    The restaurant is spaciuos with a lot of seating, and had 2 or 3 servers working around the time we arrived (3pm). Although there were 3 servers, they all left the old dirty dishes from previous customers sitting out on the table for hours.. [Food: 4 of 5]] so dduk - so dduk? - It came out first, and was super good. The rice cakes were crispy; the sausages were a bit over cooked for my liking but the whole dish tasted great with their sweet chili sauce. Fish Cake Soup- This soup was so hearty, and super hot. It paired amazingly well with our cold noodle soup. A bite of hot soup, with a bite of cold noodles. It was like the best of both worlds. We couldn't finish this soup because there was just so much of it; it is the perfect soup to share as a table. Cold Noodle Soup/ Mul Naengmyeon : This dish is seasonal, and my friend and I were afraid they wouldn't have it in season anymore since it's getting colder now and we're into the Fall season. Luckily, they did have it so of course we had to order it. The cold broth was refreshing, and tasted great with a dash of mustard and vinegar. Korean Fried Chicken- you have to order this first (recommended) since it takes over 30 mins to cook for it to get crispy. we ordered half soy garlic and half spicy. The chicken was crispy but could use more flavor/sauce. The sauce barely coated the chicken, so it kind of just tasted like eating at popeyes. The spicy wings were not spicy, it had a kick at first but then went away immediately. The soy garlic was good, but I wish it had more sauce on them. Water: I assume their water is just form the tap, but I would recommend not drinking it. It honestly tasted so bad, we contemplated buying a bottle of water from them. But ended up just choosing sodas. All in all, it was pretty good.

    My friends and I went here before one of the yelp events that was going on in the area. We heard that their chicken was good so we were excited to try it. The service was just okay. There were a couple times where we had to remind them to provide our drinks that we ordered and also the utensils that we needed. The restaurant was very big but empty. There were a lot of seats but also they did not clean up the dishes from a table that sat before us until we were almost done with our meals. Since they didn't, and had the door wide open, there was a fly that kept going back and forth around our table. Onto the food! Here's a little breakdown of what we got: Korean Fried Chicken (2/5) - We ordered this first because we knew it would take 30 mins to make. We had medium wings with half soy garlic and spicy. The chicken was a little too oily and barely had any sauce. The spicy was just spice but no flavor but the soy garlic was good. So Dduk - So Dduk (4/5) - This was super yummy. The dduk was so crisp and paired well with the sausage. The sweet chili sauce was also a great combination. Fish Cake Soup (5/5) - I can't tell if this was the star of the show or the mul naengmyeon but this was honestly so delicious. It felt like a hug in a bowl. There was a plentiful and a variety of fish cakes. Each with so different and flavorful. Mul Naengmyeon (5/5) - We were so scared that they weren't going to serve this because it wasn't summer anymore but they had it. it was slushy, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. The pears added a really good texture to the soup. I think they need to work on service and cleanliness but overall, the food was good!

    I'm going to call this the review of unfortunate timing. The menu prices were blanked out and the server didn't know the new prices. It was after lunch and the place was dirty. Floors unswept, tables not bussed, and the tabletop was sticky. Lunch special was fast but just ok. Guess it was a bad day,,, a really bad day.

    Really yummy Korean food!! Generous with the banchans when requested. They also sell kimchi which I like to buy because they make it in-house and I'm not Korean lol! Lunch specials and bowls are great!

    Japche Plate

    My party of three came today for a quick lunch. We ordered the following: Seafood Pancake, Japchae, Spicy Pork, and LA Galbi. Here's the consensus rating from the group. Seafood Pancake: my wife and my friend thought they were really good. The sauce that came with it complemented the dish really well. I thought the pancake could be slightly crunchier. Almost 5/5. Japchae: simply amazing. The noodle wasn't overly oily, the noodles weren't too sticky, and the veggies weren't under-seasoned. Japchae as a dish in general has a low ceiling but this dish hit all the high marks. 5/5. Spicy pork and LA Galbi were both 4/5. One thought the Galbi were a bit heavy on the sweet flavor. Another thought the spicy pork did not bring enough heat. I thought the meats were juicy and tender. The girls thought spicy pork did have a few blackened pieces. But, the meat dishes were good nonetheless. Tally that up, the experience was good. It was $81-ish, pre-tax, for four good dishes. The service was good. The waiters were attentive. The food was served within 15 minutes of ordering. 4.5/5 for the whole experience. There were too many upsides to not bump it up to 5* for the review :)

    Pork Cutlet Kimbap
    Tommy Y.

    Came here with a friend one night for dinner for some Korean food, was impressed with the variety of dishes they offer! There wasn't anyone dining in at the time, so I assume they do a lot of carry out orders. Service was friendly though, and provided us with refills on our banchan side dishes when we asked. I decided to go with the Pork Cutlet Kimbap as I've been craving a good Korean sushi roll, and we don't have many places to get them in my area. It was nicely sized, and packed with a good amount of veggies and meat. The taste on its own didn't particularly wow me, but it was a good portion to fill me up, and with the sauce it's pretty tasty! Definitely want to come back and try some of the other Korean dishes they offer.

