One of the finest Korean restaurants in town. Impeccably clean and tidy with exceptional service that's both prompt and friendly. The dishes are...
Get some Korean among the many Asian restaurants in Andersonville. It's got plenty of smaller and bigger options to choose from. Jin Ju is a pretty nice...
Bugogi: a bit too sweet Steamed dumpling: skin's too dry and tough since it's takeout Pork belly with Brussels sprouts: flavor's decent but very small...
Overall, our experience was very mid. The staff was friendly but it took them 15 mins just to get water on our table. We ordered bibimbop, wings, rice cakes, and spare ribs. The food basically all came at once which was overwhelming, and we weren’t blown away by the meal. The wings were actually drumsticks which was yummy but way too much food, the rice cakes were good, but the bibimbop was a miss.
I like the vibe in here. It was welcoming and fun, yet not too tightened up like a bar feeling where you can lay back a little and enjoy the evening. As I don’t drink, I ordered just my favorite Korean dish that always make me happy, bibimbub with raw squid that served in a hot bowl and a scallion pancake, I liked them both. And my friend ordered soup with soju and she said she enjoyed it too… We will come back!
