GANGCHU

Honestly the whole place is a vibe and a really nice area to hang out with friends. I got to try their snack player, which is a mix of sweet and savory Korean snacks. I also got their regular boneless chicken tossed with soy garlic sauce and it really does hit the spot and it’s a big plate. I also got to try two different sodas from here one was mango with looks like it was like a creamsicle soda and personally I LOVED IT!! And lastly I tried the Shine Muscat, it kinda taste like white grape juice mixed with sprite, that’s the best I can describe it. But regardless everything was 10/10!!

분위기 짱이고 This place truly lives up to it’s name..강추!!! The food & service blew my mind! The staff was incredibly kind, and gave us free food AND ICE CREAM after we told them we were from out of town and came after running a 5k. Also best chicken I’ve had in my LIFE. You won’t regret spending dinner here. 10/10 will come back again on my next trip to Tampa!!!

Without "Review Research", we blindly visited this restaurant. I was very impressed with the food. Presentation and taste were great. Service was pleasant. The vibe was really cool. However, when I went to wash my hands, I was extremely affected by the dirty restrooms. The state of the restrooms almost completely overshadowed my otherwise good visit. I shall not let the flashback take-over this review! Good food. Good vibe.

The Soy Garlic wings were so delicious. Very flavorful and crispy. The fries had a big serving! Good for 2-3 people. The beef bulgogi was tasty as well. Server was nice and friendly.

Wings were great ,,chicken sandwich was tender and juicy. The beer I ordered was the was so coldest beer I have ever had at any bar. My girlfriend and I will be back . For the food and beer.

Such a vibe!!! We loved it. Food was delicious, and all the servers were really friendly, especially towards our children. I didn't get any before photos of the food because we dug right in. Everything was great and we'd love to visit again.

Our group visited on last Saturday night and ordered Kimchi Fried Rice, Fried Chicken, Tteokbokki Rose, and a beef soup called Yukgaejang (which wasn’t even on the menu 😆). I have to say, the Kimchi Fried Rice was absolutely amazing — one of the best I’ve ever had! The Fried Chicken was also perfectly crispy. We really appreciated the staff making the Yukgaejang for us, even though it wasn’t listed. The service was warm and attentive as well. Thank you!

This place is a hidden gem. The Asian flavors are unique accompaied by a K-pop soundtrack. My issue is no pictures are on the menu. That would make ordering much easier. I enjoyed the mild ramen and veggie dumplings which are top notch. The strawberry lemonade compliments it well. This place is worth trying if you're in the area.

Super vibey place and love the branding throughout the space! They did a great job with keeping the neon aesthetic consistent! The kimchi fried rice was different than others I've had in the past. Not bad, but different. My friend and I got the 12 piece wings half with yangnyeom (sweet/spice) and soy garlic. They were bigger than we expected yet still juicy. We enjoyed both sauces. The staff had gloves for us to use which was super helpful. We loved the snack platter! it was super fun to try each snack and guess what each snack was! I'd love to go back with a group of friends and try more items in the future

Tasty - the other menu photos are not accurate. This one is. They have new ownership. I ate the chicken sandwich and it was crunchy and delicious. I also had the bonchon plate which came with a tasty seaweed, Kim chi, pickles and fish cakes.

Came in for last hour food/drinks with some friends and was absolutely enamored with the hospitality and food. We ordered a little of bit of everything including the Somack tower which was the highlight of the night. The owners shared their love of their culture with us and made us feel welcomed from start to end. Definitely coming back, especially for the karaoke room. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a night out with some friends!

