Who would have thought a random spot in a strip mall would be this good??? I have tried SO MANY korean spots on the east side, seattle and Lynwood but no where near as good as this place. Like what the heck ??.The price was reasonable and the portion was awesome. I have had nothing but soggy seafood pancakes and was kinda expecting something similar but they blew my mind. The pancake was actually crunchy, doesn’t have that stinky old seafood smell or waxy after taste. The sauce wasn’t too salty and all the dishes were so yummy and well seasoned.The banchan was bomb too! They gave me refill without additional fee.I would love to come back and try more of the menu!!We got LA GALBI, seafood pancake and cheese corn.

Overall a solid 4! Just hadn’t dragged ourselves to try this place after our favorite, Chinoise, closed. Got there at 6:30 on Friday and had no wait. Couple of servers asked if we were ready while we still looking at the menus so felt a little rushed.Food came out pretty fast. We all enjoyed what we ordered but I think the sodium levels were really high in a couple of the dishes. Felt totally dehydrated for a while after dinner. The fish cake banchan was great and we ended up requesting a couple of refills.Tried out a new Korean wine and weren’t impressed. Next time , will stick with the KSD draft Makgeolli we know we like.Ice cream was interesting and worth a visit by itself. Pick one up if you are walking by on a warm day.Will probably visit again send try something else. Try it if you’ve been holding off.

What is up with these reviews? Stopped in for lunch today. Food is very very average. Quality of ingredients is mediocre.Service was awful. Special shoutout to Mulleted WalMart BTS server with tats. Seemed super annoyed at our very existence.

I ordered a large portion of appetizer, but there were no side dishes provided. The waiter was busy with expressionless face. I don’t think they care about customers.

My favorite traditional Korean restaurant in Washington. Even my Korean mom who is difficult to please loved everything we ate when I brought her here. My favorite dishes are the rice cake soup with mandu and kimchi jeon.

I went here for dinner. Firstly, I noticed the aesthetic of the place, it is very calming and peaceful. I ordered a tofu bipimbap and it came very quickly, as there is efficient service. They also have all the sides (which are included), they were delicious. Additionally, the waiters and service at this place are incredible! I’ve never had such kind people serve me at a restaurant before. The food was delicious, it was very well presented and I really liked that there were a ton of vegetables instead of too much filler rice (there was enough rice though). There was also complementary miso soup and tea provided. The meal and experience were amazing, I would 10/5 recommend.

Great food and service! Nice banchan selection that the server happily refills. Portion was good, we were so stuffed. A bit disappointed that soft tofu soup didnt have an egg! Very popular, we waited 30 minutes to be seated. Good for casual date night, family gathering etc.
Finally, a decent Korean restaurant with tasty food and reasonable prices. Highly recommend.

Poor service, they charge you for the plastic bag they give you to put your left over food in without telling you! Had me pour three large soup bowls into the to go containers myself! So messy and inconvenient. Food was very average. Unfortunately we won't be going back! But they seemed to be doing ok so I think it's just not our cup of tea!By the way I did not complain about the restaurant bringing the plastic bag! And I know I could have told them if I didn't need it! When you bring something to your customer outside of your menu and give it to them you should let them know you would charge them for that if the item wasn't free! There is no charge for bags and to go boxes in most restaurants so if you don't offer them for free you should tell the customers that!

Dined in with family for lunch late in the afternoon. Ordered two different entrees. Both were really good, hot and fresh, and flavorful. Portion sizes were big for one person. Service was really hospitable and staff were exceptional. Ambience is good. Must try.
