Been here a few times, and while the food is just okay, my first visit completely ruined my impression of this place. The waiter left us standing awkwardly at the door even though several tables were clearly empty. When we politely asked if we could be seated, he simply said “no” and told us to wait outside. That level of service is unacceptable for any restaurant.
Although he was more polite during my later visits, that first experience spoke volumes about how poorly the place handles customers. Consistency and basic courtesy matter - and unfortunately, this restaurant failed both.

They applied automatic gratuity without telling us (<6 people). We ended up paying an extra 18% tips of the total amount that already included tips.

Kimchi jigae is so small and totally looks different with that on the menu.

The food quality ranges from decent Korean dishes to some of the worst I’ve ever had. The fried chicken is especially bad. The waitstaff isn’t the most welcoming unless you’re Korean. I visited twice. The first time, I was with Korean friends and spoke Korean, and the service was excellent. The second time, I was the only Korean in the group, everyone else being non-Koreans and the treatment was noticeably different.

The receptionist of this store is a complete racist, if you want to be discriminated against, as long as you are not Korean, this store is the best choice!

This is the worst restaurant I have ever eaten, the attitude of the waiter and the front desk is very bad, and the appetizers are not served. When I asked about the progress of the food, they said directly that they were busy. Please cancel it for me. Don't come unless you want to spend money on suffering.

It's a good place for dinner after class, especially if you want to have some Korean food. Service was attentive and had many choices on the menu. Average food quality with reasonable price for students.

No where it says that there is no dine in until 4:30pm. Plus there were people eating at tables so like make it make sense? I’ve been here before and I was surprised to hear this. Hopefully next time they can clear up communication.

The food is great, it’s just a little cramped but cozy.

Awful service, the waiter got my order wrong and then came back out and told me to listen to him better next time. The food is mediocre and does not justify the attitude of the waiter.
Edit: I'd like to acknowledge that I both spoke my order and pointed to the exact item on the menu that I wanted to order, and that the waiter spoke through a muffled mask in a loud rush hour restaurant. I acknowledge that it was not 100% clear what the waiter said back as a result, and would ask for clarification in the future. I also think that the waiter should take card to speak clearly and not blame this miscommunication on a lack of close attention. I agree that clear communication is a shared responsibility 🙂

Awful service. I asked to be moved tables, and they basically ignored me and made a vague gesture. When I moved, they didn't assist at all in helping move anything.

really really poor service! we even have to ask for the tissue for 2 more times, and a 18% tip is required. So disgusting. Don’t come.
