I got the gamjatang which was delicious, but after a bites the owner noticed that it had a burnt smell a little bit. Because of this, the owner came over to check if everything was fine, and wanted to exchange our food. I insisted it was good, but she came back with dumplings. AMAZING SERVICE!Will be back for more, thank you!

After having a bad experience previously from a nearby establishment it was time to give mr chimaek a go. I called in to place my takeaway order, wait was a very reasonable 15-20 mins. Cash discount offcourse, i paid for my food and rushed home. The hostess was courteous, helpful and welcoming. She may have been part of the ownership/management. The decor was very geeky/modern/clean. Each table had a city imprinted on it and the art was intriguing. I absorbed the ambience as i waited for my food. Now to the main part, the chicken. What can i say, it was fried chicken and it was fried chicken, done very well. The sauce was very well done and not runny. I would for sure revisit and try other flavours.

Mozzarella spicy rice cake ??‍(ordered take out. For $20+, The portion and presentation are really disappointing. taste is not impressive but decent. Love the rice cake though, staying chewy even after hours and microwave. Very clean aftertaste, you can tell they use good ingredient. Better go in group share

This was my first visit, and I must say, the restaurant has a fantastic atmosphere with its charming decor featuring various pop culture icons. The interior, while compact, feels spacious enough to create an intimate setting, perfect for groups or a date. The food is on the expensive side, but it's definitely worth it, as everything we tried was delicious. For reference, we ordered the carbonara boneless wings, the cheese butter seasoned boneless wings, and the kimchi fries. Overall, it's a great spot with excellent food and reasonable prices. If I had to mention a downside, it would be that the prices are a bit high, but that's really the only downside.
