We came on a Wednesday evening, and decided to sit by the bar side to avoid waiting for a table. We ordered some food off the happy hour menu - the masubi and California roll. Both were good and a great value. My husband ordered the beef bulgolgi and he enjoyed it. I got the yaki udon with chicken. Food was great and the bartender was so friendly!

Affordable and delicious. Catch their happy hour. The atmosphere is the perfect. There's karaoke, soju, and a Korean bar inspired food selection.

We went out for dinner on Friday evening and had some difficulty finding a table. Eventually, we settled for seats on the bar side. We started with some chicken Karagge as an appetizer and then ordered two hot pots – one with spicy seafood and the other with coconut curry. Although I wish the noodles in the seafood pot were thinner, both dishes were absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this place if you're craving some amazing Ramen.

Been here a couple times, there’s always a wait but there usually open seats at the bar. Their happy hour menu is fantastic and such a great value. My favorite roll so far is the Vegas roll but I definitely need to come back and try more soon.

Nice atmosphere but the food on the other hand... Very underwhelming and certainly bar food. If you live close, I can understand visiting out of convenience but I would not suggest traveling more than 5 minutes for it.

Came here for dinner with friends. Sushi was so crispy and delicious!!! Place was a bit busy so service was slow but we still got a place to sit by the bar without any wait time. The music and ambience was good, cozy, enjoyable experience with friends!Vegetarian options: Veggie menu available.

Vegetarian options: They have a few vegetarian options, I recommend the tofu tempura and the sweet potato rolls. The mushroom skewer is also a really good vegetarian option. I do wish that they had a few more main entree options for vegetarians.

I've driven past this place quite a few times without realizing it was a restaurant. It has a decent amount of parking. The host was nice and greeted us. Getting to the bar was kinda odd but not the worst I've seen. You walk outside, through outdoor seating and then get into the bar.I forgot what we ordered but it was good enough that we will return and the prices weren't bad either.

The food and service here are great. The bar room in the back is first come, first served as well. The people are always professional and care about your needs. It is affordable, especially during their happy hours. The coconut curry was delicious as well. The sushi is tasty. Make sure you try the deep-fried cali roll as well!

I've only ordered take out, but the hot pot is DELICIOUS! I got the Korean Army Pot, and the serving was ample, ramen noodles were delightfully tender, and the broth was flavorful and spicy enough to clear my sinus passages! Just the thing I need to help me recover from this cold.
