Kimchi-chiggae and bibimbap here are top notch. Banchan is awesome and the staff…More »

I need to update this (it was my first review), essentially because this is hands down my FAVOURITE and most frequented place to eat and I didn't give it enough praise in the first (too short) edition of my review.

This place is right next to my…More »

OMFG. Why haven't I been here before? Could it be I was afraid to put another Korean place into my current rotation (Buk Chang, Thumbs Up, Tofu Village, Kachi)??

I was really craving kimchijjigae today (for non-Korean food eaters, this is a Korean…More »

I'm on a quest to find the best pork bone soup in the city.

Seoul Sam Mi was the next place on my list to scout out. (It's always busy - that's a good sign in K-town. There are so many dining options in K-town and I've never gone wrong by picking one…More »

Been meaning to write up on this one for awhile.

Once or twice a year I go through a month of "pork bone soup" craze, where I absolutely have to get my Ka-chi fix once a week or so. Usually this takes place when the weather is cold, rainy and a bit…More »

Think this place is currently a little overrated on Yelp! It's not terrible, but just sayin' ;)

Think of Bibimq as a quick lunch spot and not as a dinner spot. (ie don't bring a date here, especially if you want to get some later, it's not going to…More »

More like 2.5 star but I will round up.

I ventured up to the "other Korea town" to meet up with some fellow yelpers for a meal. None of us had visited here before, but it looked like a promising option for a good meal.

My boyfriend and I shared a…More »

Joons specialty is their table top cooking. Most tables come with a built-in stove in the middle of the table where the cooking is done.

Waitstaff will bring out the raw veggies and meat and get things cooking for you, then they come back frequently…More »
