When they first opened this place was great. But the past 3 times I’ve tried to come here, I arrive and they’re closed for various reasons even though they’re “open” online.One time they didn’t have a chef and couldn’t open. Another time they left an illegible note on the door and It was locked. Today, there’s simply nobody inside and the lights are off during opening hours. It’s unfortunate because this place was so good and had such a great vibe. But now? Seems like they’re really unserious and may need to close down and try again with new management.

My friends and I were in the area and we stopped by for a dinner. The restaurant was empty but slowly started filling up when we were eating. The restaurant had two people on staff - a bartender and one server. Even the place was empty, it was apparently that she was overwhelmed. She was very sweet and nice but barely came by to refill our glasses, take our order, or to get her attention.The restaurant was beautifully decorated and had a fun moody vibe going on. We waited almost 8 minutes before we could be seated even though the restaurant had only 6 people on one table eating at the time. It another another 15 minutes before we got the menu. We were told that they didn't have any shrimp that day which was very disappointing.We ordered chicken bites, soft drinks, 2 cocktails and a veggie BOM Noodle to share. My friend enjoyed their cocktails and thought it was well made but on the pricier end. They would come back to take advantage of their happy hour.The chicken bites was okay. I asked if they made using thighs or breast and they said breast. However, it was made with thigh meat and I am not a fan of that. The sauces were delicious though. The BOM noodles was tasty but I wish it had shrimp in it. It was filling and not heavy or overly greasy. My other friend ordered a bibimap and thought it was okay. They had just returned from Korean so, I would take their opinion with a grain of salt.

We had a reservation for the restaurant (and got text messages asking to confirm it) only to get there and find out it was closed. Had to scramble to find a new place on a Friday night. Very disrespectful of the owners.

Lovely spot to sit down and have a good taste of Korean food. The atmosphere is nice. The tteoboki was delicious and the fried chicken was savory and sweet. Love it! Would love to come back here next time!

Good restaurant. The cocktails are nice. The Bipbimbap was good but did not fully meet my expectations. But I still recommend this place.

BOM noodle was delicious, a little bit oily and small portion size but loved the flavor profile. Noodles had really good texture as well, highly recommend with pork.Fried chicken was kind of like crunchy KFC style, sauce came on the side and the spicy one was a lot better than the other. Fries were thin and well cooked.Great experience would definitely come again.

Absolutely awful date night location. We didn’t finish any of the plates (mushroom, black bean noodles, bulgogi sliders). Mushrooms were hard to chew, the “green oil” was just under seasoned and didn’t mix well with the cheap truffle oil. The dish ended up having no flavor. Bulgogi sliders were the best but cheap American cheese and lack of spice in the bulgogi made me feel like I was eating cafeteria food. Black bean noodles same story, no seasoning. Service was poor even when the place wasn’t half full on a Friday night. Korean food should be tasty- this was a poor imitation.

I love Korean food and this place looked like it was gonna be so good but it actually kinda sucked! The two things I got had zero resemblance to Korean food. Fusion can be great but this was not executed well. The cilantro pork belly was supposed to be sous vide but it was still tough. It also came with a bunch of rosemary that overwhelmed the other flavors. Idk why they would do that cause rosemary and cilantro are a very unpleasant combo in my opinion. The noodles were more enjoyable but still like something you would get at a generic asian restaurant for half the price. Don't waste your money!!
Service was very attentive and welcoming. I enjoyed the grilled mushroom from the appetizer. The fried chicken wings were crispy outside and tender inside, but lack of the flavor. The main dish Bulgogi was a bit dry. The pork belly was pleasantly braised. I just wish it more tender.

Food was very delicious. The cheesy dduk was like the best Mac and cheese except with rice cakes. They use non traditional herbs in a subtle way. The dduk had some dill on it that I enjoyed. Then the bulgogi also had a few sprigs of rosemary that gave the dish a slightly new character. The serving of the bulgogi was exciting, BTW. The cast iron sitting on top of a live flame was so cool! And it allowed the bulgogi to get some great maillard. Only tiny negatives were, they were understaffed and there was no AC. But I'm not holding those things against them. Would definitely return!
