“ Went to this korean restaurant with a friend on Thursday evening. It wasnt very busy and our service was quick! The restaurant had k pop music videos playing constantly which added to the quirky but fun vibe of the place. We ordered a LOT of food, Toekbokki, bibimbap, regular fied chicken, soy sauce fried chicken snd seafood scallion kimchi pancakes. Between the two fried chickens I enjoyed the soy sauce more. The toekbokki was to die for, we got it with extra cheese. It was not too spicy. I highly recommend this place. Plenty of street parking and also a large cvs parking lot down the road if you are driving! ”
“ Gets pretty busy here on the weekends. Come here with the expectation of a bar and the experience is great. They have a good selection of food that you can order with your drink. Most drinks are soju based. We got the watermelon soju drink and it was enough to split amongst 4 people. It was well worth since we were able to scrape down the watermelon for some fresh fruit ”
“ I love the service here and the ambience. It's super chill and they accommodate you even when you walk in close to closing, which is very kind. You can't go wrong with any menu items. I went back after this visit and tried the regular fried chicken in their soy and spicy flavor (requested half/half). Bomb (not pictured). If you want a laid back vibe, mood lighting, good music, K-pop on the TV and GREAT food....don't walk, run! ”
“ Myung Dong (known as MD to locals) is always packed on the weekends! There's usually a 30 minute wait or so, but it's worth the wait. Myung Dong may not be the classiest bar, but it's always lots of fun and guarantees a good time with friends. They have plenty of fun drinks and Korean music videos playing in the background. They're known for the drinks here and their food is decent (but other restaurants nearby are better). In order to order drinks you do have to order at least one food item. The drinks here are awesome. I recommend their watermelon or pineapple fruit bowls which comes in an entire fruit. You also can't go wrong with their many flavors of soju. I like their ice cream soju which is very sweet and comes with a cold popsicle inside. If it's your birthday, order the birthday shots and the staff will bring out 6 shots, birthday music and video will play in the background, and the whole restaurant will cheer you on as you take all the shots! The service here is quick and the servers do make small talk and give good recommendations. ”
