Been living in the HD a long time now and never got around to this place til this weekend. I'm sad we didn't get here sooner. Great food. Tofu stew was incredible, best thing on the table. Gonna get takeout next time I'm sick. But everything was good. Got the family pack to try a little of everything. Spicy pork, bulgogi, short ribs and their kimchi were real stand outs. And they have soju. Nice little mini-mart with instant noodles and a variety of other things. We will be back.Parking: Tons of parking space in the strip mall.
The food is fantastic...if you can get past the terrible service. The woman serving us was so very rude. When she came to the table I asked her a question about the food and she stared at me and said " OK " and then asked what we wanted to drink. Literally just ignored my question. And we tried to go back another day, but even though the open sign was on, the clearly posed hours said they were open, and we saw people inside, the door was locked and no one even looked when we knocked. I really loved the food but I just can't deal with the service.

Got: Seafood suntubuPrice: ~$15Value: 8/10 average price for Korean food which is slightly on the pricier side. Solid Korean food in the High Dessert. Instantly transports me back to studying abroad in Seoul. The wafting smell of Kimchi, metal cups and bowl with a water bottle to give yourself refills, a small store section in the front selling rice and ramen. This place is family owned. The Ahjuma that took our order greeted us in Korean and also spoke Mandarin. Food is homey and solid. Cozy ambiance with all the traditional banchan (fish cake, bean sprouts, kimchi, radish, etc...) I've only been here twice but I belive the banchan is on a rotating schedule - AS IT should be with the changing seasons. Fixes the Korean food craving. A little gem of a mom and pop store in the High Desert.

This place is easy to miss since it's tucked away in the corner of a predominantly Hispanic shopping plaza, but I'm so glad I found them. The restaurant itself is quiet, relaxed, and clean enough. Staff is really friendly and welcoming. They pretty much leave you alone, which I usually love, but it can be a little difficult to get a hold of someone if you want to order more. The food is great! The side dishes taste fresh, and all the main dishes come out piping hot. The seafood pancake leaves a little to be desired, but the soups and noodles are flavorful and filling. I definitely want to return to try more dishes.They're maybe not as high on my list of favorites as BCD or other places in OC or LA, but I love that they are a local spot that serves up good food. While a little pricey, they have a lot of different menu options, which makes them really competitive in my opinion. It's actually worth my time and money...and saves me a drive down the hill when the craving hits.

Was craving Korean bbq and normally we'd drive down the hill for it. Decided to give something local a chance and we think we've found a hidden gem. Everything fresh, delicious and came out piping hot! We'll be back.

Food is pretty good. It's cooked by owner's husband. The server is owner. Mom and pop business. There's mini market display of different side dishes, cookies, crackers and rare items that's only found is Los Angeles Koreatown. If you are craving Korean food in Victorville area, this is the spot.
Satisfied with what i ate, Would give 5 stars good food, amazing soup, but found a hair in my banchan...Other then that everything was good that we ate kimchi pancake taste good as well.

If you haven't tried this place; YOU MUST. Spicy tofu soup was as authentic as it come. The owner does it all, waits tables, greets ppl and concern about your meal. The place is simply decorated with tables designed for 2 ppl. I have the chicken cutlet and was a huge portion with all the accoutrements that come along with it.

Food is excellent. As a Korean , I can say that taste is as same as Korea genuine cuisine or better .All the side dish was great as well .I highly recommend this restaurant.

Surprisingly good. I was in town for work and I decided to try this place out. I ordered their tofu, soup and Kalbi. Nice small mom and pop restaurants. My meal came with side orders and rice. I would recommend.
