“Superb food from the Korean Fried Chicken and Wedges to bibimbap. Highly recommend. We'll be back!”

“Great food and quick service. The beef bibimbap is great and the little amuse bouches with the food are a fun addition. My only piece of advice is they can stop serving food before the set closing time so try to arrive an hour or so before closing!”

“Lovely food and quick service. Large portions so we had enough to take home as a snack for later! Ordered beef bibimbap and seafood jjigae with a side dish of rice balls. Nice flavours and will definitely return 😁”

“Absolutely love this restaurant! The food is incredibly authentic and tastes just like Korea. The owners and staff are friendly and helpful and the atmosphere is just like a real Pojangmacha (포장마차). If you’re in Sheffield and want to try some authentic Korean cuisine there is no better place!”

“Visited for the first time few weeks ago and ordered: Korean chicken – juicy, with a slightly strong sauce. Tuna gimbap – very generous portion with lots of fillings, well-balanced in flavor, and quite full after just a few pieces. Seafood pancake – crispy and very tasty. The food felt very authentic Korean, and the service was also great. A really enjoyable lunch.”
Highlights
“Delicious and authentic Korean food and drink. The chef is Korean and studied the latest cuisine in Seoul. Reasonable prices for lunch and dinner.”
