I open the door and immediately realize, this ain't going to be cheap. The interior looks upscale, and not a hole in the wall like I had incorrectly thought all along. I asked how long a General Tsos order would take to make. The receptionist told me 10 minutes or less. So I place the order and pay $20 after tax. The food was sweet with a noticeable kick of red pepper. I did notice the pan-Asian menu... and maybe this is a good option for a nice dinner for a special occasion, but I don't think I'll be able to afford this place as my go to Chinese take out joint.

They are most known for their beef bone broth soup but have expanded their menu to include other favorites of mine! If you are looking for some spice, I recommend getting the yukaejang!

I ordered the beef broth with the mixed brisket, tripe and shank. the beef broth was so rich and delicious. especially on a cold winter day, this broth hits just where you need it to. the soup comes with a good amount of noodles and meat so you're filled by the time you're done. you really don't need much to season the soup either. it's light, but a bit of salt and pepper enhance the flavor enough. this place is going to be my new go to for korean soup!

Food came out fairly quickly and the kimbap tasted really good! I know I didn't do a great job taking a photo, but as you can kind of see, Sirok kimbap came with lots of ingredients inside. And I can say this as I have made kimbap many times myself, it's really an effort when you have multiple ingredients, so I thought it was worth it, overall, quick and easy yet delicious Korean street food option!

Also, I ended up ordering something that I didn't know what it was because there were no pictures. When I got the order, I told them I didn't want it and was hoping to switch it for something else. They would not sub it for me and I had to buy a new entrée that was $18. I would really also appreciate if they would not give me so much cheese and then charge me three dollars extra for it. There was way too much cheese in this food and I love cheese. The music is too loud and it's just uncomfortable both seating inside and outside.

First had this dish over a decade ago and the price keeps going up--I know that's just inflation for you. The reason I dropped my rating was actually because of the "Angry Chicken" I kept seeing so many photos of it on Yelp which made me order it. The chicken did not have any attractive, char flavor to it... a bit mushy and it really relies on the spice. I don't think it should cost $20 and yes very overhyped. Other than the chicken, I'd def come back when I'm craving nostalgic soondubu!
