This place will catch you off guard. As far as I can tell the Korean barbecue is spot on. It was a flavorful exchange that was welcome on a lunch break. Would love to come back and try the fried chicken.

The ambience is weird due to the chicken place next door but over all the food was delicious!

Overall prices were fair and decent. We had a pleasant experience because of Yelps recommendation. The seafood pancake was excellent

Stumbled upon this hole in the wall and I was pleasantly surprised! The jjajangmyun and bulgogi were both authentic and delicious. I highly recommend both. I didn't have the Korean bbq, but the folks next to me did and it looked really good. I recommend this place to anyone wanting to eat Korean food.

Tried this place for the first time. We placed a carry out order for several different items. The food was hot and ready at pickup. We ordered the pork and beef bulgogi. We also ordered the spicy stir fry octopus, man doo and Kim bop. Everything was delicious and it had all the banchan sides you want. We will definitely be eating here again. Next time at the restaurant so we can sit at one of the grill tables.

Kum's Arirang is delicious! We have been several times. We always get the gal bi (steak) and jham bong (spicy seafood soup). Kum's is the best Korean food in Louisville! If you've never had Korean, get the ban Chan (veggies; some are spicy) that come with certain dishes. They have fried chicken and Cajun food too, but we can't venture away from the Korean at Kum's.

Friends and I stopped by this gem during a roadtrip craving some Korean food and also wanting to support local business. We all thought it was unique that this place offered Korean food AND fried chicken The fried chicken was FRESHLY FRIED. Worth a try We ordered the soon tofu seafood soup, galbi tang, Kimbop, and bibimbop. All truly surprising tasty especially for Louisville (we are from Chicago where there's a larger Asian population). The owner was very kind and made sure to refill our lovely banchans whenever she got a chance. Please consider stopping here and support your local business!

Prices were fair. I ordered the fried chicken, seafood pancakes, and jap chae. There was a stale taste to the seafood pancake. It tasted like left over fried food that was re-fried to serve. I would like it better if it doesnt have a sour taste to it. Overall the chicken was good.

First time eating at a place that served Korean bbq and southern fried chicken with biscuits. My lawd this place is a gem. Hole in the wall, family owned/operated. The food was delicious, service was fantastic and genuinely kind people.

The place has a sweet old Korean couple that manages and serves the food. The lady is always so kind and helpful and even helps with grilling the meats. The food is always delicious and comes with several side dishes. It is never busy and honestly has the best pricing for kbbq in Louisville!
Taste like dog or cat I had in South Korea. Good Location though. Nice area of town that's puts hot sauce on everything. Never know the difference.

I would not recommend eating here. The chicken wasn’t done, the fries was old, it tasted like they ain’t clean out the pop machine. I got sick after eating this. I’m MAD.

I haven't been back to this place in 3 years!! But....this place is still super amazing and has some of the best fried chicken in the city. They now offer jambalaya and gumbo so that was a very pleasant surprise! Seriously- where can you go to get fried chicken and authentic korean food in the city of Louisville? It is family owned and ran, they are the all really nice and even towards the end of the day willing to make me fresh fried chicken! Their diverse menu includes pork chops and sweet honey biscuits! This place is a must try if you haven't!

Lovely family owned business. Food is delicious on the Korean menu and the burger platter is awesome on the American menu. I have not had anything that I didn't like.

This place was recommended by a friend. We went on a Saturday night about 7:30. It wasn't crowded at all. The food was fantastic. Started with Korean pancake. Brought out sides with it. Everything was delicious. I had the spicy squid (not too spicy). It was wonderful! My husband had the pork His was good too. I would definitely recommend this place. Staff very consciences and attentive.
