   I cried while eating the pumpkin and eggs. My friend also almost cried about how good the food was. 10/10 would recommend. Shoutout my friend and BTS for recommending this glorious establishment. Great way to start day before Moonbyul concert. Shoutout to Moonbyul my beloved.

   Had my 30th birthday dinner at Daebak - the staff was so fantastic and helpful and were able to make a quick dinner for lots of people with different needs work well for us. Everyone constantly said how good it was and how much they liked it and we had a fantastic time. For everything we got and how many people we fed it was a great deal too. Will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend!

   Very slow service, and felt like we were being rushed through our meal.

   Great experience. The food is delicious and the service is great. I wish that there were some additional options for meats and sides instead of just one beef and one pork option, and most of the sides are spicy, so offering a few less spicy or non-spicy options would be great. Drink options are also limited and sodas are served out of a can with no ice. We did request and received small cups with ice. Overall good experience, but with a few improvements, could really take things to the next level.

   Food was excellent. We were there on a Thursday evening and service was terrible. There was a large party there also and it seems like a lot of effort was going towards them but we were forgotten several times. Our appetizer arrived at the end of our meal and we did not receive the kimchi stew that came with our meal and when I asked the server said they ran out but I don’t think he was planning on saying anything if I hadn’t asked. I would come again for the food because the quality was great and the sides were also delicious.

   Beef package for 4 is just enough. Not too much like ayce but you don’t leave unsatisfied. The staff cooks your meal which is nice. Get the beer tower and try a variety!

    The food was tasty, we had the Beef for 4+ people. The portions were okay, each person received one small bowl of rice, I ended up giving mine to my kids because it wasn't enough for them. We couldn't hear the waiter because the place so pretty lively (not in a bad way), and he was wearing mask and talking low. So that was a bit awkward. The servers seemed disconnected, almost like robots. All in all it was a fun experience but I don't need to rush back.
