"분위기도 좋고 서비스도 좋고 음식도 맛있었어요~ 한국 맛이랑 다르다는 몇몇 리뷰가 있던데, 그건 로컬화가 된 부분일 것 같아요. 총 3번 방문했는데, 한 번은 순찌 포장해서 숙소에서 (외국친구가 식겁할 정도로) 생마늘이랑 마늘가루, 고춧가루를 투하했더니 고국의 맛이 나더라고요ㅋㅋ 이태리에선 그렇게 먹을 수 있는 사람 많이 없을 듯..? 담에 시칠리아에 갈 때 또 들릴 수 있으면 좋겠어요~"

"Really excellent find in Palermo! The food was delicious. We ordered mandu, bibimbap, and the banchan. Everything was fantastic! Do not miss stopping in when in Palermo! Super true to the Korean food we've had while in the States."

"Io e mia moglie abbiamo mangiato benissino, cibo e ingredienti di qualità! Gusto superlativo! Consiglio a chi piace il sapore orientale ma anche a chi non l'ha mai provato. I gestori del locale disonibili e gentilissimi. Ritorneremo sicuramente!"

"The restaurant is hella underrated, we had low expectations when we saw 2 white ppl as cooks and service. But we were really positively surprised. I would even say that they cook better then some of the actual Korean cooks that did the same dishes. It was a really small restaurant tho, but it’s understandable with 2 ppl running the place. I would honestly recommend more ppl to honor this place and don’t be alarmed by 2 white Italians cooking, They got the experience for sure. I can see the potential of this restaurant getting bigger and even becoming its own food chain. Honestly the pictures don’t even do the food justice. The amount of flavor in each of these dishes surprised all of us! (Since the restaurant is small, do expect to stand in line)."

"You need try this spot out! The bulgogi and bibimbap were incredibly tasty, blending Korean authenticity with some cool twists. The place had a friendly vibe, and the service was top-notch (especially considering that we were a large group), making the whole dining experience fantastic. If you're into a mix of Korean and Italian flavors, you should definitely give this spot a try. It's the kind of place that makes you want to come back for those delicious tastes again and again!"

"Food is okay but quite oily. Dumplings have nothing in them. Bibimbap is okay but tofu is mushy and dish is oily. Vibe is pretty rough. No music. Has potential but needs work."
