Reviews
We were craving bossam (thin sliced boiled pork), and wanted to try this place out. We definitely were not disappointed! The nice, older ladies who worked there had us seated immediately with barley tea served to us free of charge. The Yigah Bossam we ordered was huge, and could definitely feed at least 3 hungry people or 4 not-so hungry people. It came with oysters too, which were delicious! Will definitely be back!
Came here on a friday night at around 7:30 and there was no wait! we got the tteok mandu guk and the korean style tonkatsu. they were both HUUUGE portions! i maybe finished half of my soup. The tonkatsu was also so big!! we were surprised. they both were very delicious though! the servers were very nice and would often ask us if we want more side dishes. I would come here again!
Restaurant is small but spacious. Very clean and bright. We came in for lunch. The restaurant was a little less than half full. We were sat almost immediately. Large menu. We ordered 1 solleuntang with brisket, 1 with intestines, and 1 bulgogi. Everything came out pretty quick. Our soups were delicious. The broth was nice and milky and not terribly beefy (although beefy). We had our sea salt, black pepper, and green onions already on our table. The bulgogi was really good too. It was served with a side of bean paste and whole leaf lettuce for wrapping. Yum! The banchans were good too. We asked for extra radish kimchi for our soups. Will definitely come back
Solid Korean eatery with hearty and large dishes! I called in for to go for yukdaejang on a monday for noon, when i came the order was ready and soup was hot. To go order came with 4 banchans, glass noodle soup, and rice. Yukdaejang was not overly spicy and tons of veggies and meat, they don't skimp out the portions on here! For $23 this is well worth it. I didn't even finish half of this bowl. The ladies working there are nice and food is tasty, would love to try other dishes here my next visit!
Always Delicious Galbi Tang! Highly recommend. Always Delicious Galbi Tang! Highly recommend.
