What Diners Say

★★★★★ Ankit 6 months ago

The best Korean food I have had. The dumplings were juicy and soft. I also tried the tofu stew which was delicious. Even the sides that they provide taste so good. Sad that I’m only visiting SF, would definitely come back here.

★★★★★ Jake Moffatt 3 weeks ago

Wow! Beautiful tasty food and fast service. Maybe a bit pricy by a buck or two per dish but still very happy and we'll be back for more.

★★★★★ Lauren De Meyer 5 months ago

Yummmmmy! I don’t know if I’m allowed to say this as a non-Korean but based on 3 visits to Korea this tested 100% authentic! We had the hot stone bibimbap. Delicious

★★★★★ Oneill Mclean 10 months ago

Stopped by for lunch the other day and was definitely surprised by how great this place was. There was no wait to get a table, I had the Sizzling Works Rice Bowl with Beef Short Ribs-it came out hot and crackling, with perfectly tender ribs and crispy rice at the bottom. My partner had the Works Bow...

So good and very vegetarian friendly! I don’t even like rice and ate two servings of the purple rice that came with my kimchi stew. Highly recommend for anyone looking for stone bowl Korean food.
