This was our family’s first meal in Korea after 16 years, and it was the perfect introduction to Korean cuisine.
The food was delicious and beautifully presented, the traditional hanok atmosphere was lovely, and the service was warm and attentive throughout our visit.

The soup is really good, and you get generous amounts of broth, which is definitely a plus! They're also very accomodating. I came with a group of six, and they were able to get is in by putting us at smaller tables even though they had several larger groups already.
Serene★★★★★in the last week
The vibes are old timey hanok vibes and super cute/comfy. The food also matches the vibes and is delicious comfort food. This is our second time visiting here as we thoroughly enjoyed this spot!
