Ambiance: hipster hole-in-the-wall. I didn't ask if the servers are related, but it definitely has a family vibe.Portion size: ample. I got the bulgogi japchae. It came out in a small mixing bowl, filled to the brim. Plus, it came with banchan. You will not leave hungry!Service: very friendly. You can tell these are good people.Flavor: solidMy only nit is that the kitchen was slow. My food took a bit more than half an hour to come out.I don't think I'd take the train to come back here, but I would return if I was within walking distance. Great neighborhood spot!

The atmosphere is great, service is amazing!The Galbi Bibimbap was great, the only thing to note is the bulgogi stew is too sweet for my taste and the kimchi felt too aged. The chicken was decent.

A hidden gem for amazing Korean food!This restaurant is cozy and narrow with decently priced food. There isn't too much seating though - about five 4-seat tables and three 2-seaters. The chairs were kinda uncomfortable, and the cushion wouldn't really stay in place. There also wasn't much space at the smaller table for all the food and side dishes, so it was very cramped.Aside from the poor furniture choices, the food was well worth the discomfort. First, there's a simple QR code to scan for the menu. The menu is simple and each dish has a corresponding photo. The special combo was very worth it, as it came with two dishes.I got the 'Bulgogi or Spicy Pork + Tofu Stew' set. The tofu stew was incredible. The broth was so flavorful and addicting. Plus, it came with lots of ingredients - tofu, mushrooms, egg, and kelp (?). The bulgogi was also very flavorful and sweet. It came out on a sizzling plate so make sure you let it cool down a bit.And ofc, every Korean restaurant has unlimited banchan (side dishes). Normally I only like one or two at other restaurants but l liked every single side dish that I literally cleaned up the plate.

This spot has quickly become my go to Korean food in Astoria. Being Korean myself, I am a harsh critique when it comes to Korean food but everything I’ve tried tastes authentic and spot on. Woo is the friendliest server and makes sure we have a great dining experience every time. P.S he makes the best watermelon soju ?Kid-friendliness: Very kind friendly and a lot of dishes kids would love!

Amazing food and phenomenal value for the price! The bulgogi and crunchy tofu were fantastic and big enough to take leftovers home for a whole second meal. We were blown away by the soju watermelon drink — probably one of the best cocktail deals in nyc! So tasty and can probably feed an army

We just love it here. The most wholesome delicious food and amazing folks who run it.Very unassuming casual low key place, excellent service, comforting meals.Some of our favorites: crunch tofu appetizer, ssam, scallion pancakes appetizer, bibimbap with tofu, and soy bean paste stew/soup.Must visit - I’d be remiss if I did not write a review.

Food is okay but korean girl who works as a server in the lunch shift is not good. She acted like i asked their food for free. Im customer please keep in your mind when you work in the customer service role.
