Came here with the family for dinner. We've been reviewing the menu for some time, so we knew what we were going to get. We got the following for four people:Tempura-ShrimpKorean Spicy Udon (Jjampong) - not spicy, blandJajangmyeon (black bean noodle) - very sweet, watery.Tuna Party House SaladKorean King KatsuBento Deluxe - with Bulogi, sushi and crazy dragon rollSashimi - Yellowtail, Surf Clam, eggNigiri - Eel Okay, here's my thoughts on each of the items.Tuna Party, Sashimi & Nigiri - come here for sushi. Their prices are very reasonable. As a tuna lover, the tuna party was excellent option. Yellow tail, clam and eels were good as well. Bento Deluxe - this came with veggie/shrimp tempura, bulgogi, salad, 3 pcs of sushi and crazy dragon roll ($28). This is actually a lot of food for single person, definitely for two people. If I could recommend, skip bulgogi as the meat was tough and there were more veggies than meat itself. Tempura - they have shrimp, calamari, and vegetables. They do not have a mixed version - like veggies and two shrimps - so you'll need to order two items - one shrimp and the other veggies. I don't understand why they don't have veggies and shrimp tempura - please add it to the menu.Korean King Katsu - pork cutlet with dipping sauce, cabbage salad with 1000 island, rice, and three side items - fish cake, soybean sprouts and kimchi. This is something you can make at home, decent. Nothing special to write home about. Korean Spicy Udon - this is their version of Jjampong (spicy seafood noodles). It was not spicy at all, nephew said it tasted different than one he had few weeks ago. It's served with udon noodles, which had a different texture, but the concept was good. However, the veggies could use more "fire" taste, could have used more chili powder to give it more kick to the dish.Jajangmyeong - black bean noodles - it's served over udon noodles. I laughed as I ate this as the sauce was too sweet and it was very watery. The dish could be good if 1) sauce was thicken up, 2) reduce the amount of sugar used and 3) use fatty pork meat. The pork meat in this dish was tough to chew. House salad was decent.Only one server was working, managing all the tables. When we got here, two tables were occupied - one table with party of 2 - finishing up their meal and second table with party of 8 and they were just finishing up ordering their food. The party of 8 ordered a lot (saw 2 sushi boats), thus it took a while for the server to take our order. Not sure about other times, but looks like order is taken per table, food served, then order is taken at the next table, hopefully they find more help. The server kept it cool, apologized for the delay and thanked us for our patience. Yeah, give yourself some extra time and be courteous to the servers. This place is Korean-Japanese restaurant and they do give you some Korean banchans, granted they are all packaged in 4oz containers. Not sure if this is because of covid, but some of their banchans been sitting in the fridge too long. Overall, decent joint, as I stated, definitely come here for their sushi.
