It was cold inside. I had to put my coat back on. The waiter took 15 minutes before they came over to take drink orders. They also never came back and checked on us after food was served. I also noticed they seemed to spend a lot of time over by the waitstaff station. The pan fried Mandu was tasteless. The Kanpachi Collars were good, but one was really small. The other was properly sized. The porkchop is generous and tender, but salty. The cabbage and all of the Banchan are good. The French fries are just OK. Nothing we had was craveable. It was just OK. We won't go back.

It was delicious food and our server was great, but it took way too long to get our pizza.

We went to Jeju for the Bauman’s Cider pizza pop up. It was awesome! We’ll definitely be back for a Jeju dinner :)

Solid ambiance, great cocktails, okay service, great food which there was far too little of. I’ve been to tons of steakhouses and whole animal concept restaurants, and I’ve never spent $250 for two people only to leave this hungry. Terrible value, I’d much rather go to Janken, spend a bit more, have an over the top experience.

This food was wonderful. The service was very quick but I’m sure the set menu helps with that. We did sit at the chef’s counter and I’m used to having a little more dialogue with the chefs but I’m sure they have to read the room a little bit to see if people are wanting to engage or not.
