This is called Bibimbap. I enjoy Bibimbap because they are delicious and healthy at the same time. Look at all those ingredients. Various vegetables and tasty meat mixed with rice and Korean red sauce which is sweet and a little spicy.The servers at this restaurant are kind. "Komtang means Korean beef bone soup. So this restaurant specializes in Komtangs. However, bibimbap at this place is also delicious.

It was good, but not the best and not the cheapest. Hard to find the beef in the hotpot bibimbap. Not many side dishes, friendly waitress.

Service here is terrible. The female owner has a poor attitude and is easily annoyed at having to do any additional work. They have a policy where you have to pay cash if your order is under $20 (which is ridiculous in itself), however the female owner had the audacity to still ask if I could pay with cash even though my order was $25. I obviously said no and she relented (doing nothing to hide the annoyance on her face).The place had lots of flies buzzing around and generally was not very clean or sanitary. Food was plain and very overpriced compared to the quality. There was only one other couple when I came in during lunch hour, seems to me like the business is struggling for obvious reasons. Probably why the owners are being cheap and trying to get out of paying fair taxes.You can get away with poor service or bad food but not both. That’s just my two cents.

Authentic foods, fresh ingredients, quick service. Small, clean, casual dinning. Serves selection of Korean beers.

It was amazing soup,soul food!! Komtang is healthy and slow cooking food. I deeply impressed those food and service from here. Thank U so much

I think it's a Korean comfort food place but food isn't good. Seafood pancake only has squid inside and is very oily. Beef stew has no soup and unseasoned. very disappointed.

This restaurant satisfied me in 5 minutes.

Authentic Korean dishes, except the fried pork

My review is based on my first and only visit. Not going to eat here again as long as the same people prepare and serve my food. Overall not a very good experience.Here are the reasons:1. It appears this place is run by a husband and wife but can’t confirm. Service is mediocre. The lady doesn’t speak English and can’t be bothered most of the time. She was not happy that she had to give me a four person table all to myself because there was not a smaller table. Never heard a thank you from her.2. There’s NO lunch menu. Therefore all items are dinner prices thus quite expensive. Maybe customers couldn’t be bothered coming because of this. During the time that I was eating I only saw one couple coming in. The place was quite empty - not a good sign.3. Food is not great. I ordered cold soup noodles. The noodles were good but the soup was bland - basically no flavor. The 3 banchan dishes were below average. This is the first time I have seen green onions served as banchan. They were extremely tough and chewy. Also the mustard sauce was watery and tasted diluted.4. The restaurant gives a messy feel. The dirty dish cart stood next to my table all throughout the time that I was eating. There were flies in the dining area. Owners did not bother to take action to get rid of the annoying insects.5. They don’t take credit cards if your bill is less than $20.
