Great service and great food. We sat at the bar and it was good. I'd recommend sitting at the kitchen counter though.

We had a great time at Jeju. Nice ambiance. I went there with my wife and kids. It’s not set up for kids but they made a kids dish and they enjoyed it. Food was cool fusion and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I would go again some day.

It was cold inside. I had to put my coat back on. The waiter took 15 minutes before they came over to take drink orders. They also never came back and checked on us after food was served. I also noticed they seemed to spend a lot of time over by the waitstaff station. The pan fried Mandu was tasteless. The Kanpachi Collars were good, but one was really small. The other was properly sized. The porkchop is generous and tender, but salty. The cabbage and all of the Banchan are good. The French fries are just OK. Nothing we had was craveable. It was just OK. We won't go back.
