Twas my first time visiting this Korean restaurant! I'm so happy that I got to come here because I was craving for delicious tofu soup! I was wondering whether they can do it for vegetarian style and they did it for me!My wife got a bowl of vegetarian bibimbap and it was very good as well!I love that they gave us so much traditional side dishes and they are all good! I'll love to come back here for tofu soup!! Come visit and enjoy your meal Cheers and keep up the good work!

Galbi was tender, smokey and delicious! Spicy pork was good but nothing extraordinary. Tofu soup was a bit bland but good enough for me because I usually don't like my soup too salty. It was comforting enough. I liked their potato side dish as well. Quick and fast service. Not overly friendly but not rude. Low-key vibe. Definitely a little hole in the wall, hidden gem spot. I would definitely come back to try their other dishes.

My friend took me to this small, family-owned Korean restaurant over the weekend, and I'm so glad that she did! Some might call this place a "hole-in-wall" location but I truly enjoyed every dish that we got, especially the complimentary banchan dishes. We asked for refills on some of the banchan dishes and the staff was very friendly/generous and did not hesitate one bit to give us the additional requested refills. I really liked the texture of the rice noodles in the Jabchae dish and the LA Galbi Short Ribs were grilled to perfection with such tender pieces! I did wish that the onions were grilled as well, but I'll be back again and might request it next time! If you want some homemade, authentic Korean food that's priced right and with generous portions, you'll enjoy your experience at this restaurant! :)

I had the #10, Dolsot - Bibimbab for lunch. Pro's: lots of food and service was fast. Cons: Not much beef in the dish, rice wasn't 'sticky/burnet' on bottom of pot and the dish didn't have a great deal of taste that I've experienced with other restaurants. Plus the menu prices online are cheaper than what was on the menu we were handed. Sorry, but that needs to be looked at quickly otherwise people might call it a bait and switch tactic.We thought the meals were 'good', not great. The 3 condiments (potatoes, cucumber & kim chee) were good but at other local restaurants they always offer to refill them, but not here.Still, they had a varied menu but wish they would have a lunch menu for lighter mid-day meals instead of a higher priced, larger portion, dinner meal.

Seafood Pancake was too egg-y. Kalbi LA tasted okay, lack of grill action and flavor. Soondubu tofu with pork was served with seafood, it was okay as well.

You know the Korean food is good when we went on a random weekday lunch and we were one of the only tables that didn't speak Korean. This is definitely a mom and pop restaurant with the sweetest lady taking our orders and making sure we were comfortable. The portion sizes are very large and nicely flavored. The sizzling hot bibimbap really hit the spot on a cold rainy day

Best kimchi jjigae in town!!! Not bitter, and spice is well tolerable. The bibimbap was good, I enjoy that the sauce is on the side and can be put to your liking. Their banchan is very well made too. Staff is kind, and restaurant is comforting

Wooowza! Their cold noodles are really good and it was so refreshing, especially from the Austin heat.The noodles were chewy and the vinegar added that extra flavor.The lady who served us was extremely nice and even offered to teach me how to eat the noodles. I would definitely come back the next time I'm in town!
