UPDATE: No more tableside bbq grill but they have the hot plate used in Korea where the oil just drains out of a hole into a bowl. It’s JUST as authentic a feel! I had ordered takeout from here several SEVERAL times after trying really hard to find a good Seolleongtang (설렁탕) soup. Somehow I stumbled across this brand new restaurant (to me) and ordered a few things to try. Basically I order from this place at least once a month now. Tonight I made up my mind to go and sit in and try the actual gopchang and daechang and the other delicious goodies I only saw on TV. OMG I was not disappointed. The atmosphere alone, the inside of the restaurant transports you right to Korea in a small village or street where you have shops that you can pick from to eat street food like these grilled intestines. Do not be afraid to try new things! I was at first very nervous because I am not Korean and my husband isn’t either so I was scared of being judged. Never fear because the owners there are so kind and welcoming as ever so please do not be afraid! So the first thing we did was order large intestine because I have never had it before. ZERO regrets! It tastes like the crispy fatty part of bacon and oh so smokey and wonderfully cleaned. No weirdness at all because they really care about their food preparation. I cannot tell you how much I enjoy eating here. For beginners I would definitely suggest that large intestine because the small intestine has a more bitter taste. For people who don’t want to eat this at all, there are mushrooms and really good beef brisket you can grill! The dishes are served with picked radish and a plate of green chives that you will eat with the grilled food. It comes with dipping sauces as well and some really good hot spicy soup to warm you up for your meal. You can order some deliciously unique purple rice separately or some ramyun noodles. Everything is appropriately distanced and you are seated privately and separately from other patrons. I love it. Give this restaurant a shot! Also don’t mind the loud noises from other diners who are rambunctious. It is because you are encouraged to drink alcohol here with these kinds of food and I think it’s so nice to be in such loud and happy company where people are eating delicious food and drinking delicious drinks. Truly the best most unique of Korean BBQ experiences in Washington State and the only one that is a true and proper GOPCHANG restaurant. AND THEY OPEN LATE SO YOU CAN DRIVE DOWN FROM SEATTLE WITH NO TRAFFIC. Service Dine in Meal type Other Price per person $20–30

I had a very good experience for my first time having these classic Korean soups! We had several which will be added into the photos which I attach along with a ramen side. The SulLungTang was extremely good with a minor learning curve as we discovered that...Read More

I'm quite impressed! It's a bit expensive, but definitely incomparable quality and freshness of intestines in Washington state. I've been numourous places in Korea that have worse gopchangs than here. Great place to ease your GopChang cravings. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100 Recommended dishes Makchang, Naengmyeon

This restaurant is for special Korean foods for drinks, not meals. Not cocktail bar, not pub. They sell special Korean foods for So-Ju(traditional Korean drinks). This special foods are beef intestines. 😋 I understand that many people doesn't like these. But if you interest to...Read More

I like the cozy atmosphere in the restaurant! The ox bone soup is quite good, but it contains meat slices instead of actual beef bones; the beef bulgogi is not short ribs, which is a bit disappointing. The corn cheese is delicious! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per...Read More

The intestine is so crispy and juicy and not too gamey. It is on the higher price point but the quality matches the price! I got the intestine combo and they cook it ahead for you which I love. Very cozy ambience. Great customer service...Read More
