I ordered spicy pork stir-fry (제육볶음) and grilled mackerel (고등어구이), and they were absolutely delicious. The portions were so generous that I packed all the leftovers to take home. Even my child enjoyed the grilled mackerel, saying it tasted amazing. I'll definitely be back again next time.
Parking: I usually park in the restaurant's own parking lot during regular hours, and in the evening, I use the Mustard Seed Preschool parking lot next door. Thanks to this, I've never had any issues with parking.
Kid-friendliness: The owner was also very kind and had a great affection for children.

Parking: It's been a while since I had authentic Korean food and I was satisfied. I ate tofu kimchi, gyejang, and raw beef bibimbap. You can enjoy it deliciously.

I like vegetables, so I always ate ssambap, but today bone potato casserole was included in the combo menu, so I ate it with raw meat. I was surprised at how delicious it was, even better than the gamjatang I had in Itaewon before. I come here often, so I always knew that the side dishes were clean and delicious, but the raw meat was also great, and the bone-in potato casserole (what kind of potato it was, unlike the ones I usually eat, it felt like Korean potatoes) was so authentic that I want to give it a try when I invite guests to my house.

Food is fantastic! Nothing can beat especially spicy marinated raw crab and spicy chicken with kimchi. However, do not expect good service..

Yukhoe Bibimbap is truly my favorite menu item!! The first time I went to eat marinated crab, I saw Yukhoe Bibimbap on the menu, so I tried it and it was plentiful and delicious. As soon as I forgot about it, I remembered it and went back to eat it several times.
And the good thing about this restaurant is that even on weekends, you can get lunch at lunch price. So, if you eat the set menu that comes with stew and yukhoe bibimbap together, it's a lot of portions and it's really delicious. I was having a hard time looking for good yukhoe around here, but the yukhoe bibimbap here is really delicious, so be sure to go and try it!! And the parking lot is next to the restaurant, so parking is easy. I need to go and eat again soon😋

It tastes like Korean food in Korea! I tried cod stew, aged chicken stew, seasoned crab stew, raw beef, stir-fried octopus, and gamjatang, and they were all delicious!

After eating here, we both got enteritis. One person has not been able to eat properly for several days now.
The problem was that the main dish came cooked, but the seaweed stems and green onion kimchi that came as side dishes were discolored and dried out. They weren't fresh and they probably re-cooked them, but I think I got food poisoning after re-cooking them multiple times.
I remember when I went there a year ago, there was torn plastic mixed in with the kimchi stew and I didn't get any kind of apology. Same thing this time too
I used to visit this place often, but I won't go there anymore. Places that rehash things should be filtered out.

Since the pandemic began a few years ago, I gave it a 1-star rating and never visited due to a bad experience, but recently I visited twice after hearing that the stir-fried octopus was delicious. I ate the bad octopus and aged kimchi stew and it was very delicious. I like spicy food, so I ordered the bad octopus to be extra spicy. I think I'll definitely come here when I'm craving something spicy! (Two bowls of rice are just perfect for spicy octopus haha)
When I went, the server often came to the table and asked if we needed more side dishes and brought them new ones. However, in my friend's experience, there was also a comment that the server was not friendly. I think it was probably another server.
(Old ratings and reviews will be deleted. I hope the delicious food never changes!)

The side dishes were awesome omg like the salad was a big hit in our family. Literally everything was perfect, the buckwheat (barley?) tea, the meat, the rice even, like there's literally no better korean restaurant in this area.
awesome reception, I definitely vibed to the chritmas music and the atmosphere for a bit while eating, too.

Dinner combo. I had raw cod soup, octopus stone pot, and samgyetang. I ate the raw fish as soon as it came out, so I don’t have any pictures. It's been a while since I had a delicious home-cooked dinner 👍 It was really delicious. I'll come again❤️
