Reviews
Food was delicious. I got it to go and had to eat in my hotel room. The cucumber kimchi and cabbage kimchi were amazing. The bulgogi was flavorful and not dry. They didn't skimp on the rice. Parking lot is hit or miss around the area. There are some regular parking spots right in front for those incapable of parallel parking and there are a couple of parallel parking spots for the brave and capable. Only three tables for sitting. The lady was busy taking orders and making your food. So be patient! You'll get amazing food though!
This is my second time ordering from here, the food is sooo good, I gave 4 stars because of the service. I sent my son to get the food and he had some questions for the lady taking the order, she was obviously frustrated and seemed like she didn't want to address his questions at all. I gave them a pass for this because first time I went she was very helpful. Ordered Korean Spicy Wings: These are not on the menu so you'll have to ask for them and you absolutely should. Flavor is a combo of barbeque and Teriyaki that the best way I can describe them with a little kick of spicy. Beef Dumplings: Really good a little crispy on the outside, wish they came with some dipping sauce. Hush Puppies: I don't usually care for hush Puppies but these were very good great flavor. Shrimp Basket: The shrimp was really good, butterfly and fried, soft on the inside crispy outside and great flavor. I really like the food here and will visit again.
Spicy Korean wings really good! They don't have an option for sides besides hush puppies and fries. I'd definitely go back for the wings though!
Highly recommend this authentic Korean restaurant! It is a family owned and small business, mostly they do take out for customers, but they have few tables inside you can eat there if you like. The couple owners are very friendly, they take the time to cook the food fresh, the food we order are very delicious, try their famous chicken wings and so crunchy and the fries are good as well. Beef bugugi with rice is good also. The side dishes are very fresh and taste good. We don't mind to travel far to just eat their food. You will not disappoint and we will definitely be back soon to try different house special menu like the fried rice and ramen.
***THEY CLOSED. Owners retired.*** They will be missed! Visit WopsHops Next door for great wings. $1 on Thursdays.
