I love this place. I am not an afficionado of of Korean food and so cannot speak to authenticity. All I can say is that the food is d@mn good. The atmosphere is very casual and unimposing. Certainly not fancy but not a dive. And given that it is not too big the service is attentive, fast and straightforward. I really love it. Have been a handful of times. Will go back many more times.
Wow, what a gem for Cleveland this place is great . I ordered takeout, and it was great , very neatly packed . I ordered number 13, which is a fried pork with steamed rice and came with a nice little assortment of pickled vegetables. The inside is super cozy , and decor nice . If you never eaten here you must try a wide assortment of Korean dishes on the menu .This is the real deal, and if you're visiting Cleveland, just a short Uber ride from Downtown.
Hidden gem of a restaurant, with very tasty food and also a drink menu. It’s a hybrid hot pot and traditional cuisine Korean restaurant. K-Pop music and diverse crowd. Be patient because there was only one server. Worth the wait. Ample parking.
THE BEST!!! I have come here twice, once in January 2024 and then October 2024. First time I shared the Boodae Jigae with my partner and it was plenty of food for the two of us. Some of the best Korean ramen I’ve ever had and made me crave it so much we came back. Then second visit, i ordered haemul pajeon and kimchi jigae. Perfect amount of spice with plenty of quality kimchi and stayed nice and hot the entire time it took me to eat it. The pork was great too and I’m not even a fan of pork most of the time. The haemul pajeon was so delicious and more than enough for two people. Better to share with 4 people so that way each person gets 2 pieces. Service was quick and kind too both times. I love this place and wouldn’t mind driving 40 min again for the food! (P.S. the pickled assortment is fantastic!! Especially the cucumbers!)
The food and service are amazing! If you like authentic Korean cuisine, this is your place. I brought my 13 yo daughter here for her first experience with Korean food. She was nervous but she is now in love! I recommend the Ssam Bab and bulgogi for beginners. With the sticky rice, it's perfection! Can't wait to go back.
Absolutely loved the food here! I'm not an experienced Korean barbecue enthusiast, but this was definitely a quality experience! My friends did all the ordering for me, so I can't attest to the quality of specific dishes or choices, but I can say that I liked everything that I ate. For just specifically Korean barbecue (as in the kind that you cook at your table), there were only two options, so they made that simple for you. We also ordered several different dishes for the table, various proteins mixed in delicious sauces and paired with seasoned vegetables. The restaurant was on the smaller side, but it easily sat our party of 9. Service was fast and attentive.
What a great place! My sister in law is Korean and she took me here out of the blue! Super nice people! Great service and the food is spot on! Perfect size portion! Addendum: Second time here and even better! Never have done the table grilling thing. Kinda fun, ain’t gonna lie! And all are so nice and welcoming!
Best Authentic Korean food!! I cannot describe how fantastic the flavors were! Just omg. So good. So good. This was such a great experience and I can't wait to go back! They also have a parking lot in case anyone is curious about driving into Cleveland! Thank you for a great meal!
