Service was great and fast. For just one lady serving everyone in the restaurant I think it was very speedy. Kimbap was delicious. My husband's bulgogi was tender, flavorful and not overly salty. My kimchi jigae was pretty good but a little too salty for me. Would definitely come back to try other dishes when we are in the area again.

Got to be honest, this is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. Great food, good service, nice atmosphere; I simply love this place. Been coming there for years and the service and the food has never dipped in quality. Staff has been great, very friendly, and delivers and excellent customer experience. And the food is you GREAT! I know I said that, but I thought it was worth mentioning again! :D

With the unfortunate passing of Mona (RIP) I was forced to find another Korean food place.We are super picky about our Korean food luckily Sorabol passed our finicky taste buds.My husband is a Galbi fan and he was slightly underwhelming when asked if he liked it. "It was fine". He ate it all. He didn't care for the choices of banchan but I believe they change them often. My son and I looved the yellow pickled radish. They didn't serve the sweet pickled radish that I like, mu saengchae. But they may have it.We ordered beef bulgogi. Delicious and tender. I think the problem my husband I both have is the lack of sauce on the meat. We could taste the flavor but we like a little sauciness.The kimbap was delicious. Served with a different dipping sauce than what we are used to. This was served with spicy paste. But makes no difference it was delicious and they were a pretty nice size.My favorite was the jjamppong, spicy seafood soup with the udon noodles. It was spicy and delicious and full of vegetables and seafood. Sooo good ?We ordered for take out and everything was packaged nicely, no spillage. Will definitely order again.The photos are leftovers from the next day. But shows the lack of sauce.

I like this Korean restaurant. Very spacious with friendly staff. Food is always good. I left one star off because I’m a big banchan fan and they currently only offer two. The classic cabbage kimchi + pickled radish.

This was our first time eating here. My wife had the beef bulgogi and I had the pork. We also had the Mondu dumplings and the banchan kimchi dishes. All of it was pretty good. To me, the bulgogi needed some spice, but otherwise it was good. The Mondu and kimchi were great as well. My only complaint is the service was a little slow as I think our waitress was by herself. All in all, this was a good meal. Had it been a little more spicy and it would’ve been a great meal. Recommend you try it. We’d consider coming back.

I ate here for lunch; it was my first time having traditional Korean cuisine and it was amazing! Great service and amazing food 10/10 will be going back with my family.

Great service as well as great food! If you are a fan of Korean food, I strongly suggest this restaurant. We love the fried dumplings, (mondoo), pan jun, bulgogi and Kim chi jigae. All of the side veggies are fresh and delicious. Never a disappointment!

My Wife and I tried this place for the first time and it was delicious. I had the stir fried octopus and my wife had the beef Bulgogi. Both were delicious but the Beef was OMG!!!!!! Got to go back! You must try this place!!!

Food is always good when I come by, and the older woman working around the tables is friendly

My mom and I had lunch here today and it was very, very good. I love bulgogi and so does she. I had the chicken bulgogi and she had the beef. The atmosphere was quiet and nothing special, but I was there for the food and it was awesome. I am sure we will be back again.
