“What a great place, especially for families! The staff is friendly, attentive and bilingual should you be more comfortable speaking Spanish! Everyone at our table enjoyed their delicious breakfast of perfectly cooked pancakes, eggs, bacon etc! I know it sounds like a lot but order a biscuit for everyone to try at least a bite!!

“Food was delicious. Might be my favorite Korean spot in the Bay Area. The kimchi fried rice was mixed with cheese and the flavor was not overpowering. The fried chicken was perfectly crispy. The real winners were the tteokbokki and kimchi jigae. I want to go back.“

“Great service . Good drinks.“

“Came from Los Angeles to stay at the Marriott Marquis and our server at The View - the terrific lounge on the 39th floor - said the burger here was worthwhile. She was ? right. The burger itself was flavorful and the crunchy, but soft bun and the jalapeño aioli were just right. The picture here is of the Bavarian soft pretzel that we had as an appetizer - it came out hot and the beer cheese was crazy good. The restaurant’s interior is very basic/seat yourself and the noise level is HIGH. Prices are typical for a hotel, but I’d go back for this meal again if I return to the Marriott.“

“Called in for takeout late on a Saturday night. It was 11:30 PM. Surprisingly, the restaurant was completely empty. I thought there would be more people hanging out here! Not too familiar with Oakland, but maybe it was a location issue? Anyways, we called and had an estimate of 25 minutes, but our food was ready in 15 minutes. Going inside, paying and checking out was easy.

We specifically wanted bossam. We also got the tteokbokki.

Service was quick and friendly.

At home, when we started to eat, we wish the bossam had more cabbage than the portion of steamed napa cabbage they gave us. The sauce flavors were good though and they gave us some banchan. The tteokbokki was tasty.

We were also able to takeout some makgeolli since the H-Marts and other Asian grocers were closed at this time.

All in all it got our bossam fix taken care of.“
