Came w family during lunch hour on a Monday, service was on point even w one server w 7 other tables being served. And to top it off, the food-just excellent w flavors to bring back memories of my childhood back in Korea. The portions were reflective of the price so no surprises…, perfect match to satiate my and family’s appetite.

Second time I’ve been here both received poor service and food that is not from a typical authentic Korean restaurant. Ordered Bulkogi with Ssam and the Ssam included iceberg lettuce which is not what real Korean dishes include. I explained to the owner that all othe Korean restaurants don’t serve iceberg lettuce it should contain red leaf lettuce. He told me I was wrong lol I’m Korean and been to thousands of Korean restaurants and not one of them served iceberg lettuce. They also didn’t give us jalapeño, fresh garlic, and dweng jong. I had to ask for this as well. A couple months later I went in to order just a cup of Kimchi and was given a table spoon full of Kimchi in a small clear container and was charged 5.49. I explained to them they usually give me a cup and not a small side dish container. They told me it was going to be 20 dollars I said fine. They charged me 16.39 more so I gave hem 16.40 and the lady shut the cash register without giving me my penny lol. They came back with the cup of Kimchi that was not filled to the top. They absolutely lost me as a customer. I live in Monterey and this is the closest restaurant to me but now will make the drive to Marina where they have REAL AUTHENTIC KOREAN RESTAURANTS and the service is excellent!

Fish was mangled looking like most of it got stuck to the grill or whatever instrument was used to cook the fish. Secondly, ordered got messed up and missing the side dishes that come with the dinner and had to send my kid to retrieve the part of the missing order. Lastly, very stingy with side dishes. Much tastier Korean food in Marina and San Jose. Won't be eating food from here again.

So far this has been the only place in town (Monterey, Seaside, Pacific Grove) that we have gone back to more than once, actually, we’ve been there at least four or five times already. Some of the best Korean food I’ve ever had. And cannot recommend it enough!

The dol sot (stone pot rice) items are very delicious! The hot stone pot with some oils added creates the best crispy rice I’ve ever had. The kimchi jun (pancake) is also very crispy, tasty, and delicious! Great food and service!Vegetarian options: Some dishes are vegetarian and some can be made vegetarian. Just tell the owner what you can eat and what not, she will tell you the menu items available. Very friendly!

We have been there a few times and the staff is always friendly and the food is quite authentic and delicious. The bibimbap is a must together with the tofu soup and korean pancake, they were very delightful. Service was quick and efficient, thumbs up for the extra side dishes.
