I liked the variety of banchan and as a group of four we nearly cleared all of it by the end.
Menu Description:
12. Kimchi Jeon $14.95
Korean-style pancake mixed with kimchi and vegetable.
The kimchi jeon was awesome. I could easily come here, order one of these for myself, and be satisfied.
Menu Description:
Goon Mahn Du $9.95
Deep-fried dumpling with beef, pork, kimchi, tofu, and vegetables.
The dumplings were good, but not amazing. With that being said, the waitress mentioned something that might have been imperfect about them and asked us if they good regardless of the imperfection. Indeed they were still good and there definitely wasn't anything to complain about, but still nothing notable.
Menu Description:
6. Black Goat Junggol $29.95
Black goat with vegetables and noodles cooked in a special casserole.
The casserole was delicious and I definitely ate a lot of it, especially the meat - I enjoy the shredded texture. However, I still liked the pancake more.
After our meal was over the waitress served us a complimentary drink which was deliciously sweet. At the time, the sweet flavor reminded of mung bean. However, I determined today (20160322) that it was almost surely a drink called "sungnyung" which is traditionally made by simmering water over scorched rice (Wikipedia.org).
Overall, I liked both the food and the service here.
