    Pretty expensive, mediocre food, all of the areas that they used to grow the micro greens are abandoned and filthy looking

    You walk in, order, and self service your own water. Probably the best Korean food I had in Portland. Panjeon was so delicious, good combination with bimbimbap. Will definitely come back. Give them a try 😆

    Went with a friend, the atmosphere was good to hangout and not feel bad for sticking around to talk/play games. I was underwhelmed with the flavor of the kimchi jjigae and their kimchi, not a strong flavor for kimchi (lacked vinegar and spice taste). The kimchi soup came with plenty of stuff, not a lot of broth. My friend liked the soondubu (lots of broth) and thought it had a good spice level and seafood flavor. I liked it better but also thought the flavor was lacking. The pancake was good.

    We were so glad we made the stop to this wonderful restaurant! Service was excellent, they were growing microgreens around the restaurant and there is validated parking in the civic garage on the same block! Now on to the food! It was delicious! And I we gazed around the restaurant, the sentiment was shared by all enjoying their meals. Highly recommend!!

    Food came out fast. Beef bulgogi was absolutely phenomenal. Will absolutely be back to this place the next time we're in Portland
