This place is definitely a gem and i have been ordering from this place every week through doordash. I am korean and as a korean, i can say this place definitely has one of the best korean food in philly. I usually order when im at work, but there were no utensils inside even tho i checked that i needed utensils on the app. Also we were missing the extra rice that was ordered so one person went without having any rice today. It was not a pleasant lunch today. We had to waste so much time trying to find utensils for ourselves at work.

Service was great and atmosphere is fine. Food was not. The stir fried squid was saturated with sauce instead of truly stir fry and overly sweet (too much sauce). The jigae (soup) didn’t come up hot and was taken off the stove too early. The japchae was too sweet and soggy. I don’t mind paying 20% above market rate for the food but I could have gotten better food at the food court by hmart. Again, service was attentive and certainly not their fault that food was subpar Korean food.

Such an incredible value! That samgyetang (chicken ginseng soup) heals the soul. For $25 you get an entire small chicken and an entire ginseng in a hot tub of nourishing chicken broth. You steel yourself in anticipation of an extremely bitter bite of ginseng, and then you’re back to enjoying the warm embrace of chicken soup. You don’t need to order a side of rice as there’s white rice in the soup, but the seven-grain rice does add a medley of chewiness, nuttiness, sweetness, and that feeling of health. All this comes with a banchan trio of radish, fish cakes, and kimchi, all balanced. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. The only piece of feedback is I wish the gimmari had a crispier batter.

Amazing spot for Korean food in the Ardmore area. It is very near to the suburban square and must visit for trying Korean food delicacies. For us, we went there on a rainy day, entered by shrugging our jackets, welcomed by the host, sat on our chosen seats and ordered some real good food. The Mandu (Korean dumplings) was awesome, the pancakes were great, the chicken dish was delicious, the music was great and matched the vibe of a rainy day. Amazing experience.

We don't eat Korean food often so I was excited to come here before our show. There's so many good dishes to choose from. Our food was fresh & hot, service was friendly. The bibimbap stays super hot the entire time you eat it. Everything was delicious, I love the must've of the white rice. I'm addicted to picked radish now. We enjoyed talking to the neighboring table during our meal.
