Kuku Korean Cuisine

Inside the simple, clean dining room—which features a bar—the kitchen turns out plates like tender, seasoned galbi, potstickers, and gluten-free grilled mackerel. The staff is accommodating, keeping tea mugs filled while letting tables talk at their own pace. Side dishes like fish cakes open the meal, and the menu rounds out with a yuzu vanilla gelato for dessert. Though preparation can take some time, the relaxed service makes the wait feel easy.
