Really good Korean food. Very generous portions and lots of delicious side dishes.

The Kimchee is super delicious. They give you side dishes you usually don't see at other places like the tofu and pancake.

The lunch specials look like great deals. The prices are fair

The owner and wait staff are attentive and super friendly. Lots of people from different backgrounds eat here, which is cool.

Whenever I'm feeling very hungry, I come here and get the kalbe (beef short ribs). It's the most delicious kalbe and largest in portion size I've ever had at a Korean restaurant. I'm Korean and I come here a lot.

Just had the chicken and spicy pork bulgogi. They were both excellent. I will definitely be frequenting this place more now that I know about it

Excellent food, good portions and affordable prices. Everything was delicious, including even the sides I didn't necessarily know what I was eating. Staff was hardworking and the quick and thorough cleanliness I saw in the dining areas creates confidence of how the unseen kitchen area is kept. I was traveling, but if I lived nearby I would be eating here often.

I saw online they served Korean Seafood Pancake. I placed my order To Go and the place was packed.
Everyone was enjoying themselves and were talking about how good their meal was.
I absolutely LOVED the Seafood pancake.
I will be back to try other items on the menu!

This place blew my socks off. The portions are huge, the side dishes were so good, the food was amazing and the prices were reasonable. The lady who is serving is fast, courteous and nice. The Korean fried chicken was perfectly done with juicy meat and crispy outside. The pork bulgogi was soooo good and the kimchi jigae was SO SPICY. I would eat here tomorrow if I could!! I think we found our new favorite in Columbia!

I decided to try them out because of the reviews; therefore, when I arrived I ordered from the lunch menu. This is after the waitress came to the table and didn't greet me or anything. That was strike 1. When she brought the sides it literally consisted of two pieces per dish. I stopper and asked to exchange the three sides I don't eat for the three I do. I was automatically told if I don't want I don't eat. In my thinking I'm saving you products by not wasting;therefore, why not exchange them. Nevertheless, the final situation was when the waitress brought out the food. First, the meat was burnt and 2nd the rice had an egg on top. I'm allergic and I said as much. The waitress then said that she don't want to serve me. I agreed because I didn't want the food. I work to hard and times are to stuff for me to beg a restaurant to take my money. Especially since she acted like she didn't want me there since I walked in. And yes I understand different cultures and people act different but I've been around people long enough to know the difference. Therefore, despite the reviews the service was bad, the food appeared burned, and the attitude was even worse.

this restaurant today around 12:30 PM during my lunch break, hoping to take advantage of their advertised lunch special (available from 11 AM to 2:30 PM). Upon entering, I immediately noticed another customer, also a person of color, leave the restaurant quickly.

When I stepped inside, the woman working there dismissively shooed me away as if I were an inconvenience, stating, “No takeout orders, too busy,” before rushing to the back. There was no apology, no explanation—just a blatant disregard for my presence. Meanwhile, the dining area was filled with Asian and Caucasian patrons being served without issue.

This isn’t my first time visiting this establishment, and I’ve seen it just as busy before. However, on those occasions, the crowd was more diverse, and I never encountered this kind of treatment. When I stepped outside, the other young woman—who had also been rudely turned away—mentioned it was her first time here, and she had a similar experience.

After this blatant display of discrimination, I have no intention of ever giving this place my business again. If you value being treated with respect, I suggest you take your money elsewhere.

This place is great. Service is outstanding, no question. In today's economy, the prices are very fair and reasonable-no complaints. And the food! OMG, the food. It rocks. Yes, go here, but only if you want good food and a fair price!

Quick service, my grilled mackerel was perfectly cooked. All the side dishes came out quickly, my favorite was the fried zucchini bites, kimchi, bean sprouts and radish. The fish cakes were good but a little thin compared to others I have had before. Great experience, will definitely be back!
