Mayo stands out with dishes like the Yellowtail bibimbap that showcase fresh and perfectly seasoned ingredients. It’s just the right balance of spice and flavors.
For a taste of traditional Korean, the house kimchi and Korean fried chicken were standout dishes. The fried chicken had just the right amount of crispiness, and the kimchi added a perfect punch of flavor.
The Moyo bossom, with its smoky char-grilled pork, is also fantastic if you want something more filling.

We tried the marinated crab, BBQ beef and pork set, and seafood pancake. While the crab was a bit pricey at $530, the BBQ meats were high-quality and delicious (as you’d expect from Korean-quality food).
The staff were friendly and attentive, even going the extra mile to make sure a toddler at another table was well taken care of.

Hancham’s new location is spacious and convenient, making it a great spot for a Korean feast with a big group. We were really impressed by their soy shrimp and crab, which were absolutely delicious when paired with butter rice.
The Jeju pork belly and prawn stew were highlights of the meal as they’re tender and flavorful.
We also enjoyed the stir-fried vermicelli with beef and spicy rice cake soup, both of which had a great kick.
The prices are reasonable, especially for the lunch set meals. The a la carte dinner options, though, are a bit pricier.
The portion sizes are generous so you can really drop by for a hearty meal. The tables are a bit packed though, so it can get noisy during peak hours – take note!

The staff recommended their seafood pancake, and it did not disappoint! Crispy on the outside and packed with fresh seafood, it was one of our favorites. Their spicy seafood ramen also hit the spot with just the right amount of heat.
The place does get a bit loud, but that only adds to the energetic vibe. You may want to skip though if you’re only going solo!
