I wanted to like this, but what we ordered did not taste accurate.
Most tteokbokki I've had in Korean restaurants comes with a red gochujang sauce, but this one was colorless, didn't really taste anything like that and was pretty bland. It also usually comes with fish cakes. Instead we ordered it with pork belly, which to be fair was cooked and seasoned well.
The ramen was closer to what I've had in Japanese restaurants with a soft boiled egg, scallions, noodles, chicken, and hearty broth. But it also included some herb I've not ever had in ramen (maybe basil?) that took away from everything else
I recognize Quincy doesn't have a large Asian population and it makes sense to tailor your dishes to the tastes of your customers, but I think they took too many liberties with these dishes and those who are familiar with them will be put off. And with the prices charged here I can't honestly recommend them
That said, the meat was very flavorful. I might consider trying this place again when they're...
Read moreWhere to start, oh my goodness. Opening the door to this quaint little bistro and hearing k-pop playing, I knew I was in the right place. The staff was incredibly nice and attentive from the very moment we entered. We had made a reservation beforehand so we were seated quickly. The waiter recommended the beef and kimchi dumplings......and they did not disappoint. The dumplings had so much flavor, hands down, best dumplings I have ever had. Now for the main course we had the "Korean-ish BBQ" Bulgolgi. The beef was cooked to perfection, smoky, sweet, savory, juicy, and tender......chefs kiss. Even the banchan was delicious! We finished it all off with the homemade strawberry cheesecake ice cream, which was the perfect ending to this delicious dining experience. To say we cannot wait to go back is an understatement. I understand the menu changes weekly and I can't wait to try the korean fried chicken! So if you are on the fence about going to this place, go, go now,...
Read moreWe love the food here and come all the time but will probably stop coming because of their new server Eden.
She makes us feel like the only thing she cares about is driving up the price of our bill so that she can get a larger tip. (If this is your goal, that's fine, but you could be less obvious about it)
She suggests an upcharge or adding something to your bill at every opportunity. The worst part is how she treats you after you decline. It seems to upset her to the point that her mood and attitude towards you declines and she becomes increasingly rude. This is not a fun dining experience.
Love this place but she's kind of ruining it for us, will probably not come back anymore. I'm not paying money to be pressured into buying things I don't want and then being treated rudely...
