“ It is the simply the best Korean restaurant if you to have formal dining experience. We 12 of us had great experience there. I would highly recommend this place. ”
“ Made reservations for my birthday, and the 5 of us were seated right away. The interior is gorgeous, and seating areas are separated in such a way that every table feels intimate and private. We got the wagyu service and traditional menu service, and both were fantastic. When the waitstaff realized it was my birthday, they brought out seaweed soup (traditional Korean birthday food) for me. Ya'll... just look at all that flavor. The meat so succulent and tender and all but melted in my mouth. Would definitely come back to order this a la carte. I never cared for seaweed soup, but Kyung Bok Kung's made me realize I just never had good seaweed soup. The wagyu was incredible, tasty with and without marinade. Waitstaff was attentive without overbearing, we never had to lift a finger to cook or tend the meat. I worried the upper-scale ambiance might mean snooty service, but they everyone was sweet and patient. We asked about the tasting salts at the table, as one of them had a burgundy tint, and our waitress informed us that it was a red-wine infused salt -- some people with sensitive palettes would comment on it, but she couldn't really tell the difference. She was so real and I love her for that. It's been a couple months since, and no joke, I think about this place at least once a week. I definitely will be back to try the rest of the menu. ”
“ A higher end Korean dining experience-- from the decor, to the service, to the presentation of food and prices. We enjoyed a large group Holiday dinner here. Everyone enjoyed their meals and we appreciated the call button responsiveness. None were in the mood for KBBQ , so we ordered entrees -- the bento boxes were perfect. The galbi, the squid and pork, and the eel were presented with aged Kim chee, jap chae, stuffed perilla leaves, and rice with tamagotchi. The combination of textures and flavors were just so darn good. A keeper! ”
“ Fantastic KBBQ experience. Felt like royalty with the nice decor and platings. Solid meats and solid side dishes ”
“ My family and I were pleasantly surprised by the food! We've been before a few times over the past years, were never really impressed, and thought it wasn't worth the price. We went back a few months ago and the set menu was really unique from any other Korean restaurant in OC, and most importantly tasted good too. The fact that my Korean grandma loved it really says a lot. It's a great place to go if you're looking for something a little more upscale. ”
“ Great dining experience with important guests. Made reservations for 4 people. The front desk hostess was super friendly and professional. As you walk in, was greeted with very warm welcoming and cheerful music but bit loud to my liking. I loved the clean modern interior. All the seats had private booth, less distraction so you can focus on your guests. Service was excellent. Food came out nice orderly fashion, visually pleasing and appetizing. Love the presentation but the eating plate was bit too small and flat with pedestal so if you add sauces, it would drip over the plate. Marinade BBQ short rib was a bomb, super moist, tender and perfectly seasoned. So end up order extra. We ordered : **Gu jul pan ( nine varieties of veggies & meats with small mini pancakes ) ** Mo deum jun ( varieties of mini pancakes ) ** 3 orders of marinated BBQ ribs ** 2 side of cold noodles soup /1spicy noodles mix Special order of seaweed soup set as complimentary for birthday guest, which was very impressive. Over All experience was wonderful bit pricy but it was great place to bring important guests to make them feel little special. Service & atmosphere was excellent. Want to come back :) ”
“ Went here on a Friday night with a group of friends, and it was a fantastic experience! The restaurant has a warm, welcoming ambiance, and we were seated in one of their VIP rooms--spacious and perfect for our group of six. We opted for the premium beef grill course, and wow, it was a feast! There was so much food, and we enjoyed every bit of it. Our favorites were the spicy beef tartare and pan-fried sliced beef. For the grill, we chose marinated galbi, beef tongue, and boneless short ribs, and they were all amazing--perfectly marinated and tender. We were pretty much stuffed after the beef course and couldn't make it through the next three courses! Ended up packing the spicy cold noodles and cold noodles to go. The cinnamon tea at the end was delicious, but we were too full to finish it. Shoutout to our server, Yoon, who was super entertaining and kept us laughing throughout the night. Great food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere--definitely a place worth coming back to! ”
“ Food: Beef Special Grill Course ($69 + tax/tip) - 1) Porridge/Salad/Radish Water Kimchi, 2) Spicy Beef Tartare/Pan-Fried Sliced Beef/Cold Salad-Scallops + Shrimp Salad/Mung Bean Jelly Salad, 3) Marinated Beef Short Rib, 4) Fried Dish/Seasonal Soup, 5) Buckwheat Noodle, 6) Cinnamon Tea, 7) Dessert-Rice Custard w/ Roasted Soybean Powder + Sugar - WOW!!! This was a really good deal, but even more important the food tasted excellent!!! Some of the dishes I've had before like kkaennip kimchi (perilla leaf kimchi) was really good. All of the ingredients tasted fresh and high quality. The Marinated Beef Short Rib (galbi) was cooked over binchotan/daimyo (oak branch charcoal). Service: great, personal service in a private room; they cook the galbi for you and cut it up into smaller bite-sized pieces Design: interiors is a combination of contemporary with Korean styling touches throughout; light-to-medium wood tones throughout with paper lanterns Overall: One of the best elevated Korean dining experiences I've had in So Cal. I definitely recommend the course menu. ”
“ An extremely well decorated establishment that reminded me of Korea! First great impression. My friend and I went at an awkward hour on a Sunday so it was pretty much empty. Service was okay - the server appeared sick and was coughing, yet still served. Another server that seated us was in shambles with silverware and napkins dropping on the floor numerous times. My friend and I thought it was funny and we didn't care too much. With that, I gave it 5 stars because the food was great!! It outweighed everything else. Totally worth the premium price and left extremely satisfied with everything that came out. I plan on going again and recommend you try it as well! ”
