From the name, I would not have thought it would be a mom and pop Korean restaurant! Not only is the food delicious, but the people who work here are so friendly and really encourage people to come back. I honestly really loved their stews, and soups. Their fried chicken was also stellar - perfectly crispy, with ample meat (as some places are all breading and no meat). I would love for people to try this restaurant. Sometimes I feel like they are sort of hidden so people don't even notice that this awesome restaurant is located at the Van Dorn Plaza! I want more people to come here and show their support as the owners are just so sweet and I honestly believe they make their food with love.

WHERE’S THE BEEF?!?!? I paid over $14 for the Bibimbap (to go) and what I got was a to-go plate of vegetables with a fried egg on top, a tiny amount of beef hidden under the egg and a LOT of rice. Taste? Very bland and lacking any flavor at all. But at least they gave me the chili sauce to add SOME flavor. I’ll pass on this and look for another Korean restaurant next time.

Hidden gem that i didn't know opened. Other two dishes and both were great. Large portions on the food. Not generous on the meat but good enough. Would definitely try a few more dishes or wings. Below is the fried noodles with bulgogi and the bibima mix both great however the noodles and bulgogi was a winner here.

Every visit here, the food has been amazing. Portion sizes are great, especially for the price and they have a great selection. 10/10 recommend - fast, low priced and most importantly, tasty food!

I've never had Korean food so it's hard to really rate. I'm giving 3 stars because food was decent, but not as flavorful as I would have expected. Also portions were on the smaller side and a bit pricey. We got bulgogi ( good flavor but small portion), yakisoba ( pretty good) and bibimbap. Once I've had more experience with Korean food, I'll know if this is the standard flavor and portion or not.

Consistent, clean, fresh and delicious this place has a touch of culture mixed with a price that is difficult to beat anywhere. The value of what you get combined with the great taste of the product is everything that you need for whatever meal that you come for. This is not the first time that I’ve been here however every time I have come they have never messed with anything. If you’re looking for something different not fast food with great quality this is definitely a place you wanna check out but don’t take my word for it….. Come and try yourself.

I had hopes based on reviews but was very disappointed. I love Korean food but this was lacking. I ordered the spicy pork which had a nice flavor but ZERO spice. I also ordered the honey spice wings. I opened the box and there was very little aroma. There was barely any of sauce on the wings. It was nothing honey or spice about it. Extremely disappointed considering how much I paid for them. If I wasn't working, I would have returned the entire order. I gave this 2 stars solely because the pork had a flavorful marinade. Otherwise 1.

POOR POOR POOR customer service. We Walked in to order food & two people (a man and a woman) was sitting at a table. The woman went behind the counter and just looked at us so I guess she was ready for my order, I proceeded. The man looked at the order screen and went to the back so I paid. She said nothing! I asked sooooooo will it be about 15 minutes or so ?!?! she said yes! So we went to the grocery store next door for a few minutes and came back. Again, come back and not a soul in the restaurant besides the two workers. The man who works there was sitting at a table but then stands up and oddly stared off into space but says NOTHING AT ALL TO US. So I go to the register and I’m standing there waiting to be acknowledged. After about a minute, the lady comes out of the back/kitchen and just stares at me (just as she did when I was ordering the first time) I said I’m here to pick up our order, remember we were here 10 minutes ago. I’m making this a point because if the restaurant was busy af I can understand not remembering us. But no one was here, you don’t remember me and my son who just ordered a few minutes ago. Anyway, the food was ok. I will never return and I will never recommend this place to anyone. Should’ve eaten the 25 cent ramen from Aldi instead and saved myself $31. I gave two stars instead of 1 because my son liked the chicken dumplings.

Had the kimchi jjigae. It tasted great! I nice kick of spiciness that wasn’t overwhelming. I wish there had been a bit more pork in the bowl, but overall it hit the spot on a cold winter day!

Nice little quiet spot but the flavor is on point. I got the Chicken Gyoza and the ramen. Both were great and she made sure that I was happy. I will be back again this week.

The food was good enough, but for the price there wasn't a lot of it.