    This place has been open for sometime but didn't visit it earlier. Good and quick service. Ordered Bulgogi , spicy chicken , Sea food pancakes, all very every yummy. Portion size was very generous as well. Their sides come in very generous as well. Service was good and fast . Their recommendation was also spot on. Good place for a Friday or weekend diner.

    Korean Fried Chicken Wings

    Best chicken of all korean chicken places!!! only downside is limited flavors, but if you just like the classic soy garlic, try it!

    Korean Fried Chicken Combo

    At 6, this place starts to get packed. But there's so much variety of Korean food and they even have ramen. The chicken and seafood pancake took some time but the bibimbap and soup came out right away. I like the place a lot as it's constantly streaming sports and Korean music videos. I would come back and wish there was a place like this closer to where I lived. Def my type of place. They also do takeout and big orders.

    Menu for ramen
    Trendy D.

    I really want to like this place, but everything is such a hit or miss! The ramen was so bland and basic and didn't seem authentic at all. Definitely looks like the took it from the basic ramen party lace at the stores. They threw some spinach leaves in there. My chicken seasoning and spices came off as soon as it hit the broth. I've also ordered their fried chicken so far that's been the only okay thing. That was overbooked sbd burnt a bit, so I could barely taste the flavor. I've ordered their rice cakes which I do enjoy it just breaks apart easily. The lunch bowls and bento boxes are fairly basic. There's tons of seating and the folks are very nice. Great place for drinks they have great deals!!

    We ate everything! We got the Bulgogi and the Rice Balls (3 Pcs.) with Kimchi!!

    The bulgogi and the rice balls with kimchi were AMAZING! It was honestly the best food ever! There also is some K-Pop in the background, which made a nice vibe to the place. The service was amazing, and its never busy, so the food comes out fast. We ate everything

    I was searching for take out when I came across this place. I looked over the menu and I have to say I could have easily ordered a lot more food than what I did. Everything sounded so good. The steamed beef dumplings were the hit of the show. The wrapper was just perfect. The filling flavorful. I could have eaten 5 more orders! The Bulgolgi rice balls were a good size, the texture of the rice was not mushy..I wish it had more bulgolgi in it though. I also got a large order of the chicken wings...half soy garlic, half spicy. Yum! So crunchy! Next time I think I would try the extra spicy because for me the spicy was not too spicy.. The loser of the show were the seafood pancakes. It was very fishy and not in a good..fresh way. It was not edible. There are some other items on the menu I would like to check out.

    Tan Tan Men Ramen (Vegetable Base) - Ordered with no meat but found traces.

    This was our first time ordering from here, we got vege dumplings, vege spring rolls, Spicy Vege Korean Ramen and Spicy Vege Tan Tan Ramen. Unfortunately, the food tasted below average - all the flavors were lacking and was not spicy at all. The tan tan ramen had traces of meat in it, despite ordering for vegetarian option only. This killed the appetite even further and we weren't even able to eat half of the pirtion(s). The prices are more on the higher side and it sucks to spend $50 dollar and have to throw all the food away. The vege dumpling were the only item we were able to finish, unfortunately everything else went to waste. Vegetarian dumplings - 2/5 Vegetarian Spring roll - 1/5 Vege Korean Spicy Ramen - 2/5 Vege Tan Tan Ramen - 1/5 Only good thing about the order was the food got ready quickly and the person at the counter was very nice.

    Crispy and delicious vegetable spring rolls!

This cafe is located in Vienna, and there's plenty of free slanted parking in front as well as parking in the complex next to and across if you're willing to walk. I've been to this location when it first opened years ago and they've really upped their menu and decorations inside since. The ambiance inside is beautiful, ideal for anyone looking for a good Instagram picture. There's so many angles and details so that no matter where you're sitting, there's a good vibe. There's also gorgeous seating outside since it can get crowded. For food, you order from the front and they'll call you when the food is ready. We ordered the dubai gelato and pistachio lokmas. Both were presented tastefully to make sure our eyes and cameras wanted to eat before our stomachs. The dubai gelato was a quality dessert with a good ratio of milk: cream. The pistachio flavor was evident on top, but it was just a kinda tart vanilla ice cream with toppings. I did like it, however, and it paired well with the lokmas. The lokmas were fried to perfection, a nice amount of chewy, and covered with a good ratio of pistachio cream. They were a decent size and conducive to sharing. The prices of everything, overall, was pretty expensive, but the quality definitely made up for it. I'd recommend this cafe to someone looking for a unique sweet treat, catching up with a group of girl friends of 2-4 people, or for a first date!

My wife also really just wanted a cup of the whipped cream and the employee was super kind and gave her one.

The vegetable soup was plain and lacked taste, but the pad thai was flavorful, with a signature flavor and perfectly cooked noodles, enhanced by chicken and peanuts for added protein and texture. The crispy pineapple shrimp fell short of expectations and lacked true crispiness, which was disappointing. Although the portion initially looked generous, it was mostly served atop a bed of lettuce, which made it seem fuller.
