Crispy, juicy, perfectly done. But that’s where the praise ends. The Korean tartar is a misfire — not raw, not tartar, just burnt beef pretending to be something it’s not. The chicken mandoo leaves a weird aftertaste that overstays its welcome. And the salad? Decent, but bland. Bottom line: go if you’re curious, but outside of the shrimp, there’s not much worth remembering — or recommending.

Then, our barbeque beef tartare came out with the rice and ssam salad. It was an incredible combination of flavors. We finished off with homemade ice creams which were amazing. It made for a great evening with my wife. I would absolutely come back. Price per person: €40–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
