| - I came here on a Friday for a relatively late (8pm) dinner. It was pretty busy, which was a good sign.
Got seated promptly and got myself the pork bone soup. One of my go to Korean dishes that I love and use as a measure of the quality of food.
We got 5-6 appetizers to start us off and while none of them tasted bad, the quantity was severely limiting. In about 2 bites, I finished each dish off easily. Ordered some more and again, super small portions.
The pork bone soup was a good portion. The meat was cooked fairly well, came off the bone easily but didn't taste overcooked. I would say the spicyness level was moderate or even less spicy than most Korean places. The only thing that I was frustrated about was the lack of potatoes. I'm starting to see this as a trend in Korean restaurants where they stop giving potatoes in pork bone soup. Now I'm not too familiar with the traditional recipe, but back several years ago, you'd always get this huge piece of potato or several. Nowadays, you got nothing or a sliver of it even though in the menu it says that it comes with potatoes. With the dish being $10, I'm expecting them not to cheap out on it. I remember back in the day you'd pay $6 and get a huge portion of meat and potatoes. Now it's just meat. What's happening here...
Anyways, I give this place 3 stars because while the quality is decent, the appetizer portions are small and the prices are a little above average.
