The fishjun dish did not meet my expectations given its price point.
Food is good. Owner is always rude and unfriendly now it’s almost comical - we order to go.

Today I got to try their Yook Gae Jang, Hot Beef Soup, and it turned out good. The worker, seemed like an owner, was very nice.

Got double mac salad on my combination plate. A single serving of mac salad probably won't be enough.

The food is great ? Pick up a pan of their chicken wings if you're going to a pot luck gathering. It's delicious and everyone will love them. The mochico chicken and the fish jun are good too.

It was ok. Got a mochiko chicken plate since a lot of people seem to have good things to say about it. It was pretty average. The portion size was decent for the price, but the taste wasn’t very memorable. The sides were as expected, except for the kimchee. It was very watery tasting. I tried my friend’s meat jun and that one tasted pretty good. If I ever return again, I would get the meat jun.
MOCHIKO CHICKEN!!!THIS HOLE-IN-DA-WALL IS DA LUNCH SPOT,AND THEIR PLATES ARE VERY HEFTY.

Good Korean food.
One of the food ordered was the tofu soup. Numerous times, we asked that the soup not be spicy or mild when we ordered. Upon tasting it at home, it WAS spicy (mild). This wouldn't be a problem if I was the one eating it but food was meant for someone who can't consume spicy foods. Aside from that, the food portion was very disappointing. Meat jun was decently sized but the fish Jun was extremely thin with only 4 pieces. A lot has changed in the past decade as far as pricing and food portions that this restraunt had to offer. We'll never come back here again.
Parking: Limited narrow parking stalls in front of restaurant.

Although the staff may come off as unpleasant and pushy at times, the local Korean style food is very good. Not the besr place to sit and eat but the take out plates are superb. Your guests will not be disappointed if you order the party platters. The Korean fried chicken wings are one of the best on the island.

Got two good plates of food here: one of the better meat juns we've had, and a plate of surprisingly good mochiko chicken. There could have been a bit more meat jun for the price we paid, but offsetting that was their deal to add four excellent mandoo to a plate for under $2. Veggies were good with a decent variety. Service was a bit underwhelming, but maybe she'd just had a hard day.
This is the 1st time I've had mix plate where the teri beef was juicy and full of flavor. If you haven't tried this place you should because it's super delicious.

Stumbled upon this spot while at the laundromat next door. A little pricey and the wait was a little long but the meat jun was worth it. The best meat jun I've ever had! *Chef's kiss*
Parking: Only a handful of spots out front.
Super 'ono plates. Great comfort food vibes and fun to swap out sides and proteins however you feel! Favorite sides are the cucumber kimchi, bean sprouts, and sweet boiled potato :)
