I visited this restaurant today located at 5161 Beach Blvd Unit 5B, Jacksonville, FL 32207, and…read moreordered the beef tripe soup. The side dishes were very flavorful, and I also purchased two drinks that were absolutely delicious. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and provided good customer service throughout my visit. The only thing is that they told me that they do not clean tripe in Korea which was hard to believe. I do want to share a concern regarding the preparation of the tripe soup. After beginning the meal, I noticed that the tripe did not appear to have been cleaned. At first, I wondered if this was simply the restaurant's style of preparation, but after researching further, I learned that improperly cleaned tripe can be both unpleasant and potentially unsafe to consume because tripe comes from the stomach lining of the animal. Uncleaned tripe may still contain food residue, digestive material, parasites, worms, bacteria, and strong bile or waste odors. This can potentially lead to issues such as foul smell, unpleasant taste, food poisoning, bacterial contamination including E. coli or Salmonella, and symptoms such as stomach cramps, vomiting, or diarrhea. Proper cleaning is generally considered an essential part of preparing tripe, especially in professional restaurants where customers would quickly notice if the cleaning process was incomplete. Overall, I appreciated the kindness of the staff, the quality of the drinks, and the excellent side dishes. I am only sharing my personal experience and concern specifically regarding the preparation of the tripe soup.

After a morning at the range I was in the mood for Korean food. I saw a spot down the street from…read moreOn Target sports and decided to drop in without even looking at reviews. It was good food. I ordered the beef hotpot and my friend ordered the steamed dumplings. My meal was good. They brought out the side veggies which consisted of radish, ginger, kimchi, broccoli and one other item(brain fart here). They were all good and pickled. The kimchi was spiced but I could eat it with the rice. The beef was really good and seasoned just right with that sweet tangy flavor. I will say the steamed dumplings weren't my favorite as it had no taste and I wasn't a fan of the sauce. My friend wasn't into them either but it's based on individual taste so you may think otherwise. We were seated and served pretty quickly. The restaurant seemed fairly clean and the food was reasonably priced. To me the beef pot was really for 2 people if you don't mind sharing one pot of rice.

In having to wait a few minutes, I did manage to find an available parking spot. For dinner I decided to have a nice and warm bowl of beef ramen. That beef ramen was great on this cool and cloudy day. I love the ambiance within this restaurant, because the service was very good and they were so welcoming today. I'm definitely returning here to try out their Banchan and Kimchi pancake. I saw that today, and it really good.

But also I'm confused about the prices because we ate lunch on Sunday, but we were charged the dinner prices. Anyways, I really want to come back for the kbbq. It just seems so much more worth, as it's only a little more expensive that a normal a la carte dish, and it's unlimited. Plus, their meat quality looks pretty good!

They offer both KBBQ and a regular menu, and since we weren't that hungry, we decided to order off the regular menu. I got the dolsot bibimbap, which came out hot and sizzling, and my friend ordered the beef bulgogi bento box. The portions were big and definitely filling. One thing to know is that some dishes have both lunch and dinner portions--if you don't specify, they'll automatically give you the dinner portion. Service was friendly and the food hit the spot. I'd definitely come back the next time I'm craving Korean food!

Like... next-level good. The dumplings were straight-up addicting and disappeared way too fast. We also ordered the bulgogi fries and they absolutely hit the spot -- savory, filling, and great for sharing. The noodles were awesome and comforting, and even the lemonade stood out (which says a lot because I don't usually notice drinks like that). Overall, everything we tried was solid and well-executed. Great flavors, good portions, and a menu that makes you want to come back and try more. 9/10 -- highly recommend if you're in Jacksonville and craving Korean fried chicken.

Wow, what happened to this place? One positive note -- our server Teesh was very kind, helpful, and…read moreattentive. As for the food, we ordered the chicken fried rice and it was very bland with no seasoning or flavor. The chicken was also dry and flavorless. I ordered the twice-fried chicken with 3 drumsticks and 5 wings, and everything tasted overcooked. This spot is definitely not how I remembered it from two years ago. Not sure if it's under new ownership or management, but something has changed. Sadly, not really tempted to come back.

I placed an order to go. I never been and was unfamiliar with the flavors and the lady was so sweet and let me try a flavor. I stayed to just getting the wings for now but there were lots of other food items I plan to go back and try. I did have to wait a while for the wings because they make them fresh so I wasn't complaining. By the time I got home, put groceries away, the wings still had a good crunch and flavorful. The galbi sauce is sweet, kinda reminds me of sweet and chili without the chili. The restaurant looked like they had a crowd before I walked in but the host was keeping it clean while I was looking for through the menu. Definitely going back to eat in and try some new stuff.

Listen, the decor in here is incredible. It's cute, it's curated, it's everything a mood board is…read moresupposed to be. The staff? Beautiful people. Attentive. Great energy. But you can't eat the wallpaper. I'm looking at this chicken and I'm confused. I thought we were doing something sophisticated, but they brought out those boneless nuggets you find in the back of the freezer at 2:00 AM. Then they hit it with a drizzle of ketchup like it's a consolation prize. This isn't Korean Fried Chicken; it's a school lunch with a passport. It's dishonest. Then you got the pork belly. I don't know if this pig was an athlete or if it's just been sitting back there since the grand opening, but it's got the texture of a pink eraser. I'm chewing and chewing, just waiting for a flavor that never shows up. My jaw is doing a full-body workout. I didn't come here for a survival mission, I came here for a snack. And please, watch yourself when you pull up. There is a pothole in the lot that looks like a portal to another dimension. An asteroid literally made a home in front of the building. If you hit that thing, your car is staying there forever. The service is elite and the chairs are nice, but the kitchen is confused. It's style over substance. Take a picture for the 'gram, say hi to the nice server, and then go get a burger somewhere else. Don't do this to your suspension or your stomach.
