My only regret is not coming here sooner ! Its in the town and I ordered online for pickup, I was able to find parking easily nearby. I picked several meals and all of them exceptional, the chicken katsu with curry sauce was delicious the portion sizes are really generous with a small side dish I was completely full. I've known the owner for several years, a genuinely really nice guy, and he does know his Korean cusine it tastes authentic and great flavours. The price was brilliant i paid under £50 for 3 meals and sides, i saved the bulgolgi for the next day and it was still delicious ! I can honestly say that this is one of the best korean food experiences i have had outside of Korea that includes London Geneva and Prauge ! I will be coming back and hopefully not putting too much weight on ! : Thanks again for the great food and exceptional prices. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5

Just discovered this place today because the korean resto we used to go to is closed. We ordered tteokbokki, bulgogi, spicy pork, and katsu curry chicken donburi and we loved every bit of it! Highly recommended and we’ll definitely be back.

A hidden gem for deliciously authentic Korean food. I had the spicy pork bibimbap, it was bursting with flavour with just the right level of spice. The staff are so lovely and helpful and passionate about their food! Don’t waste your money elsewhere. I’ll definitely be back.
