| - Surprisingly, I have never heard about this place till one of my friends told me about this place. This place has been in Vegas for about 17 years (give or take) and have never heard about it till now! I'm from Hawai'i and I haven't heard about it from my fam and Hawaiian friends that live here. I only found out about it thru a friend (who's originally from NY). Maybe I use to go here with an ex and I just blocked it all out from my memory. Lol.
it's a small place, and easy to miss when your driving down sahara in traffic and all the construction. Once we got there, it was not busy, a quiet relaxing place to have a meal. They got a wide screen tv w/ the basketball game on.
We were greeted and served by the owner. He got the pidgin accent. I love that, always make me feel like I'm back home. the menu is simple, that's good for people like me who can love everything on the menu and have a hard time deciding what to get.
This is the first place I've been to that has fish jun! My favorite Korean-Hawaiian dish is meat jun, but I wanted to try this. I'm the adventurous type so I always like to try new things.
I like the appetizers here. It's different than other Korean restaurants. They got the kimchee, pickled potatoes?, and some other ones. They were all soooo good! I couldn't eat a lot of it, so I stuffed the rest in my take out box hehe. My friends didn't care for it, lucky me... I had it all to myself!
I appreciate it when the owners are able to serve and chat a little bit with us. it seems humble.
I told him I love meat jun, but this is the first time I've had fish jun. He said the next time we come in he'll make zucchini jun for us, right on!!! it's not on the menu.
The meat jun is pretty good, but Soon's meat jun in salt lake, Oahu, Hawai'i tops my list. but this will be my go to spot for anything jun in Vegas.
Oh yah, I like that they give a delicious tea at the end of your meal, no charge. :)
One con is that it's a bit of a drive for me coming from east Henderson. maybe that's another reason why I've haven't heard about this place.
They've got other locations in Vegas, but this is the one to go to. Others have tried the other locations, and all said it's not the same!
