"We brought my husband here as a spur of the moment Father's Day lunch and were pleasantly surprised at the fair pricing and quality of service. We had a short 20 minute wait since it was bus and were seated at a communal style table with 2 other parties. It became crowded when all 3 different parties had their meats and sides brought so it was a slightly uncomfortable trying not to grab or bump the other parties items. The staff is fast, tentative and helpful. Our waitress checked on us a reasonable amount to make us feel like she was on top of our orders. They offer Soju lemonade in pitchers and beer as well if you're looking for an alcoholic beverage. For 36.99 we couldn't go wrong with a...

I have ordered take-out and the food is very well made and packaged carefully. Every component of a dish is included separately so when you get home, you can combine the elements for a fresh meal. When I asked a question via the restaurant email, my question was answered quickly and I was thanked for my support. There is a family atmosphere to the restaurant, and I am guessing it is family owned. The attention to detail on orders and how you are greeted when you arrive is very welcoming.

Delicious (authentic tasting, according to my Korean mom) Korean BBQ. My mom was concerned about it being AYCE, since AYCE places often compromise quality for quantity, but that was not an issue here. The meat was delicious. Our favorite was probably the jumulleok (ju mul luk) galbi, which came in thick strips. It was tender, and absolutely delicious just dipped in a little bit of salt. The banchan was also great, with the kimchi and bean sprouts standing out as especially good. The meal was an absolute steal for the quantity and quality of food we got. I highly recommend this place! It’s super underrated.

It’s our first time back since the pandemic. The place was busy, all tables were occupied including outside seating. There were only 2 people taking orders but there were more than a few bringing food to the tables. Their exhaust system was pretty powerful, it was not smoky when we were there. We ordered the premium all you can eat menu which came with seafood. The shrimp and marinated spicy squid were fresh and delicious. The marinated galbi and joo mul luk galbi were out favorites. The salad and banchan were ok but the vegetable pancake was crispy and not too greasy. It was an enjoyable meal. Kudos to Justyce for her cheerful demeanor despite the hard work.
