I got the gan-jang beef bowl for $16.53 after tax. I think the beef flavor was good, but the beef texture itself was inconsistent. There were tender/fatty portions, but parts of the beef were quite tough & hard to chew. It came with a soft boiled egg, rice, sesame, and seaweed flakes.

They charge $2.50 extra for kimchi. I feel like if you order the meal without kimchi, it lacks veggies & something to help you finish the rice. If you were to compare that...
Updated! Menu has changed to be more expensive and less generous. I couldn’t understand why, our lunch was underwhelming.

Original: Fast delicious and affordable in a good open space, never a line, lots of seating. Affordable too, and nice people.
Food’s great and CHEAP!! (<$10!!), atmosphere is great, modernistic place, it’s got a lot of seats, would come again!

Edit (12/07/2024): Their cod roe mayo bowl has a little too much mayo now. It used to be pretty much just cod roe, which I enjoyed more because it balanced out the “oiliness” of the egg and mayo with the roe’s saltiness. I wish they didn’t add much mayo to their roe.
