We ate the GoeMahk Bibim Bahp (Small Clam Mixed Rice) and it was very good. My wife and I went on a weekday (Thursday) at 7:30pm so although the restaurant was full, we only waited about 10 minutes upstairs in their waiting area, that looked like it could hold roughly 50 people.
I won't say I was disappointed, however, if I had to wait an hour or more, I probably would have been because it wasn't heavenly spectacular good, therefore 4 of 5 stars. The bahn chahn (side dishes) were very good too. We both especially liked the spicy mini-crabs (first picture at the 7 o'clock of the main dish) with the mixed rice dish we had.
My wife stated the same and we are both closet "foodies", especially good Korean food. My wife said the place had a really positive online reputation and she looked the place up for our Thursday dinner.
The restaurant has opens at 4:30pm and closes at early morning...

However, you'll get fed up easily by the taste. That's why you need to order other menus, but the single bibimbab is for 2 people, so it is wise to visit here with more than 3 people. They advise you to order a bowl of rice, when you're done with the bibimbab. There are two floors in the restaurant. And you might have to wait for more than 30mins in dinner times. There is a parking space near...
Read moreVery Very good food. We were there just two people but we had to try both the cockle rice and the beef sashimi so we ordered both. Honestly it was a bit too much but they all tasted so good. It's also common for the people here to just eat half of the cockle rice and pack the rest of them home.
Atmosphere and service were both normal for a simple Korean restaurant, but the food is fantastic and very authentic. Probably one of the most memorable restaurants I've had in my many times in Korea, will love to...
