Came here on the 2nd day. Wings were great- our order was mixed up so we got some drums instead of wings. We mentioned it to our server and they fixed it for us. The drums were drier than the wings, I recommend doing the wings- much juicier. Both flavors are worth trying but the spicy on day 2 was very hot and the sauce was thin and didn't have a hint of sweetness. It was missing something or had too much of something, didn't seem like it was 100% together....The soy garlic was perfect. We had the Japchae (glass noodles with marinated beef and crunchy veggies) and it came out piping hot and was great. Just how Mom used to make it. Radish was not on the plate when the wings came out. Rice was a little dry.
Our service was slow but that doesn't necessarily mean it was our server, we were told the kitchen was a bit overwhelmed and they had us wait 10 minutes before they sat us even though the restaurant had available seating- which is totally OK! I rather them do that than seat everyone and have even longer ticket times. It's better for everyone that way, at first.
So, since this place is brand new, be prepared to wait to get seated and for the process to be slow, but the food is worth it. Expect it to be a longer wait during peak hours on weekends. Front door is super nice and our server was too. NO TAKE OUT AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW.
I would give the whole experience a 3.5 but the food was a solid 4, which I consider very impressive on a soft opening. Can't wait to come back. This is going to be the best place in Charlotte for Korean fried chicken and traditional Korean food! So much better than that "Korean" restaurant in South End.
*I would like to point out that the tip suggestions at the bottom of the receipt is incorrect. The percentages should be based on the grand total, we would have under tipped if it wasn't for us doing the math ourselves instead of trusting the suggestion.*
