This location is a hidden gem in Aberdeen that I feel doesn’t get a lot of credit. The food is so good makes me feel like I’m back home in Korea. The new soy wings they have are my current obsession along with the pickled jalapeños absolutely mouth watering. It’s a great spot to stop in for pick up or dine in and enjoy a cup of hot tea while you wait for food. The ladies and gentlemen that run this establishment always have the best service turning out quality dishes with a smile. Everything I’ve tried hits so stop on in after shopping at Ollie’s and find something that’ll be your new favorite meal

★★★★☆ 4.0 Melodic Kalimba · Aug 2025

This restaurant is a staple in Aberdeen. I came here and it was quickly packed at 12 pm. The place isn’t decorated and is very simple inside. There is a side bar where one can get marinated cucumber, pickled radish, and kimchi. Tea is also free. I ordered the pork bulgogi and it was delicious, albeit a bit over sweet. The portions are large and I left full. They have many different delicious Korean dishes, including the Korean fried chicken. I’d go here again!

This restaurant is a hidden gem with surprisingly affordable pricing and exceptional food. Every dish we tried was delicious. Love the self serving table too! Highly recommend for food lovers who want to eat well without breaking the bank. We'll definitely be back the next time we drive by.

★★★★★ 5.0 Eddie Wan · Feb 2025

Delicious authentic Korean food! So glad we found this place and checked it out. No frills place, but the food was really great. And the free kimchi and cucumbers are so good too. The place seems to be a mom and pop shop ran by a Korean couple. Would definitely come again if we're in the area in the future.

★★★★★ 5.0 Amelia Fortmayer · Jan 2026

Food is tasty. Very casual, order at the counter and they bring your food to you. The ladies that now run it are very nice and welcoming. If you went a lot pre-covid it has changed for the better for sure. The new ventilation was a great move. If you liked it years ago, you should like it even more now! Get a order of kimbap with your meal and enjoy!
