I started eating immediately because I couldn’t wait! The pictures show the food missing a few bites! Haha! Delicious! The sautéed spicy pork belly was rich and perfect with rice. The cold noodles chewy and tasty. Old school decor felt just right. Nothing flashy. The food spoke for itself. I think the server is also the proprietor. Friendly and asked if we needed to replenish our banchai. I will be back.

I visited this place with two friends, and unfortunately, it was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had. The server was incredibly rude. Here are some examples of what happened.
When our food arrived, she placed the dishes in front of my friends but set mine down at the far end of the table, completely out of my reach. One of my friends had to pass it to me.
Later, she asked my friend if she wanted a box for her leftovers but didn’t ask me even though I also had food left. When I tried to ask for a box, she initially turned away as I was speaking. Although she did eventually respond, she seemed visibly annoyed by the request. When she returned with the box, she handed it to me with her head completely turned away in the other direction to not look at me.
I will not be returning. No one deserves to be treated like this.

As a Korean born and raised in Seoul, I found the dishes of this place the most authentic Korean in SF. Other upscale Korean restaurants in SF like San Ho Won and Ban Sang tends to be either ridiculously overpriced or only Korean-inspired rather than being Korean. This place, though not necessarily fancy, reminds me of the Korean dishes as I know them.

Mainly I come here for the stir fried beef intestines with veggies. Everything else we tried was good as well but haven't found a place that does the plate listed above in South bay better.

Very good Korean barbecue. Banchan is on point, and people come here for the Naengmyon. Once seated, a server comes over to the table. They are expecting you to know what you are doing. That's okay, because the food is quite good. Highly recommended if you are in the area, but would make a special trip if craving Naengmyon

Muguboka is a small Korean restaurant, but the food was clean-tasting and truly delicious. It was the best restaurant I visited during my trip. Although we had to wait for a table because it was so crowded during lunchtime, it was definitely worth the wait. The food also came out quickly after we ordered. If you visit San Francisco, I highly recommend eating at this place.
Since it's in an area with a lot of tourists, it took some time to find parking.