We were craving Korean food, and after seeing Gangchu on Instagram, we decided to visit for weekend dinner. Upon arrival, we realized Gangchu is a lively Korean Karaoke bar, packed with people enjoying their food and drinks. Since tables were full, we grabbed seats at the bar while waiting for a table to open up. After browsing the menu and discussing our options, we started with a Lychee Soju and ordered:Crispy Chicken Sandwich, Chicken Wings, Beef Bulgogi, Japchae. The Lychee Soju was a refreshing and fun way to start our meal. As soon as a table became available, we moved over and soon received our food. The Crispy Chicken Sandwich was seasoned, crispy, and served with french fries that complemented it well. The Chicken Wings were crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Next, we had the Beef Bulgogi, which was tender, flavorful, and easily the best dish of the night. However, Japchae (glass noodles) was disappointing--it lacked the flavor we were expecting, and we've had better versions elsewhere. Overall, Gangchu is a great spot for Korean food, drinks, and a lively atmosphere. If you're looking for a fun place to enjoy Soju, flavorful dishes, and Karaoke, this is the place to be!

We came in for a late dinner and opted to sit outside on the back patio. Service was friendly and helped answer our questions on the menu. We decided on the jalapeno bombs, boneless chicken (sweet and spicy sauce), and gangchu fries. Everything came out hot and delicious! The chicken was perfectly crispy and the sauce was amazing. I already can't wait to come back!

Oh wow!!! I Highly recommend this joint!!! get it?? My coworker and I have a competition to find great places to eat when we travel together and I picked Gangchu because I was craving Korean fried chicken and their dish was AMAZEBALLS!!! F'ing delicious!!! And the Korean kimchi fried rice was Fran freakin tastic!!! We were going to split both dishes and wound up getting an order each. The process was terrific the service was outstanding. The hostess what gorgeous and the room is sleek modern and inviting. You must eat here. Enjoy a cocktail or a beer. Thank you Gangchu 맛있는

Korean fried chicken is fire. Got the buldak sauce flavor this time. Really digging this flavorful chicken. Love Gangchu & its ambiance. Awesome service while picking up food.

Dog friendly and great food! Korean fried chicken, beer, tteokbokki . they have great outdoor seating options. The atmosphere is casual, laid-back, and perfect for a chill meal. staff friendly and accommodating. brought out a water bowl for Steve chill spot

It was great foods, I had the chicken breast sando which was crispy, juicy and yummy ! The fries were also a good one. After a long day at work, somacks definitely hit the spot. Friendly service, the place is fantastic. I would def recommend

I've been going to Gangchu for about 4ish years now and all I can really say is under new management they're killing it!! love going here with my friends. The owners are really attentive and the food menu has definitely been upgraded in the last year. love the jalapeno bombs, bulgogi, and korean ramen are all must have. great place to drink and have dinner with friends or family. awesome vibes, definitely a favorite in the seminole heights area.

Food was amazing, Service was super fast and space is super cool! We had dinner then did some karaoke! This was my first time at Gangchu and it did not disappoint! Food came out super fast and everything was delicious! I ordered the Soy Garlic Boneless wings and these were fried to perfection! Also got to try the Kimchi fried rice and it was super flavorful and fresh! I will def be back to Gangchu!

Visited zootampa so was browsing food options nearby. Passed by this Yelp review for Korean food. Wanted kimchi fried rice so decided to come and try this place out. Boy was I disappointed. We ordered kimchi fried rice, 6 wings (Korean bbq and sweet chili flavor) and the Clifton. The presentation of the food was nice and plated well. But after I took one bite everything went downhill. The rice was hard and not fresh. Like heated up again. Not only that, the rice was topped with breaded chicken breast. It was dry and not juicy. Something was odd about the batter. I was thinking the chicken would be meshed together in the kimchi sauce along with the rice but it tasted like the ingredients were just randomly put together in the end with kimchi juice. Didn't taste authentic whatsoever having come from California. I didn't expect stellar results but it sadly missed the mark. The wings were ok nothing too special to write about unfortunately. The only saving grace was the alcoholic drink. The Clifton was fruity and sweet. Oh and we sat at the table on the far right. There were two flies or bugs flying around the table and we had to keep shooing them away which was super annoying and frustrating. It's just strange how the workers at the restaurant wouldn't notice it and think of it as a concern. We asked to be moved to another table but the bugs still came back so we gave up. Service was friendly and the staff came back to check up on us from time to time.

