"As always the food here is very delicious! Initially I was craving for the Korean sweet pancake then I just decided to order for dinner. First time trying their bibimbap. The bibimbap has a mix of veggies, protein and carbs. Very balanced meal. Their battered fried chicken was very crunchy and juicy and of course delicious too! Will try some of their other food next time. Thank you for the food! My cravings were satisfied!"

"I took some of my family to this spot ona whim and i was very satisfied with how tasty everything was. The bulgogi fried rice was ridiculous! i couldn't get enough, it didn't survive the dinner. The spicy pork was also very good. The La ribbies also very good. The kimchi belly was very tasty but cut alil chunky, which makes for a tough chew on inexperienced patrons. But we still enjoyed ourselves Immensely, i will be coming back when i visit again. Cheers"

"Everything was very good and the service was excellent. We got the spicy pork, ribs, and potato pancakes. The spicy pork was delicious. The ribs came out steaming on a hot cast iron. It was a little sweet and savory. The pancakes were crispy on the outside, and the sauce went with it well. The sides were delicious. The kimchi was fresh and had a crunch. The flavor was good with a little bit of spice. The service was great. The server was very nice and helpful. He refilled the water when they were only half empty. Also, the food came out quick. We will definitely be back."

"Phenomenal service and food. Our waiter was friendly and attentive, and it made an already great experience even better. We got the hot stone bibimbap and bulgogi fried rice. Our food came out quickly, and both dishes were incredible. The Korean rice punch is also delicious and I highly recommend it. Absolutely worth a visit, and I'm looking forward to the next time I get to eat here."
