This is one of the few places that I get to bust out my Korean language skills. I rarely get to use it because I don't have many Korean friends nor do I frequent anything Korean-related. But my...

A korean-fresh-seafood joint! I'm a softie for seafood, and this place hit the spot for me. I loved that their crab was piping hot, right off of the steamer. If you're someone that doesn't like to...

My family used to come here at least once a year to get down and dirty -- no, we weren't the effing Aristocrats. We'd order the whole crabs for appetizers which would be strewn on the table very...

Expensive but Yummy! I went with some friends and they ordered the 'half-alive' shrimp. It was a little disturbing to see it still kicking on the plate and watch them rip into it. The steamed crab &...

Pacific Fish is well worth the price... while you can get out for well under 30/person if you order frugally, I'd recommend getting a huge group together and splurging. Order some huge beers, a few...
