| - Wanting a late-night meal after work, we figured Korean would be the best bet to get good hearty food late. We randomly just chose this restaurant because we were looking for gamjatang and bibimbap. It was 10pm and only 2 other tables, service was SLOW. Being Korean, I've been to my share of Korean restaurants uptown and downtown and Korean food doesn't take that long to cook, so I was disappointed. Prices look standard for these two meals. Restaurant looks old, not very clean, but kitchen is open to the public, which I like to see. The service seems to be manned by the owners' two kids, so this may be why it's slow.
We ordered GamJaTang and beef Bibimbap. The GamJaTang was alright, portion was above-average and the broth was a bit salty. The pork was cooked alright. Personally, if you want good GamJaTang, go to Owl of Minerva. Next, the Bibimbap didn't have the right proportions of veggie & meat to rice, but I liked the kochujang sauce they made that came with it. Usually restaurants make it too spicy but they made it just right. Too much rice, not enough meat and veggies but I was hungry, so a somewhat satisfying meal.
I don't know if I'd come back. I'd go for other Korean restaurants before this one.
