One of the best Korean restaurants I’ve ever been to. Very fast and friendly service. Food is delicious and surprisingly not fat or heavy. The portions seem huge but in reality it fits it perfectly. It’s a cozy place with no showing off. I am happy to have my birthday lunch here.

Eating lunch here was like taking a trip to Korea, Wow can’t say enough about how good everything tasted. The server was doing a great job taking care of the entire dining room.  He explained everything in English which was a big help. Even the wine list was incredible for a small ethnic restaurant with decent stemware. Definitely coming back soon and will arrive early 3/4 through lunch people where turned away very popular with locals.

A tiny place serving Korean food in the centre of Montpellier. There are tables inside and outside available. The place gets very crowded and noisy in the evening since there's no much space between the tables. The waiters are friendly and helpful, speaking English, there's no a menu in English though. Since it was my first experience with Korean food, it was interesting. (visited in September 2022)
