| - The Service: My first experience with this place, was on a weekend, we stood at the front of the restaurant for 5 minutes, no one acknowledged us or even looked our way so we left. I figured they were just very busy so we decided to try again another time.
I came here with my partner last night and was told to sit anywhere... in the front of the restaurant. The restaurant is divided into two sections, the main part of the restaurant with booths and a longer line of tables on the opposite end. Then, there's a divider and a more casual sitting area in the very front of the restaurant. We asked if we could sit in one of the booths and the server gave us a very curt "No." Why? It wasn't busy, there were 3 booths open!
I don't know if it was an age thing, or a casual dress thing. There was another group of girls who were ostracized to the front like us.They were trying to get the server's attention for a very long time to get their bill. One of the poor girls sat with her hand up in the air for 10 minutes.

The food: The food was delicious. We got a small order of soondae to share, I got the shank bone dumpling soup with noodles and my partner ordered the pork bone soup. My soup had a very simple taste but was very well prepared. There were a lot of side dishes and they were all very tasty. I ended up taking most of my soup to go because I filled up on the side dishes.
In terms of taste, this place was one of best I've tried in downtown Koreatown. The portions are very generous too.
Verdict: Would I come back? It's close to home so I may begrudgingly come back. Dinning out is more than just about the food for me, so this won't be my first choice.
TL:DR The food is good, the service is not friendly.
