I eat a LOT of Korean food so when I say this is some of the best I've had, I have a frame of reference!
We went on a weeknight and things were quiet. I liked that kpop was playing but not too loud and our server (I think it was Lily!) was super sweet and attentive. I think the service was better than the food, and the food was really really good.
I loved that we got a tray of all of the sides! I feel like a lot of places don't do that anymore. All of the sides were good, I especially liked the potato salad and the pickled radish.
We tried the meat steamed dumplings and they were good! I liked the dipping sauce and they had a great flavor.
After that we got two of the bibimbop bowls! We got the crispy "dolsot" ones. They came out so hot and still sizzling! I had the beef, and it was a well marinated bulgolgi. I loved how crispy the rice got, and the toppings went well with the rice and beef. The sauces were really good and I put a ton of the spicy gochujang sauce on mine, it really made it. I liked that you could specify how your egg was cooked too. Everything tasted amazing and it was just the thing for a cold night.
I got a scallion pancake to go for lunch the next day, and it came with all of the sides again! I was so happy to see more of that potato salad. The pancakes aren't flaky layered ones, but crispy flour ones. The dipping sauce they came with was nice. It was a great portion for lunch.
I cannot wait to come back and try the pork belly in a bibimbop bowl! This is definitely my new favorite place in Bethesda.
First time trying rice wine. Very delicious! Their short ribs were also very good! I took one star off because they have no dessert at all.
Spicy pork couldn’t have been better! Couldn’t have been more authentic.
We also got the Hotstone Bibimbap a crunch large and the crunch was a fantastic surprise. The waiter was so friendly and accommodating too.
New favorite place!
The food was excellent. Quick service, they gave us some delicious kimchi appetizers for starters. We enjoyed the vegetarian bibimbap!

A little hidden gem in Bethesda. I have been here twice now and both times the service was great. The server was very attentive and patient with all requests. The reason I took off a star is for price and both times I was there something from our order was forgotten but given the service and taste of food it was not a big deal. In my most recent visit I got the seafood pancake, beef bibimbop, and the beef soft tofu stew. The beef bibimbop was delicious and came with a good amount of beef surprisingly. The seafood pancake came out as 3 little pancakes and it was a bit more doughy in the middle than I would have preferred (reminds me of the texture of mashed potatoes) but it still tasted nice with the dipping sauce. The beef soft stew was not overly salty which was great and had a good amount of tofu in it. It was also just the right amount of spicy. The plate of small side dishes is always something to look forward to as well! Overall, I would 100% recommend and I will definitely be back. However, I would like to note that the two times I was there the food did take a little bit to come out.

It’s been a few years since I’ve been here so it felt like the first time. I got there around 8p.m. on a Friday night and it was not too busy. I wanted to sit outside but they do not allow outdoor seating once it starts getting dark. That seemed a bit strange since it is a well lit area with fairy lights all over but it wasn’t a big deal so I just sat inside.
I wanted a cocktail but they do not serve any (which was fine) so I ordered a peach soju. I enjoyed it and had plenty left to take home.
I also ordered a seafood pancake, and pork belly hot stone bibimbap. I ordered the large and had leftovers but if you’re hungry and do not order anything else, you may be able to finish it in one sitting.
The seafood pancake was good, it was just missing something. Maybe just a pinch of salt but I didn’t need to add any because the dipping sauce did the trick. The same could be said for the bibimbap but once you throw in the additions and sauces, it’s perfect.
The kimchi was hands down the best I’ve ever had! The potato salad and fish cake was also very delicious.
My server Brian was great. He answered all my questions and helped me with my selections. Once I told him I like my food very spicy, he brought me some additional spices and sauces to try. Thanks Brian!
My total bill was about $43.
This is one of our favorite restaurants in Bethesda! The food is authentic and has a real home cooked meal feel. The atmosphere is endearing and the service is always personal and exceptional. Plus, they have lots of vegan options!
I started eating thé beef galbi before I remembered to take a pic that’s how good it was. Nice small quaint resto in Bethesda
The food here is simply amazing! The pancakes (jeon) are really good! The bibimbap (hot stone) and japchae (sweet potato noodles) are also good!
The service here was the best I have ever experienced anywhere in the states! We will be back for sure!
I can never go back to Chinese takeout again. The Korean food was very authentic and delicious. I had gotten takeout from this place before and this was the first time I ate in. Takeout was really good, but eating it fresh was amazing. The place gets crowded during lunch, so if you have a large party like we did, I recommend getting there right before noon. We were able to snag the one large round table in the back. Some people in our group were new to Korean food, some did not like spicy, and some liked lots of heat. All of our preferences were accommodated. I recommend the seafood pancake, which was gobbled up so fast that I couldn’t get a picture, and the bibimbap with crunchy rice.
