The first time I met the restaurant is on the road. And I saw people are served with many dishes on the table looks very delicious. Second time I tried to visit it myself and it didn't disappoint me. Cozy decoration with sense of home. Food was cooked well with proper temperature and utensils. Service is always in time and the taste of food is like home. highly recommend

This was the spot pre-Covid. Food was incredible and when new management took over everything went down hill. Decided to give it a second chance after 5 years of not coming back due to terrible standards… but now, things have changed. The staff is much better, the food is almost as good as i remember it to be, and the seating arrangements are still proper enough to host many guests without making them feel super close to each other. The classic pork katsu is a must try if you come here: their sauce is what makes it stand out. The Omurice however was extremely disappointing. They have excellent starters and food is served fairly quickly. I would not mind coming back here for some late night eats.

Had a great experience here! The food was so fresh and full of flavor, just like what you’d expect from a good Korean restaurant. The staff were really welcoming and made us feel comfortable right away. The place was clean and had a nice, cozy atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back and would recommend it to anyone who loves Korean food!

Based on 3 visits, this restaurant is a 5/5, great place for a social meal. The menu is a condensed enough to maintain quality choices at fair prices. All meals come with traditional Korean side dishes and rice complimentary which are also packaged for takeout purchase. They have a fair selection of imported Soju, and a taster option if unsure. Seating is semi private with patio space in the summer. Overall an excellent venue, it fills up fast during dinner hours. Hailey was very helpful and patient in explaining the dishes, flavour profiles, and recommendations.
