4/5 STARS - Judging Ham approved! Walking in, we were immediately greeted by the kindest woman we’ve ever met! When she dropped off our meals, she’d linger for a while and make small talk, complimenting my hair or asking how the meals were. Amazing customer service and the overall vibe felt very homey and comfortable. Korean news media played on the T.V.‘s and the restaurant was not crowded at all (Wednesday around 2-4 PM). I love the 떡볶이 and 반찬 dishes here, super lovely!!!

This place never disappoints! Highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a cozy, home cooked, Korean meal. Everything always taste so fresh. The spices and flavor always come through and the staff is very friendly. I've done my fair share of exploring Korean cuisine, from Dallas to Houston, and this restaurant rivals the high end ones in the bigger cities. And... It's cheap. 12 dollars will leave you loosening your pants!!

Since it was my first time here I gave 2 stars instead of the 1 star they deserve. I got the bulgogi. They need to do a better job in marinating it. Barely any flavor. The side kimchi was literally made from what appeared to be jalapeño peppers. Yes! Extremely spicy. The rice was good.

This place is my new favorite spot! We came to dine in and were greeted by the sweetest woman ever. She took our orders and our food came out so fast! I had ordered #5 which was the fried squid. Everything was so delicious with all the toppings and rice, definitely recommend!

I loved this place. The people are amazing and the dishes are very authentic, specially for the area. It feels like you are in a Koreantown restaurant out if LA or NY. Very laid back and amazing food.

This place has the best authentic Korean food. My BFF growing up had a mom that was born and raised in Korea until she got married and moved to the US. She made the best Korean food and she would always make a bunch of food for me in a ton of freezer bags. She would always send me home with like 3 bags of frozen meats with sauce. The food here reminds me so much of her, she passed away from cancer a few years ago. The spicy beef soup is really good and the beef is so soft and delicious 😋. Spicy pork belly is perfect 🥰 😍 😌 💕 took my coworkers and they loved it.

My husband and I went to this place to experience our first Korean dish ever. I read the reviews so we had to visit. It is a small place with limited tables. There is a total of 6 tables. Some are large to hold a party of 8-10 while others for 4 people. We had to wait when we arrived but not long because we ended up sharing a table with a gentlemen who offered us two seats. We enjoyed his company. My husband ordered the Bulgogi and I ordered Jajangmyeon. We also ordered dumplings. The dumplings were my favorite! My husband’s Bulgogi was good (I had a bite). However, he did not feel completely full when he finished his meal. On the contrary, I couldn’t finish my Jajangmyeon because I got full. They served a lot and on a large bowl. I ended up leaving some. My only gripe with Jajangmyeon is that it needed more meat. Overall, we had a good first time with Korean food. Oh, the waitresses have limited English and want you to order right away (please look at the menu before you arrive). Also, be prepared to see a lot of BTS posters on the wall and Korean news.
