⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Nicola Sutanto
Comforting mom & pop kind of k-fried chicken restaurant. We had the spicy & garlic soy fried chicken, small size came in 8 pcs of thighs. Super affordable and tasty too! We also had japchae, portion was super small more like banchan not side; tastes good & really strong on the sesame oil.

Ordered their spicy creamy ramen, chicken katsu, golden fried chicken, cheese sticks, fish katsu burger with fries and sweet & sour chicken. Everything came out surprisingly fast and was good. Thank you so much for your friendly customer service, we will be back again for sure to try more things off the menu.

2023: Contrary to appearances, this is a Korean food place! Was really hoping to get some cheese wings and soju. Although they had neither, I tried their beef ramen, a few of the fried chichens, katsu burger, japchae, and sweet rice doughnuts. The ramen noodles were excellent, but the broth and additions left something to be desired. The fried chicken was good, as was the katsu and japchae. The sweet rice doughnuts were delicious! Definitely try those. Update 2025: I've been back a few times and wanted to update this review. Ramen is Japanese. This is a Korean restaurant. That being said, stick with the Korean foods on the menu and you will be very happy. Budae jjigae and ttoek kkochi are excellent here. I still strongly recommend the sweet rice doughnuts and the sweet rice tea!
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Denny Liu
The food is better than expected. Korean fried chicken is great! Ramen is good to try.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Daniel DeLuca
Very clean and modern casual Asian food. Only being opened up for the past few months, it's a shame there isn't more people coming to sit down and eat. The menu is very simple and they know what their specialty is, and its chicken. I ordered the Chicken Katsu, and it was very spot on with what I expected. Good atmosphere, and good food.
