I cannot recommend them highly enough, the pickled cucumber and the slaw on top of the pork buns just took them to the next level and this gnocchi flavor and texture can match that of a high end Italian restaurant. We then shared the smash burger with bacon and we were so excited to eat it I didn't get a photo but overall was amazing! The pickles are a must but the burger was so flavorful, sauce was great and the caramelized onions just made it even better. The place is a chill vibe and extremely friendly staff. We will 100% be back and cannot wait!

It was crowded on a Friday night and a bit loud as a result. The dining area is decorated with tons of cool artwork, giving off the "good taste without being pretentious" vibe that is also reflected in their menu. The service was stellar! Our waiter was cheerful, present, and attentive. Made the experience so much more enjoyable. Everybody in my dining party loved their food. The standouts for me were the East Fried Pride taster, the mocktail flight, and the chicken & waffles. Highly recommend, especially for foodies looking for a great experience without (completely) breaking the bank.

Great patio! We came by here around 4pm on a sunny afternoon for some burgers on the patio, and…read morethis place did not disappoint. The patio was fairly with constant turnover while we were there, the weather was great, and the service was A+! The inside definitely has a dark dive bar vibe, good for some occasions but not super family friendly, but we felt comfortable having a little one with us out on the patio. The food was delicious! We tried the "wings" (made of chicken thighs) and they gave regular wings a run for their money! You can do two flavors which is great, and they're very filling. We also got a burger and the special of the night, chopped cheese, and thought it was delicious. Great portions, we had a ton left to take home. The cocktail was delicious as well, will definitely try more when we come back next to hang out on the patio! Come check this place out!

Service was phenomenal -- even though my friend and I had one primary waitress, it seems that all the staff work together to keep the momentum going (ie the one who processed our payment was a different woman than who took our orders). I like that type of environment, where all staff are aware of customer needs and answer questions etc. Drinks: everything was exceptional! The cocktails were delicious! The shots of flavor infused soju were amazing! The fermented rice beer was absolutely worth trying! I would order any and all bevvies again! Now to the food! The best for me was the house fries with bulgogi! I was hesitant to order initially but so glad we did! The fries were exceptionally crispy and delicious -- haven't had amazing fries in a LONG time until now! The bulgogi complimented the fries well and didn't affect the texture of the fries. Well done!! The Mac and Chi was ooey, gooey, and delicious -- personal preference I would've liked more kimchi and next time I will also add bulgogi! Very nice comfort dish! The Trust Me caught my eye the first time reading the menu! I have yet to try a burger with PB and jelly so this was a first in that regard. The bread was soft yet crunchy and delicious. The peanut butter was a nice thin layer. I liked that I could add my own amount of jam from the dish. Flavors were unusually well-complimented! Unfortunately, I think the kimchi let me down on this one.. It was a little difficult to bite through with many layers of kimchi (my bite didn't always 'cut' through the kimchi and therefore I got multiple large pieces of kimchi in a few bites). I still love this idea and concept! Juche: might you consider adding a thin, smash burger-sized patty (hamburger, pork, sausage, or combo) to this and provide a generous portion of kimchi to the top (and an egg!)? I think that would be an impressive dish -- like a Korean take on a Patty Melt. Just an idea THANK YOU JUCHE for a great dining experience

If you're a singer, you get lots of turns to sing compared to other places that are packed and they got pretty good sound. Got some good local beers on tap as well.

I ordered the cheese curds, Japanese sticky wings and the Blues 2.0. The curds were a bit rubbery, but the wings were good. The burger was very underwhelming. The meat itself tasted like the lab grown meat. Its texture was way off. I ate it as I was hungry and I'm a big hurry, and I didn't want to make a fuss out of it as it was business related. The ambience was pleasant and the service good. I may have to try that burger again to see if it was just me or maybe the cooks were having an off day. Still a solid spot to go for apps and some beers.

Service was ok, server was nice enough but seemed felt like we were on a short leash - like we had to give our order & preferences in a particular way or she won't get it.
