I have been to this place a few times and always loved the customer service. However, it was a disappointing experience yesterday, and I will never return. I ordered a seafood pancake, and I even pointed on the menu to show the waitress what I wanted. She said okay. She left and a few moments later came back to confirm that I ordered the seafood one (number 5). I said yes. Later, she brings out a pancake and leaves. I took a bite and realised it was kimchi and not seafood. When she came back, she brought a seafood one too. I told her that I only ordered seafood but got kimchi instead. She showed me she wrote down kimchi AND seafood pancake on her paper. I said no I only ordered seafood. She took the kimchi one away. Later, a young guy waiter came to our table, and my table asked for straws. And instead of giving us our straws only, he dare had the audacity to say that he took the kimchi pancake off our tab, but we need to be more careful when we order food next time because they end up throwing away food we dont eat. Excuse you, but there wont be a next time. I was disappointed. It was not any of our fault that the worker was incompetent and wrote down the wrong things. For him to say that to us was very rude and unprofessional when it was the workers fault. I understand if I did order the kimchi and refused to eat it, but that was NOT the case. And here is something: I dont even like kimchi, so why the heck would I order a kimchi pancake. Ridiculous. Never going back. Train your workers better.

I found this Korean restaurant located 20 miles away from a major city, and quite excited to find it. Food was OK and good but I thought it was bit pricy for what it is.

Hello Jay! Thank you for your detailed experience review and coming. Our Korean chef (Which worked over 20years) he makes all the sauce . That means it can be little different taste when he makes it. It's not factory sauce. and Our restaurant uses the best quality ingredients. For example one of our side dishes fish cakes , There are many kinds fish cakes at the market the cheapest one usually made in other country. but we buy the expensive one made in korea. You can tell how the taste is better than other restaurant's fish cakes and also all the foods. and shopping at korean markets is very expensive. Our restaurant's price is not too expensive . and We take pride in our food. I'm sure You will come back when you miss our taste. Thank you ! Hopefully see you soon!!

This is my second visit to King's. The first time having been blown away by the quality and flavor of their kimchi, enough to convince me take home two containers of it ala carte, I had to come back for a second helping. I went with the most common dishes this time, bulgogi, japchae, and ddeokbokki, standards I can judge fairly, having a great deal of experience with all. The bulgogi was good. Completely traditional. You won't regret this choice. Not too heavy on any one ingredient, nor underwhelming in the slightest. Bold, well marinated, sweet and juicy. The only improvement to be made would be fire searing. Once you've had bulgogi grilled, there's no going back. Their japchae was better than last time. Previously it was far too heavy on the sesame oil blend while seriously lacking vegetables and meat. It may have been the dregs of the pan. This time it was far more balanced. Still, 3 out of 5 stars based on consistency and comparative quality. The ddeokbokki was outstanding. The best I've had. Nicely sauced with a generous portion of fishcake and perfectly spicy. This is a dish many if not most fail at, like bad Spaghetti-O's, but King's was able to create a delectable flavor that was fully complimentary unto its nature. The kimchi was a little different this time. Not quite as good, but still better than standard. $10 a pound is a bit much though. So why only three stars? Three reasons: 1. I brought my two very respectful sons, a teen and tween. We weren't treated unkindly exactly, but we were ignored often and didn't receive nearly the cordial experience as everyone around us. It was confusing and as a half Korean person, for the first time I actually felt prejudice, as if we were too white or too young and my $105 wasn't as important. I've never been overly sensitive towards these things, but it was a repeated impression I couldn't shake. It made me sad. 2. When I asked for another serving of banchan (side dishes), we had only one, I was informed we would have to pay extra. That was a shock. Never in my 25 years of Korean dining experience have I been charged for additional sides, especially when we have a party. Had we all come in separately, there would have been three servings of bonchon. I opted to pay for the additional plates. 3. The cost. I have been to nearly every Korean restaurant in Minnesota and this is one of the most expensive, though I'm not sure why. The quality is similar, serving portions aren't any greater, and the service is no different. The cuts of meat aren't a higher grade, there is no table grilling service, and their bonchon is fairly limited at five dishes. Frankly the cost is extravagant and not in line with any other ethnic or American fare of the same measure. That being said, the second visit will be my last.
