A friendly neighborhood market atmosphere and a friendly man (owner?)..☺️?Jjajangmyeon, especially large-cut vegetablesThanks to the potatoes, it reminds me of old jjajangmyeon..Jjamppong is full of seafood, the broth is clear, and the spicy flavor is eye-opening ?. If I wasn't full, I would have eaten it with a bowl of rice..?✌️?The chicken is juicy on the outside and the salty and salty seasoning is delicious, but it is a bit disappointing that there is no chicken radish.. ?Tteokbokki was also served with plenty of vegetables and odeng...Chewy, spicy and sweet, but the fishy smell of oden is a bit annoying..A variety of groceries and cute goods that are rare in the U.S. are also on sale..

Delicious Korean food, great customer service, and very attentive. Just be advised that you might have to wait to get a table, since it's a small restaurant. All depends on when you come.

We had fried korean style chicken. It was amazing!! I know Raleigh has several korean style fried chicken places but this place is the best! If you ask, half fried original & half spicy sauce side, they serve like this. Very crunch crispy and not really oily which is very good!It is also very good amount of whole chicken.
It was okay. The flavor was good but they cut the chicken up and I didn’t like that I couldn’t tell what piece I was eating. For $30 I should be getting two whole breast thigh wings and legs 16 pieces of whatever you wanna put in my box is crazy. The cashier was very nice and I like the sauces but i won’t be back.

I love the spicy short ribs soup! It is truly spicy (what I exactly want), and the short ribs are amazingly great. Service is awesome too! Strongly recommend it and Will come again.

Before I begin the review Id like to say the experience was great. Seeing all the different things in the Asian market was fun. But the food was simply not good. I got the Korean Fried chicken hoping it would be good but there was no flavor or salt to speak of in the chicken and the garlic soy wings were too wet. Give it a try but maybe check out Bonchon as I will continue to go there.

While this place seems well loved by locals, we didn’t seem to have a grear experience. Stopped by for lunch and got the seafood pancake and black bean sauce noodles.Both were fairly underwhelming, but the black bean sauce had literally, NO flavor. Salty up front, but tasted like water on the end.Seafood pancake was similiar, didn’t have much taste. Dipping sauce lacked any backbone to it.We did get a refund for the noodles, so we can commend customer service.But otherwise, if you have never traveled outside of North America and haven’t much Korean culture experience. This place would hit the spot!Otherwise, it would be well worth trying other dishes.

Took my parents here when they were visiting because I’ve been craving some authentic Korean food lately. Everything was delicious, and the tteoboki was my favorite part of the meal - I haven’t been able to find any actually spicy tteoboki since coming back to the states but I was coughing on the spices in it here. I ordered sweet and sour Pork for my parents knowing they (mainly dad) don’t care for a lot of Korean foods that much, but even they enjoyed the 삼겹살 and mandu

Place is a small, "fast-casual"-style Korean restaurant with great, home cooked food. It's small with no table service, but it's fast, fresh, and probably the best Korean food in the Triangle when you're not looking for the full KBBQ experience. Spicy Pork stir-fry is the most legit I've had outside NYCs Koreatown.

They suck! Food tasted poor! Very disappointing! Asked for a special order and they totally refused to abide or accommodate!

Our kids invited us to join them for dinner here and I am glad that they did. It's not much to look at, being a small room in an Asian marketplace, but the food was fabulous! My wife ordered bibimbap and I got spicy squid over rice. Both were extremely delicious and very large portions. And, service was really speedy as well. I would definitely go back!
