The food was delicious!!! Love how it’s self serve so no tipping is required for people who are on a budget and can’t spare extra to tip. Friendly staff. My favorite was the galbi combo

The best Korean food I’ve had in a while! I’m from the Austin area and we don’t have a restaurant like this. The Korean food in Austin is nothing compared to here. Please open a restaurant here in Austin or Round Rock! We will welcome you with open arms! I ordered the cheong guk jang 청국장 aka stinky bean soup lol 😂 and let me tell you… it was the BOMB.COM! It’s not an easy soup to make and they made it with perfection. We ordered other dishes as well and they were phenomenal! We will definitely be back. We love you MORANOK! ❤️

Been waiting for this place to open. Wasnt sure what they would sell but for right now it looks like their mains are Soondubu (Soft tofu soup) and Bibim bap (Korean mixed rice) there are other meat dishes and soups as well. I did notice they had a new menu printed that was priced differently from their screen menu and luckily the prices were a bit lower. I got the Beef Soondubu combo with the pork neck meat for $20.99. Honestly the soondubu wasnt bad but it wasnt the best ive had in DFW. Im just more used to having a bit of a deep flavor (umami/salted shrimp) but it just tasted kind of basic, but clean. The zuchnni was a little crunchy/hard still was I ddint really like, since the texture of the soft tofu contradicts so much in each bite. The pork neck meat was delicious, a tad sweet but it had a nice grill taste. Thought it was going to be spicy and more red (that what it looks like in the pic) bit it was more brown and lightly seasoned. My friend got the bulgogi which was much sweeter than mine. The banchans (side dishes) were good. The thing i liked the most was the unlimited free Bone Broth on tap. Id like to go again and try some of their other stuff when theyve settled

A Promising Start Beside the New H Mart I had been looking forward to visiting this new restaurant ever since the H Mart opened and the surrounding eateries began welcoming customers. Upon arrival, I was immediately drawn to the atmosphere, the décor felt unique and inviting, setting a warm tone for the meal ahead. This is an order-at-the-counter style restaurant, which keeps things casual and efficient. The pricing is quite reasonable for the portion sizes, offering good value for the quality of food you get. A small but thoughtful touch I appreciated was the self-serve station offering both water and a comforting hot beef bone broth. The broth, as the staff explained, is packed with nutrients and health benefits — and it genuinely tasted wholesome and well-prepared. For my meal, I ordered the mackerel. The flavor was pleasant, but I was expecting a crispier finish; the texture leaned softer than usual, which slightly threw me off. A crispier sear would have complemented the accompanying sauce much better, enhancing the overall experience. One minor drawback during my visit was the music volume. While the playlist itself was enjoyable, it was somewhat loud given there were onl

Very nice Korean restaurant, staff are great and friendly. The food is yummy and plays with your taste buds😋😋In one week we stopped two times. I loved the place. The entrance is exactly beside the Hmart main entrance. It is a self service place with great yummy options on menu.

Everything we ordered was excellent and tasted very authentic. The tonkatsu was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, topped with a rich, savory sauce that paired beautifully with the meat. The portion size was generous, and the side dishes — especially the creamy macaroni salad and fresh shredded cabbage — were well balanced. The grilled meat dish came out sizzling and full of flavor, tender with a nice smoky char, and complemented well by the green onions and sesame seeds. We also tried the cold noodles, which were incredibly refreshing. The broth was clean and light, the noodles had a great texture, and the toppings (including beef and a boiled egg) were simple but done right — perfect for balancing out the heavier dishes. The dumplings were another highlight — soft, delicate wrappers with a juicy, flavorful filling inside. You can really tell they’re made with care. Overall, the food quality was outstanding, the ingredients tasted fresh, and everything felt thoughtfully prepared. This is the kind of place you’ll want to come back to again and again for comforting, well-executed Korean-style dishes. Highly recommended.
