Logistics & Planning
Parking: Metered street parking on Broadway and nearby side streets; availability tight during peak dinner hours
Dress code: Casual to smart-casual; jeans and sweaters are common, slightly dressier for date nights
Noise level: Moderate — generally quiet enough for conversation, slightly louder during weekend dinner rush
Weekend wait: 20–40 minutes during peak hours, longer for larger groups
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait; easy to walk in
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — several vegetable plates, tofu dishes, and meat-free sushi rolls
Vegan options: Limited — some sides and rice/noodle dishes may be adaptable; confirm ingredients with staff
Gluten-free options: Partial — some Korean dishes can be made without soy sauce, but cross-contact is possible
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes — the space is cozy and relaxed, with a calm atmosphere that works well for conversation without feeling formal.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Often yes — walk-ins are common on weeknights, but expect a short wait during prime weekend dinner hours.
Is it kid-friendly? Reasonably — the room is small and best for older kids or calm family meals rather than large groups or strollers.
Best For
Better for: Balanced Korean comfort plates plus sushi in a compact, low-key setting that works for solo diners and casual dates
Skip if: You’re seeking large-format Korean BBQ, expansive group seating, or an extensive specialty sushi program
