    Came for the Korean Pork Bone Soup only. The broth was well flavoured, but meat tasted a bit off (but not bad). There was a good portion of meat, but there was no potato at all which is disappointing. Good rice and good side dishes, although the portion of the sides were a bit small. Good, comfortable feeling eating here.

    Seems like a family owned restaurant, friendly and all good, but food taste was only 4/5.

    Gives me a warm feeling every time I eat there. Very cozy atmosphere, and my favorite spot to go on cold days. Their fried chicken is next level !

    First of all, i approve the ddukbokki that they make. As a korean, ive never had this tasty ddukbokki before, even back in Korea.
    So i highly recommend ddukbokki here.
    The amount was $14 for 16 ricecakes+noodles, which is a reasonable amount.
    In "seoul soul restaurant" that is nearby, it is $14 for 8 ricecakes+ NO noodles, and the taste is terrible.
    The cook takes pride in ddukbokki.

    The cook seems to go over the reviews time to time so he can improve. One day, because we now remember each others face, he gently asked me how he should deal with this one non-factual review that is making him very depressed. One review that complained how there was a big plastic chunk in the food. He said that food is made on a flat frying pan so there is no way that size chunk could have been in the food. So as a person who likes his food a lot, i will mention this here. As i look at that picture, i also think that is s nonsense. Say that plastic was there, the person probably didnt eat anything in there. But it seems no food is left at all except the sauce.

    Lastly, there is a size-up option with $2~3 extra charge. You won't need to order multiple menus to fill in your stomach.

    제가 먹어본 떡볶이중 제일 맛있네요. 떡볶이 추천합니다.
    양도 나쁘지 않네요. 14불에 떡 16개+면사리. 근처 식당인 seoul soul 에선 14불에 면사리 없이 떡8개, 맛도 최악이었는데 비해 말이죠 (seoul soul 은 라볶이만 파는데, 제가 면대신 떡 더 달라 했었습니다).

    주방장님과 사장님은 음식 개선을 위해 종종 리뷰를 확인하시는것 같습니다. 저와 이제 안면이 터고 친해져서, 하루는 저에게 사실일 리가 없는 리뷰 하나에 대한 억울함을 호소하시더라구요. 음식에 커다란 플라스틱 조각이 들어있었다는 중국인 리뷰인데, 그 음식은 넙적한 후라이팬으로 만들기 때문에 눈에 안띌수가 없다는겁니다. 이 식당 음식 좋아하는 사람으로써 도움 차 언급합니다. 제가 사진 봐도 이상하네요. 저런게 들어있었으면 아예 손도 안댔을텐데, 음식은 안보이고 소스만 남아있네요.

    마지막으로 $2~3 추가에 곱배기 개념(?) 이 있어서 좋습니다.
