Amazing Korean seafood dishes.
Came here on my first night back to Korea. The place was quite small, and it was packed with locals coming for drinks after work. Despite making a reservation in advance, we had to wait for 20minutes to get seated.
We got their signature wada-bibi

Good homemade-like Korean food. Not too salty not too sweet. Reasonably priced. Many group tables. We went for a team lunch. No one dish stood out as super tasty but side dishes were good.
