What bothered me most was the smoke—there’s barely any ventilation, and it honestly felt hard to breathe at times. Food-wise, the sundubu was alright, nothing special. But the marinated galbi? Total letdown. It looked like dog food and was so tough I could barely chew it. Tasted like they cooked frozen meat straight out of the freezer with the thawed water rubbery and just off. I told the server, and she took it back, only to bring it right back and say it was “perfectly cooked.” You can decide for yourself (check the photo). Btw this was $38 Yeah, definitely not coming back. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
