One of my favorite Korean spots. Very authentic and such a vibe. Love the service and the food. My husband and I always get the Galbi and love their banchan. It’s amazing.✨👏

Low key Korean restaurant with a home made feel to the food. Everything was well seasoned I didn't have to ask for anything. Drinks were constantly refilled. The kimchi pancake was excellent as well as the dolsots.

The service and food were incredible! We got the dolsot bibimbap and kimchi jjigae and it tasted just like my grandparents cooking. I’ll definitely be back.

I just went here for dinner with my girlfriend and they brought out the steaming hot stone pots. I start stirring it and mixing all of my food as you do and noticed a weird smell, like burnt rubber, I looked down and what did I notice? A HUGE chunk of literal rock from the pot broke off and got in my food, completely all over it, just black chunks everywhere. They took it back, made me wait an additional 30 mins for a new one, then when we finally got it, the waitress had the actual audacity to start RUSHING US as they were closing soon, like they didn’t force us to wait twice as long for their mistake. Then the check came and they didn’t cop a single thing we ordered or say anything at all about making it up except a meager “sorry” when they brought the second one. Astonishingly, that wasn’t it, no. The waitress then comes over and asks if we’re going to leave a tip…I can’t even express how upset I was. Never coming here again. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place.

This was the only 순대국 (soondae guk) I could find in Austin, and it was quite disappointing. Yes, they did give a good amount of soondae in the soup and side dishes. However, I don't think the broth was proper bone broth (at least I couldn't taste it or the taste is way off), and they do not provide the two most essential items for a 순대국: 다대기 (red paste seasoning) and 젓갈 (fish sauce). My American friends liked it though, so I will still give three stars.
We love the food here. Last time, we ordered the ssambap with four different meats. Portions were favorable and flavorful. All the banchan is good(especially cucumber kimchi and potatoes). I recommend it to anyone who wants Korean food. The staff was friendly and no wait on a table.

The food was delicious. Delicious banchan. We ordered too much & look forward to the leftovers we took. The staff were all great and friendly. We live in Georgetown, but will be back. We loved the atmosphere too. Reminded us of how Korea feels. ❤️

Ordered a Galbi bento box. Food is so good. Came out fresh and hot in a decent portion. I especially loved the banchan. Their banchan is the BEST of all Korean restaurants in Austin. They are very well seasoned. This place absolutely deserves more customers to come try their food.

I was craving authentic Korean soft tofu soup, so I decided to try this restaurant. The tofu soup was so flavorful and the perfect amount of spice. They also give you complementary banchan like kimchi, cucumber salad, seafood tofu strips, which are also super tasty. Left very full and satisfied.

Decent kalguksu but knocking a few points off because of the cold, selective service.
I’m Asian but noticed there was a significant disparity in treatment that the waitress (also Asian, a middle-aged Korean lady with short white hair) exhibited towards Asian and non-Asian customers. She would warmly greet non-Asian customers, check in on whether they were enjoying their food (“how’s your food? You want more rice?? ☺️”) and was very effusive with their “here’s your bill, thank you so much!!! Please come again!!”.
However, the same server was extremely aloof with me - she checked in zero times, and handed me the bill with a curt nod and left. It’s disappointing to see and be on the receiving end of such blatant preferential treatment of non-Asian customers, especially from a fellow Asian establishment.
