The owners were welcoming and very nice and seated us right away.. the place wasn't that busy as it was 2 o'clock in the afternoon. My husband ordered the special and I ordered the stirfry pork.... but they made it a little milder for me. I've been eating at Korean in Vietnamese and Asian restaurants for years and this one is by far at the top of my list. The stirfry had lots of added vegetables, and the side salad was incredible. The chef even came out and thanked us for a business because we were leaving. Great place not to be missed when you go to Parksville we'll be back.

Another one of those Yelp finds, needed a place, didn't know where to go, this one was glaring at me, so I took my wife in tow and went. This one on the outside is odd, as it is attached to a motel, and yes.... the parking is on the motel side. The main door to the restaurant is also next to the motel, and when you come in it's got this newage wooden feel, and you know you are here. We saw many seasonal food pictures up of things that are not on the menu, yet for the first night we went for the menu and ordered a pork rib dish and also their steamed egg. When the banchan came, I knew we were in for a great meal. There is this mixed salad with some sort of bean sauce they use as salad sauce.... this dish alone was a solid win. All the banchan was good, and our server would come by and asked if we needed any more. When the ribs came they were on a hot plate, just sizzling away with the white onions under the meat just caramalizing hard waiting for you to get in there and eat everything. A few minutes later the steamed egg came in a stone bowl, and our server used a spoon to separate the sides of the egg from the bowl, the steam was intense, it was a cold night, this was exactly what we needed and wanted for a meal. There was a lot of food, and we had to pack most of it to go, and I thanked our server, and asked him if we were to come back.... what would you recommend, and he pointed to the chicken noodle soup they only do for winter.... you can guess what we ordered the following day... and yes we came back for lunch. The chicken noodle soup was amazingly deep, and it is cliche to say, but very homey, comforting, clean, hearty, it had it all.... we were as happy as we were the day before, and I can't wait to come back to Nanaimo and come back to this place. Also.. if you like popular Korean-pop music.. don't worry you'll listen to it on the loop as I think I heard APT three times!

Best food in Nanaimo!…read more I dined in on my lunch break having seen the good reviews online. I was not disappointed! The quiet establishment (on Friday around 2:00) had a pleasant and clean atmosphere with some K-Pop music playing on a TV situated in a corner. The menu is clear and easy to order from. If you struggle with pronunciations, each order has a corresponding number and an image of each dish. I ordered the SO BULGOGI DEOP-BAP. It was phenomenal! The beef and rice were cooked perfectly had a slight sweetness to it, the kimchi had a perfect spiciness, the bean sprouts and cabbage were fresh, and the romaine lettuce with the chili dressing was delicious and sweet. In addition to the atmosphere and the food, the prices I considered very fair for the quality and quantity of the food. Lastly, the service was good. This will definitely be one of my #1 spots to eat on Vancouver Island! I am so pleased to have finally been introduced to this culinary gem. Incredible!

Everything was super delicious, but our fave was probably the bulgogi--it came with these crisp puffed rice seaweed crackers and a dipping sauce. The dumplings were super flavorful and while the dish comes with 3, you can add on an extra for $3. The poke bowl was fresh, and you can choose to have it either sweet or spicy. The ribs were one of my kids favorites. All dishes have a bit of sticky rice underneath which was perfect to absorb all the yummy sauces. Restaurant is cozy and stylish, and service was fast. Will def be back if ever in tofino again!

I ordered 3 rolls: negitoro roll, chopped scallop roll, and crazy boy roll. I really love sushi rolls and negitoro and chopped scallop rolls are two are my favourites in general, but the ones here were not the best ones I've had. The chopped scallop roll tasted a little bit weird and not something I would order again. The negitoro was good but not excellent. The best roll out of these 3 has got to be the crazy boy roll. I would love to try the rest of their "crazy" series which is basically rolls that are deep fried. I would love to come back and try some of their special rolls as well - those are the ones that I believe will taste better than the classic general rolls.
