This location is a hidden gem in Aberdeen that I feel doesn’t get a lot of credit. The food is so good makes me feel like I’m back home in Korea. The new soy wings they have are my current obsession along with the pickled jalapeños absolutely mouth watering. It’s a great spot to stop in for pick up or dine in and enjoy a cup of hot tea while you wait for food. The ladies and gentlemen that run this establishment always have the best service turning out quality dishes with a smile. Everything I’ve tried hits so stop on in after shopping at Ollie’s and find something that’ll be your new favorite meal

Food is tasty. Very casual, order at the counter and they bring your food to you. The ladies that now run it are very nice and welcoming. If you went a lot pre-covid it has changed for the better for sure. The new ventilation was a great move.

If you liked it years ago, you should like it even more now! Get a order of kimbap with your meal and enjoy!

Came in for the first time with a large work group and absolutely loved this place! They were very kind helping to recommend a good veggie option and it was absolutely delicious! The hot tea and side bar of kimchi, pickled radish and cucumber were such a special touch. Everything came out very quickly even with the large group. I left already talking about coming back.

Food is outstanding!!! Restaurant is clean. Service fantastic! The free extras such as rice tea, several different kimchi’s and marinated radishes were superb. Best Korean food in 35 years since Fort Rucker. We will definitely be back.

Been getting food from this restaurant for many years, and only recently started dining-in. As always, the food has consistent 10/10 taste, and compared to other sit-down/take out restaurants, the wait is not too long.

If you're looking for a place to sit down and really appreciate a soul warming meal, this is definitely the place.

They serve day/days old kimbap and everything is dumbed down for non Koreans. New management has certain better foods but kimbap went down in quality and taste. That was one of my favorites. Everything is a bit too sweet

If you miss the Korean food, it is worthy to visit. We ate seoluntang and deonjangjjigae, is was awesome. It's name is kimchi joy, but kimchi was not delicious than I expected, though.

This was the best tasting meal we have had in a long time. Incredibly authentic. The staff was so sweet and kind. My kids (9 and 11) asked to go again as we were leaving! We may live 5 hours away but we will be sure to be back!! 5 stars - 10 if we could!

This restaurant is a staple in Aberdeen. I came here and it was quickly packed at 12 pm. The place isn’t decorated and is very simple inside. There is a side bar where one can get marinated cucumber, pickled radish, and kimchi. Tea is also free. I ordered the pork bulgogi and it was delicious, albeit a bit over sweet. The portions are large and I left full. They have many different delicious Korean dishes, including the Korean fried chicken. I’d go here again!
