Went here for the walnut cakes and Korean pancakes and the pancakes were awesome. The walnut cakes were good but nowhere near as good as the pancakes!!!

My go to place for walnut cake. whenever I'm in the area. It's a must go to.Freshly made walnut cakes with smooth potato filling.And you get to watch their manufacturing process.This time I tried their Madeleine. It came in a pack of 3, made with almond flour. Didn't take a pic. They are dense and delicious.

The walnut cakes really are so tasty, but we also loved the pancakes when we stopped here. This place is awesome. I love watching their walnut cake machine through the window too. It’s also quite affordable. This place is a Korea-town classic. Highly recommend! Solid vegetarian options too (I think everything is vegetarian if not vegan).

I didn't have a chance to take a picture as we devoured all the things we ate within minutes. We had the brown sugar pancake and it was piping fresh and hot -- totally worth eating on the spot, though after pan frying to reheat at home was not bad (but not comparable to eating on the spot) The person who placed my order recommended reheating over a pan with butter and bananas :).The walnut cakes have not wavered in quality over the years and were delicious.The service was friendly and quick! The line moves fairly quickly.Do not resist the visit. Just go. :)

Fun, tasty little bites that aren't overly sweet. The brown sugar pancakes hot off the pan is a favorite. Crisp exterior with a sweet filling with bits of walnuts inside.

Family-run business selling the BEST Korean treats. I stop by whenever I'm in the area. Absolutely love their walnut cakes. You can actually see them made fresh in the shop window daily. The potato and walnut flavour is a must try, and I prefer it to the red bean.If you're craving something sweeter, highly recommend the brown sugar pancake. Careful when you're eating it while it's hot and fresh, the insides are molten!

I’ve been wanted to try their walnuts cakes and finally I did. (Mini Walnut cakes $3.25/ 6pcs) It was way more tasty than I expected! Sweet beans or potato paste inside the cake. I definitely stop by this shop more often and wanna try quite fresh ones. Welcoming and kindly staff on point.

Instagram @chopstixinthesix Follow Us!!We got 6 pieces of Walnut Cakes (Red Bean), and Korean Pancake in Brown Sugar flavour. The Walnut Cakes are similar to the Japanese Taiyaki, but in ball shapes that resembles a Walnut, it came packed with Red Bean filling! Korean Pancake was chewy, it had Brown Sugar filling that wasn’t overly sweet. Both of these traditional Korean Snacks were perfect!

Love coming here and getting the little walnut cakes. Very delicious, not too sweet and definitely great. Nice customer service as well. I usually order 20 pieces (split between red bean and potato) and the past 2 times they gave me some extra. Definitely going to try their other items the next time I go!

Ive never tried anything like the walnut cake before but it's definitely now one of my new favorite snacks. Ever since I've tried it.The different flavor make it even better! Personally I love the red bean ones. The girl at the front is always so kind and friendly. I came a few years ago a few minutes before closing and provided me with kind service. I visited a month ago and the same girl had a chat with me. Came back today to get some walnut cakes and she recognized me and gave me one extra walnut cake! I also got the pancake to try. Which had delicious brown sugar filling 20/10 ??!
