Walked in Sat Oct 5th at 11:45 am (well past their opening time) and a worker curtly said they were closed with no explanation (but could hear and smell food cooked in the kitchen). Completely wasted my time coming there. Very strange and poor customer relations.

GrubHub menu is not up to date, went there for Oxtail soup and it did not exist. They overcharged me for the food (I got the firecracker pork, which was $12 on the menu, they charged me for $15) and to top it off, the Arizona Tea was $2.63 instead of $0.99-- I am devastated and betrayed.

THIS IS NOT KOREAN FOOD! Despite having Korean branding and no indication of being a fusion restaurant, they are not a Korean restaurant. The owner and chef are not Korean and the food was the worst “Korean” interpretation of food we’ve had. Ridiculously overpriced, with rude snarky employees. Flies everywhere, and not clean. Had to throw out four dishes after a few bites, was extremely unappetizing.

Was takeout restaurant

Ambiance: 2.75/5
There’s some wear and tear here and there. But signs were pretty helpful and I wouldn’t mind eating here.


Pretty decent takeout food. Rice was right consistency and chicken was moist! Kimchi and seaweed salad were decent as well.

Wow: -0.25/1
The workers say the owner needs to do a better job ordering food cuz lots of things were out when I tried to pick my veggies

Total Score = (2*AM + 5*FOOD + WOW)/0.8

I've been coming here for a few years and I used to LOVE this place. All the food was super delicious and great quality. Over the last year the quality of food has significantly declined. I keep trying it hoping for a better experience but I am consistently let down. I'm so bummed because I won't be ordering from this restaurant again. I'm done.

The pork was dry and chewy, they substituted what tastes like CANNED corn for broccoli and the rice was definitely not toasted. Also, the HOM sauce is given in smaller containers and definitely seems watered down. What a bummer, HOM! You used to be my favorite quick service restaurant.

The food was actually good, I didn’t expect it to be!
I took a veggie bowl with Korean style pickled vegetables. It was very filling, so the portions are big. The vegetables tastes great and seemed freshly made. I would definitely come again

This place has fallen off. The meat was as dry and tough as beef jerky. It also tasted very little of korean steak/bulgogi. The rice was old and semi dried out. There is no more fountain drink dispenser. I won't be back as I have already given them several chances. It's been on the decline for years.

Parking: Very limited, causing you to have to park far away most of the time.

Kid-friendliness: A bunch of homeless around, though

Wheelchair accessibility: Nothing inhibiting wheelchairs

This place is now my new favorite place!!! In all of San Jose.
I would have pictures, but I didn't even take any breath after just swallowing for the last 20 min. The different pallets needed to absorb all the taste bud teasers are great!!! If you think Chipotle can't see this place at all, ...Owner didn't charge this fat kid for extra meat. Thank you, Sir. I will definitely be back

This place allows you to choose protein and 3 sides ...I tried barbeque chicken with 3 sides. If you like spicy food this is a good option. Similar concept to the Chipotle bowl

This hidden gem has huge portion with reasonable prices. I've tried all the proteins except shrimp and they're all amazing. Gochujang is great too!
