“The bulgogi was well seasoned, and the side dishes were yummy too! The staff was really friendly and service was quick.”
“Tofu hot stone bowl and tofu soup was amazing! Great vegetarian options. By far the service and hospitality was the highlight. Felt like I was served a meal from my friend’s parents house (who are wonderful).”
“Great family restaurant. We love their hot stone bipimpap. The people that run this place are so attentive to their customers and you can tell they really care. We will return soon”
“A delight! An intimate setting with amazing hospitality and service. Enjoyed the best hot stone bibimbap amd bonchon. A new favorite that I will come back to again and again.”
“Beef bulgogi and chicken bibimbap were some of the best we’ve ever had. Portions were good and the servers were friendly. Atmosphere was nice as well.”
“food: got bibimbap, the hot bowl one was good with the crispy rice, menu doesn’t contain some of the more unique Korean dishes unfortunately, also not a lot of side dishes come out Service: staff was very nice, seems like a good place to get takeout Ambiance: not super busy”
“Understaffed. We waited over an hour for our food. The people next to us waited at least 30 minutes to order. When they are less busy they are much faster but we came Saturday during dinner when their tables were all full. Pretty good food, I have minimal experience eating Korean food, however based on what I tasted the salt was overpowering. Also overpriced for what we received, we paid $65 for our two meals and a drink after tip.”
“Stopped in on my way to meet a friend in the area and it did not disappoint! I got the chicken teriyaki bento box to sample a taste of everything (and a strawberry Milkis) and everything tasted great! I got in before the dinner rush and Sally the owner took care of me, she was wonderful to chat with alongside delicious food. Thanks Sally!”
“Like others, I highly recommend the bibimbap (both regular and dolsot style). I have always enjoyed pairing it with the generously portioned side of edamame.”
