I came for dinner (made a reservation) before the symphony (about 1.5 block walk from Herbst theatre). From the restaurant's website, I imagined the restaurant to be much larger. Instead, it was small - probably sits 25 (tightly) without the bar and maybe 20 with the bar. My table was next to the bar - felt cramped sitting in the corner - that's why it is a 4 star rating. Food was served temperature hot with kindness. Flavors, smell and presentation were good. I would recommend the sausage basket, a variety of different sausages, for an appetizer. It's a good segue into your main entrees which are small shared plates. They have a bar challenge - filling up a vase with empty bottle caps. Thought that was fun and an incentive/motivation for returning. The restaurant definitely would be a good bar place to hang out and simply have fun. Service was excellent - orders kept coming out as well as for deliveries. The wait staff always had a smile and kept asking if we are okay or if we need anything else. I thought the restaurant stools were unusual. Since there is no space to put your coat, purse, bags, etc., the stools open up for storage. I thought this was cleaver.

Saw the place across from the bus stop and immediately decided to check the menu out. Had dinner and everything was excellent : the quality, the flavors, the drinks (Makgeolli) and the highlight of the night was John :) 100% recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for high end Korean cuisine at good rate. Thank you John for your hospitality and talented menu! I’ll be back for sure when I visit San Fran again :)

Went to this Korean restaurant and had such a lovely experience. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal or even a little date night. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, making the whole visit feel really warm and personal. And of course — the food! Every dish was absolutely delicious, full of flavor and beautifully presented. From the perfectly marinate friend rice to the comforting stews, everything we tried hit the spot. I personally was a fan of the Spam dish. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to whenever I’m craving some yummy Korean food!
