Food was not bad, but i felt like it was overpriced for what it is. It is great for a quick korean- Hawaiian style fix. I would stop by again if i am in the area and feel like splurging a lil bit for hawaiian food vibes. Basically a jam packed to go container of food and sides

I get the mini spicy chicken with the side of kimchi and glass noodle and it hits the spot every time. Love it!

Legit Korean Food...don't think price wise it's too expensive or out of South Orange County norms. I got the spicy pork and fish combo plate.... Was absolutely delicious and would return.

Satisfies my banchan cravings without having to go to a sit down Korean restaurant. Banchan is honestly my favorite part of going to a kbbq or soon tofu restaurant but I don't even need the mains! Every couple of months when the cravings hit I place an online order for a veggie combo which comes with 6 sides plus half brown rice half cabbage. Omg so many options. I love japchae so I usually make that two of my sides, then the kimchi and spicy cucumbers are always a reliable pick for me, same goes for the fish cake. Then really I debate with myself whether I'm going for the broccoli or sprouts. Both are so simple just lightly cooked to still have a bit of crunch and tossed in sesame oil but so delish. I have gotten the tofu in the past and I'd say pass on it. It's not actually marinated but just cold firm tofu that comes with a container of sauce that isn't too special. On the rare occasion that I am craving actual protein I have tried the bulgogi and the spicy pork. Both are solid choices if you are wanting some kbbq without having to go to a sit down and smell of smoke the rest of your night. Fresh and full of flavor, good seasoning and well-cooked. But man the banchan really are the stars here.

I have been meaning to update this. Yes the owner has reached out and been very nice. I do think the ordering system must have messed up. I will give it another chance the next time I am in the area as the food was very tasty in the past.

So good! That's all I have to say. I ordered pickup and every item was delicious. All the sides tasted way better than any side dish you get at any regular K-BBQ place. Portions are generous and the number of options and sauces are great. I'd recommend this place to anyone craving Korean food. Service was quick, organized, and they got everything in my order correct.
My office is nearby so I eat here regularly. The staff is extremely kind and quick. Food is delicious, never any issues with orders, 10/10!Parking: It's a hectic parking lot. Tons of delicious food options packed into a small area means parking is tight around lunchtime.

I'm a bit mad at myself for not reviewing this place sooner!First let me just say, I love how friendly everyone here is, it has a family business vibe to it, maybe it is?Second, I love the QUANTITY, VARIETY, and QUALITY of the food you get here for what I believe to be a very reasonable price.I think honestly you can split one order between two people. That's what I do when i am trying to be more healthy, but sometimes I let my dark passenger out and just eat the entire order myself :)