So good so full I got fried chicken, teebokki fries, bulgoki beef, and the mango soda was so good as well

**New owners, new menu** Love the appetizer Kimchi Jeon, all the flavor without the pungent sourness of regular Kimchi. Service is also prompt and everyone will take the time to explain the menu if you have questions. Get the Korean Snack Plate, it has various Korean snacks that change day to day. The chicken wings are also nice and crunchy with sauces you'll enjoy, but get it on the side of you're not sure. Finally, ask about the Soju pairing with their beers... They have Korean and local beers. Explore and enjoy!

Came here for a friend's birthday (party of 12 - dinner and karaoke). Every staff person was friendly, attentative, and genuinely seemed to care about us having a great time. We started our dinner on the patio. I'm pescatarian, so there were veggie dumplings, veg rice, and plain fries for me, my husband ate the chicken and everything was delicious! The decor is cute and the karaoke was a lot of fun! I'm glad they gave us to-go boxes at the end because there was a lot of food leftover. I'd love to come back here again and try more of the menu.

The new owners redeemed this place! So impressed! So we have been coming to Gangchu for years (under the previous ownership) and the past couple of times there have been a lot of quality issues. (For example, the chicken being pink inside) So that made us stay away for a while. When we found out they recently got new owners, we checked it out and everything was superb. We got the Gangchu fries, japchae, beef dumplings, and wings! No complaints! It's definitely worth giving it another try with fresh eyes!

This is my first time visiting since the change in ownership and I will say it is still great. The newer sauces were both good. Sweet and spicy was my favorite but the Buldak isn't far behind. The fries were kinda lacking in seasoning but nothing a few spritz of salt and pepper couldn't fix. I had a to go order and it was ready the second I pulled in. Coincidence for sure but still awesome. Staff was friendly and that's all you can ask for. I do miss some of the old flavors from old ownership and the ranch from then was the best. That all being said I still love this place and I will be back.

It really went downhill compared to the previous times I've been here...the service is friendly but slow. Place looks cool though. The food is okay: Loaded fries were the best, but the chicken was honestly just okay. Our order came out wrong the first time with no sauce - so they took it back and just tossed it in sauce, I used a Groupon last time I was here and had to reach a minimum spend. So, I ordered a kids chicken to-go and tell me why it looked like a dog treat?? I couldn't eat it. I'm not sure if I'll return any time soon until the quality picks up again.

We stopped by this place for lunch today. We were able to be seated immediately as the restaurant was empty when we arrived. The server immediately brought us menus and provided us with good service throughout the meal. We ordered chicken strips, the sauce sampler, and a banchan plate. However, we were told the only banchan available was kimchi. The kimchi was honestly terrible. Not worth getting at all. It was mushy and salty. The chicken was good. It had a nice crispy breading. The chicken is huge. Honestly too large for my taste. The sauces were ok. The chili oil was the best one.

I've never been to a place that has a private karaoke room. It was a blast! We did two hours and it was amazing. The food and drinks were very good! We did the sweet soy and the sweet and spicy wings, they were delicious. I would highly recommend doing this experience!

I'd like to thank Emi for going above and beyond to ensure that our dinner experience was exceptional. Her sincere welcome and excellent service made all the difference.Our server/bartender Emi, was just fantastic. She understood the cuisine, made excellent suggestions! You are the best EMI !!!

Food and service was good. Food was a la carte and a little pricey for chicken and fries, but it was made well and tasted great. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. I would come back.

Out-stand-ing!! Stopped in for lunch, and this cool little joint did not disappoint. I've been wanting Korean fried chicken and it DELIVERED!! The spicy was so delicious - a light coat on the chicken and the juiciest chicken! The sauce was so delicious. Started with some beef mandoo(dumplings) and it was deliciously crispy fried, with flavorful dipping sauces to add! I can't wait to come back.

The experience was great! There's a selections of drinks and food to try out. The Korean drinks and the food was good! I had a group of 4 to experience the karaoke there. We had a great time! The only thing I would hope for in the future is a bigger wider selections of music to choose from since you can big what's mainstream on the radio to sing too but not a lot out there. Hopefully there's more The customer service was great as well when we needed attention on drinks and food. Definitely to plan on coming back!

