It’s been about a week since I visited this place, and now that I’m back in Orange County—where there are plenty of great Korean restaurants with excellent service—I can reflect on the experience more clearly.
Maybe I was unlucky or maybe the owner was having a bad day, but the service I received during my visit was very disappointing. I stopped in because I suddenly felt like Korean food while on a trip, but in hindsight I should’ve chosen more carefully.
No hard feelings, but overall it was an awful experience for me, both in terms of service and atmosphere.
P S.
Travelers here. The restaurants we wanted to try were closed, and too long due to the Thanksgiving holiday. Decided to try this Korean restaurant. The owner and staff were welcoming and friendly to my family. There was only To-Go meals in the restaurant tonight (every dinner set was $20 - main dish, some little sides (fish cakes, nappa cabbage kimchi, cucumber kimchi), and small soup). We ordered Korean fried chicken wings, and Katsudon. Everything was really delicious and good value. Big portion!!! My 3-year-old son did enjoy the food a lot! I loved the fried chicken wings, especially when eating with both sauces came with the set. What a satisfied meal after a really long day and I was starving. / Highly recommend this place!🙌🏻💕

We dined -in asked for extra bowls, only given styrofoam bowls and was told because they couldn't handle a lot of dishes. Tried to order a couple of items and was told not available as it's crowded and take too long to cook. We also felt constantly being rushed to paid and leave the table.

Wow. This place is awesome! Best Katsu ive had in all of AZ bar none. And also better than the katsu in Hawaii
The food was amazing, and the staff were so welcoming. I came here with my family and we all enjoyed it so much. 100% would come again.

This is a great little restaurant -- the food here rocks! Whenever I'm in town I like to eat here with my wife. The owner puts a lot of care and the soups, lunch box, and bibimbap were all great :D Will be back in the future some time!

Went there again to see if they would be the same. The lady there was really mad.. saying I won’t serve you since you gave me a 1star!
Not very impressed! Very rushed and when I asked if they had fish cake soup they were quick to dismiss me! Not a fan. I’m a local and think we should have more variety. They take advantage of the locals!

Wonderful food! The new mandu kimchi soup is absolutely delicious. They have the best Kimchi. The owner came out and she was so sweet!

Everything on the menu is delicious and the owner and employees are so nice. Chicken katsu is the best.
We love it! Everything had been so good. Go try it!

Don’t order the fried chicken here. The wings are not fresh and too much flour on them, almost cannot taste the meat. The other two are okay.

The bibimbap was excellent. The meat was tender and the portions of vegetables were spot on. The army man stew was very tasty. Tasted like mom's recipe.
