As usual we were looking for Korean restaurants and surprisingly we found this one in this small city. Food was really good and fresh, felt like home cooked. Specially the portion was really good. And met the owner Zumi, nicest person ever. She cooks from heart. Would recommend everyone who loves Korean food. We would love to comeback again.

This is one of our favorite places in Salina. The food that Joomi and her staff cook are not fast but made the old fashioned way with the kitchen in full view as they prepare your order. The made from scratch Korean food is truly the way. Savory in all the best ways with extra spice for those who request it. My personal favorite is the kimchi soup which is bubbling, hot, and pungently spicy and tangy. The mandoo fried dumplings are crispy, hot, and fresh. The Seoul Sampler has a bit of everything while the Korean chicken wings are so very good. Seaweed salad and cucumber kimchi are served as choice of sides, but for those in the know ask for the spicy cabbage kimchi that is available on special request. I also can’t think of a better way to consume an egg than the hot stone bibimbap. For me this place is a small family owned restaurant that is 10/10 stars.

This place was so delicious and the people were friendly. I had the Pork Japchae. They were pretty busy, plus we had a party of 12, but didnt really have to wait that long even with the big party. I tried a bunch of my family's food as well, so got a good taste of the whole menu and everything was amazing! They were also very affordable!

I can’t believe how good this food was. We stopped on the way from Colorado. Definitely worth the trip off the interstate! Great vegetarian food.

I placed my order about 5:15pm and got my food about 6pm. Primarily one young man doing the cooking. But I will say it was delicious and worth the wait. Definitely recommend the galbi. Would like to see a larger portion and less rice and other side options. If you are dining out place your order ahead of time. Happy New year!

We stopped in for dinner heading home from Salina. The food and service were beyond excellent. There was a bit of a wait to get our food but the dishes are made to order and the wait time wasn't unreasonable at all. All of the staff I interacted with were extremely polite and courteous. Overall we had a great experience and will definitely return when we're in Salina.

YES! Don't hesitate! This is a diamond in Salina. I'll do my best to stay in a linear order. Atmosphere: Upon arrival i was greeted with a warm hello/welcome then quickly Annyeonghaseyo (hello in Korean). I saw the smiles on the hardworking men and women. The place is open for you to see them cook which is amaizng. The seating area is super clean with low volume music and t.v playing in the background enough to make anyone comfortable. Food: Delicious! I came once for dinner, and got Japchae beef, and lunch hot stone bipimbap pork. Their portions are filling, and that's coming from a contractor who works all day in the sun. I want to try everything they have on the menu. I encourage all walks of life to come and try for yourself, funny thing is I dont even know the family that runs this restaurant, but I feel this is a review I am happy to make (with no one asking me).

I had a great experience at this Korean restaurant! I ordered the kimchi soup and fried rice with chicken, and both dishes were delicious. The kimchi soup had a deep, rich flavor with the perfect amount of spice—really comforting and authentic. The fried rice was well-cooked, flavorful, and packed with tender pieces of chicken. The service was kind and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and clean. Definitely one of the better Korean spots I’ve tried in a while. I’ll be coming back to try more dishes!
