Not only does this restaurant have good food, but the staff is also very friendly. Above all, the food is made with sincere and high-quality food, so the taste is the best !! I would like to visit again. I highly recommend

7/10 - Food was delicious!★ Came here with my grandfather and sister as always. My sister adored the fried chicken and beef ribs, and I can vouch for her! They were very authentic and flavorful which left me with a great lasting impression. We were particularly *obsessed* with the stir-fried udon noodles— cooks did amazing on that dish!★ Service was average, not terribly slow but definitely not very quick. Didn’t really ruin the experience much at all.★ They have a TV broadcasting performances which my sister enjoyed watching whilst eating her food.˗ˏˋ ★ ˎˊ˗ In general, I loved the food at the restaurant but that was pretty much it— but that’s not a bad thing because I only dine at restaurants for the food :)

Used to love those place but ordered Dak chul Pan and Kim chi fried rice yesterday was bland and a bit funny and sure enough had diarrhea today. The quality has dropped consistently and yesterday was the lowest.

We were happy to enjoy some Korean food near by, and we were able to visit this place a couple of times and everything was delicious.However, last Sunday when we ordered take-outs, the soup tasted different than normally in store. It tasted sour and we thought it was just because the container. Me and my husband finished it and my son didn’t eat it .Both my husband and I suffered from diarrhea through Monday and Tuesday, and unsurprisingly, my son was fine.We suspect the take-outs were different than the in-store foods, or it has been sitting in the kitchen for days. Anyhow, I don’t think I would ever eat food from this place again, or at least never order take-outs from here.

Take out: Kalguksu tasted awful and the chicken smelled so badly to the point that I couldn't eat the chicken and soup. Gamjatang was on average according to what my husband said.I thought about not leaving a review several times, but it seemed like it wasn't the right time, so I'm leaving a review.As a Korean, it was a strange kalguksu that I had never seen or tasted. The chicken smell was so bad that I couldn't eat the chicken and threw it away. Of course I couldn't eat the soup and barely ate the noodles. I must have eaten half of the noodles. I can't eat pork or beef and since I moved far to the east, there were no Korean restaurants nearby, so I chose the nearby Pickering Owl. Should I think it's my fault for ordering kalguksu at Owl? Honestly, it was a very disappointing lunch.
