Korean Superette

At first, the menu felt a bit overpriced, but after trying the food, I understood the pricing. The bossam was very tender, and the banchan paired with it really well (I especially liked the mushroom and seaweed). The jang pasta was also excellent and felt quite new and unique to me. One downside was that both my partner and I had no internet signal inside the restaurant (we use different carriers), which was a bit inconvenient. Not a cheap place, but definitely worth a visit.

Ordered to my office via doordash. It was only warm when I got it, but not restaurant fault. Food was outstanding, price was not bad for the portion and Korean to boot. The beef stew was my favorite though. Definitely would order this again. Needless to say I was stuffed afterwards. If your not a big eater, maybe could split this with someone.

Delicious dinner on the wood and leaf covered patio! We ordered the rice cakes and silken tofu, and it all tasted fresh and homemade. The portions were generous and enough for leftovers. The service was also very kind! We went on a Tuesday night, and there were plenty of tables available without reservation, but given what a positive experience we had, we’d love to see the place be more full. Now one of my new favorite spots on Solano Ave✨

You're pretty much guaranteed that the food is going to be decent if the restaurant is on Solano Ave. I liked the concept of the items in the store also doubling as decorations to look at while you are dining. The people were also nice and welcoming.

I’ve eaten here several times now, and I love the ambience and service every time. The food is amazing as well, although I will say some dishes are better than the other. My favorite is the jang pasta, it is absolutely delicious. The side dishes are also very tasty.

Clean, cozy, and charming eatery and mini-market tucked away on Solano Ave. The restaurant is back behind the kitchen and includes a cute patio (with heaters!) that features a gorgeous magnolia tree. The steaming spicy Korean soups were the perfect meals to enjoy during a chilly January evening. I had the doenjangjjigae (spicy soy bean beef stew) and the spicy fried tofu — both came out steaming and maintained their flavor even as things cooled off. Everything was high quality. The service was quick and attentive and we had no problem splitting the check across two cards. They were very friendly without being over attentive, giving us the space we needed for a good dinner catch up between friends. This place is a longtime favorite of my Berkeley friend and I’m so glad I finally got a chance to try it with her. I’ll be back again soon — and might grab some Korean groceries (like kimchi and marinated bulgogi) on my way out!

The food was delicious. The service was very good. Just that they seemed a bit short-staffed given how busy they were. If you like spicy food, then I am pretty sure everything on the menu is good. They are very thoughtful about dietary restrictions as well (e.g., kimchi is vegan).
