The tiramisu crunchy milk tea is soooo good!
They also have a photobooth with lots of options for K-Pop artist frames. Great opening hours + location! 10/10

I wholeheartedly will admit that I judge Korean restaurants more by their banchan offerings than by the food itself.

Okay, fine the food matters but do you SEE that plate of side dishes in the background? And it's all for one person! (Me. It's for me.)

I just love digging my chopsticks into different types of kimchi (radish is my favorite), fish cakes , and potato salad !

Fun fact, my mom is really obsessed with K-dramas and was so curious to try this 'kimchi' that they refer to all the time. I thought it was the cutest thing, so back in college, I took her to her first ever Korean restaurant to have bibimbap and kimchi.

Bibimbaps are so fun (you gotta get the stone pot for the ultimate experience)! You get to squirt tons of the spicy sauce over your vegetables and quickly stir everything together so the raw eggs coats everything and cooks from the heat of the bowl (we don't stan salmonella). My favorite part is the crispy rice that gets stuck to the bottom of the bowl. It's like a snacccc

Staff are nice but the drinks are not as good as they were before. Or maybe it depends on who’s making your drink.

not worth 1 cent, because the demon slayer drink i ordered tasted soooooooo sweet that just looking at it is enough to get diabetes. Disgusting

I would like to say the cup is too soft. I try to shake the drink however the cup is too soft to hold and drop on the floor. I’m sorry to bring up extra work to your staff. But it is a matter that the cup is not good to handle. And more disappointed that the staff didn’t show courtesy to offer making a new one for me and I have to pay again. Hope the company will do more and let the customer have a valuable experience.

Went to get some bubble tea as I do like it and I DID NOT REGRET GETTING IN THE ALLEY! I asked for a recommendation and barista told me about the crunchy cocoa milk tea. It was SOOOOO GOOOOD!!! I savored every last bit of it. Loved it ❤️

Nothing worse than a like warm bubble tea served with a bad attitude.
