Excellent ambience. Delicious food. Giant tv with kpop music videos playing. Perfect place to eat after the fromis_9 concert 8/30/2025.

Had the chicken and the rice cakes. A bit more on the pricier edge and wasn't super amazing per se. The cocktail drinks are good though. I liked the mango specialty cocktail. The alcohol taste wasn't super strong there, so if you like mango, some ice cream, and less of an alcohol taste I would recommend this one. The specialty cocktails are all $15+ They played more chill kpop songs on screen but to do karaoke, you would have to go and rent a room out.

I visited this restaurant when it wasn’t too busy. I ordered a hot pot and a few bottles of soju, but it took almost an hour for my food to be served. Meanwhile, other tables that arrived after me had already finished eating while I was still waiting. I understand that this was not the server’s fault. She had already set everything up for us about 45 minutes earlier, and I really appreciate her effort. The food itself was tasty, and I enjoyed the Korean vibe, the decor is lovely and the atmosphere is cozy. However, the long wait was disappointing and made the experience less enjoyable than I had hoped.

came here to celebrate a birthday. when we first arrived, it was super confusing getting into the place. it’s located in the basement of a building. we were seated right away without a reservation. they offered karaoke rooms and regular sit-down seating. despite the karaoke rooms, the noise level wasn’t too loud other than the music they were playing in the dining area. as for the food, it was amazing!! the rose tteokbokki was the highlight. i highly recommend ordering that if it’s your first time checking them out. although pricey, i would say the food was worth it. not to mention, they offer a free soju bomb for your birthday and make it at the table!! i’ll definitely be coming back to try more items on their menu

This place can get quite loud, so I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re hoping to have a deep conversation with your date. But if you’re here for great food and even better drinks, you’re in the right spot. I’ve been twice now, and while some dishes shine more than others, everything has been solid overall. Appetizers - Egg Rolls: Pretty good—soft, a little creamy. - Rice Cake Skewers: Flavorful. If you’re choosing between the two, go for the skewers. The egg rolls will give you protein, but the skewers will give you joy. Drinks I’ve tried the Foam Cloud and the Soju Ice Cream. - The Foam Cloud is the clear winner—basically a dessert cosmopolitan in the best way. You can tell it's from quality soju. - The liquor is dangerously smooth, so pace yourself unless you want to float away after two. Entrées - Kimchi Udon: Had this on my first visit—super flavorful and comforting. - Seafood Ramen: Tried it on my second visit—the spice level drowned out the other flavors for me. - Bibimbap: My husband ordered it once and refused to try anything else because he loved it that much. Dessert We had the trio. It was okay—not bad, but not something I’d reorder.
