I had to check this place out as it literally is down the street from me and I read such great reviews on it.
I was underwhelmed by the decor and set-up of the restaurant. It was quite awkward and a bit uncomfortable as we sat right next to another table who could hear everything. Awwwwkkkkwwaaaarrrddd!
We ordered the Korean pancake and the Beef Bulgogi. We received the Korean side dishes to start and I found them all quite tasty. The Kimchi wasn't overly spicy which was nice for me but I know my boyfriend enjoys it much spicier.
Both dishes were tasty and flavourful. I sort of wished the bulgogi came with a larger order of rice as it could have used it. The pancake was full of seafood which was awesome and the dipping sauce it came with complemented it perfectly. The restaurant got really smokey when all the hot dishes came out as they come on hot plates. Especially the Galbi - korean ribs! Wow! The place was full of smoke!
We noticed the other table ordered the bim bim bap and we were disappointed to see that it didn't come in the heavy stone bowls. That's what truly makes that dish!
I don't think I'd return for a dining experience but would probably do take-out for the convenience.
