Ignore all the negative reviews about the mool naeng myun because I just had it and it was pretty good. I can't believe the price of $8.95 for mool naeng myun. Most places charge $11.99 for a bowl of cold noodles and $8.95 is the ultimate bargain. With tax, it's actually $9.80 but that's still crazy cheap. I haven't seen a price like this since the 1990's. If you look at the prices for all the food here, you will notice every thing is pretty cheap. I will come back to try other items because this place might be my favorite Korean restaurant.

Very nice lady working at this place. Good food at a very reasonable price. I ordered the Bibimbap for $8.99. A decent amount of food they serve along with a few banchan consisting of seaweed soup, Kim Chi potatoes, Kim Chi turnips, etc. It was decent for what was ordered. The Bibimbap comes with small proportions of beef, sliced carrots, a fried egg, and spinach, with a small bowl of rice to mix into. The red chili paste in the plastic bottle along with sesame oil was used to mix into the Bibimbap for a spicy kick, and a bit more flavor with the sesame oil... Also probably used to prevent the dish from being too dry. Mix the Bibimbap thoroughly and enjoy!
They have a good variety of items that can be ordered such as gamjatung (pork bone soup) with good amount of meat, oxtail soup, bulgogi with rice and vegetables, just a few I named that was stuck in my mind. My friend ordered the gamjatung, and it was also delicious. It was spicy though... But it was fine.
The food does come out in about 5 minutes. Quite impressive actually! As the name of this place has pretty much proven themselves to serve in a timely manner. But, I wonder if it's still five minutes when they're busy. Lol. We'll see as I plan to come back again soon.
It's located in the food court near a bakery and a coffee shop on the first floor of this plaza. It use to be a car dealership that has been overhauled. Parking with lots of parking spaces (obviously), and it's on Vermont Ave and 5th Street. -

This place is located in the food court of the galleria supermarket and also has a good amount of seating and parking available. Went here early weekend morning, around 10am and they were serving food thankfully as I was starving. Prices are good and I went with the Oxtail Soup. The lady at the register was very nice and warned me that the soup itself really had no flavor and would be accompanied with salt/pepper. I nodded that I was okay with as I've had this in Korea before which was how they make this dish.
After waiting for at least 12 minutes (definitely not 5 :P), I got my food which had the salt and pepper shaker, steamed rice, as well as some ban chan. Ban chan was pretty good but I noticed that some of my friends had different ones though mine was better since I had fish cakes and they didn't. There was a lot of oxtail in the soup which was really awesome. There were about 4 huge chunks and after putting some salt and pepper, tasted perfect. This was exactly what I wanted and wasn't disappointed. I'd eat here all the time if I lived in Ktown. -

Not a bad place. We had to echange our seafood soup, because it lacked seafood. Literally, the person before us looked like they ordered "extra" seafood, but we both literally got the same thing. Just the soup. Please stay consistent with your servings please.
