Best Korean restaurant in brisbane! I couldn‘t be satisfied with any Korean restaurant in Brisbane because all the Korean food was too sweet or salty. but this restaurant is the top-tier. It was worthy to drive down to Sunnybank. It's so authentic food! so good. Thank you so much.

Neat Korean restaurant replacing the cult favourite Kengu Ramen store location and they don't disappoint. The menu is small so they don't have anywhere to hide but the flavours deliver. The kimchi is one of the better ones in the area as it's spicy not sour or salty as they hand make daily. I went two time before writing this review because I tried their stonepot jaeyook first which was pretty good before the store owner suggest their soup as that's what they were known for. The beef soup was very clear and flavourful I ended up not leaving a drop as I mixed it with the Korean purple rice with kimichi toppings . They really let the food do the talking as it's Asian shared sitting format as my count there were only 4.5 tables and Parton's shared seating so if your claustrophobic this place might not be for you but later towards their last order time at 2:30 pm you might be able to sneak in with more tables free otherwise it was a great dining experience as your too busy eating anyway to notice anyone around unless it's to check out the other different dishes .

This restaurant is small in size, but surprising is big in mind. There are not many dishes to choose from, but every one of them is delicious. Especially the soup, which is not only juicy and tasty, but also has a strong Korean flavor. My Korean friend recommended me to come here to taste Korean home-style food, and it is indeed understandable and praised.

Had Lunch her after work. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The food tasted so good I forgot to take photos I ordered a soup dish can it came with free side dishes. The portion size was good (especially for me a big eater). I recommend coming here if you're trying to eat authentic korean meals and not just street foods.

Small restaurant with friendly staff. The menu was a little bit small but I guess that makes it easy to make a decision! The food options all looked quite good and we ended up getting the beef brisket soup and the bulgogi with veges. The food came reasonably quickly, with the sides of soup, rice and kimchi. The bulgogi was quite nice but would have been nice to have larger pieces of meat! The beef brisket soup was nice too but it came BOILING HOT and burnt both our mouths :( it also seemed a little small (mostly soup, and not as much content: noodles and meat). The restaurant is fairly small and can probably only seat about 6-8 small groups of people. However, it has a good atmosphere.

Absolutely love the concept of this restaurant. No fancy interior decor, no big menus…just good food. And they nail it with the food They are only open from late morning till late afternoon and the restaurant has a seating capacity of less than 10. The menu is very nice and simple and you can order and pay via the phone. Yes, it can’t get any simpler The food was delicious and the quality was great. I’m usually not into soups but this was actually very nice and homey. We tried the Pollack Soup and the Korean Pork Noodle Soup and they were both great Highly recommend checking them out!

When I had my first spoonful soup of Gukbap(we ordered Sullungtang, beef soup and Pork gukbap) I was in Korea. Their dishes can't be described with simple adjectives such as "good" or "fabulous" their dishes were Korea. Their side dishes were very tasty too. I don't know how else to praise their food. One thing to know though. The restaurants are very small, so you just be mindful of that.
