All of the food was extremely flavorful and uniquely savory but still sweet. Although the special combos are meant for 1 person, they can DEFINITELY feed 2. My party ordered their special combo 1, popcorn chicken, and rice cakes. Their spicy cold noodles and rice cakes were just the right amount of hotness. Definitely added to the dish rather than overpowered it. Same with the side dishes. My favorite was their rice cakes. Overall solid korean spot!
Came here for dinner with my girlfriend on a Friday night We were seated right away and provided menus. We ordered the Bulgogi Rice Bowl and the Spicy Pork Rice Bowl. They came out quick and really hot. While we did wait for our rice bowls to cone out, we were provided banchan. They were all good and had good flavor and spice to them. Our rice bowls were delicious, and the Spicy Pork had the right amount of spice for me. The staff was quick, attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is a bit noisy, but we were able to have a conversation still sitting side-by-side. There is large parking for the entire plaza, but we were lucky to find parking when we arrived. The place is lit well, and clean all around. Prices are a little more than average. I wouldn't mind coming back.
Came here for lunch with my mom. There was still plenty of parking at 11 AM. We were seated right away. Ordered the cold noodle soup and mom had the spicy beef soup with vegetables. Both soups were delicious. The bon chons were very tasty and fresh as well. A definite go to for good comfort soups.
I’ve heard about this place, so I wanted to give it a try when I was craving soup. We ordered a bowl of beef bone soup with brisket and a spicy pork hot stone bowl. The soup was plain; no bone soup flavor. Adding salt and green onion didn’t really bring out the bone soup flavor. The hot stone bowl was tasty. The banchan dishes were okay. I’ve had better Korean beef bone soup elsewhere, and it’s definitely not the same as compared to the ones from Seoul. The service was okay, and the ambiance wasn’t anything special.
It is our first time in this restaurant. We were in the area during lunchtime and looking for a Korean restaurant that is not “All you can Eat”. This had excellent reviews. It is a casual restaurant. The customer service is not stellar since they seemed to be understaffed. There was only 1 waiter and it was busy. The menu is limited and there were mostly beef dishes & no chicken. The menu items were on the pricey side. I don’t eat beef so we ordered spicy pork sizzling plate and seafood pancake. The food, side dishes, and sauces were tasty. The spicy pork had little meat and lots of onions. This is why I am giving the restaurant 4 stars vs 5 stars.
