| - This restaurant is near my work so I often come here for lunch and sometimes even dinner with my coworkers, friends, or my wife.
Overall I think this place serves great food from its side dishes such as the honey glazed potatoes to the kimchi. Even staple dishes like the pork bone soup ., bulgogi bento boxes, and bibambap rice bowls are recommended items on their menu.
They have a lunch menu for around $10. Most of their items are between $8-15. With the side dishes, you should be quite full with ordering one item. The bento boxes include salad and dumplings. However, when I ordered my bento box with bulgogi, they forgot to give me soup in one of the sections of the bento and replaced it with a dumpling!
They never have the Korean beer, even though it's on the menu.
What isn't the greatest it's a service. Once you get seated it takes a long time to get water or even the menus. When you come here, expect to wait a lot. Even the service buttons that's located at each table does not work all the time, which means you have to press the service button at least twice to get someone to help you. They sometimes forget to bring you what you asked so you have to remind them again. We had a group of six one time and we ask for 6 glasses of water and they only came with five. We never got the 6th glass.
In terms of food, one of my friends ordered a chicken katsu which did not come with the sauce, and we had to tell them to take it back and add the sauce back. For the side dishes the potatoes with honey is always a hit, but with a party of 6 they only gave us 4 potatoes and expected us to share. Not sure how that makes any sense.
The food itself is great, very flavorful and spicy just like I expect it to be. It is full of authentic decor in the restaurant, wooden booths and the flat Korean chopsticks . My favorite is by far the pork bone soup, it spicy and goes really well with the rice that they give you and the side dishes of bean sprouts, fish curd, kimchi, and seaweed. I will probably keep coming back because it's close by but you just have to watch out for the service that you get.
