  1. The food is so bad.
  2. Pretty much everything on the menu is tasty and the portions are more than fair.
  3. The stone-bowl bibimbap, which, superheated as it is, makes arguably the best after-dinner nurungji (scorched-rice snack) in the city.
  4. Great food, friendly service, reasonable prices.
  5. Its also a good option for vegetarians since there is lots of non-meat options.
  6. This is Korean food for hipsters, but it's good all the same -- wholesome ingredients, right-sized portions, light on the banchan (side dishes).
  7. One of the best Korean restaurants outside of Koreatown for authentic dishes at a great value.
  8. The food is simple and wholesome, yes they could be a bit more generous on the vegis, but portions are a good size.
  9. Not only their food is bad, the wine is cheap wine.
  10. This place is a great little authentic Korean restaurant with a small dining room (maybe 10 tables) and great food.
  11. The cold noodle beef soup is the worst.
  12. Bad food.
  13. I've ordered delivery from them for my family when they were visiting town, and they are now huge Korean food fans.
  14. can especially recommend the vegetarian (sweet potato) mandoo.
  15. Great authentic Korean food

Korean food for the hipster crowd

by albyatlarge

This is Korean food for hipsters, but it's good all the same -- wholesome ingredients, right-sized portions, light on the banchan (side dishes). All your favorites are here, with the exception of table-grilled beef, and there are even some surprises you won't find at any K-Town joint ... namely jangban guksu, jeolmyeon and -- that rarity of rarity for Korean restaurants -- brown rice. My top pick? The stone-bowl bibimbap, which, superheated as it is, makes arguably the best after-dinner nurungji (scorched-rice snack) in the city.

  • Pros: Healthy ingredients, reasonable portions
  • Cons: Cramped seating, little to no ambience
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Great authentic Korean food

by evillagefoodie

This place is a great little authentic Korean restaurant with a small dining room (maybe 10 tables) and great food. They also have a good selection of Korean soju and wines. My favorite things are the Mandu-Gui (fried dumplings) and Jeyok-Bop (hot & spicy marinated sliced pork over rice).

  • Pros: Very good authentic cuisine
1 Star Rating: Poor

Getting worse

by nelheller

This place is getting so bad it is ricidulous. The kimchi is disgusting. It seems like it is stale. The cold noodle beef soup is the worst. I was going through the other reviews and the one "Great Korean Food" caught my attention. That guy sounds like the owner Jay (maybe thats why his username is thejayspot). It is suprising to me that he is trying to dismiss all other negative reviews. Not only their food is bad, the wine is cheap wine. I been eating there for a couple of years and for some reason all the waitress that I know working there are gone and the service has gone down dramatically. They used to be really really good. I don't know what's up with it now.

  • Pros: None
  • Cons: bad food, service and cheap wine
