Most Disliked
Some visitors note that the limited seating can become an issue during peak hours, making it tough to find a table. The cozy setup may lead to wait times, especially on busy evenings. Although the staff is friendly and attentive, the small space can feel a bit cramped when filled with patrons. A few diners mention wanting more expansive menu options, particularly additional vegetarian or fusion offerings to cater to diverse dietary preferences. Additionally, the lack of an official online presence may hinder some potential customers from easily viewing the menu or making inquiries.

Their food is delicious, I Iike the chicken barbeque with four side dishes. There are many dishes to choose from. There is limited space only six tables. It is good for small group. They have also catering services.

Really fresh korean food. The kimchee was very good. Had the Bibimbap. Very good food and for a good price. Tried a lot of places in Wahiawa and was not impressed. This place is top. Update: the Korean chicken is fire. Everything was flavored perfectly.

The owner makes sure she gets your order right and is very friendly. The portion sizes here are great. My husband and I were able to eat off one combo plate while also sharing an appetizer. I highly recommend the korean fried chicken plate. Absolutely would visit this location again.

My go-to for big portions of meat, rice, and exotic vegetable-looking stuff. I don’t know what all the sides are, but I know which ones I like (the green stuff is my personal favorite) and you get plenty of them. For around $14 you get more flavorful food than anyone needs to eat in one go, but it takes discipline to leave any behind.

I came with a group of 5 guys and all of us are completely satisfied and agree on my 5 star review! Delicious mac salad, phenomenal chicken katsu and tasty short ribs. Nice workers too (:

Very clean and spectacular hospitality, it’s funny how I started this review even before I got my food! The food at the hot bar looks fresh, which rare for places that offer one. I came here, actually heading to Denny’s and decided to try something different. The restaurants nearby offer rather pricy meals, and this one offers pretty reasonable prices compared to its competitors. ~ I got the Loco Moco, very large and hearty meal for the price, also purchased a Coffee Bubble Drink. Will definitely be returning here soon!

Great Korean and local grinds! Customer service is good. They are generous with food.Get the potato salad! Perfect comfort food and awesome selections. The ramen shop next door was whack.
