James MorrisJanuary 7, 2015Below average quality Korean. Soho ones are better. Still, first Korean in the area. Girls are hot.UpvoteDownvote
Asahi SatoOctober 13, 2015Waiters are not very friendly, serving sundubu jjigae without rice. Food is OK but always having bad experience.UpvoteDownvote
Alia AnsariNovember 4, 2018It’s overrated. I went in expecting a lot but I was underwhelmed.UpvoteDownvote
Dirk HillNovember 16, 2016Tolles kleines koreanisches Restaurant in Shoreditch. Fast ausschließlich asiatisches Publikum. Sehr beliebt und voll. Wartezeit vor der Tür ca. 20 min. Authentisches sehr aromatisches Essen.

"Very good flat white. One of the best I’ve had in a long time in London. Loved the roast. Unfortunately the wifi wasn’t working in time of my visit."
Kristina V - 9.1
"Coffee, food, atmosphere, interior, all really nice. Great place for a business lunch even if can be a bit loud."
Daniel Kolodziejczak - 7.4
"One of the best pubs in the area! Good music, ever changing guest beers, additional seating upstairs. Never too busy, great unpretentious crowd. Good little date spot too for a couple of drinks."
