I like the restaurant! We ordered Jja jang myun, Tang su yuk, and Jjambbong since we were craving so bad. Even though this restaurant is not a korean Chinese restaurant specialized for these dishes, they were pretty good! I like jjambbong best. I wish the thickness of the jjajang sauce is little thicker, but it tasted smoky and good.

Excellent food. I got the bulgogi pork lunch box and it was extremely filling. A lot of meat and not a ton of rice, which I appreciate. My cousins loved their bibimbap and soup cold noodles. Great service too, as the ladies working checked up on our table often.

We have been enjoying this restaurant for a number of years. The service when they aren’t very busy is decent, but when they are busy it’s not great (everyone is still friendly). We don’t go there for the service nor atmosphere, we go for the good food. My opinion one of the better Korean places in Tampa, more traditional than the newer Korean fried chicken places which have popped up over the last couple of years and the food is consistently good. They do a good job with the traditional common dishes like bulgogi seafood pancake, japchae, etc., so if you are looking more traditional, then go here. The atmosphere is something else. It’s an old home converted to a restaurant with questionable building skills. So don’t visit here for 5 star service nor if you are looking for a 5 star atmosphere. However you will always get consistently good Korean food which wins for me.

One of the best Korean spots I've eaten at! We had the beef bulgogi, kimchi pancake, and kimchi mandu. The portions were very generous and the price was very fair. We left with a ton of leftovers that the waitress very helpful packed up for us. I highly recommend it if you are nearby and want great Korean food!

I live in NYC, we have incredible Korean restaurants and even across the river in Fort Lee. This place was impressive. It was the best seafood pajeon I've ever had and the Bo Ssam was excellent . The kimchi is homemade as well and memorably good. I will 100% come back here if in town.

I came in craving extra extra extra dipping sauce for my Korean pork belly wrap — and then suddenly remembered… there’s someone else, who always gave me extra extra extra everything, without me ever having to ask. Not here. Not today. Just a quiet memory of a place that somehow still feels like home. Maybe there are still people in this world who’d treat me this kindly. But someone who does it quietly, without much word, and always just right… Can there really be a second one like that? Thank you for the little things. They never go unnoticed.
