I had such a lovely experience here. I wasn’t sure what to get but they provided me with recommendations and even made vegetarian accommodations for me :) the food was literally amazing! I got sundubu and it was so fresh and comforting. I can’t wait to come back here, it’s definitely a new favorite!

My family and I have visited this restaurant twice now; once in May 2023, and another in August 2023. The first time, I was taking a tour of the CU Boulder campus with my family in preparation for my daughter's Fall Semester classes. We ran into this restaurant and decided to give it a try. The food was outstanding and left a good enough impression to make us return several months later.Living in Las Vegas, we get to experience an enormous amount of Korean BBQ restaurants so going to any Korean restaurants will make us skeptical at first because we're so spoiled in Vegas. But I was astonished when trying this restaurant and how good it was. Not to mention, the service was amazingly fast for having minimal staff on board. We ended up ordering the Bibimbop, Dduk Bog Gi, Kimchi Stew w/Rice, Kimbop, Dumplings (Mandoo), Red Bean Steam Buns, and Kimchi between both visits. If I lived in the area, I would definitely return for a third and even fourth visit to try other things on the menu. But, I'll just leave it to my daughter to try those other items for me.There are a few items I wish this restaurant would serve...one being Kalbi...this is my favorite meat dish of all time. Also, Meat Jun...this would be an easy dish to serve for those quick bites and those having late night munchies. And lastly, Kimchi Pancakes...this is one that you would want to eat anytime in the day. I understand that they can only serve food based on popularity and demand, so I'm hoping that enough people would request these items - you won't be disappointed.At first, the location of this restaurant was a little challenging to find, and the idea of heading down in the basement was a little head scratching at first, but all-in-all, the food was good and worth the visit. Highly recommend this place to everyone.

Really nice small spot for Korean food. I think there was only one grain or rice left... So good!

It's such a treat to eat at this hidden gem. I hit myself on the head everyday for not knowing about this tucked away Korean spot so close to school --I would've saved so much time and gas driving all the way to Aurora. Support locally owned!!
Guess if you're stuck on campus and craving Korean food. Otherwise pass. 10 bucks for instant ramen? Pass.

Food is good, but they charge 4 dollars for one bottle of soda. Wish they put the price on the menu.

Best Korean food in town, wonderful staff that whipped up fresh "stir-fried rice cake," tteokbokki ()! Yummmm!

Love this place on the hill. It is hard to find a place that has a Rice cake entree, which are my favorite. Great food! Always a winner. Love the food stalls so I can get in and out pretty fast.
