   The food was wonderful. The harmony between the ingredients was amazing, and the pairing with makgeolli was outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant. Chef Lee was very kind, and every aspect of the service felt warm and heartfelt. Thank you!

   To say I was blown away would be an understatement. The food was on another level and I am truly grateful for the experience. Each course was bursting with flavor and so perfectly balanced that I am still in awe. The textures were equally impressive offering a symphony of sensations with each bite. Each course felt meticulously crafted and not to mention service was impeccable. The staff were warm and attentive creating a comforting environment. I can’t wait to come back.

   It was a nice restaurant! The menu says what the food will be. It is small portion sizes.

   Too much kimchi doesn’t really compliment the seafood.

    Was very great. Workers are attentive, food was lovely! The only thing was that the duck dish was a little chewy/greasy, but that also makes sense given that duck tends to be fatty. We absolutely loved the omija soju, black sesame noodles, seared saengsun, and the ice cream at the end!

    Thank you, Yooeun! We're so glad you enjoyed the experience and appreciated the dishes and service. We’ll take your duck feedback to heart—it’s always helpful. Hope to see you again soon!
