while I thought the prices seemed pretty affordable and the options were exciting and had a lot of variation, the braised pork I received wasn’t what I was expecting. the white rice rice was stale and even cold in some parts. the egg it came with was also cold. it was just a bit disappointing, but I wouldn’t be against trying something else here.

The service was impecable. The food was good but definitely toned down on the flavor compared to the authentic. Wish the flavors were there a bit more. Other than that it was definitely worth it!

Honestly I’m extremely disappointed, I had ordered the passion fruit tea and when i took my first sip it immediately tasted like perfume, I was there with my sister and had her try it to see if i was crazy and she also agreed it tasted like perfume. I took one last sip to see if i could manage to finish it and I physically could not, so with that I went to the counter and explained it to the male worker and asked if maybe i could replace it since the drink was practically FULL, i didn’t ask for a refund only a replacement. And the male worker said since I drank it he couldn’t replace it (only 3 small sips were taken), and he didn’t even offer a refund for it, instead he had me keep the perfume drink but give me a 30% discount????? so i had to pay $4.91 for a new drink, meaning the $6 i had spent on the perfume drink went to waste because neither me or my sister were gonna force ourselves to drink it. And if that situation wasn’t annoying enough we spent nearly $50 on food that was not the best, the korean street ramen noodles were over cooked, they threw corn and little pieces of sausage in there. My beef soup was easily a 6/10 the beef was dry, and the flavor wasn’t anything special. The korean rice cake and cheese corn dog had sugar on the bottom, and ketchup and mustard on top which personally i did not find appetizing. Then my sister got the fish cakes which tasted like it had been microwaved. I understand it’s meant to be “street korean food” but i do feel a little more care put into the food would make the food more enjoyable :/ . I’m really disappointed and i never wanna be that “karen” but I am so upset that the workers were not able to make up for their poorly made drink. The only good part was the the aesthetic of the store but not even that made my experience better.
