun man du were crispy and delicious. Portions were generous and the meal came out nice and hot. The only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because the service felt a little on the serious side. The woman working there wasn't unfriendly, but definitely more no-nonsense. I also paid my bill with a credit card and left a cash tip on the table, but she didn't see it and came back to ask if I intended to leave a tip--which caught me off guard a bit. It wasn't a huge deal, but just something to note. Overall, I'd come back for the food--it's solid Korean comfort fare. Just be prepared for a more straightforward dining experience.

    Unassuming corner restaurant in a spacious plaza. The food was absolutely delicious. My personal…read morefavorite was the kalguksu, but my dinner partner preferred the jjolmyeon if you're looking for something a little spicy. The noodles were perfectly cooked with a slight chew. Both kimchis were delicious, I enjoyed the water kimchi more. Service was super friendly and quick. Plenty of parking and definitely can accommodate large parties (8+). Inside was clean! Can wait to come again to try other menu items!

    5 stars I may be…read moreslightly biased, but this has been one of my favorite eats in OC since I was a child. Everything here is amazing and flavorful. I ordered - Kalguksu (with chicken broth) $17.99 : Portion size is very generous, the soup is so hearty and filling, especially on a cold day. The noodles are cooked perfectly and is topped with a generous amount of beef. My #1 recommendation from MDK. - Pork dumplings $17.99 : My favorite dumplings in all of OC. They are so incredibly juicy and flavorful and the thin wrapper helps bring out the flavors even more. The spicy kimchi here is also so yummy, the perfect balance of spicy and garlicky. I highly recommend you try it, even if you're not the biggest fan of kimchi. Overall, MDK has been here for years, and will always have a special place in my heart for the yummiest, heartiest foods.
