“My wife and I were out getting some craft supplies nearby. We could smell the food being cooked from down the parking lot. I wanted to find out what it was, and I was able to pinpoint it this place. I knew it was this place as soon as we walked through the door.We came in right after the lunch crowd was done and were seated right away. We ordered waters and then started to review the menu.This being my first time at this type of cuisine, I wanted to order something new, and something I could not pronounce. When I choose like this, I do not read descriptions of what is in the dish, so I have no expectations on what to expect.I ordered the bulgogi, zucchini fries (seasoned), and my wife ordered the fried chicken strips with coleslaw.When the food came to the table I was pleasantly surprised to see the dish was a large stone bowl, which was piping hot. It kept my food warm the entire time I was eating.The bulgogi was fresh, not just fresh made, but you could tell they used fresh ingrdients. The carrots that were used had a wonderful flavor. The mushrooms were amazing, and the kale was excellent as well. There were other items in this dish, but the freshness of these really spoke to me. I was happy to find a portion of rice hiding under all of this. The sauce that came with it had a little kick to it, but was not so over powering that it took away from the flavors of the fresh ingredients.The zucchini fries were well done, and seasoned well too. They came with some spicy dipping sauce, which has a little more of a kick than the sauce in my other dish, but was perfect, as it did not hit you so hard as to be too much.I was also able to steal a few peices of my wife's chicken, which was amazing, and went well in the bulgogi.They also had a sign about getting free chicken wings if you check in on a specific social media platform. So, I went ahead and did this. This got me 2 free wings, so I decided to try their spicy wings.The spicy wings are hot, but not in the normal burn your face off way. The use of spices and the other flavors in the sauce used make a delayed heat hit you. In addition to this delayed burn, as you eat more of it, it slightly cools the heat, and then builds slowly on the level, but not to an intensity that is not manageable.We have determined that this place hits a special spot in the food world for us, and have put this on our list as a favorite place to go. What is more, I was extremely surprised to learn that this is a larger chain of restaurants, and I look forward to testing the food consistently between locations. I hope to find that they eat like a hole in the wall place, but at all of their locations, as I expect them to keep the same flavor consistency and same level to details in their ingredients.“

“Got lunch while we were in town. The dumplings texture was correct and the perfect temp and taste. I convinced my husband to try the Katsu Kimbap and he really enjoyed it with the FWA sauce! I got the Bulgogi bowl and each ingredient tasted so right. I did not like the donkatsu sauce as it was way too sweet, I ended up stealing some of the FWA which was too good. If you've ever had Korean this hits all the right flavors, if you ever want to try Korean this would be the spot. Portion sizes are well worth what they are charging!“

“Really good Korean fried chicken. Haven’t tried all their flavors but their honey garlic wings hit the spot every time so it’s hard to stray…I’ve always ordered take out (here and at another franchise location in Boston) but the dine-in space they have here has a cool casual vibe.“
