This is the only Korean place close to where we live so we decide to go and try .one old lady served us . We used some of the bbq sauce with the bbq .middle of our bbq time the server took all the bbq sauce and put them back at the cabinet with their lids, we were shocked to see and keep an eye on the server if she uses the same bbq sauce for other customers.after few minutes one couple came in for dine in and the server served the same bbq sauce which she took from our table . This was horrible and we decided to give very less tip $25 the server rejected the tip saying this is too less, minimum tip is 18% and all so we didn’t want to make big issue since we were with our cousin who recently moved here and gave 15% .
Please don’t give the same experience to other customers. Do improve your service and food quality so that other customers will definitely give you better tip . Worst experience ever

I got off the 7 train on my way home from the beach. First time here . Had the Sweet and Sour Fried Pork about $25 it was enough for 4 people and mostly meat and it was Delicious. Paid $3 extra for white rice. Had a Korean bottled beer for $7. On the side they give you separately potato, cabbage, fish, broccoli. The service was great , professional traditional friendly style. I’ll be going back soon .

Ordered Gopchang Soup for 60 bucks- got 3 container full of soup and about 20% gopchang in total. No side udon noodles or vegies, this place used to be ok, now its just going down the hill big time. What ashame.
Really enjoyed the food, although wouldn't say it's the cheapest Korean restaurant I've been to. The restaurant is also quite spacious. Re the service, the waitresses were slightly on the colder side, not overtly friendly or rude.

The rude old lady that works there ruined my birthday dinner. Payed over 50 dollars for bbq and a soup and she didn’t bring out lettuce or dipping sauces that usually accompany a bbq. She got annoyed when I asked for it and when we ran out of lettuce (there were only like 6 lettuce leafs) she had the nerve to snap at me that lettuce is expensive ! How rude!! So after spending 50 dollars for a bbq and soup she up charged us another 5 dollars for another preciois 6 leafs of lettuce. Ridiculous. My friend who treated me to my birthday meal didn’t tip her after her rude service and she wanted to know where her tip was. She can take it out of the 5 dollars she uncharged us. We will never be eating here again. Which is unfortunate because I love Korean food and this place is so close to my house I would eat here every day of the lady had not been so rude but there are other Korean places near by I can go to instead.

My experience of this place was wonderful I had lunch with my family and the family had barbecue. The barbecue was nice, the service is good, and the atmosphere can be noisy during meal times.

I dined at this lovely Korean restaurant and had a fantastic experience. The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which added so much to the overall dining atmosphere. The gamja tang dish I ordered was absolutely delicious - the flavors were rich and authentic. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for great Korean food served with a warm and friendly smile!"

To put it plainly, the food here is not good for the price requested. We ordered the Cha-Dolbagi (thinly sliced beef) and the Sandubu-jigae (tofu curd pot stew with seafood). If you order only one meat plate, they cook it in the back. Normally Im fine with this but the beef came out incrediblly overcooked with some pieces totally burnt. The tofu curd pot stew had fairly cheep ingredients. The tofu and seafood were clearly prepackaged/forzen. Additionally, the stew had this sour smell that made it unpleasant to eat.Normally Im fine with low quality food if it is reflected in the price. But these two dishes and 1 service of rice cost is $56 before tip (2024).The service was fine but not good. We were initially seated and serviced by a kind young lady and gentlmen. However, after the order we never saw from them again. Instead an older lady started to bring out food and got our order wrong. She later fixed her mistake. Then when it came to tipping, they were stringent that we tipped in cash.Overall, I will not coming back here again.

It tastes good, but the service needs to be improved! It takes 5 minutes to add tea! Others can be similar to themselves!
