I really enjoy their katsu special. It's served hot and crispy because it's made fresh to order! The sauce is incredibly delicious as well!

I wish we had ordered a smaller portion because the serving size is huge! However, it's incredibly delicious, so I definitely recommend it.

Gamja-tang is their signature dish, so I decided to try it. The soup was delicious, but the pork bones were a bit bland, possibly due to how they are traditionally prepared. It would have been nice to have a dipping sauce for the pork bones. On the other hand, the stir-fried pork feet were well-marinated and packed with flavor. Overall, the restaurant was quite busy, and at times the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed.

Rich, garlicky pork bone soup. The biggest pot came with 5 huge pork bones and is enough for 3 people. The price is unbeatable and service is quick. The seafood pancake was thin and crisp. Next time I would order more vegetables and sides to the hotpot.

Best Gamja tang i have ever had！Lots of pork, tofu, potato, and vegetables in one pot. Enough for 3-4 people.
