Valentina GregoliApril 17, 2017Very nice design, but not authentic Korean cuisine. Nevertheless the food was good; the meat was very tasty!

Cristina DinozoNovember 30, 2011The carafe of chum churum soju is a great deal. And don't skip whatever pork belly special they've got going on--always delish!

Nicholas TopolinskiMarch 9, 2017Get the garlic chicken wings, pork belly sliders and kimchi fried rice! Soooo good
Shindy COctober 5, 2013A very special, small place with fantastic double-sided modern or more homestyle food options.
Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014Portions are small and meant to be shared, tapas style-only, and instead of sangria accompany it with soju or sake. Read more

CompassMay 15, 2014Quirky and classic Korean dishes from Hooni Kim. The bulgogi burgers are a must-try.
JD MaloneSeptember 10, 2017Menu seems to be tricky for non locals so read carefully so you understand the portion size you are ordering.
Lawrence LenihanJanuary 12, 2012Went for lunch. Buggogi sliders were amazing. Loved hamachi salad. Terrific pot stickers. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more- Alex AurittApril 12, 2011Excellent. As an enthusiastic carnivore, it's unusual for me to support ordering a second round of tofu as dessert. But it's justified here.
Johan MattssonSeptember 29, 2015I tried the whelk salad, really spicy! The girl at the bar was really nice :)

"Rare Korean seafood dishes. For the fresh seafoods, highly recommend to try makhwe and octopus. Also recommend getting Hap-Cheon Pork Soup and Daesun soju for the local Busan flavor."
