I used to live in Koreatown in Los Angeles, and how I miss walking to multiple soondubu restaurants! This place hits the spot,... it's the closest thing I've had on the Peninsula to LA's Koreatown. Each banchan was seasoned well. I got the kimchi jigae, itdoesn't have meat in it, which was what I needed today. I got it at "spicy" level spice, next time I'm going for "very spicy"just so I can get the spice level I got used to in Koreatown. Overall a nutritionally well balanced meal and just oh sodelicious, especially on a rainy day like this. I'll be back! They gave me an option of either water or tea. I opted for tea.It's hot corn tea and they didn't charge me for it, bonus! The restaurant wasn't crowded at all when I came, it was just me andone other table. The doors are wide open and the cold air does come through, but if you're COVID conscious, this is a goodthing. Just make sure to bring a warm jacket. Read more

A nice restaurant. We came for the tofu soup because I had been craving Korean tofu stew for a few days. The side dishes that... come along in a Korean BBQ restaurant is always w appetizers to me. The best is always kim chi. We order different tofu soups,one spicy seafood soup and one white beef soup, but the waiter got the wrong order for me. We ended up with two seafood tofusoups, just one spicy and one non-spicy. Both are good nonetheless. Read more

Went in during testing hours. Owner was super nice. They?re testing the hours of 2 to 5, where most places close. Great and... personal service, and the food was on point too. If they weren?t open, there?ll be no place to eat and I?ll starve to death Read more

Spot on with the Galbi and Tofu soup. Galbi was tender and not too sweet. They also have this fermented tofu as a side that I... never had before. It was delish. It also looks like they?ll be serving poke in the future. 4 stars for consistency. Service wasgreat and food came out fairly quickly. Worth going back to for future quick meals. Read more

Really tasty and flavorful Korean food. The portions are also good and decently priced. The stone pot dishes came out REALLY hot... (the tofu stew was literally still boiling) which is amazing! Especially when you're cold and looking for something warm. Read more

Little Korean spot in a shopping center near my daughters new apartment. Two weeks from moving and she said she?s been her like... twice already so it must be good. And yes she was right!!! Food was delicious and tasty. The Seafood Dolsot Bibimbab had theright amount of spice. I would?ve like to have more than the one shrimp I got in mines though. Staff was awesome. Alwayschecking up on us. Will definitely be back. Read more

It's never too soon to go back and eat tasty Korean food at this quick-serving restaurant. Japchae was not overly saturate with... soy sauce and the spicy buckwheat noodles call for an extra napkin to wipe the red stains off after each bite. Add cold Koreanbeer to wash everythning down a little oppan gangnam style. Read more

Very bad. The quantity reduced a lot. I ordered two ramen soup. First one decently qty and this what I noticed in the second... cup, it was just little more than half. When I called the restaurant, the guy told me I got extra in the first one. One staroverall as they make good food. They just ignored what customer is saying. I have gone to this place several times in the pastfor takeout. This is not the first time I ordered here. Read more
