Our Guestbook
“ One of my coworker recommended this place and she said that I must try their grilled eel. It's a fairly common dish eaten in Korea as it is believed to help with overall stamina. I haven't had a chance to have grilled eel in the states, for a very long time, so I was so excited. It's a bit pricey, but it was worth it. At first the fish looked flat, but once fully cooked, the meat got fluffy. It didn't have any fishy taste and was very fresh. We also had bean curd jigae which reminded me of my grandmother's cooking. Comfort food! I liked the banchan they gave us and my favorite was the kimchi with oysters. It's a BYOB place as well so we brought beer. It was a satisfying dinner to share with a friend. I will definitely visit again. ”
“ Really enjoyed dinner here- a bit pricey, but the food was worth it. The waiter grilled the pork on the charcoal for us and also gave us extra dishes (like bean stew and egg curd) Their indoor dining is spaced out and employees were wearing masks. ”
“ Went for Weekday Lunch Special Food - 5/5. Banchan were tasty and you could tell the clientele here is mostly Korean as 4/5 of them had spicy flavors. The salad was great with the watercress adding a nice bitter yet refreshing bite. Fat on the pork belly was rendered well giving it a slightly crispy bite and the sauce had a good amount of kick. Kimchi-jjigae had a broth full of pork flavors that was balanced out with the tart taste of the kimchi. Very Korean! Service - 4/5. Waitress was kind and service was good. Value - 3/5. Due to the name of the restaurant I wanted to have a pork dish but the lunch special doesn't offer much pork options. The pork belly saute runs at $17 which is pretty expensive for a weekday lunch special. It comes paired with a kimchi-jjigae but there isn't an option to just have the pork itself without the soup for a lower price. The high prices make it a bit detrimental to recommend. Parking - Street (Metered) ”
“ The kalbi was AMAZING!!! The servers were really sweet and...just check it out. The price was a little high for me but good food is worth it. The place also seems good for small groups of people. ”
