We were rushed out before closing time and were told we had to pay extra after leaving a $40 tip on a miscalculated bill.
Ended up paying $250 ($50 dollar tip included) for three people. Before being rushed out the manager refunded $55 because the waitress overcharged us for our meal. After seeing that all three of us had a few drinks she began to demand extra money.
This was for a small crab soup and large agu-jjim. When I was paying, she told me after 3 sojus the 4th is free. We ended up drinking one glass of the third soju before they closed the shutters around midnight. -

HORRIBLE experience! Don't waste your money.
You do NOT get what you payed for.
They charge $$$ for the below average food and really small portion size.
I cant believe they charged $37+taxes for 1 crab in soy sauce. Its not even that good.
Moreover, a wire came out from our food!
All they gave us was waving $6 soju and taxes.
NOT RESPONSIBLE to own mistake! I have to pay for their mistake. What a horrible service/ business ethic!
If you are looking for Korean crab/seafood soup, go somewhere else! I can confidently say it because i am Korean!
I will never come back!
Don't get fooled by yelp stars on this place! -

I really wanted delivery of some raw soy sauce marinaded crab. On yelp, this restaurant reports that it does delivery. But after calling about 14 times and reaching the busy tone every single time, I gave up and decided to drive my butt over here.
Parking is a bit tricky, there's a small alley way on Western that leads to the valet. It's easy to miss. $2 for valet.
It's about 8:30pm on a Saturday and there was plenty of seating. I was seated right away.
The soy sauce marinaded crab (ganjang gejang) is $36.99 for an order and came with 9 dishes of banchan. The banchan was nothing spectacular but it was ok. I usually LOVE banchan and am not too picky, but I didn't love any of them and some were had to eat with a weird taste.
The crab came out and came with a small bowl of rice topped with fish eggs and sweet seaweed. I appreciated that touch but the seaweed was a bit sweet for my taste for such a savory dish.
MY VERDICT: the raw marinaded crab was very underwhelming. The dish only came with 1 crab (4 cut legs and the head) which seemed extravagantly not worth the price considering other places would offer 2 pieces for a fraction of the price. The flavors were lackluster and just plain salty.
Unfortunately, I'll have to pass on this place and find another place for soy sauce marinaded is raw crab. -

Completely overpriced for non-seafood categories. Foods are not bad. Come if you have too much money in hand and absolutely don't care about cost effectiveness. Service is totally shit.
