    MY COMFORT KOREAN FOOD. I am Korean myself and grew up coming here. If you want authentic flavors with noodle dishes and kimbap, come here. The noise level is high but you can just tell that everyone here is eating well and is in a good mood after trying the food. The service is amazing during less busier times. The servers also mainly speak Korean but don't let this stop you from trying the amazing dishes z

    It's funny that I'm craving for their hot temperature noodles even if it's 85 degrees outside. Can't resist their tasty broth and kimchi. Who cares about bad service, it's not a Michelin star restaurant. They serve fast, you eat fast and pay reasonable price for lunch.

    This is one of my go-to Ktown spots. All the noodles are delicious, hot or cold. My favorite is the cold soy bean broth with mugwort noodles. (They translate it artemisia on the menu.) The waitress aunties are so warm and bring you more kimchi when you eat well and give them compliments. The old school vibe and food are so comforting. I hope they stick around a long, long time.

    A no-frills Korean noodle and dumpling house with *huge* portions. Parking is free and on site, and service is... serviceable. I was glad they seem to offer kongguksu year round; it was cold, refreshing, thick, and LOADED with noodles. I can eat a lot but I still had to take half of it home. The same goes with all other noodle dishes here. We also shared some tteokbokki, and between it being pleasantly spicy, fishy, and with THICC rice and fish cakes, it's some of the best I think I've had. I've only gone with Korean-speaking friends, who have helped us order and navigate some of the personalities of the ladies waiting on the tables. You have to ask for menus, they flatly refuse to split bills, and they will stare you down as you sign off on tip. But I didn't mind. For the amount of food you get for the price, I'll take a tongue lashing from an ajumma.
