Fried rice was SUPPER YUMMY!!! but.. not to much shrimp, I ordered shrimp fried rice. Seafood noodles was too basic with lack of flavor and very small amount of seafood!. Great service.

My fav Korean restaurant on island. Complimentary hot tea amongst being seated and super fresh Korean dishes that make you crave returning for more.

Today I got to try the young summer radish buckwheat noodle and I was not disappointed, it was very tasty. The noodle being so chewy made it even better. The service could not have been any better as they were so helpful and friendly.

Ordered delivery but not disappointed! The portion sizes were really big and both items were delicious! The Kimchi stew actually came with rice but I didn’t think it did so I ordered extra. The Cheese Tteokbboki was more than enough for two people and we finished it the next day because there was so much … I would order this for more than two people or if you’re wanting 4 meals out of it! Both dishes had so much flavor!

Been several times to Ireh now and it's a reliable home style cooking spot. The ladies working are nice and very efficient and the food is good. Everything we have tried from kimbap to jigaes to pajun are all tasty. The restaurant seems popular too as it's always fairly busy whenever we've gone.

My co worker told me about this place so I decided to try it with my other. We were seated immediately for the 2 of us. The restaurant was full during dinner hours. The service moved smoothly. We got 4 items that was ok. The fried rice was under seasoned and not fried from the wok. The seafood pancake was undercooked, it was not crispy along the middle. After placing it in my air fryer it was great. Bulgogi stir fry was ok, I thought the sauce would be sizzling on the hot place. It tasted more of a steamed taste compared to sizzling. Chef was being very safe that night. Overall it was ok

Not bad.. really big portions
It's located right next to Walmart, so you can stop by Walmart to shop, leave your car there, and come across the street to eat and then go to Walmart to pick up your car.
I wanted to eat cool radish noodles, so I went to Ire Bunsik, which I had been looking at for a few days, but the radish noodles seemed to be a summer-only product. First of all, it's December now, so there are no radishes.
They asked me to choose between bibim naengmyeon and mulnaengmyeon. So I chose Jjolmyeon.
Hawaii's prices are the second highest in the United States and one of the top five most expensive tourist destinations in the world, so comparing prices with Korea would not be very meaningful. Just 3 days after arriving in Hawaii, I gave up comparing prices. Haha. Even American tourists say that the prices in Hawaii are crazy. Haha.
Jjolmyeon tastes like the basics.
I personally liked it because the portions were generous and included a lot of vegetables.
The amount of vegetables and noodles was not small, so I was satisfied in terms of quantity.
The overall taste of the sauce is 2% less than that of restaurants that use Korea's secret sauce, but I like the doneness of the noodles and the neat appearance of the bowl.
Even in Korean restaurants, there are many places where Chinese ladies don't even cook the noodles properly, but the noodles at this place were cooked surprisingly well, which was really nice.
The staff is friendly and the restaurant is clean.
There are a lot of customers and the white customers at the next table seem to be ordering galbi (LA galbi), so I'm thinking of trying cold noodles and galbi tomorrow or the day after.
Enough intention to visit again.
After a return visit, I ordered stir-fried pork.
It's not too spicy and has just the right amount of spiciness, so I can eat it without any worries until I finish it.
On my third visit, I tried Jjolbokki.
Hmm... I felt like the chewiness of the rice cake was disappointing. It would have been nice if the rice cakes in Tteokbokki had been more chewy, but it was disappointing that the rice cakes were a little undercooked and lacked some chewiness.
By the time I finished eating it, I felt like the chewiness of the rice cake was getting weaker as the food cooled, which was even more disappointing.
The fourth is the watercress challenge
Of course, it's not mechanical cold noodles.
It was refreshing and delicious.
Vinegar is provided separately, but it's sour that you don't need to add vinegar, which is probably because the radish kimchi on top of the cold noodles is very sour. It is more than twice as sour as the radish kimchi served at cold noodle restaurants in Korea. lol
Today is odeng soup and kimbap.
The odeng soup had a strong hondashi taste, but it tasted just like what you get in Korea.
I ate well. ^^
Today is LA Galbi
Among the LA ribs I ate in Hawaii, this menu had the best tenderness and softest taste. In general, it was softer and tastier than the galbi or LA galbi I ate at Han River, a top Korean restaurant in Hawaii. Highly recommended. It suits my taste so well that I finished it off neatly. ^^
I came to eat binnaeng for dinner,
Oh, the radish kimchi that I had eaten a few days ago was again used as a garnish, so I grabbed some and tried it just in case. It was delicious, not sour at all and just moderately sweet.
