I ordered the mixed 5 pack Korean pancakes. Theyre a bit chewy, and could use more filling. The red bean filling in the pancake could be dispersed more evenly, only 1/3 of it had red bean filling. Similar to the honey one, could use more nuts inside. It’s nice that they are made fresh in store and piping hot! Careful when eating as it may drip and hot! Red bean takes a bit more time since they have to make it ơn the spot. The staff are very kind and friendly. Note: there’s a surcharge for card purchases under $5.

I've been twice in the last month with a couple friends and it was a delight both times. My favorite is the brown sugar pancake! The staff are very friendly and the place has a warm, homey atmosphere. I only wish the walnut cakes were served hot like the hotteok, as they were cold when I got them (still fresh though!) I heated some up in the air fryer when I got home and ah they were even better hot and crisp! :)

On a cold and windy day, the brown sugar Korean pancake was perfect! Made fresh to order ~ I tried a mix of the walnut cakes, and they were all tasty, not too sweet! The waffle cookies half slices of almonds, very crispy. The Madelines were a perfectly fluffy texture. Everything was worth a try! Will definitely be going back 😋

This Korean family-owned walnut cake shop has been around for 34 years and it’s easy to see why. The walnut-shaped cakes are freshly made, soft, and perfectly balanced in sweetness. My favourite is the almond flavour with the semi-sweet potato filling — so comforting and addictive. I also picked up some madeleines and they were excellent… honestly so good that I ended up eating all six myself before meeting my friend. There’s something really special about local businesses that have quietly perfected what they do over decades. The service could use a little polish - perhaps I got her on a bad day - but it felt like I was an inconvenience. However, the delicious baked goods made it all worthwhile. Still worth visiting if you’re in the area, hopefully you’ll catch her in a better mood.
