The onion and seafood pancake arrived and my second bite reveled a 12 inch long human hair cooked into the pancake. The dish was taken away and replaced a few minutes later with a less crispy, greasier version. I understand that this can happen in a restaurant kitchen but this is a place that charges $33 for a noodle salad. I was further disappointed by the lack of recognition of the error by anyone in the restaurant (other than quickly replacing the dish). No visit from a chef or manager, no offer of a free dessert, no removing the offending dish from the check. It’s easy to see why they are no longer a Michelin Star kitchen

The food at this restaurant is amazing and the atmosphere is fantastic. I would definitely recommend coming here! This might be the best Korean food we've ever... read more The food at this restaurant is amazing and the atmosphere is fantastic. I would definitely recommend coming here!

Glad they brought back the delicious bing bread for closing night. Chef Kim embodies hospitality. read more Glad they brought back the delicious bing bread for closing night. Chef Kim embodies hospitality.
