    Finally a Korean restaurant in the neighborhood (bonus points for being great). Ample seating and attentive service. Stone pot bibimbap is excellent! Fried chicken is good but not quite Bonchon level

    The fried chicken is good but not quite the same as bonchon chicken. The sashimi bap was surprisingly good! They also offered us complimentary raspberry rice wine.

    Not to be mistaken with Momofuku Ssäm Bar. The fried chicken (gluten-free option) is pretty good.

    We left after 50 minutes, bc no sign of our food. Other tables did the same. Avoid this restaurant.

    Food is good but not amazing. Space is huge so awesome for groups. Ambience is nice but a little sloppy. Overall I feel like a 7/10 is fair.

    Good fried chicken. Different from Boka. Banchan was okay but service was great. Hope it does well!

    Sashimi rice bowl is too fresh to deal with. Fresh like deliciousness. Service was so kind I'd return just for the people. Ordered their signature BBQ chicken which was is a bit dry but very tasty.

    Do not eat here! Chicken wings were cold, ramen was missing any pork belly, and they got our order totally wrong, and the manager refused to make amends. Awful food, awful service...avoid!
