" What a find! A classic Korean spot that takes you back to Seoul. The Dak Galbi was cooked perfectly, and the additional cheese made a delightful difference! The owners were friendly and offered good service despite being busy. Portions are large and worth the price; we had plenty to take home. I’ll definitely return for a more leisurely meal next time.
