Don't find Korean vegan options too often in the states, so always excited to try a place out when I do!
Ordered The Works Bibimbop made vegan and the Veggie Jhap Chae made vegan. Both were good with the Veggie Jhap Chae more flavorful. I can't handle much spice and didn't find anything spicy. Overall, not super filling, but was an enjoyable meal out.
It gets busy and thus can also get noisy. Would recommend trying this spot out.
