Try the pork ramen — so good!

The owners are lovely and hospitable!!! I loved everything we got off the menu... This is coming from a girl who lived in Asia for years! This place is great!!! Not to mention One Piece was playing on the TV! If you know, you know!! The Kimchi fries are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Of course the Ramen, teriyaki chicken and rice, and gyoza were great too but try those fries!!! I'll be back to try the chicken tenders too!! (Not a local)

Nothing fancy just simple but flavorful food. The chicken was juicy the pork had the right about of grilling. The Korean corn was full of cheese was sweet.

Our food was delicious, we both got the chicken teriyaki and gyoza. Gyoza was just ok, but the chicken teriyaki was service was good, no complaints. Ambiance is kinda just meh, but I'll say I love that they play anime.

It was our first time eating there today, and I really enjoyed it. I'd definitely go back. There's a few things on the menu I want to try. What in the heck is a Korean corn dog? I don't know, but I'll have to go back and find out. It was a little pricey, but it felt like it was worth it. Very satisfied.

Great ramen. The pork was delicious! Remember when you order the ramen to add the condiments they have at the table for you. The sesame seed oil makes it all so much more taste, and adding a bit of spice gives it a good kick. Experiment and find the right amount for your perfect ramen flavor. The Korean corn dog only had a small piece of sausage at the very end of the stick. Don't expect it to be the whole thing like an American corn dog.Overall a good place to try!

Definitely will be coming back here again. I got the spicy chicken tenders & the beef skewer, as well as the chicken skewer. All EXCELLENT! My friend got the spicy corn dog & kimchi fries - he loved both dishes. Located where the old Five Guys used to be, foodies will appreciate the availability of the genuine flavors this restaurant offers its patrons. In addition to the items mentioned, there are three different types of ramen offered (with homemade bone broth for the pork, chicken, and beef brisket) The owner Scott was extremely pleasant & please give his restaurant a try. Let's make him busy!!!

I need to start this out by saying that I am half Korean and grew up eating authentic Korean food. So when I go to a restaurant, I am typically weary of trying Korean dishes because they usually aren't right. Everything about this place was fantastic! We met the owner, Scott, who was helpful and kind. The Bulgogi was perfect! Just how mom makes it! The KFC(Korean Fried Chicken) was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I like a little more spice than the sauce afforded but they had chili oil on the table so that took care of my needs. I am most definitely going back and bringing more friends to share the good eats!
