Excellent service and high quality food! You wouldn’t think it was a converted garage by the looks of it. Cozy but thoughtful interior. Quite full on a Sunday at 8pm. We loved the lychee house soju!
I came by here while visiting a friend - we got to the restaurant around 7:30pm. The restaurant, on the outside, was very unassuming, however, upon entering, you find a warm and inviting dining interior. There are few booth seats near the entrance, with semi-see through privacy curtains. There was only one party of 2 ahead of us when we got there, but it was still a good 15-20 minute wait. We were seated in the back dining area, and got some drink orders in, as well as an order of spicy edamame. I ended up ordering the stir fried chicken gizzard, which came out sizzling on a serving tray. The gizzard was a bit tougher than I was expecting, but the flavor was good and paired well with the rice and beer. Not too bad overall, but I wish they had wifi, since their menu is via QR code, and signal is very spotty at the back dining room. They did have some printed menus on hand, but we ended up having to ask for them, since neither of us managed to get enough signal to view the online menu. Parking: There are a good number of street parking spots around the area, but they can fill up pretty quick.
Nice restaurant and make sure to reserve!!
Food was amazing! No offense San Francisco but it’s hard to find good Korean food in the city. Toyose reminded me of my childhood and I especially love the corn cheese—very cheesy and very buttery! The spam stew was amazing as well! I just wish they had added beans for the authenticity budae jjigae. I had tried 3 cocktail sojus. The mango, kiwi, and lychee. The best one had to be the kiwi. I recommend it!! The spicy edamame was not really worth getting but the kimchi pancake was pretty good! The whole experience was nice and the restaurant is clean and the servers were all attentive and efficient! Will come back again :)
My best friend and I favorite korean spot. Just can't get enough.
Seafood stew was full of seafood, which is a good alternative for spam stew Budae Jjigae! Seafood pancake and corn cheese were very delicious as well.
Great place with great food. Would recommend getting there early as it's a very small place and a lot of people will be there as well.
I don’t know how this place is 4.4 stars when food is super blend and not tasty at all.. I have notice non of Koreans go here as much as 15 years go after non- Korean kitchen staffs has taken over the kitchen. We had kimchi stew blend lack flavors. Their fish cake soup with udon noodle was super awful I didn’t even touch it. Their chicken very blend and lastly their pancake was so stale barely any taste to it. I had to write a review because it was so bad. They are getting two stars for the service.