Excellent food and service! New owner... New restaurant! Chicken wings were awesome. Highly recommend.

Located in what looks like repurposed garage, Gangchu gave me hipster-Asian vibe. The menu is pretty limited and I didn't try any of the drinks as it was cold that night. Although limited, the food was delicious. I would say it's Asian inspired bar food, not actual entrees. The Japchae (noodles) were good and the Bulgogi beef also was a fan fave that night. I wouldn't come here starving...probably for light bites and drinks.

This is a review of the karaoke room. I have friends who asked me to relay to them what I thought, so I'm writing this review partly for them. The food and drinks are definitely closer to a 4-5 star experience. The less than stellar experience we had with the karaoke room communication is what knocks this down to a three. I'll describe that first. We booked the karaoke room for 7:45 p.m. on a Thursday. If you look online it lists out the main details, up to 12 people to the room, $10 per person per hour, book at full hour intervals only, minimum 1 hour, $30 minimum room rental for parties less than three. This all seems standard. Never did I expect that if you do not book every hour you want to reserve the room do you lose it. For example, I booked 7:45 p.m. If we wanted to stay for two hours (which we did), I would have needed to book the time slot afterwards as well. I mistakenly assumed that by booking 7:45 p.m. we could keep singing as long as they were in hour increments. Even after we got there and got set up in the room, nobody told us that after an hour we would lose the room. We wouldn't have taken a ten minute break to eat if that was the case. So my major suggestions are to update the website to say if you want the room longer than one hour, you need to make separate reservations and that when a party comes in and there is a party directly after them, you should tell them. The other party booked the 9:30 p.m. slot so we weren't pushed out right at 8:45 p.m., but again, nobody told us until our time was up and when we asked for another hour they told us no and that we could always take all our remaining food and drink to the bar. Other than that exceptionally annoying part of the night, the food and drink here is very good. You do need to like spicy food to enjoy a lot of it (I'm pretty bad with spice). In the karaoke room you scan a QR code to order and it all is attached to the same order even if you use multiple phones. This was really neat and super useful to keep ordering things. We got 12 pieces of the Korean BBQ Chicken Wings, 12 pieces of the Korean Dry Rub Chicken Wings, Loaded Fries, Japchae, Kimchi Fried Rice, Banchan Plate, and Tteokbokki. I loved the Dry Rub Chicken Wings. It reminds me of karaage. There is a huge amount of meat on each wing. I thought the Japchae was pretty good. The Loaded Fries, Fried Rice and Tteokbokki was too spicy for me. The daikon on the Banchan plate tasted way too vinegary and the rest of the plate was spicy. This is my personal spiciness tolerance, so if you like spicy you'd probably like it better. I would highly recommend the Dry Rub Chicken Wings. The drinks are fantastic. I loved The Genesee and would get it every time. We also ordered a couple bottles of Soju, which goes well with the wings. We agreed we liked the grapefruit one more than the regular soju. The karaoke room itself is actually really neat. It's nice and clean with two TVs. The iPad to choose songs is easy to work, none of that remote control nonsense of the past. Parking here is kind of difficult. The parking lot was completely filled when we got here. They told us to either park across the street or at the dead end. The neighborhood around it isn't great, but we were able to see across the street parking from the karaoke room, so I just kept watch on the cars. I think had we known about the reservation system, this could have been a five star experience. So my loss is your gain, now you can go and have a five-star-experience. I'll probably search elsewhere for karaoke before returning.

