This restaurant serves Korean food with a Japanese twist. I've been keeping an eye on this place for a long time, & it makes me happy to see that it's still so well-loved. Making traditional homemade kimchi is no easy task, so I truly appreciate all your hard work. I love that the food tastes exactly as wonderful as it did back then!
Love you guys

J'ai pris le curry Katsu au poulet. C'était vraiment bon! Légèrement pané, très croustillant, pas du tout gras & j'ai aimé la fine texture de la panko.

Les portions sont généreuses. Tu peux amener la ligne offensive des Alouettes sans problème!

Le service est excellent & même dans un très bon français!

Ce sera un retour sans aucun doute !

Reviews don't lie! Definitely one of the best Korean spots around. I really enjoyed the dolsot. It's one of those restaurants where, just from the outside, you already know it's gonna be good.
