Customer Reviews
Thomas Pilcher
I’ve been coming here for years and I’ve never been disappointed. The couple who run the place have always been the nicest people, make the best food, and it’s affordable! I love them and their restaurant!
Joy Bartmon
The food was very tasty, well seasoned, and freshly prepared. Prices are reasonable. There is no table service really though your meal is brought to the table. Orders were taken at the counter by the cook, who was very nice. Free water at the table wasn’t offered. There isn’t really an “atmosphere”. A makeover (with comfortable chairs) is due.
Eric Irmscher
It’s the little hole in the wall and little hole in the wall restaurants tend to have the best food. The food is good. I look forward to trying the Korean food next time (I got sushi). The chef was super nice. Not a ton of seating but plenty since it seems most of their business is take out. It’s definitely recommend it.
