"I was in the area and decided to stop in to have dinner with my son. It was early (around 5p) on a Saturday so there weren?t many people inside yet. We were greeted and choose to sit at a high top table. The restaurant had a small lounge area, sectionfor live music/entertainment, and tables/chairs, and a full bar. The waitress/bartender was a doll! She was very attentive,efficient, and communicative. She had such a warm presence. We ordered small Caesar salads (which were actually pretty large),catfish bites, crab fries, and wings. Our order came out immediately and was so delicious. The crab fries were a littledifferent than what I?m used to in Baltimore but they were still very good. Overall, we had good food (not great but very good).Even the salad was good lol. Our waitress kept our drinks filled, napkins replenished, and even gave us extra sauces. Weliterally didn?t have to ask for anything. The restaurant is a little small so I would imagine that weekend nights wouldprobably be packed. It?s a bar setting so it wouldn?t be appropriate for kids at night but we didn?t have any issues in theearly evening. The restaurant is located in a shopping center so parking was readily available and free. The building could usesome renovations but it seems like they know how to have a good time in there. Hopefully I?ll be in the area again to attendsome of their adult events (karaoke, live music etc). FYI: they do add an automatic gratuity to your bill. I think they added18% for gratuity but I didn?t mind. I always tip 18-20% for good service anyway. The service was worth it and the food wasbanging. I really enjoyed my server speaking to both my son and I. She made him feel present instead of skipping pass him todirect all communication through me. My son said it made him feel important lol. I?m giving it 4 stars for good food, greatcustomer service, and needing and updated decor/renovations."

"**Fries:** They arrived still crunchy, but frankly, they tasted like any regular fries—nothing special. **Ddhuk So Ddhuk:** I tried the garlic soy and spicy versions. The combination of rice cake and sausage was enjoyable, and I appreciated that the dish wasn't overly sweet. It’s refreshing to see a place that doesn’t Americanize its food; the flavors were well-balanced. **Supreme Chicken:** Unfortunately, this wasn’t crunchy at all—which is usually what I expect from Korean fried chicken. It might have suffered during delivery, but I would have liked some crunch. The flavor was good, though, and I was glad it wasn’t too sweet. **Fried Gizzard:** This dish lacked flavor; the batter could definitely use some improvement. Once again, there wasn't enough crunch. I expected the batter to have a nice crunch that would complement the chewiness of the gizzard. **Soy Garlic Half and Half:** Some pieces of chicken were dry, and I expected them to be juicier. However, they were packed with flavor, although it leaned a bit on the sweeter side for my taste. **Hot Spicy Half and Half:** This was definitely the standout! I loved that it had a spicy kick, and the flavor was well-balanced. The radish that came with it was surprisingly tasty—definitely the best I’ve had, and I usually don’t like radish. It had a nice hint of tartness that paired perfectly with the spicy chicken. **Chicken Feet:** I was thrilled to see these on the menu, and they did not disappoint! They were delicious, with a savory flavor and a nice kick. Overall, I would say this is one of the best places for Korean chicken in the area, and I would recommend it for those looking for authentic flavors. My only critique is that I expected the chicken to have more of a crunchy texture; the batter really needs some work."
