" I came here expecting a culinary masterpiece and I was somewhat disappointed. Yes, the food had its moments, like the kalbi jjim which was decent. However, some dishes felt like they were missing that authentic touch. The service was somewhat inattentive, especially given the crowd. I wouldn't rush back here, but it wasn’t entirely a bad experience either. " (*Curated Review*)

" So disappointed after hearing so many good things. The food felt generic and lacked real flavor. Not sure what part of it is supposed to be authentic. The service also felt off; the server seemed uninterested. Definitely won’t return anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
