When I first tried soondubu here in high school (2009?), I instantly fell in love and it became my go-to restaurant whenever I went out with friends. Around two years or so ago, all the staff changed and everything has been going downhill since then :(
My biggest complaint is the overall cleanliness of the place. Just the thought of the aggressive flies hovering around the whole time combined with the strong soap smell in the bowls that overpower even the soondubu makes me shudder. The kimchi has gotten so bad that I actually avoid eating it and the extra spicy option is nowhere near what it used to be. The amount of meat has decreased and what little meat there is is freezer burned.
It makes me sad, how did it get so bad so fast?
