This restaurant is a hidden gem. When I first walked in, I thought I was in a grocery store, not a restaurant. There were drinks, ice cream, and other products that you would find in a supermarket. The food was limited because the fan was broken, but I could order Spicy Beef Soup and Jjamppong. It was delicious enough that I almost finished it. I've seen some bad reviews about the server, but she was attentive and friendly, including refilling my side dishes and water promptly when needed. I would definitely recommend here to my friends.

The food here is amazing. It has such good flavor and quality. This is my 2nd time coming and I have not been disappointed. Our server Sophia was very hospitable and attentive. We had a great time here. The saohan I think was the name but it was calamari and pork, it was amazing. The eel melts in your mouth it was perfect. The Korean BBQ with short ribs and pork belly was amazing!

I had never been to this restaurant before today. We don't find ourselves driving down this road often, and since it's not visible from the main road, I really didn't even know it was here till my friends mentioned it. I met up with some of my friends here for a yummy lunch. They've both been here many years ago, but a first for me! We were seated right away when we walked in. The atmosphere was welcoming with high ceilings, warm lighting, and plenty of booth seating. They serve Coke products here, which is always a big plus for me😅, so I ordered a Diet Coke while I waited for my friends to arrive. I looked at the menu for a long time before finally settling on Yuk Gae Jang, I'm admittedly not very familiar with Korean cuisine so I wasn't quite sure what I was ordering but had heard the food was the best Korean in the area so I didn't worry too much as it would be good. And it was very good! The food was served in a blazing hot stone bowl, and the food was piping hot as well! It was difficult to eat at first, but as it cooled down, it got better and better! Tried as I might, I could not finish all the food in front of me. The meal was a great value, and I got to take home some excellent leftovers to share with my husband. I can't wait to return and try something else (if I don't just order the same thing again😅).

Ordered the kalbi and kimbap for take out. It was fantastic. Super fresh. The meat was soft and tender. Overall my experience was fantastic. Will have to try dine in soon! The staff was polite and friendly. The restaurant was very clean. I loved that they had snacks up front for purchase too! Would def recommend.

This is an awesome Korean restaurant. The food is outstanding and the service is great. They have enough room to accommodate large groups and the menu has some great choices that I can't find anywhere else in the area. The staff also takes the time to explain the dishes and how they are traditionally eaten. Really great dining experience!

I understand that this is a family owned business and I just happened to have high expectations since I have experienced eating Korean BBQ in Korea several times. But the quantity of food was less for what we paid for. It is very pricey compared to other Korean restaurants in Cincinnati. The plate that's on my table has grease on it like it was not washed properly. I had to ask the server for a new plate. Furthermore, the food that they served is unpalatable. The meat is bad and not even thawed. The rice doesn't look and taste fresh as if it was cooked days ago. It costs $100 for 2 persons. I am really disappointed.

Food was amazing, prices were high, but large portions, Their sign is hard to find in the dark. Went to celebrate a birthday, his choice to go there. He has been there several times, His dad a couple times and it was my first time there. Birthday boy got the Pork Bulgogi, His father got the Beef Bulgogi, and I got the Kkanpunggi. They brought out 6 different sides for us to share with our own bowl of rice before our entrees. All three of our entrees were delicious. Large portions and the 3 of us had to get small boxes to go. We Definitely will definitely be going back again.
