There’s nothing dainty about this Korean bar-food joint, so come ready to eat some of the best fried chicken anywhere, sip 50 different flavors of soju, and watch K-pop music videos on multiple screens. Their service team is wonderful, and the bulgogi kimchi fries are addictive (add brisket on the weekend). Familiar classics like dakgalbi and seafood pancakes join several kinds of hotpot, ensuring everyone leaves stuffed and happy.
