This was the worst experience ever and I am very weary of not eating at new gentrifying restaurants in Pilsen since I grew up here all my life. But I wanted to eat something new so I gave it a try. Food was absolutely terrible. There was mold on my shrimp in the Jjampong. Not only that, but I only got 3 shrimps and only one other piece of another meat, which I think was not worth buying this. On top of that, the noodles, I am so serious they tasted like regular pasta noodles and I was so upset at this. Dumplings were also not good. Terrible place and great reminder that when you go to Pilsen, to support local restaurants that are actually from Pilsen and of the culture, and that have had their establishments there for years.

Delicious food and a laid-back atmosphere. The bibimbap I had was satisfying and well-portioned. Service was attentive, friendly, and quick. The space was cozy and neat. I'm looking forward to coming back her and trying out their other stuff.

Wife wanted Yukgaejang, she picked this place based on reviews, she thought Yukgaejang was ok, I ordered KFC with garlic sauce and Seafood pancake, both were good. Service was ok, took them a while to get our food, then forgot plates etc. overall we thought it was an ok experience. The staff was friendly and nice for what it’s worth

Stopped in for a quick snack before a show at Thalia Hall. Great Korean tacos and dumplings. They also had those delicious Samanco ice cream sandwiches, which rules. Wish I had the chance to eat more food there, as it all looked great.

Fried chicken with the sweet and spicy sauce was very good, not too spicy. Kimchi fried rice was also very good, although a lot of rice. Dumplings are good as well.
Chill lowkey atmosphere

Ordered the sundubu, jjajangmyeon, KFC, and tteokbokki. Sundubu was extremely flavorful and delicious. KFC sweet and spicy was really good - not overall sweet or spicy. Would recommend to a friend.
