I genuinely love this place and have been here many times! The workers are always attentive, the portions are generous, and there's free 90-minute parking in the structure next door. I've tried almost everything on the menu and enjoyed it all. My personal favorite is the mala tteokbokki, which is hard to find outside of one other spot in K-Town. I also appreciate that they offer single-portion sizes for the bossam, which is perfect when I come alone. The ambiance is calming, it's rarely crowded, and the seating is spacious.
The only reason I'm docking two stars is because of their inconsistent hours. Out of the seven or so times I've tried to come, the restaurant has been closed three or four times--once for electrical issues, another because the chef was out sick, and the others for reasons that weren't posted. I always check their hours online on Yelp, Google Maps, or Instagram before heading over, since it's frustrating to arrive and find them closed. Even with that, I've still made a couple of trips in vain, which has been disappointing. I think it would really help if they updated their Yelp hours more consistently so customers know what to expect.
