Delicious home-made Korean food, with all-you-can eat side dishes and barley tea. Restroom might not be as clean as typical American restaurants, and sometimes server can give you a cold face if you ask for too much ban chan.

Best pastries we've ever tasted, 4 minutes away! If you sit outside with the mist, it's quite romantic (loud music, busy atmosphere inside). With a pub/bar, it is great for couples or young adults looking for a nice place to relax. For a more quiet, homey atmosphere, cross the street to Rosita, a family-friendly Hispanic restaurant.
