This restaurant does not honor their promises. They have a game where if you hit the timer at 10 seconds they remove one item off the bill. I won it and they refused to honor it. Instead they offered to give me a soda. ๐

The jjajangmyeon was good, but I was full from the naengmyeon, so I only had three bites. I took it home and my mom finished the rest, so I hope to actually have a whole bowl of jjajangmyeon next time.

Tried it out today. The service is great. They do a good job scanning the room and are ready to help if you need anything (utensils, more side dishes, ordering). However, the food (tofu soup ์๋๋ถ, ohsam bulgogi ์ค์ผ๋ถ๊ณ ๊ธฐ, gamjatang ๊ฐ์ํ, tangsooyook ํ์์ก & side dishes ๋ฐ์ฐฌ) are bland and frankly tastes bad ๐ The ddolsotbibimbab ๋์ฅ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ tastes pretty decent though, so that is my recommendation if you decide to visit. The restaurant itself is small so if you are a group of 5+ it will be crowded to sit together. This is just for your information and did not affect my rating. The atmosphere was ok. They have popular songs on at an appropriate volume so that you can hear each other and can drown out the other tables. The tables and utensils were clean when we arrived. I just wish the food was good at a place that serves food that comes with a price. Would I recommend to a friend? No. Maybe I will give it another try in a few months to see if the food improves. If any improvements are seen I will update this review. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Donโt go to this place! Ordered the pork bone soup and the meat tastes VERY UNFRESH. It is not only frozen ( which i know most places use) but also stinky. I can tell they try to use spices to cover it, but as I eat the meat between the bones, which is harder for spices to sink into, there is a strong smell coming out of it. I ended up returning the dish.

Not much kimchi or beef in the kimchi beef fried rice. Not much flavor either, just tasted like oil and rice with a bit of bland ground hamburger.

THIS IS THE BEST KOREAN RESTAURANT IN ITHACA HANDS DOWN. I love this place so much. The women who works here is also so sweet. The menu is so great and diverse. The food is well spiced and actually spicy!! Please come if you like real Korean or Chinese food. Itโs a comfort spot for sure! Jayook Kimchi is my fav dish here.

What a gem! The service was fast and the atmosphere was quite cozy. The Hot Stone Pot Bibimbap was amazing, as well as the Jajangmyeon. The Spicy garlic fried chicken was crispy and flavorful. The portions were very filling, and we felt very welcomed. The staff members were attentive. The server at the restaurant was very kind and stopped to talk about Ithaca and the colleges nearby.We loved the assortment of Korean/Chinese fusion dishes! It felt very homey. It was just what we needed. Will visit next time we stop by! Highly recommend.
