While the food was flavorful, the portion size was very underwhelming for the price. I ordered the Kalbi Tang and received only three small chunks of meat, which felt disappointing given the cost. The taste was good, but the value simply wasn’t there

My girlfriend and I try to come at least once a month because everything is always SO fresh and delicious. We always open with a serving of their piping hot fried dumplings and delectable dipping sauce. I always get my favorite, an extra spicy Chadol Jjampong that blows my mind every time I taste it. We always feel so welcome because the staff actually remembers us and treats us like family. Well worth the price and the 30 minute drive from home for us. We always talk about Okja...

My friend and I visited this restaurant after seeing reviews on TikTok.. being that we loooove Korean food we were excited to try. Our server had to be prompted to assist us by the food runner (I’d assume is the owner). While I’m not strict when it comes to service over all.. it would’ve been nice if she’d checked on us at least once or even appeared to be friendly. Anyway, my friend and I pay & leave but i forgot...
