My friend and I split the soy garlic chicken and the sweet and spicy chicken. We also got a seafood pancake. All of the food was delicious and the server was very friendly. The portions are a bit small, but it's not that expensive at the same time. I'd recommend giving it a shot!

I came here for lunch with a friend and we both ordered the King Bab, which comes with a salad, japchae, rice and a choice of protein. I had the Soy and Garlic chicken, and my friend had the Bulgogi, both were super delicious and reasonably priced. Will definitely return to try their Pajeon and their Tteokbokki.

The interior props (text) are so bad...It was my first time seeing a pork rice bowl with salad and vermicelli.The amount of meat is very small. It is not filled to the bottom of the bowl. The first layer is all rice and that is the end in the picture.

The owners are a real piece of work here. I had a brief stint with them. By the way, take a look at the kitchen.It’s absolutely filthy and has grease coating the walls. The food is also handled in a dirty way. The oil is literally never changed, i only saw it replaced once and when asked the last time it was changed was nearly a year before. Draining the machine was a nightmare because it was clogged so badly.Saw the other staff use gloves that are used to touch raw chicken handle japchae with only a brief rinse between. The tofu soup is loaded with msg. The man does not communicate at all and couldn’t care less about what happens. The woman doesn’t do anything yet micromanages everything you do and yells if you dont do things exactly her way, on the dot.Both dont tell you how to do the work properly and expect you to learn everything perfectly when they only keep you for 3 hours a week. It’s crazy, they’re definitely among the worst resto managers ive ever met.Don’t eat here, the owners are genuinely awful people and the food is made in a dirty, small, dark kitchen. I’m serious.

We knew we were in a good spot when we smelled the fabulous food patrons already seated we're eating. We were immediately greeted when we arrived. We were told they were already out of beef and also couldn't serve the the two person large soup, but did have single person.My son got the garlic soy chicken and I got kimchi ramen. I chose mild spicy and my son chose level two out of three hot options. He immediately said he should've gotten the lowest. I, too, struggled a bit with spiciness, but didn't lose any flavor.As I always state, I am quite hard to please, I wish we'd been given more than just a single small thin napkin as my was used up the first time I had to wipe nose which was running from the spiciness. In fact the lack of a usable napkin was a source of irritation the entire meal . Otherwise we will definitely be going back as the food was amazing!We were there on a Wednesday evening around 6:30 PM .

Not sure why the ratings are so high. It's not bad, but really nothing to write home about. Service is perfunctory. Not in a hurry to go back.

Order was instantaneous, and tasted great (comparing with Mom’s japchae). Spicy prok japchae between two people was quite filling and decently priced. Staff was polite, friendly, and quick. I want to dine in

the food was great and the service really quick, but the music was too loud. Overall I would recommend it for your next bibimbap craving.
