Since my last review, my husband and I have returned several times. We are in love with their marinated galbi. The ladies there know my family now and always love on my little boy (I went when I was pregnant). I also love their dogani muchim. The portion is HUGE, but it is so delicious and flavorful. Highly recommend!

Not sure why this place isn't more highly rated, but I accidentally discovered this place when looking for a Korean restaurant that has a great banchan lineup. Went in for BBQ - will try their regular menu next time - and was not disappointed. The banchan were really great, and refills came quickly. Service was excellent, the server made sure each meat dish was cooked to perfection and did not push me to finish the meat quickly so she can cook the next one - most other Korean BBQ places will put them on a dish and let them get cold before I can finish it, which sucks. The only thing I would say about this very clean restaurant is that it's a little small so if there are a lot of people you may need to wait. Highly recommend anyone in the area to try this place out.

best Korean restaurant simply authentic!, good quality dishes and tasty side dishes, even the rice they serve tastes better than most of the restaurant

So I just ordered from here through Grub Hub. Food came perfectly packed and all was piping hot. I ordered the ox bone soup and the marinated galbi. It came with 3 decent sized sides that were different and not a variation of the same thing. Unlike the popular Korean bbq place that I don't name, I actually got a hefty serving that could have easily fed 2 people and they both be full. My soup was humongous. I definitely got my money's worth. Oh I forgot to mention the most important thing.... Everything was fresh AND delicious. I'm really impressed. This has been marked as a favorite. I will be ordering from here again and hope to visit the actual restaurant when covid numbers go down. Update: The ox bone soup was disgusting. No flavor and no ox bone. Just a sliver of meat. Maybe a forkful. I tried to add salt & seasonings. Bleh. The other soups maybe great but this is not. Unsure what it came up as a popular order.

I came here recently with a friend for lunch and was blown away. My friend and I ordered the Kalbi box and soondooboo on the lunch special. We were given generous portions along with flavorful banchan. I'll be returning here again to try their dulsootbap!

TIP: Must try traditional Korean BBQ. Ask them to grill the bone from the Galbi (yes, I'm recommending you order Galbi), in the back for you to enjoy at your table. Order rice separately. Don't miss out on this hidden gem! The environment is welcoming, the service is great and the food is amazing! ORDER: * Galbi * Marinated tender beef with powerful yet delicious mouthwatering flavor that pairs great with white rice and sides. * Spicy Pork Belly * Medium spice tender pork belly strips. The level of spice is not excruciation to the point you need a drink water to cool down. It is a perfect level of spice that allows you to enjoy the meat without breaking a sweat. * Japchae * Clear glass noodles accompanied with mixed vegetables and a delicate hint of sweet flavor - it's not sweet like dessert. Trust me, this is something you'll want to grub on with your meat and rice. Japchae is my all time favorite and a must have when eating Korean food. SIDES: All the sides come with the meals for the table to share. Think of it as appetizers yet they go great with your meal. If you finish the sides before your meal comes out, kindly ask for more. * Kim Chee * Radish * Seaweed * Spicy Cucumber * Bean Sprouts * Garlic * Jalapeño * Lettuce * Hot Sauce * SERVICE: We were immediately greeted as we entered the restaurant. The lady asked if we'd be ordering Korean BBQ and sat us at a table with a grilled stove top. She asked us if we'd like hot tea or water and immediately brought us our pick. Our order was taken with ease and food was brought out and cooked to perfection. There are service buttons in the table if you find the need to get the waitress' attention. LOCATION/FACILITY: This is located off Route 40/Baltimore National Pike in a shopping center like area full of restaurants. You can find this gem on the second floor in the middle corner of the entire building. PARKING: Free parking lot SEATING: Ample amount of seating COVID-19: [October 2020] Due to the current pandemic; some of the utensils and cups were disposable. They take your temperature and distance the seating of customers. Out of all the Korean restaurants in Ellicott City, let alone Howard County, this is my favorite. It is traditional and the restaurant has a warm homy feeling to me.
