Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes if they're adventurous - the shareable format and buzzy vibe create easy conversation, but skip if they're picky eaters or prefer quiet intimate settings. Window seats at sunset are especially romantic.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Hit or miss - arrive before 7pm or after 11pm for best walk-in odds. Weekend prime time (8-10pm) usually requires 30-45 min wait. Bar seating is first-come, first-served and turns faster.
Is it kid-friendly? Not ideal for young kids - late hours, bar-heavy atmosphere, and spicy adventurous menu make it better for teens and adults. No kids menu or high chairs available.
How much should I budget per person? $35-50 per person with drinks - plan on 2-3 small plates per person plus a soju cocktail or beer. Groups of 4+ can share more variety and spend closer to $40 each.
Do they take walk-ins for large groups? For 6+ people, definitely call ahead - they can sometimes accommodate but need notice to arrange tables. Groups of 4-5 can usually squeeze in during off-peak hours.
Best For
Better for: Late-night social dining with creative fusion twists and sunset views - beats typical KBBQ spots for Instagram-worthy plating and cocktail program, plus the 2am hours trump most Koreatown options
Skip if: You want traditional Korean flavors without fusion, need quiet conversation space, have very picky eaters in your group, or are looking for a quick casual meal under $25/person
