Reviews

"The food and service was amazing!! Fried dumplings were super yum, thin skin and lots of meat in them, perfect! Side dishes excellent! Main dishes big portions and tasty."
Liene C
"If you want to know where Koreans eat in the Detroit Metro area— this is it. Authentic Korean food. Most other Korean restaurants cater to the American palate and I find them way too greasy or sweet. This place is my parents’ favorite and we eat there every time I go back home. It’s probably closest to what we cook at home."
