VIP Restaurant — Restaurant in Alaska

Never thought there would be a Korean restaurant in Anchorage. Our Uber driver recommended this place over the other Korean restaurants around town. This place Iooked like an old school Korean restaurant. There was a decent amount of tables for seating. It started getting busy around 5pm on a Wednesday. Ordered the mandu guk (dumpling soup) and dwehji kimchi bokkeum (kimchi stirfry with pork or chicken). The food didn't take too long to come out. The lady brought out three bonchon first, and I was surprised with the different options. They definitely give you more than most places. The bonchon tasted fresh and crispy! The mandu guk came with about 6-8 dumplings. It was very filling. Soup wasn't bland and not overly flavorful. I think it was absolutely perfect, especially with the dreary weather. Mandu guk came with a bowl of rice, which paired nicely with the soup. I tasted the stir-fry pork with kimchi dish and it was flavorful. It had a nice kick to it as well. I would recommend checking this place out and would...

I tried this because a few people have recommended it.

We (party of 2) were seated right away and after 7-10 mins we received our water and placed our order. No big deal. But a party of 4 that arrived 15 mins after us, placed their order 10 mins after being seated, received their whole order about 5 mins before us. Okay, I was a little annoyed but tried to give it much thought. It wasn't until we requested extra kimchi that I had a problem. Our server rolled her eyes and when she returned she slammed the bowl down before turning away. Every other Korean restaurant I've been has always refilled the banchan without us even asking.

Once I got my box for my extra food, I was putting everything in it and the serve came over and started clearing off the table and dumping the leftover banchan in my box... I didn't request help with that.

Lastly, their bibimbap is the smallest serving I've ever received... not worth the...

The food is delicious no doubta bout it, but the customer services is terribly bad. Not very welcoming. We order a food that we're not so familiar with its writen in Korean languages but in english alphabeth. Our order come in so we started mixing it tasting it a bit then suddenly the server come in without saying a word or any anything grab the food then she gave the food to the other custmer whos sitting behind me, the other food she put it back to thier kitchen! We were just shocked! We couldn't say anything she is fast and rude no words of sorry or anything from them. This is so wrong thinking of health risk specialty this pandemic days! What she did is so unsafe, unsterile, the food is contaminated already, the transmission of communicblae diseases would have been crossed. No thank nor...
