Terrible service overall. The waitress was extremely rude to my family and me, which made the experience very unpleasant.

The sign says they close at 10pm. We walk in at 9pm and they tell us they are closed. Won't come here again

Packed at 6pm on a Sunday night, but I dined solo so I got the last seat available!
Service was a bit slow considering the full house but was still very friendly! I ordered:
Yukhoe: Was so good and reminded me of Yukhoe back in Korea! Great portion size too (and they have a smaller size available).
Chicken Teriyaki: A tad bit too sweet for my liking but the chicken was so juicy and paired perfectly with this rice.
Perfect for comfort food anytime, anywhere

Excellent food and drinks. Best toppoki ever. Scallion pancakes and barbecue were top notch.

There wasn’t a single Korean — it was full of foreigners, and everyone seemed to be truly enjoying the food! Definitely a place that satisfies all tastes. Though… the bill was a bit of a surprise. 😅

Service was really good and the food was solid which surprised me. Busy on a Saturday night.
The plain outlook belies the neat and tidy inside. Went for the grill, tried both chicken and shrimp, and I had ordered the LA galbi as well but had the cook cook it for me so I could pack home. They do give you lettuce so you can eat it as a wrap, and helps you to cook on the grill (see video). Side dishes and the sauces were pretty authentic. Ssamjang (fermented soy paste that is mixed with other sauces for meat lettuce wraps) was a little different, more pale and liquidy. Didn't quite like that one. They do replenish the lettuce somewhat, but not the side dishes. The bowl of rice was good amount. The meat was marinated well. I had similar grilled chicken before but shrimp version was new to me. It was tasty and peeled well. The LA galbi was good too, but a little too little in terms of amount for the price (maybe the meat had shrink during cooking), so gave 4 for service. Lots of options on the menu in both appetizers and main dishes. The seafood pancake was quite thick and oily. Want to try other ones too, curious to see how authentic they are. They also don't have Korean desserts, unfortunately. So please plan accordingly. There is Hmart and Paris Barguette nearby (walking distance), FYI, if want something Korean for dessert as well.

This place is really special, give it a try! I’ve been here about 5 times from 2024-2025. The quality of the food is very good, everything I’ve had is always fresh and so fast. The staff is AMAZING. 2 people in my party have food allergies, the staff went through it order and customize what they could to fit our needs, then suggested other safe items. They even brought out special sauces for each person to have, it really was above and beyond service. Sometimes parties are large and it can get rowdy and loud but they’re always gray and accommodating no matter how busy.
