The food is delicious Currently visited here twice so far, both times got stuff from their Korean menu. Both visits, my food came out surprisingly fast, or at least it felt that way. The inside of the place is clean and gives a pseudo-bar feeling, while being very clean and well-kept as a good restaurant should. First food I got was the Bibimbap in the stone bowl. Came out crazy hot. I added some of the red pepper sauce I was given (which I thought was red bean paste, but checked the menu on my next visit to see what it was), and the tastes mingled well together very well. The heat from the food remained until I was nearly done, and was strong enough to blast open my sinuses ^^ The beef within' the bowl was extremely tender, and wasn't chewy in the least. The egg mixed in with the rest of the stuff gave me yet another thing to savor as long as I could. Next visit I got me just some standard beef bulgoki since I wanted to try more things. The meat was just as tender as it was in the bowl, and the sauce was absolutely delicious. The rice that came with was sticky, and wasn't soggy. If it were possible to easily pour some of the sauce from the meat into the rice, I totally would've tried mixing 'em up (although in hindsight I could've just used the spoon that was sitting there on the table unused). All in all, I absolutely recommend anyone to come here, especially since it's the only place serving [good] korean food within' 30min of the area (best rice bowl I've had in Ohio out of the two other places I've tried, too). I've heard good things about this place from a couple of my friends, and I'm really glad I gave it a shot. Only sad thing I can say is that I really wish they had more bowl options to choose from. That way I could just cycle through them each visit :D
Edit: Bit of an update... Their Omurice is beyond delicious. And the portion is big enough to save some for the next day, if you can hold yourself from finishing it in one go. I like to get mine with spicy chicken. Once asked them for VERY spicy chicken and they pulled through exceptionally well. Every bite was like fire running through my mouth xD Wonderful stuff. Plain spicy on its own doesn't come back to...
Read moreWhile the namesake wingburger tasted very good it also stirred a feeling of guilt within at how RICH and gluttonous it was. In my mind I just knew it had well over 1,000 calories. And fat as I am, I just couldn't clear my conscience enough to finish it. I felt like a pig at the slop bucket.
So I threw it out after eating less than half of it. Do I penalize the business for selling something so fattening? Only if I weren't fully aware of how rich the burger indeed was, right? I guess I knew it had hundreds of calories, but thousands? It honestly didn't dawn on me. So, taste: 4 stars, as a meal: 3 stars.
The fries, on the other hand, were five star delicious. Yum!
As for service, I honestly don't think the elderly Asian woman (who was there all alone) appreciated me being there. It was evidentiary when, after talking with me, her face lit up when she took the order of a family who came in after me. The restaurant itself could use a serious cleaning of it's front façade. I don't know why so many Asian restaurants are content to let their windows look an opaque, smudgy, and dark as they are but if I didn't know better, I would think they went out of business long ago. Inside was comfortable though.
Overall,...
Read moreI’ll start by saying that FOOD was 5/5, excellent! There was 7 of us as and not one complaint about temperature or taste. The Bibibop bowls were especially yummy!! Now for the drawback and why I was compelled to leave a negative review. There was 2 parties that walked in after us, AFTER, we had ordered our food that got their food significantly more quickly than we did. Both parties were greeted by the workers so I am assuming the people were regulars. All customers need to be treated the same and orders need to be made in the order they were received if you are going to be open to the public. This isn’t Hollywood and I wouldn’t ‘expect’ for regulars to trump walk in customers. We waited for almost an HOUR for our food. Even after pointing this out to both of the servers, the were told the kitchen had to finish other orders first, which meant the other parties who came in after we had ordered. Hopefully the owners see this and consider making sure serving etiquette is followed, and if there is extenuated waits, that something is offered for...
