I tried Daeji Galbi(grilled pork ribs), and it was one of the best dishes I’ve had in a while. It was presented amazing and the portion was just right. I’ve been to other Korean restaurants, but this place is up at the top of my list from now.

Very good food, maybe a little pricier than other similar restaurants. Great service - staff helped to ensure that our food was barbecued just right. Maybe could have been a wider selection of accompaniments to the meat. Overall, very happy with the whole experience and would go again.
