Just to get the good things out of the way I was impressed when I walked in at night.

Now the bad, there was very little to pick from on the menu
The sandwich I ordered my buns were burnt and the flavor was off
WAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY over priced for the 3 items I ordered, my total was $54 for the 3 items, and was disappointed with all but 1 item which was the ramen.
The staff was nice but not very attentive they didn’t check on me often but when they did they were overbearing and overwhelming.
I WILL NOT be back!! It would have been cheaper and tasted better plus wayyyy more things to choose from if I would have went to Taco Bell. I wouldn’t even feed this to my dog.

Where to start, oh my goodness. Opening the door to this quaint little bistro and hearing k-pop playing, I knew I was in the right place. The staff was incredibly nice and attentive from the very moment we entered. We had made a reservation beforehand so we were seated quickly. The waiter recommended the beef and kimchi dumplings......and they did not disappoint. The dumplings had so much flavor, hands down, best dumplings I have ever had. Now for the main course we had the "Korean-ish BBQ" Bulgolgi. The beef was cooked to perfection, smoky, sweet, savory, juicy, and tender......chefs kiss. Even the banchan was delicious! We finished it all off with the homemade strawberry cheesecake ice cream, which was the perfect ending to this delicious dining experience. To say we cannot wait to go back is an understatement. I understand the menu changes weekly and I can't wait to try the korean fried chicken!
So if you are on the fence about going to this place, go, go now, it's incredible!

Gem among the downtown Quincy options. Cook/owner often comes out to greet his patrons

I ordered Bibimbap and it came in a hot bowl that was sizzling so all the rice on the bottom was burnt so I couldn’t even finish it. It also didn’t taste like the true Korean Bibimbap that I’ve always had. I also ordered a side of Kimchi which was homemade but it didn’t taste like true Kimchi. I also asked for Korean beer and was given a few options but when I got it the beer was Japanese. When the bill came they charged for the side of Kimchi and hot sauce that was supposed to come with the Bibimbap. I mentioned all this and the waiter didn’t even acknowledge it and/or apologize. He just took my CC to pay the bill. I don’t recommend this place to anyone because it’s definitely not an authentic Korean restaurant.

We stopped in for a date night after hearing good things from a friend and everything far exceeded our expectations. While small, we loved the intimate and eclectic atmosphere. We started with the bao buns and the bulgogi kimchi fries and both were incredibly flavorful. We shared the bulgogi bibimbap which did not disappoint. Our absolute favorite was the bread pudding and vanilla bean ice cream with a vinegar berry sauce. The flavors were incredible and lingered for hours! Hands down one of the best meals we have had in the region.

The staff and owner are so unbelievably kind, they're a talkative bunch and the food is to die for. I had the katsudon ( wonderful, flavorful and piping hot) and the ice cream "3B's". (which was made in house! ) It was all so amazing. I loved it and I'm certainly coming back.

Parking: Lots of parking available in the area and the surrounding streets. There are parking lots and tons of parallel parking.

We stopped in to have dinner. Seated very quickly and menu had a decent selection. Looks like they have a different menu each week. Decent selection of drink options. Our meals were very good, had a chicken ramen and lettuce wraps. Prices were decent considering costs now days. Nice intimate restaurant. Currently the main road is under construction, but soon will be easier to access when done.

I wanted to like this, but what we ordered did not taste accurate.

Most tteokbokki I've had in Korean restaurants comes with a red gochujang sauce, but this one was colorless, didn't really taste anything like that and was pretty bland. It also usually comes with fish cakes. Instead we ordered it with pork belly, which to be fair was cooked and seasoned well.

The ramen was closer to what I've had in Japanese restaurants with a soft boiled egg, scallions, noodles, chicken, and hearty broth. But it also included some herb I've not ever had in ramen (maybe basil?) that took away from everything else

I recognize Quincy doesn't have a large Asian population and it makes sense to tailor your dishes to the tastes of your customers, but I think they took too many liberties with these dishes and those who are familiar with them will be put off. And with the prices charged here I can't honestly recommend them

That said, the meat was very flavorful. I might consider trying this place again when they're serving kbbq

Great service, great food, and cocktails. I had the Korean fried chicken thighs, and my wife had the wings. Both were very tasty. Also enjoyed the lettuce wraps.
