Authentic Korean food 🥰🥰went in at 6:30 on a Saturday and it was very crowded. Would recommend booking beforehand 1) Dolsot bibimbap (beef) - delicious, hot and fresh ingredients 4.5/5 2) Tang-soo yuk (pork) - sauce is also poured over meat, crunchy and nicely marinated 4/5 Received some melons as dessert on the house, which was so sweet and a nice touch to the service.