If you don't have time to read here is the takeaway- Get the fried chicken and you better know how many hours you want to sing prior to getting there. No such thing as, playing by ear, or "lets see how we feel after an hour", or if you discovered you're the next Mariah Carey and can hit that note only dogs can hear....sorry you're going to have to come back another day. We made reservations online for the karaoke room and it was simple and easy. It was a school night, and every parking spot was taken, so you can imagine how perturbed I was when I saw one motorcycle taking up a whole spot, when there are spots directly to the left of it that's just enough space for not one, but two motorcycles to fit. A friend went inside and ask where else can we park since she's been circling the neighborhood for a while for a spot. The staff said we can park across the street. Fingers crossed we don't get towed... We ended up doing as we were told, but Seminole Heights doesn't feel the same as Hyde Park. So here we are, across the street from the restaurant, playing Frogger with our life on Nebraska Avenue. When we get inside, it's cute, fun, hippy atmosphere- as expected with any restaurant/establishment in Seminole Height. It's a vibe. We were escorted to our karaoke room, which was beautiful with the graffiti art, spacious seats, and natural and fun lighting. There were standard equipment as like all karaoke room type places, microphones (4), televisions (2) , and an ipad to search for your songs and add in queue. We had a quick tutorial and were left to do our own thing. If you need anything, there's a button you can push and they'll come and check on you. But you can't order food with the person who comes to you. You have to do it on your phone...well I guess my mom and her friends aren't coming here to karaoke. Anyway, it takes away from the customer service piece, it takes time from your one hour allotment because boy, do they start that timer almost immediately, and then someone is stuck on their phone ordering for the group and not able to start singing. Thankfully we are on top of it and already had some songs in mind so started putting those in queue. They came to bring our food order and drinks. Later in the evening, one friend wanted a coke, and the server said sorry, you have to do it on your phone. Literally, by the time she got her phone, scanned the QR code, hit add, then added her credit card information, he could've been back with her coke. Oh and the kicker was it didn't work, so we had to go find someone to order the coke and input it in the system for us. Quick history- they told us at the beginning any of our phones could order the items, and it'll be on the same bill as we planned on splitting...guess they have to "okay" it from their computer system prior to having multiple phones sync to one bill. Moving on... We're singing our hearts out, we're pretending we're Britney Spears, to one of the Spice Girls, to Nicki Minaj. We're having an absolutely good time despite a few minor annoyances. Then that timer went to 0, mid-song, and we were like oh, maybe we just have to let them know we want another hour. Because in many many karaoke establishments I've been to in my lifetime, you just add another hour or three. Well, we push the help button, and the kind server told us unfortunately, we can't continue on as they have another reservations after us. It turns out, you have to know exactly how long you'd like to sing and from that guessing game make that specific reservation time. No where on the website or reservation, where it states, you should reserve however long you need, or if you plan on singing for more than one hour, please reserve multiple spots. But the times on the reservations are odd they're 7:45 or 9:45pm for example...so does that mean someone else booked at 8:45pm? Also, they only have ONE karaoke room so like I said, you better know how long you and your posse wants to hang out and make the appropriate reservations. And get the fried chicken, it was good. I'm willing to try again now that I know all the parameters from this first go around, but it won't be soon.

Best Bulgogi ever! Lots of inexpensive, menu items, tasty Korean ramen, and great fried chicken. The only negative I have is they need to clean up their parking lot because it has Styrofoam and trash is everywhere, not the best first impression.

Came here after seeing a review on instagram. Did not disappoint. The atmosphere was very relaxed with neon colors. My friends and I enjoyed the menu and purchased food we thought would satisfy. The kimchi fried rice was delicious with the crispy yet runny fried egg. It was my first time having tteokbokki and it wasn't dangerously spicy. It was delicious and flavorful. The service was amazing and attentive as we were all new to navigating their menu. They even allowed us to book last minute for the karaoke room. 10/10 Amazing experience for friends and family.

For once, the phrase "new and improved" stands up to scrutiny. If you went to Gangchu in years past and crossed it off your go-to list, please give it another try. We did and we couldn't be happier. The menu has expanded and includes some truly tasty bites. Seriously, worth a second chance.

My wings had the right amount of crunch that one expects from Korean fried chicken. The staff were very friendly and the space was clean and open.

Had the best time ! Came to celebrate my birthday and the staff was very welcoming and accommodating. Food was delicious! Fast service,quality food . Music was K-pop ,bar was busy . They even gave us a free hour of karaoke for my birthday . Will definitely be back and recommend you all to try !

