The Tteok Bokki with ramen and cheese was great and the portion was HUGE! It was enough for several people or several meals. Slightly spicy, and good flavor. The Ganjang ( Glazed Soy & Sweet ) Chicken was okay. I liked the sauce, and it probably would have been better fresh at the restaurant instead of getting it via door dash. Not bad, but very thick and heavy breading. I would definitely try again and try more items.

The dining room has a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, and the menu is large enough that there is something for almost everyone, whether you are looking for a hearty soup, sizzling rice dish, or something to share with a group. It feels like the kind of neighborhood restaurant...read full review
