It never got super busy though. Service was good. Staff were friendly and checked on us a lot. It's a very try modern looking restaurant. Looks more like a modern cafe inside. Not the vibe I expected but cute! We ordered spicy wontons, stir fried pork belly with green chili, sizzling beef short ribs, and Yangzhou fried rice. We had no idea the dishes all came with rice or else we wouldn't have ordered more. The food came out fast! Portions are definitely shareable. Nothing was spicy. I do think the flavors were a bit lacking. Everything could have been more seasoned but I wasn't mad at it. They do have both an authentic menu and an Americanized menu. Great to see this since not everyone has had authentic Sichuan. I'd come back if I have the chance!

A little disappointing. I ordered Di Guo Bone-in Chicken which was supposed to include mushrooms,…read moreonions, carrots & celery. It had celery and maybe onions but I never found a single mushroom or carrot. It did have green peppers, though. It was labeled "one hot pepper" so I was expecting a spicy hot dish but nope, it wasn't hot AT ALL. When I asked the waitress about that, she said sometimes people say their food is too hot. Then they shouldn't order a dish labeled with hot peppers. But I did and what I got was like American stew with some aromatics added. My son ordered the General Tso's Tofu and he liked it but his rice didn't arrive for another 10 minutes! It also took awhile for us to receive forks. If you can't trust the menu, what good is it?

Our favorites were the beef stir fry noodles and the Dan Dan noodles and we finished with some tasty mochi doughnuts. My only note is that the spicy potato chips are a thin stack of boiled potato slices with cumin seasoning and are not fried as we were surprised when they came out. Still delicious, just not what we expected from "chips" If you're looking for a comforting Asian restaurant here's your spot!

I ordered the chicken katsu with fried rice and it comes with a side of salad for ~$12. The chicken was fried pretty well and wasn't dry, the rice was lacking, more on the white rice side than fried rice. The sauce helped this otherwise bland dish out a ton. The portion size is also kinda small. I'm typically not a big eater and usually have at least half of my meal leftover. This was fine and left me still hungry.

When we went, there was no wait and only a few other diners. Very clean and quiet. We sat right away. The space was a little cold but it's winter so that's sometimes the case. They have QR menus, which I hate. However, the menu is gigantic, so maybe that's why? Still, it's such a pain to use online menus. They brought ice water out right away and it was maybe a cucumber water? So refreshing and in stainless steel cups! I loved that. We ended up ordering spring rolls (order of 6 for about $6). They were crispy, hot, and delicious. I wish they had an order of 1 or 2. For our hot pot soups, Mr got a spicy broth with some kind of beef and I got the basic broth with a spicy chicken. Mr loved his - he's a big fan of numbing spicy. I tried it and it definitely was spicy but in a good way. Mine was perfect - broth was super flavorful and the chili oil from the chicken added the perfect amount of spice. You also can get extra noodles for free if you dine in, but I didnt have any room left! Next time, I might just get the hot pot without added protein. It was lovely just by itself. As I mentioned, the menu is huge. There are so many things I'd like to try. I'd recommend it and would love to come back again!

It was accompanied by white rice. With Plenty of tasty marinated chicken, bok choy, green onions and bean sprouts in a semi spicy broth. Super fulfilling and a nice portion. I shared my bowl with a hungry 6 year old and still had leftovers! Fiance got the braised lamb and stretch noodles, he admitted he had no clue what he was getting or what to expect. Nevertheless he received a nice hearty bowl of lamb and hand stretch noodle in a nice and hot lamb broth. Also accompanied by white rice. He finished majority of his bowl only leaving some broth behind. We both tried each others and both agreed on the diving chicken having a better taste but I think it's because it's spicier. The chicken wings were on the dry side but they were still tasty and completely devoured. Service was standard and immediate. I didn't see a kids menu. Buy we Really enjoyed the food.

If you want to ACTUALLY go to "9 and 3/4," then here it is!…read more 아주머니.... Thank you for bringing me back home when I'd sit on the floor at my mother's third oldest brother's house... mom had eight brothers and sisters and the oldest was as old as her father could be... almost 20-30 years older, actually...she was pretty lonely with no close-in-age sibling around... It was my first visit to Korea and have not been back. But it brings me back. 해물 순두부찌개 (Spicy soft tofu stew with seafood Haemul sundubu-jjigae)...it has the dashi-approach around the fringe of its flavor profile... dimensions! This week was the week I was supposed to get married but my ex Fiance backed out of the whole proposition all together... before you ask. Yes. "Marriage" was actually his idea... me? Well. I just wanted a true fried for life--no binding obligations to the "for life" part... So here I am. Back home. Back to the beginning... I'm not waiting for Vizzini. But please... father I have failed you for 20 years, please I need you to to guide my sword and I cannot do it alone. It's the broth. Before anyone says "high prices for non premium ingredients"... I say hold on... it comes down to: labor and love. Korean cooking is not just ingredients alone. It is the salt. It is the hand kneading, flavor, and marrying of such (pun). There is more than a spirit in the cooking. More than just the soul. But emotion. Maybe Koreans feel this in our blood. Google the word "Han" and maybe you'll get just a drop of taste on the tongue to taste and see. This is a one woman show. Plus her kitchen staff or just one helper in the whole restaurant. Please come here ready to put patience to action and feel full and whole from doing so. Your good deed of the day. I would come here for comfort. Because I missed something I could not explain... or define... or I'd come here in time of overt failure. Auntie said hi to me. She asked if - I was Korean - saying I must be. We never were truly accepted. Even just visiting the first time in 22 years in Korea. If you don't see family for 22 years... I suppose ... you couldn't easily accept me either? Maybe she saw the Satori. Maybe she saw some Cheju. Maybe she saw some of Gramma. You know most people would turn away but you count on the hope that there will be that -one- who will read it, and stay. So yes, you.. dear one. I am so glad you heard about it... P.s. The Yuk-Gae Jiang has real bone broth. Like Cow knuckle, dude. It solidifies into one pure block of collagen when you fridge the takeout into the next day. ::mic drop::

The Korean food is measured by "Ban-chan," the side dishes that come with the main menus. To prepare such side dishes is not easy. But, to prepare with original tastes only found in side streets of Korea, it takes years of cooking skills and holistic use of fresh varieties of vegetables with traditional touch of flavors. So, to find the restaurant Silla, tucked in the alley of shopping center near Marc's by Henderson and Reed road, does brings nostalgia as you walk toward the entrance. The service is important part of our culture. The lady who serves is so kind with a genuine smile. Even when she is serving so many customers, she manages to bring smile to those who she serves. Her kindness rubs off onto her customers - at first I was not used to her being so kind - but she has a way for opening up her sincerity. My wife and I am now a regular customer at Silla. Sometimes my food may come out late, but I come to enjoy the energy and vibe by many young college students, and savor the food as it is prepared the way it should be. As a Korean American, I am so thankful to have Silla in the heart of Columbus.
