The food here has a unique flavor: definitely modern tasting Korean flavors that kind of pop compared to similar restaurants. My mom loves this place as well. They do everything well :)

Staff has always been friendly and considerate to make sure the order is complete but "trust and verify" The food has always been delicious which is why we frequent Miso Tofu. Our favorite is #45 Stewed beef spare ribs - mild spicy, large I prefer to-go because the seating is a bit too cozy for my preference, though others are okay with it.

Seriously a hidden gem. I'm honestly surprised more people don't talk about this place because it's…read moreone of the most decent priced AYCE option with endless kalbi. That alone deserves recognition because more and more KBBQ places are limiting that to 2 max per person. The host was attentive, service was quick, and we never had to wait long for anything. Well, minus the additional rice paper and radish dishes here and there nudging them to remind them for a refill. To end the meal, they include ice cream which doesn't happen often. If you ask nicely, they'll even let you get more. A great random find and can't wait to return.

Went on…read morethe weekdays for the $21.99 lunch special, and the servers set up our tables promptly and with a smile, being very receptive and accommodating to our orders. Plenty of condiments, with ssamjang and garlic and their own sour sauce too. The meat comes out in huge slices and plates, and the meat is thinly slices and tender with our brisket and beef belly. The bulgogi is also cut in slices rather than strips, which I prefer. They were very attentive with ordering so you are comfortable throughout the meal. It's a nice and clean spot with window light and bar space. They have blinds as well, so you are comfortable however you want it. There were TVs showing sports, so it was very homely. This place felt like home away from home and I look forward to dining with them again!

She is so lackadaisical when it comes to customer service and give us the air that she is superior and she shouldn't be doing this lowly position... And for whatever reason she keeps not allowing people to use the bathroom in a restaurant and to my knowledge a restaurant has to have a function in bathroom.. At least a shrub and a running hose?

Every disappointment, setback, or challenge at work was healed with a sushi burrito from Kimbobrex :) I'm so glad they are a brick and mortar restaurant now and have had the chance to visit a few times. I love the Spicy Rex Burrito and the Sashimi. The onion sauce is diiiiivine. My mom adores their yellowtail collar! Service is so friendly and warm. You can really tell how much love and care goes into each burrito and dish. Fish is fresh and portions are pretty hefty. Dining area is lovely with the cutest plants and dino drawings. Please give these guys a try if you are in the area!!

I am not sure how this place got so many high ratings but it was one of the worst tasting sushi's…read moreI've ever tried. I ordered a baked Alaskan roll and salmon was stinky, slimy, and inedible! It must have been so old, I was STARVING and couldn't even force myself to eat it. Service was also ridiculously slow, there was one other customer when I was there, and I waited 20 minutes for one sushi order. Sushi and fish need to always be fresh and top quality because it goes bad quickly if not properly handled. I found myself regretting not getting ralphs sushi because that would've been 100x better. Please stop serving customers awful fish quality. If your fish expired or wasn't handled properly, have some integrity and THROW IT OUT.

I LOVE TOFU SOUP!!!…read more got the beef tofu soup and it was deliciousss. one of our group had burnt rice but the staff were quick to replace it. the spicy cucumber here is so good i ate like 2 plates honestly. i will say is that the spice scale isn't super accurate. i am pretty bad with spice so i got a mild and it was just ... alright... i feel like i was missing a lot of the flavor, not just heat level. my friends who got medium and spicy let me try their soups and they were way better and honestly not that much spicier. so i would say give a higher spice level a try if you want more flavor in your broth. we also ordered a bottle of soju to share and some of the spicy chicken. those were good too!

This place is basic, nothing fancy and there's really no ambiance or special feelings associated with it - it's just an old-looking sit-down and serve establishment. The few people sitting to eat were random; I was there to order to-go. After asking what was the patrons favorite dish(es) the lady quickly pointed out the most expensive items on the menu. Of course she did. My eyes rolled but I was polite and decided to order something I recognized and wouldn't hate myself for in the morning. Chicken Teriyaki Can of coke My bill came to $34.23 Ahem! What? Why does a plate of Chicken Teriyaki cost so much? And why $3 for a can of coke? I just cannot wrap my head around it. This isn't a fancy restaurant at all! In fact, it's as basic as it gets with no ambiance or warmth. I cannot recommend this place at all. The food was pretty poor and nowhere near on par with classy eats that try to reach that $$ figure. Montrose is certainly a place where there are people with money and no taste...looking for reasons to spend it willy-nilly. I thought I took a photo of the plate when I got home. Guess not. Avoid if you aren't made of money and prefer well-prepared meals, not quick, mushy fast-foodish stuff.

The waitress seemed like she didn't want to serve us at all. We ordered the gopchang soup 곱창전골 (3-4 person portion) and the galbi soup. The portions were good, but she was very stiff and not friendly. The restaurant was also hot until a group of male customers walked in. After they arrived, the waitress suddenly started smiling and taking their orders. Her attitude was completely different from how she treated us -- a total 180-degree change. And then, magically, the AC started working after those customers walked in lol... Seriously. Please don't treat customers differently based on who they are or based on what they order. We think she treated us like that because we didn't order k barbecue. Otherwise, we don't know what her problem was. Anyways, we didn't appreciate her attitude.