Went to Gangchu for lunch and it definitely didn't disappoint. Although the weather was cool, we asked to sit outside and they had several heaters. There was a nice bar area inside and several tvs for those interested in watching sports. The service was great and the food was equally good. We couldn't decide on one appetizer so we ordered both the loaded fries and dumplings. Both the chicken and grits (had a nice kick to it) and the bibimbap were filling and delicious. Definitely a place that I'll be revisiting.

coldest beer ever. perfect. juan was my server and suggested chicken which i followed his lead, ill be back

Foodie friend was visiting from out of town and Korean fried chicken got his bite for dinner. Four of us gorged ourselves on shared dishes including kimchi fried rice, cheesy corn, and loaded fries. I liked the heat from the kimchi rice. The loaded fries were ok but I would have liked a non-nacho cheese. Cheesy corn was good, if a bit on the greasy side. For my main dish I got the fried chicken sandwich. The chicken was thick and juicy. I liked the breading, crispy but not too thick or greasy. I just wished it had more sauce, both the chicken itself, and the spicy Mayo it came with. I tried my friends' wings and felt similarly. Prices were fair, service was good, portions were reasonable. All in all, a good entry into the genre, even if there were a few minor details I may have changed.

delicious food. nice workers. the crisp on the chicken is immaculate cute little modern vibe inside i'll definitely be back. also had an old fashioned with the Toki japanese whiskey and it was very delicious.

Had one great meal here and have been trying to duplicate it with multiple subsequent visits and haven't been able too. Ube drink is great. Chicken wings are solid, however it won't come out as an appetizer even if specified for it to come first, even if you order it a solid 18 minutes before your main. Beef buologi is good, however the bibibap was bland. Dumplings are solid. Pros for the atmosphere, vibe, and late hours.

I came here even after reading the most recent reviews and glad that I did. First off, I didn't even get the wings (I have before, they were decent but under new ownership could be different) but it is a Korean place, we have to remember.. so it's not crazy that they wouldn't have American buffalo sauce or ranch. I love both of those things but wouldn't expect them at this establishment. Second, I ordered the rose tteokbokki and rice balls, both came out steaming hot and both dishes served by a manager and chef of the kitchen - delicious. I had enough to take home and eat for lunch for next day! Bartender Ianna was very sweet and fun to talk to. Management was friendly, and the place was clean. I would come back again.

Son and I went for a dinner last night and the food and service were great. We shared an order of dumplings which were cooked to perfection. Crispy and hot on the outside and succulent inside. We also got an12 piece wing order. Gangchu known for their fried chicken, did not disappoint. The breading was crispy and a perfect balance (not over done but crunchy) for the moist chicken which fell off the bone. And the Japchae was filled with veggies, mushroom, beef and flavor. Our server was attentive-checking on us often. Would not hesitate to return for some more delicious food and they even have a Karaoke room.

We were looking for a spot to stop and eat dinner after a trip to IKEA and were really excited to see a Korean spot on the map nearby. My husband misses his grandmother's Korean food all the time. It was a Sunday evening and we were seated immediately as it wasn't very busy. We ordered the vegetable dumplings, boneless chicken, the kimchi fried rice with chicken and the japchae with chicken. Looking back we probably wouldn't have ordered the bones less chicken because we didn't know the chicken that came with the meal was the same just cut up haha. Everything came in an odd order. We didn't get the dumplings until after everything else and we almost thought our server forgot to put the order in. The fried boneless chicken came out first. At glance, I thought it was odd the bottom of the plate was wet, I thought it was oil, but it was water. Then we took a bite and the breading was SUPER chewy, again odd. At the second bite we realized the chicken was ice cold (cooked thankfully). Assuming they double fry them and forgot the double fry before plating. This kind of put us in a weird mood for dinner. They were apologetic and they did bring us a fresh plate which was hot and crispy. The breading has no seasoning which I wasn't a fan of, but maybe that's how Korean fried chicken is. We got the sauce sampler for $4 extra and only liked 2-3 of the 5. The japchae noodles were a bit bland. I took it home and added Japanese bbq sauce the next day and ate them cold (how I prefer it). The kimchi fried chicken was the best part of the meal and by far the only thing we'd come back for and maybe to also try the bulgogi (it was expensive so not sure how much protein you get for that price point). With 2 apps, 2 mains, and sharing a bottle of soju, it was $100. The restaurant was very clean overall and it was a nice quiet dinner. Not sure how they are on a Friday and Saturday night. They also do karaoke and trivia nights.

