" This place is a hidden gem and offers some of the best Korean food I've had outside of Korea! The spicy tofu soup was an explosion of flavors, while the bulgogi was tender and flavorful. The service was top-notch; the owners were super accommodating. The atmosphere is small but inviting. I highly recommend giving it a try! " (*Curated Review*)
