We wont be going back there. Careless and offhand ish service, slow food delivery (with a completely empty restaurant), they only brought water when we were almost done eating and they were impossible to flag before then as the crew was hanging out amongst themselves and did not really pay attention to us. To add insult to injury, the entree came before appetizer, bibimbap was B minus, $14 pork belly appetizer was really not great. One bibimbap, one dumpling appetizer, one pork belly appetizer, no drinks=$44.48 and not a pleasant time. Avoid.

I live nearby and come by here twice now. First time we had makgeoli (rice liquor), vegetable japchae (sweet potato glass noodles), and bulgogi. The service brings six side dishes (kimchi, pickled sprouts, tofu, cucumbers, etc.) constantly, so youre always munching on something. The japchae was our favorite dish. Total was fifty bucks. Second time around, I came with 3 friends and we ordered the japchae, chicken bibimbop and kalbi (beef short ribs). Everything was fresh, hot and delicious. Total was seventy bucks.

Food is good, staff is friendly, however a piece of squid was attached to my Wifes chicken. For me the food was seasoned well the spicy items were very enjoyable. Staff made sure they were attentive and pleasant. The price was a bit on the upscale side and was a bit high but will come here again on occasion. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Omg!!! This is the best Korean cuisine in New York. The server was a really amazing woman. I told her the food was great, and then she gave me free Ginger Ale and let me stay as long as I want because I was working with a computer. This is my first time to leave a review in my whole life, so you know how impressing this restaurant is.

My wife and I love Korean food and we had a fantastic meal here, the best Korean we have had in NYC so far. We shared the Kalbi stone BBQ and the seafood pancake, both were excellent and the service was outstanding. We will definitely be back.

The bibimbap was very good! The steamed dumplings were quite tasty as well. Service was excellent and the staff was very friendly, even helping me with some Korean phrases I practiced with them. I will visit again next time Im in town.

Good bibimbap in a variety of formats here ranging from traditional to spicy pork. The hot stone was very hot and made for excellent crisp on the rice. The ambiance is bifurcated japanese and korean. Service is good. No complaints.

Great ambience, great Korean food. They have a bar and offer happy hour from 4-7. They have lots of tables, even tables for large groups. Service is fast and excellent. Glad we found this Korean restaurant in Brooklyn.

Im not too familiar with Korean place and went there with my colleagues. Only liked the chicken wings appetizers and the rest wasnt that impressive. May be I have to go there again to try something new.

Its not a Korean food. I got a concern for discounting K-food. There was only terrible cook and unkown copycat menu. Service was also bad. Ive visited on my NY trip from SEOUL. miss ..

The menus was confused, and the service was very spotty despite the place being basically empty. They said they had a new chef, but it seems like they need a new front of the house too.

The food here is so good. Every time Ive been here its so tasty and well made, perfectly seasoned, great balance in flavors and textures. This is the best comfort Korean in the hood.

Very good bi bim bap! Solid Jap chae noodles. The ban chan is not great. Short ribs were not the best, but good enough for Korean food in Brooklyn. Skip the seafood pancake.

Good ramen and bibimbop dishes, but when we went the single waitress was overwhelmed. Not her fault, get her some help during busy hours.

Their food is bland and lacking flavor, they will deliver and not include sauce. Save time and order elsewhere...

So many things on the menu i wanted to try. Will be back. The $16 flavored shoju is a caraffe. Decent deal.
