  i really, really, really like this place.
  
  they have a fairly extensive menu but fish is their specialty. can't go wrong with anything fish. however, some of the non- fish items are just as good (ie, gamjatang).
  
  their banchan seems to change everytime I go, but can't complain because it's always good. especially love the small bokchoy-like kimchee.
  
  just look at how packed it gets by Koreans, how long the wait can get, and the amount of memorabilia from Korean celebrities who've been here that hang on the walls and you know you've come to a really good place.
  
  there is really just want one big downside here but since it's more of a personal preference than anything they're doing, I can't knock off a star. but as a notice to non-Koreans, or even westernized Koreans (like myself): they have something on the menu called chunggookjang, which is kind of like a very strong version of korean miso, that old school Koreans love. however, there is a very strong smell that can be repugnant to those who are not used to it. and apparently this place makes it well, so it may stink inside from ppl ordering it. that's the only downside.
  
  i hate sitting by a table that orders it because i can't stand the smell. but then the food I do order comes out, and I care less about that smell

  I really like this spot.
  
  WHY?
  #1 It's super close to my house.
  #2 They have good banchan.
  #3 Their gopchang jungeol is bomb.
  #4 Their porkbelly with bean sprouts is SUPER GOOD...
  #5 Most of the food here goes well with alcohol :)
  
  The lady that works here is pretty nice too and she's always busy running around serving tables. (But sometimes you have to call them like 2-3 times because for some reason they never "hear" you lol)
  Also, if you don't want to eat inside, they have a small little patio area to enjoy your meal.
  
  They have good combo deals and lunch specials that you can choose from a meat/fish dish and a small stew. Yummy yummy~
  
  If you like korean food, try this restaurant out!

  Came on a Saturday night with 3 friends around 8pm and didn't have to wait. Was greeted and seated instantly. The waitress allow us plenty of time to look through the menu and didn't rush us. We really enjoy the pork belly bean sprout dish. Everything about this dish is perfect. We would definitely come back again!
