    This place is awesome! Food is really good, quite authentic too--growing up in NY, it is very comparable to any korean restaurant there. It's run by a really nice korean couple, especially the cooking, so you know it's legit. Cute, relaxed atmosphere for dining. Very reasonably priced.

    My husband and I have been coming here since 2017 and the owners have treated us like family even when we moved out of Vernon. We used to come once or twice a week back then, now we come every few months or so but the food is always excellent!! This place remains to be the most underrated Asian restaurant in the area. The food is flavorful, has a great kick, and has that amazing home cooked meal feel. The owners are the kindest people and always make sure their customers get the best service. It's always been just the two of them and their hard work had really stood the test of time. I hope they continue to be successful and stick around for years to come!

    Everything was so delicious!! The owner said they just started serving spicy Jjampong ramen it was very tasty & spicy. We loved their bulgogi kimbap. We’ll definitely come back!

    I’ve been coming here since I started dating my bf 5 yrs ago. The food has always been top notch and even though we live in northern MA now, we still take the time to drive over and eat here whenever we’re in the area. Best ramen I’ve ever had and the couple that run the cafe are so sweet.

    My coworkers and I had a great lunch here today. Their sushi is fresh and everyone was satisfied. Collectively we had beef ramen, veggie dumpling ramen and seafood ramen all spicy level. The broth was great, but I wish it was a tad spicier (may just be my preference as everyone else remarked how spicy it was). The ramen mine came with was a tad underdone but not a big deal. We also tried the edamame which was good, seaweed salad and sushi rolls. I had a simple spicy salmon which came with the spicy mayo. The fish was fresh and I can't complain. My coworker got the dynamite roll and really enjoyed it. I like the selection of lunch options. This is now in our rotation for work lunch places and I'm glad we chose it! Thanks 40 west!
