I took advantage of their lunch special, ordering the aloha chicken, while my friend opted for bossam. The warm and gracious server welcomed us with cups of complimentary hot barley tea, served up generous portions, and asked if we wanted more sides whenever she saw we were running low. The chicken was very tasty and had texture, with perfect accompaniments of sweet potato/macaroni salad and cole slaw. Bossam was also on point, paired with kimchi on the more fermented/tangy side.
Despite the edgy, dark ambience -- they were going for gastropub -- this place serves up simple, well-made Korean dishes. It's clear that the restaurant has built quite the goodwill, as there seemed to be many repeat customers. Not unexpected, given the quality of the food and warm service. I'll definitely be back.
