I had been craving raw marinated crabs for who even knows how long. So I jumped at the opportunity to go when a friend told me about this place. They do require about an hour and a half notice if you want certain things on the menu, so I would just call in beforehand so that you can order and you don't have to wait there. The raw marinated crab is so good! Both the soy and spicy marinades are delicious, even by themselves on rice. The crabs are so meaty and juicy and creamy. You don't even have to eat it with rice, it's so good on its own. The seafood pancake was a really good side dish to add on. Nothing too special on its own but just nice to have and you can dip it in the soy marinade. The abalone porridge was good, but if you're getting the crabs, I don't think it's really necessary to have. Because you already get rice and seafood. But it's still a good homey porridge.

The soup here is amazing!! I finish every single drop of it. Soy marinated abalone is also my go to. Their soy is soooo good. Very different than any other spot. I wish they were on the delivery apps, but could see why they’re not.

Specialties here are marinated seafood, herbal chicken and duck jook, and hot pot. Most items are large format and must be pre-ordered. It's awesome.

I finally had it on my third week here. Be sure to call in advance to make a reservation. All hot dishes must be prepared 1 hour in advance, even for pick up! The duck soup is indeed very delicious! It’s too much for two people, the raw marinade is great, the recent shrimp has paste but the crab has no paste, the bibimbap is also delicious, perfect for when the weather is cold!

If you are searching for chicken soup or duck soup, here is the great answer! If you would love raw crab/shrimp/abalone, here is the great choice.

Amazing food, attentive and caring service, and overall a great atmosphere! My friends and I came here on a cold day, and the abalone porridge was the perfect remedy. The marinated crab, shrimp, and abalone set is truly worth it, and honestly a great deal, especially if split! The flavours were so rich and memorable. The best part is that you can tell it's all very fresh and high quality. Highly highly recommend!
Caution: Order the chicken porridge 90 minutes ahead. We tried both chicken porridge and soy sauce marinated crab, but the chicken stole the show. Crab cuisine was not that delicious so I don't recommend to try it that much. Undoubtedly, this is the go-to place for chicken porridge.A noteworthy tip: bring your own drinks, including water, as the served water has an unpleasant smell that might be off-putting for those unaccustomed to tap water.While they don't serve alcohol, it's BYOB, allowing you to bring your preferred beverages.The servers weren't very accommodating, deducting one star, but that's the only flaw I'd like to critique.

Would come again, service is really great, and food tastes good as well.
Looks like you have to preorder (1.5 hr before) either soup or porridge in order to maximize the dining experience. And those who did preorder looked like they had a feast of the month.Unfortunately I did not preorder and I was stuck with soy marinated raw crab/shrimp/abalone as the only option. It wasn’t bad, but did not justify the price.
