Amazing food! Great staff! We will absolutely be returning!
This place is so good. The Korean fried chicken baos are so good and gochujang sauce is amazing on the fries. The staff is incredibly friend and the music is great!
Food is tasty & reasonably priced! Nice atmosphere inside, dining area is a little small but suits the location fine.