Lunch date with the hubs! This was a terrific choice and I really enjoyed everything! Service and atmosphere were great and so was the drinks and food. Came in on a Saturday for lunch around 1:30ish and it was not busy at all. Greeted and seated immediately. Menu is scanned with your phone. It's not that big inside however they do have outdoor seating and a bar area. They also have 2 restrooms that are gender neutral. Drinks: - Sangria: well because I love sangria! This was delicious ... sweet and delightful. - Minniehaha: this was my favorite! This outdoes the sangria and any drink I've had in quite some time. This is made with pineapple infused Vermouth, Paranubes rum, orange curaçao, lime, almond and ube extract. This is DELICIOUS!! I'll take a pitcher PLEASE :)- Appetizers: - Fried Pickled Daikon: I love daikon radish and often sun this in my dishes rather than having potatoes and love the pickled shreds that are often served at Korean restaurants. So when we saw this on the menu .... Umm yes please. These were absolutely delicious! They were crispy and the Korean rub on them added at tad bit of spice but in a good way. I have to try making these at home. They'd make a great snack food and a lot healthier. - Fried Dumplings: these were good, fried just right. Entrees: - Boneless chicken wings: this place is known for their Korean chicken so I had to get. I'm so glad I got these! I ordered the sweet chili oil as my sauce and although a tad bit spicy for me, they were VERY good! They were crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. They were also HUGE! I ordered 6 pc bit could only eat 4. The dipping sauce is a house sauce that's actually really yummy and helped tame the spice on the wings. - Bibimbap: this was also very good. Seasoning was great and the egg was cooked to perfection! Overall fabulous lunch! Great service and atmosphere! We will definitely be back. FYI, they do charge a 10% "service fee" on the bill that isn't disclosed on the menu.

We heard that the restaurant had new menu items and management so we decided to check it out again and I'm glad we did. The takoyaki was perfect. The corn cheese was exactly what it sounds like, but has a smoky/chargrilled taste and was delicious. My favorite was the rose tteokbokki, but I'll definitely be back to try the classic one again. The service was also great and the food came out quickly.

Amazing food and service! I highly recommend bringing friends and ordering Somaek(Soju and Beer). That is an absolute blast. The private karaoke room is also incredibly fun. Great place to bring friends for food and drinks. (Also the beef bulgogi is delicious.)

1st time here and this place was amazing ! Served took the time to explain the menu and what everything was and some of his favorites I enjoyed the fried chicken , super crispy ( which i love ) and got the sauce sampler so i can taste them all The kimchi fried rice with beef bulgogi is top tier !! Atmosphere was cool , music playing , anime , news etc on tvs definitely a vibe Will return

Still loving the wonderful fried chicken and beer here. The music is great, loud, but definitely sets the mood.

Meh! I have been curious about this place for sometime. Well, curiosity killed the cat as the saying goes. I've now unfolded my curiosity about this place, & it really wasn't a good experience at all. First impression, a non busy Sunday with a server who more than likely was hung over and who looked and acted like she really didn't want to be there, & didn't give a shit. Ordered chicken wings and boneless wings and they were no big deal. The chicken wings were meaty though. Ordered a couple sauces and they gladly charge extra. They automatically have a service charge on there even though it's not a group of five or more. I also added a tip so basically double tipped for crappy service and not so great chicken wings. Probably explains why the server didn't care much bc she knew she would be getting the automatic tip anyway. Definitely won't be back.

Everything about this place is on point. Great service, delicious cocktails, and excellent food. The host and cook went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience!!! If we are ever in Tampa again, we will be back!!!

The servers were so attentive and helpful. The Clifton drink was AMAZING and the food was great. I had a bit of the pork from my friend's taco's and I need to go back to have my own dish with that pork next time.
