I think she was the owner of this restaurant because her attitude was extremely rude in front of everyone. She spoke to both customers and staff in a disrespectful manner, which made the atmosphere quite uncomfortable. The food itself was nothing special—just average at best—but what truly ruined the experience was the terrible service. The staff seemed unmotivated, and it took an unusually long time for our food to arrive. Overall, it was a very disappointing visit, and I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Exceptional service. The food was delicious. The sweet and spicy chicken was more sweet than spicy. The beer was tasty.

Have a chance to try out Japchae and Tteokbokki (Rice cake), both dishes are decent but did not stand out as I wanted. However really impressed at their free popcorn and the pickled radish side dish.

Japchae was cooked fine, but the flavors felt a bit mild, I wished they served with kimchi to flavour it up. The veggies were fresh, but the dish lacked the depth seasoning I was hoping for.

Tteokbokki had a good chewy texture, but the sauce was just okay—sweet and slightly spicy, though not as bold as I expected.

The Gamjatang was amazing! The Chicken and Croffles were so tasty. The pickled radish (mu) and popcorn served as soon as you sit down is such a great touch. So good!

Some of the best fried chicken I have ever had. Service was attentive and excellent at noticing when we needed assistance. Friendly atmosphere and other customers seemed to likewise be having a good time. The raman was tasty but the sort of thing I could have made at home. The Daikon and popcorn were fantastic snacks.

The meat is so hard and unpalatable. It's like being cooked directly from frozen.

Reply to the merchant: I understand. If it doesn’t taste good next time, don’t insist on eating it and just let it be used as kitchen waste. Because I was asked to pay when ordering food, I didn’t want to waste it. ❤️Be a wasteful human being next time! ❤️

By Dae Jeegae is good, plenty of ingredients in the pot, delicious.
However, fried chickens are over seasoned, too heavy taste on the chicken, not so well with the sauce/snow powders. Luckily chicken are crispy, I will still give a 8/10.
