The minime fried chicken sandwich is a must get! The chicken was super juicy and a relatively large portion too. Comes in a cafeteria style aluminum bag and tray.
Great for a quick lunch or those on a budget – get anything from the buffet line or try their pre-packaged food. They also sell Korean Beer and Soju!
Likely to have a hefty wait but put your name down and they'll text you. Food is ok - korean street/bar food but decor and ambiance are fantastic. Best to come in a group.
Great service. They pay close attention to the meats, and do the work for you, unlike many other places in the area. Also, the egg on the side is genius. Everyone should that, no-brainer!

Excellent spot for a quick midtown lunch under $10. Teriyaki bowls @ 7 bucks & sushi hand roll for $2? Not bad. Also the sweets are awesome.

Good beer selection, giant jenga, and giant connect four. Hard to complain about this place. Seems quite popular with out-of-towners, but that comes with the territory for this kind of establishment.
A true heaven for beer enthusiasts, the craft beer selection is just endless, you'll never finish tasting them all!
Awesome HH- lychee cocktail and truffle roasted shrooms ftw! At lunch the tofu shroom bibimbap is a must try. Yes near KTown but very unique in its gastropub atmosphere. Really beautiful space.
