As soon as we entered we were greeted warmly. Food was shown and recommendations were given. We Ordered Spicy squid Spicy chicken Bulgogi Pajeon and the Kim chi jeon Everything was made fresh and from scratch. With authentic and flavorful tastes We were so excited to eat that we didn’t even try to take pictures of the food. Will definitely be back. Thank you!

Just basically good Korean food. I ordered bulgogi split with japchae because I love them both. These are NOT traditionally spicy dishes. Both were very good. I ordered the kimchijeon which should have had some spicy kick but it did not. I received a tiny container of kimchi, which is standard in South Korea, and I was disappointed. I have spent my whole life eating Korean food, particularly kimchi, my mom was Korean. This kimchi has a nice flavor but it has not been fermented long enough nor does it have the spice I am used to having. I was disappointed that the kimchijeon was not spicy as it should have been. I have my own cayenne pepper and gochujang sauce at home so I used it liberally with my jeon. If you're looking for spicy foods, this may not be what you want. If you bring your spice with you, you'll love it! I have eaten many Korean foods that are not spicy, mama's Korean church on Sundays always serves home-cooked Korean dishes. The music was a little too loud for the small space. The owners are Korean and very friendly. I will be back for more!

Loved everything about this place. The Kimchijeon Kimchi Pancake was so good!! The kimchi pickles were also some of the best side I’ve ever had. It’s so hard to find good Korean food and this place checks every box. I can’t wait to come back and try the kimbap. 10/10

I made an online order for pickup. Surprisingly I made it across the street in good time. When I arrived to the restaurant, I was greeted by a pleasant gentleman. He confirmed who I was and what I had ordered. He told me it would be “5 minutes”. It was more like 10-15. When he came out, he explained that they wanted to make it fresh, my precious Kimbap. I told him no problem. Let me tell you… worth the wait!!! I’ve had Kimbop from other places and they were sooo mediocre. Joa is top notch! I can tell that the rest of their menu will be sooo worth it. I can’t wait for my next dish to try. And for those complaining about the galbi, I don’t think you understand how it’s eaten in Asian culture. We love to strip and suck the bone! Anyhoo, give this place a shot!!

Food - Galbi ribs were delicious and hit the spot. I was a little perplexed why would you put the bones in if they barely or had no meat on them. I would come back if the portions were twice what they were for meat. Or I would tack on a price for extra spare ribs. Service - great customer service. Atmosphere - was clean and nice.
