Don't eat here too much but my family likes it. It's certainly authentic Korean food. When I go in most of the customers are Korean. With dine in you get some kimchi items. It's not a cheap place, but if you like Korean food something will tickle your fancy.
If you have a better option, don’t come. This place is really understaffed. I only saw one waitress, so very long time for staff to take orders and serve food. My noodle was undercooked and probably tasted worse than the instant ones from supermarket. Ban Chan was too simple. I also don’t like this place is using single-use chopsticks. Most Korean restaurants I’ve been to used metal chopsticks.
Came into the restaurant a little late around 9:10pm but a worker instructed us to go ahead and come in. The lady was busy and I stood by the door for a couple minutes before just sitting myself. She then came to the table gave us only 1 menu for 2 people and said “order. We close at 10” and walked away. We waited 15 minutes and no one took our order so we decided to walk up to the kitchen to ask but she just ignored us and kept doing her own thing. If they didn’t want to serve us because it was too late then they should’ve just said so. No reason for such rude and poor service.
The chicken is absolutely delicious but environment is very strange, doesn't feel like a restaurant and nothing matches; they gave popcorn as an appetizer instead of the usual dishes you'd expect at a Korean restaurant and one of the owners was yelling at staff in front of us (yikes, so they surely do this often when no customers are around).
I ordered the Ox Bone soup and this was the worst excuse for a soup I've ever had. It literally tasted like hot water with chives floating in it, absolutely zero flavor of any king. Not worth the $14 they charged for it. I didn't want to waste my money completely so I took it home and made a real soup out of it! Sad but true...
Let me tell you, this restaurant is even better than any one in Korea. But keepers can’t understand English well, that’s totally fine, they have picture menu. Friendly price and budget, highly recommend to you bro.
This is a nice little Mom & Pop Korean restaurant. The food was ok, a little pricy for what you get. I got Kimchi jige, Korean pork stew and it hit the spot for me when I'm feeling under the weather. Got the bulgolgi in clay pot, got 4 pieces of meat literally, haha. They do have a large menu with lots of different items to try. Just don't expect the welcome wagon if you are not Korean, not a big deal for me cuz I just wanna eat but it can kinda ruin your eating experience.
Mom and Pop.Beyond loved the Soondooboo Jigae with all the sides / Banchan. One of the best Jigaes I’ve had in Austin in years!!!
Great Korean comfort food. They have a few vegetarian options on the menu which is a plus - my favorite is the tofu soup and kimchi pancake. Great place for a low-key dinner.
This restaurant has great service, amazing food, is clean and welcoming, and was very affordable for our group of six last night! Tabletop grills, big screen TVs, it has everything! I have never had such tender and delicious beef bulgogi, and the kimchi pancake was perfectly prepared and big enough to share with all in the group. Yum!We are looking forward to dining there again very soon.
