What People Say

Reviewers on TripAdvisor and OpenTable love the fresh ingredients, flavorful marinades, and attentive staff. The galbi and bulgogi consistently get high marks, and many say the experience is both authentic and welcoming. Diners also rave about the clean, modern interior and the way staff guide first-timers through the menu.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that it can get a bit busy during peak hours, which might lead to a short wait—so consider making a reservation if you're on a tight concert schedule. Others note that the grill smoke can linger a bit on your clothes, so plan ahead if you're heading to a tightly packed venue afterward.
