We were wanting to try something different .. Korea … why not let see! The outside did not reflect the inside. Once we were in, very pleasant place well decorated.We asked for a recommendation dishes. Once the order made. Mine was smoky and well prepared.We enjoyed the food. It was delicious ? however it was tiny bit pricy for the size. But we were happy ?.Vegetarian options: We had to request because one of us is ? vegetarian.

This adorable locally owned husband and wife run restaurant is top notch in my opinion. I don't need to eat here for the 'make your own' K-bbq. I just sit at a regular table and order the specialty Korean dishes off the menu. Have patience when you come as this is a two-person show and occasionally there is an extra set of hands for help. That being said this place is run like a well oiled machine and the food comes out piping hot and delicious and consistent. The bathroom is clean (which is hard to say about a lot of other places) and the actual restaurant is clean with adorable korean decorations. Also you will hear K-pop music playing while you eat. The banchan (side dishes) are always delicious, crisp and fresh. I always order the seafood pancake appetizer that comes out sizzling like a plate of fajitas! And the stone pot bibimbap, lord!!! It too comes out piping hot and stays hot. Unlike many other Korean restaurants in our area. This is legit. The gochujang is served in a squeeze bottle so you can adjust the spice to your liking. I appreciate that. What else can I say? I love it. My hubs loves it. I know anyone who tries it here will love it! Sorry to not have better pictures.

Been going since this was Koreana II. The food here is exquisite, and the people that run it are amazing too.

Delicious and staff are super friendly! We got the Korean barbecue and it was a fun and varied experience.

Came with 7 ppl and waited for almost an hour but they served "Korean ppl" first, even though we came before them. I was used to come here, but after this, I will never come back.

The food is good but a little too spicy. I love spicy food but when you can't enjoy it... that's not so good.

We went for lunch today and arrived to a mostly empty restaurant. We waited to be seated for 5+ minutes, then at our table the waitress disappeared for another 10+ minutes. No offer for drinks or to take an order for our appetizer. She finally came back a while later and took our order of two unsweet teas, seafood pancake and two entrees. The teas were basically colored water, not a hint of tea flavor at all. The seafood pancake was brought and I asked for soy sauce. The waitress pointed to two small bowls with just enough to cover the bottom of the bowl with liquid. What asian restaurant rations soy sauce? I asked if I could have more and she brought a third bowl with the same amount. When our entrees arrived my wife's was fine, but mine was spicy squid which had no sauce except the oil it was cooked in and was just not good at all. Lastly, the banchan was five small bowls with one being cut sheets of seaweed. Absolutely disappointing and will not be back. This was also $75.00 with tip. We are also avid Korean foodies and I've lived in South Korea for a year and know traditional expectations for Korean cuisine. Mediocre would be a compliment to this meal.

Got there at 1:15 pm. They open at 1. There were four tables seated. I left at 1:50 having watched the waitress walk past me for a half hour without offering me a menu, drink, or any other words except “you’ll have to wait a minute.” I waited 35 because I love their food, but I left because it was the third time this has happened. Won’t be back.

Super understaffed. Came at 6:15 on a Sunday and there were 7 tables with patrons - all with no food. We waited for 5 awkward minutes before even bring greeted or looked at. 40 minute wait for a table when there were at least 10 more tables open.All this should've been an indicator to leave. We waited about 35 minutes before being seated. We tried to order right away but the server/only-person-working in the front didn't come back for 15 minutes. The whole ordeal took over 2 hours. The food definitely wasn't worth the wait or aggravation.The owner/management needs to work on hiring more people or else they will be opening up Koreana Restaurant IV.

I love the food, but I waited 35 minutes for the waitress to even offer me a menu or a drink. There were four seated tables in addition to me. She isn't there every week, but every time she is it is the same ridiculous wait. Won't be back.
