Lovely little Korean restaurant serving a simple homey menu. They offer typical dishes and soups as well as BBQ and alcohol. They also have some good combos. Their prices are a bit higher than your average around the area but their flavours are on point. They're also generous with the side dishes, each person got their own serving. Service was good. There were two single stall washrooms. They did however mention that they're closed at 9pm when Google says 10pm so make sure you call in advance.

Pork bone soup is straight up fire!! Best in town. Better than any other Korean restaurant around this area or even in GTA. I only had this taste in Winnipeg unfortunately they closed for good. Definitely coming back for the soup again the only Korean food restaurant on my list now.

Generous portions and great value. We got the combo for 2 (can select 2 from 10 options) and pork bone soup on the side. - Pork bone soup was lighter than I’m used to (threw the kimchi side dish in and it was *chef’s kiss*) but the pork was incredibly tender and fresh. - chicken katsu had a good right amount of crunch; good batter to meat ratio. - haven’t tried the bibimbap yet (overestimated our hunger) but it looked great. Likes that the purple rice didn’t taste too grainy. Will be trying again!

Lovely restaurant that we stumbled upon a few weeks ago. We've been here twice so far and each time had a great experience. Special shoutout to the pork bone soup which my husband could not stop raving about. The waitress was so kind to our family, going above and beyond the definition of great customer service. Will definitely become a regular going forward.
