Customer Reviews
Myself and three others ate here, September 1st, 2025. Cashew chicken was yummy. Thai drink was delicious (PRO TIP: ask for little or no ice). As you can see, mine had too much ice. 😃
The atmosphere is friendly; the surroundings are well-kept and beautiful. Not a lot of traffic at the restaurant by the time we visited, or at least the day we went. Service could have been better. Some confusion about the orders, but all worked out. They did not charge us for the extra plate. Suchi tasted good. Tteokkbokki was not was I was used to. Rice cakes were swimming in the juice instead of a heavy paste. Beef Bulgogi was good. I asked for chicken bulgogi, and the lady said it was spicy. I had never had spicy bulgogi before. Probably they didn't want to cook it or didn't have it. I would appreciate that excuse better. They picked three things out of the menu that they did not have. The kid's menu was not available. Bulgogi tacos were good.
This place was interesting, first off the food was top notch! So, if you don't mind the wait then you're in for a treat! We had a late lunch ~13:30, the owner/cook/waitress never came out to seat us. A couple sitting the next table over brought us menus just as we were getting ready to leave and then walked in the back to let the owner know that we were there. She came out took our order in a very disgruntal manner. From start to finish we were there for 1 1/2... So much for a quick lunch. Also, they only accepted cash that day. We really had the feeling like we weren't welcomed...
I have eaten at a lot of Korean restaurants but this one is by far the worst. I heard them microwaving out food, and then the taste was weird like this gamey flavor which was very off. We couldn’t eat the food so we just left and it cost $75 which was a waste and decided to never go back.
Came here on a recommendation from a friend and I'm glad we did. The gentlemen who pretty much ran the whole front/back of the house took care of us from beginning to end. The sesame chicken wasn't overly sweet like other places and had their own unique taste while the Mongolian beef had a nice level of heat! We will be back for sure.
