Best Korean food I've had in the Olympia area! At little on the expensive side, but the portions are huge!

Food tastes amazing. Ordered the pork belly stir fry, vegetable pancake and some mandu to share with a group. The banchan was the best I’ve had at a restaurant. If you like Korean food you won’t regret it.

I had the pleasure of dining at this Korean restaurant about a month ago, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Every dish we ordered was full of rich, balanced flavors made with fresh ingredients and authentic spices.
The kimchi was perfectly tangy and lively, and the barbecue was cooked to perfection—tender, juicy, and lightly charred in the best way. The variety of side dishes (banchan) added even more excitement to the meal, each offering its own unique taste and texture.
The staff were warm, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome throughout our visit.
Overall, this restaurant stands out not only for its delicious food but also for its genuine hospitality. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic Korean dining experience. My family and I are already looking forward to our next visit!

We really enjoyed the food-it was delicious and well prepared. However, we noticed some hesitation when we asked for additional sides, even after directly requesting them. The staff also didn’t seem very friendly or welcoming throughout our visit.
When we were wrapping up, the woman with the round glasses brought the bill without making eye contact or asking if we needed anything else. It came across as dismissive and made the overall experience feel cold.
While I understand that different places may have different service styles, I personally expect both great food and a warm, customer-focused atmosphere when dining out. Unfortunately, the lack of friendliness and attentiveness today left us disappointed. We likely won’t be returning after this experience.

Food - Late night dinner that hit the spot. Kalbi ribs were perfectly done with char and all juicy! I thought about getting a side, but there was enough ribs that I didn't get too full! I wish they had an option of all you can eat Kalbi ribs!
Service - Kind courteous service!
Atmosphere - smal and quaint which equals great food! Everyone was friendly!

Food was really good and their spice lived up to our expectations! Hard to find a place that will actually make it spicy when you ask. Service was really warm and welcoming, would definitely come again.

Perfect hole in the wall place with authentic Korean food. The food could have been more flavorful but the sides always make up for it! The service was outstanding and the menu was terrific, I had a hard time choosing! Will definitely be back to try more of their dishes.

I love that places like this exist. Mom and pop restaurants with solid food and super friendly and fast service. Keep these places open!

Everything we had was delicious! From the seafood pancake to the bibimbap to the doenjang jigae. We will make sure to stop by whenever we drive through the area.
The food was mediocre. Building run down on inside and out, makes you wonder what you cannot see. Following eating here, my husband started to feel sick. The waitress which I am assuming is one of the owners made us feel extremely rushed to order and then when it came time to get the check and boxes, no one was to be found. Very overpriced! Won't be visiting again.

I absolutely enjoyed my meal here! My brother came up to visit from Utah and hr wanted to try authentic Korean food so we decided on Seoul Garden. The food was amazing! I got the soft tofu stew (lunch special) and tteokbokki. Pure comfort food! I brought my 11 month old with us and the lady would play with him and she was so kind she brought extra sides out for him to enjoy and didn’t charge us for them! Kindest customer service and best food I plan on coming here more during the winter when I need a nice hot meal
