Ordered a food delivery late at night. Food arrived in good package and no spillage. Food tasted authentic. Reasonable portions. Only wish the bowl of rice was bigger though. The free banchans were nice too. Kimchis were more sour than other korean places I have tried but I could handle it just fine.

I like that they are open late. I have been a couple times, the cheese corn and bulgogi fries are good. Lots of soju

Great service. Food was fine. Ambiance is generally fine but smell can be worked on as can lighting.

Actually horrendous Korean food. I’m writing this review as I’m sitting in the restaurant still. The sundubu jigae is just water with a block of tofu. I know this was by accident but the waiter also spilled it all over my bag and scarf.

They dishonestly charged me extra tip without asking, even though the poor service. They also charge credit card fee. Only got two banchan dishes—that’s the least I’ve ever had at a Korean spot. The fried calamari was weird, more like onion ring, and the tofu stew didn’t come with rice or a raw egg like the menu said. The only good thing is they’re open until midnight

Small tables, extremely cozy. Food is a bit salty. It’s great that they open late so there are options after 8pm in San Mateo however the restaurant is really small. They charge credit card fee which can be waived for paying in cash.

Funny how this place opened and it was empty at the beginning. Walking in I noticed it at night while driving back home. Definitely coming back to taste more food
