The food here is fantastic and the vibe is really cozy and authentic. The nice Korean couple that runs the palace is very hospitable and they remember your name which is really nice. Everything here is good but the spicy pork is especially unique. The only negative is that their kimchi is not the best.

Great place to get delicious food and hang out with friends over a drink. You might as well order a few entrées to share because, as far as I can tell, everything on the menu is worth a try. If you get stuck, there's a helpful list on the back of their most popular dishes and I can vouch for the fact that I couldn't stop sneaking bites of that spicy pork even after I was stuffed.

Low key vibes. Delicious food! I shared the spicy yakisoba noodles with pork. Mouthwateringly good! As well as the soft tofu soup with pork and kimchee. If you like things spicy, don't forget to ask for their red sauce to go with it! Their organic barley tea was a wonderful way to warm up from the outside winds. I will definitely be going back again soon!

Came here on Friday evening with my wife seeking grub and refuge from the weather. The restaurant space is small and brimming with activity. People share large tables and all "make it work" to accommodate others. We waited for about five minutes and a table opened up, so stay put if it's busy, the food is worthwhile. We ordered two bi bim bap bowls (chicken and pork), a scallion pancake, and some Hite beer. Our service was friendly and prompt, and the owners are truly delighted to serve you upon entry. Fortunately, the food matches their enthusiasm and is served very quickly for how fresh it was. The bowls are great portions, the pork and chicken very tender, and all the veggies crisp and clearly fresh. The scallion pancake is terrific, just make sure you're as hungry as we were to tackle more than an entree. Will 100% return to eat here and continue to recommend to friends seeking great Korean, some aesthetic character and a true city eatery.

Really good hole-in-the-wall Korean food right in Capitol Hill. I had the bibimbap with shrimp, and it was delicious and arrived very quickly. The mixture of fresh ingredients and crispy rice really hit the spot. There was no wait whatsoever - even when other restaurants nearby were experiencing one hour waits. Really good option to consider for a casual meal out.
