“ This restaurant is one of Banff’s most well-known spots, and for good reason! The staff are incredibly friendly and genuinely care about their guests. Even during busy times, they made sure we were well taken care of. Huge thanks to Nate (or Angel) and the rest of the team for their excellent customer service and strong customer-oriented mindset. We truly appreciated the warm and attentive experience! ”
“ It may not be the most authentic taste but I am just grateful that they’re even there serving up korean food! I’ve had soups here - spicy seafood soup, beef soup with veggies and they are a delight especially because it’s all the way in Banff. It hits the spot every time. Service can be on and off but I’d return anytime I’m in Banff. ”
“ My 1st experience of Korean food and I'm not disappointed at all - a privilege for me. I had the Twigim Mandoo (pork dumplings) & Yukgae Jang (beef & vegetable in a hot & spicy beef broth) and there was enough for 2! Washed down with some Sake and i had an absolute feast of the senses; thank you so much to the staff and the chef, a wonderful experience. I'm only giving 4 stars for the atmosphere because the western style piano 'elevator' music was on a loop i heard 3 times in the 90 minutes i was there......it must drive the staff mad! I'll be back. ”
“ Food tastes good and original. Waiting time takes awhile. You have to write down the name. They will come and call you to the table. ”
