Amazing food! I love all of the vegan/vegetarian options. The jeju buns are one of my favorite things. It’s a cozy and warm space.

I came here because my first choice was not available. To my surprise I had the meal of my life. All the dishes are meticulously prepared with nutrition, taste and presentation in mind. The owner of this restaurant should be elevated to a James Beard award. Definitely will come back every week!Vegetarian options: The sweet potato glass noodles are to die for!
Everything about this place is amazing. The food is always delicious and filling. I love it.

Not sure what has happened to this place. It used to be great. Tonight they got my order wrong, despite the correct order being written on the container lid. And the bibimbap was terrible. Another reviewer mentioned the overwhelming salt level and I experienced the same. The veggies were a tasteless lump, and even if they had been well-pickled, the sauce would have overwhelmed the delicate flavor. Really disappointing.

We have been sampling the menu here for over 10 years and have never been disappointed. It's your lucky day when you get to eat cuisine of this caliber in a cozy, affordable neighborhood eatery. Do not skip dessert!Vegetarian options: As an omnivore, I'm loving the locally sourced, organic meats and poultry if that's what I choose to order. But when I want vegetarian food, or I'm dining with vegetarian or vegan friends, SFDC has enough delicious options to delight everyoneDietary restrictions: Chef Anna Goree and her terrific staff will ensure your needs are met while your food stays delicious!

Why did it take so long for me to step in? I am now well nourished. I look forward to returning to dine in. I am needing more plants in my diet and will certainly become a regular. I am becoming a dumpling fan and Grandma's are the best I've had. The Lotus Bowl was hearty with a wonderful array of flavors. The pistachio cake a satisfying treat to end the meal.
We were so full last night but we just had to come here !! This spot is closed on Sunday’s and only open for four hours !! Such a cute little place with authentic Korean food ! The owner was so sweet !! She’s super cute and really has a secret gem of a place .. please come here and show this place some love . We got there at 8 right before they close and got the last table . They treated us with love and respect and didn’t hurry us out at all .. they have a lot of vegan options too !! We got the kimchi pancake and the bibimpap bowl .. and ended it with the coconut lemon cupcake … omg so good ?!!!

Excellent bowls, burritos, and other vegan options. Can get very busy as it's a popular local spot!

Excellent, authentic Korean food in Takoma park. Ordered kimchi pancake, side of rice and tteokbokki and everything was prepared fresh with high quality ingredients. For example rice was a good mix of white and brown rice and I was surprised my elementary school child ate it. I asked tofu side which wasn't on the menu and staff was so quick accommodate the request. I love the inside and outside of the restaurant- full of art, flower and plants. I highly recommend this place if you want to try Korean food out.
