We tried the galbitang and bibimmyun—both simple dishes, but they were so flavorful and comforting, like something made with a grandmother’s touch. The banchan were amazing too. The service really stood out; they kept checking on us, even during their lunch break. If we lived nearby, this place would definitely be a regular spot for us!

Just a heads-up—it’s a bit warm inside, and the sunlight hits certain spots, but honestly, it adds to the cozy vibe, like eating at your grandma’s house in Korea.

Tastes pretty good
But the food is not very refined
If you don’t expect anything, it’s quite delicious.

Good beef tofu soup, little spicy. Maybe ask for milder. Veggie tofu soup also good but the mushroom changes the flavor a bit. Kimchi spicy. Side dishes ok.

Last stop for me in cali, and this was the spot we picked for our Korean cravings. It didn’t disappoint! Truly reminds me of my mom’s cooking from the banchan to the bbibbimbbap! Both my parents and brother in law shared the same sentiment. Definitely feels like an old school Korean restaurant and loved the hot barley water!

All good here, I have so far tried 6-7 dish.As a local, I have been going to other Korean restaurants near by and This place is now one of my regular spot to go for Korea food.Only large dish over $40+ I tried so far was Kimchi stew with Mackerel, I feel for the price there could have beeb more fish but the over all the stew tasted fantastic so Still worth the price.

Authentic hole in wall homestyle Korean joint. Side dishes were all great especially the kimchi. Fried saury and kimchi bibimbap were delicious. Would love to come back for the marinated crab!

Everything was so good!
My fav was the bossam! The pork practically melts in your mouth!

Galbi was my second favorite! The meat was so tender!

Spicy cold noodle was delicious! Just wished they added apples or pears on top.

First time trying the Spicy raw crab and thought it was good! They give you gloves to eat it which was nice.

Bossam, banchan, & gaenali gukbap. Comforting. What may sound like a simple dish of boiled pork, is transformed into an incredible wrap finished off with raw garlic, kimchi, peppers, and soybean paste to be the perfect method of food delivery. On a gloomy day this soup provided a warm embrace absolutely loaded from top to bottom with meats and veggies and bold flavors. Banchan here has surpassed a majority of banchan that I’ve had at any other Korean restaurant. Baekseju available too so it’s an obligation.

Friendly and quick service to food, made the perfect formula to have me coming back. I’d recommend this over the vast sea of nearby korean restaurants in Garden Grove or just as a nice break from kbbq.
