In Short – Not a typical casual K-town eatery, this upscale restaurant's miniature bridge leads to a formal waiting area. Waitresses donning traditional garb serve the silk-tapestried main room and polished private dining niches. Cuisine from the Kaesong area--milder than South Korean food--is featured. Servers mix julienned veggies and wrap them in rice crepes. Fermented kimchi is stuffed with pine nuts and daikon slices and complemented by noodles tossed with mushrooms and seaweed or hot mustard-jellyfish salad.

if you want to treat yourself or some significant others really well, this place is THE ONE! Service is the best and the food quality was great. They absolutely don't use MSG. Meat was very tender. Soup is really good. I brought my boyfriend for this birthday. The best services.
- Pros: private room, traditional music & custume & food
- Cons: none

I booked this place on the recommendation of several friends for my daughter's first birthday party. My in-laws and I decided to try out this place tonight to get a feel for what the food and service would be like. Wow... that's pretty much what I said most of the night. Nothing new to me in terms of what they served, but the food tasted soooooo good and just... clean. Service was great and I love the private dining rooms for each group of people. Very elegant place, and very inviting. Can't wait to write another review after my daughter's party.
- Pros: Private dining rooms, excellent service & food, elegant atmosphere
- Cons: Not the place for couples to dine -- specialize in group dining

The place is not what it used to be any more. The price range from $49.95 plus tip and tax per person, stratified to the lower scale is way too high for the food that they serve today under the listed menu. They do not serve exactly according to the described menu either. Much better food could be had, spreaded out all at one time, rather than dish by dish as they serve, at other restaurants in the vicinity. Curiosity seekers or big-price tag lovers may be attracted to the place, but food is definitely not worth the price, no matter what they claim as a North Korean specialty. Frankly I do not recommend this place to any one any more.
- Pros: Individual rooms for group.
- Cons: Poor and miniscule size servings of food. Exploitation of customers for excessive profits.
