   Came with a big group to celebrate 2 birthdays. Ambience, service and food was good (liked the kitchen lay out and modern feel with low lighting) and provided great value for Michelin style meal. We got to try a lot of different things and the service was attentive and detailed. Dishes were tasty and fresh and had a special, fusion taste to traditional Korean food. What stood out about the service was the two complimentary desserts we received for the birthdays with candles and it was a nice touch to conclude the night.

   Our experience, food and service was fantastic. I would highly recommend the small plates of the mushroom dish and the spicy chicken in two buns as being absolutely delightful. Since this was my vegetarian wife's birthday plus unable to eat any gluten dishes, I would have tried some meat dishes. However, everything we had was superior.

   No wonder Bansang has won Michelin Stars! The food here is incredible! We love Korean food and eat it all the time, so we were intrigued by Korean tapas. We loved the mulwhe noodles with sashimi fish over noodles but the fermented gochuchang sauce was so good I kept taking spoonfuls even after we ate the noodles! The uni scallop toast is a must, such a great seafood taste. We also had the Jjimdak Bao which is a spicy shredded chicken in Bao roll, so tasty!! The plates are small but flavors are big. We moved on to the main course which was Radish Kimchi fried rice and Gochuchang Black Cod, both of these dishes I highly recommend. Our waitress gave us great service and direction through the menu. The restaurant is in a very modern space with super high ceilings. I think this is a restaurant that shouldn't be missed! Great food, Great Service and Great Ambiance!

   Amazing food. Only downside was they rushed us by bringing 2 dishes at a time when each dish was being shared. So 2 then 2 then 1. So we ate a large amount of food in under an hour. Would have liked to have taken our time. We will go back there though. The food was amazing, the drinks were amazing. Staff was very welcoming and nice. It was enjoyable.

   Great food! The toast was too small for the price but everything else was worth it!

   A little under wow! I think this is just an experience but nothing I will be revisite. I think server need to introduce their dishes better or showing more knowledge of what they are presenting after this is a Michelle star quality restaurant we all expect more than normal casual dining experience but if you are there the pasta is really well prep and order the kimchi fried with some wrapped or salads dish pair it together if not will be too rich to consume by it self

   Drug addict right outside the door putting a needle in his arm made the area feel unsafe.
