Authentic Korean dishes with great flavor, will definitely visit again
This is the best Korean mackerel I’ve had outside of Korea. The staff is so nice and the food is just amazing
I’m Korean. This place is authentic. The taste is legitimately Korean. It’s always packed for a reason. Even the boys if BTS got take away BBQ pork belly from here. It’s #1 for a reason.
