Open every day for lunch from 12 to 3 and dinner from 5 to 10.

Some of the best Korean food i have ever had. I don't if knoxville boasts any other Korean restaurants but i doubt they could be better.

The atmosphere is surprisingly comfortable for it's location in a strip mall. Offering both tables and floor seating. The wait staff was friendly and service was better than average.

I had the kimchee fried rice; a traditional dish of rice and sour cabbage. Spicy but not painful just enough to open my sinus passages and leave a pleasant warmth in my mouth. Along with the entrees, several small dishes of various vegetables for sharing. my favorite was a dish of fried potato in a thin sweet sauce.

Prices are reasonable and quantity is ample. Most of the dishes are $7.95 and $8.95. Everyone in my group used a take home box. MANYany Vegetarian entrees are available for those so inclined.
