A terrific new option in Providence. Walked past, went in to ask if they had any vegetarian options, and got pointed to the last page, which summarizes the veggie options from the rest of the menu (and there 's a whole page of them). So, despite knowing nothing about them, we decided to give them a try. The main dishes come served on a tray with the main dish (say, a kimchi soup), a side dish (rice to complement the soup), three little sides (today, for vegetarians: a Korean mapo tofu , pickled greens, and corn salad), and a little sweet (watermelon cube with apple bits in syrup). So the presentation and experience is itself something. Every single thing we had was excellent. The main and ri...

Atmosphere: 3 I love the industrial decor with the exposed brick and metal. The music is a bit loud though. I don't know what they use to clean, but the floors, tray, menu sign, and table were all sticky! It was pretty unpleasant. The floor was especially sticky. So much so that my shoe (slip on) nearly came off when going to the bathroom!! Portion: 5 Portion is more than enough. Love that the lunch special also comes with side dishes. The soup is huge with an abundance of dumplings. Flavors: 4 The dumpling soup broth is super flavorful and rich. It was delicious!! The dumplings however could be better. Most of them were broken, and the skin is a bit soft. The side dishes were ok... where's...
Perfect end to a great day after SUPing and visiting Narangasset Beach. Can't deny my Korean roots : lol Special thanks to the waitress/host who saved me a table before the kitchen closed and let me get my yookgaejang fix. You're awesome! The spice level was perfect and there was an abundance of meat/vegetables. Loved it!! Addendum: also went back the next night for even more food. I think the bibimbap could've had more spice and more sauce, but great veggie selection esp the edamame! The seafood soy bean soup was amazing! Prob the best we've had in years!
Love the mood, love the aesthetics, love the music, love the food. Such a great experience here in Mokban. The staff is nice and the food is incredibly delicious. 100 recommend the Bibimbap, especially the beef and a stone dish. We also had the mokban ramen that was really delicious. Would you come back? Now commented for my standard COVID from April 2022. All employees wear masks and the seat is relatively spread. Felt completely comfortable with food inside. Book a table now
Loved the atmosphere of this Korean restaurant. The music was really cool (reminded me of a old world meets reto). Food was exquisite, really loved their presentation especially for the main dish. I had fried beef dumplings, tofu salad, Coco-nut and Chicken Gang Jeong. The coconut with the peanut and orange/tangerine peel was really good and never knew i needed it. Loved it loved it. Have to come back with a crew.
The food was amazing and I love that they have a vegan menu, but they serve all meals with meat sides automatically so I was served sausage, chicken and fish as sidesit’s probably the first time I’ve had animal products served to me because of something I’ve ordered, and now that meat is just thrown away. I’m feeling some vegan guilt. Ask for no meat sides!!
Modern Korean cuisine a bit a new twist on Korean food, but everything was delicious and super filling, we shared dumplings, pancakes and the boggi between two people and we were filled service is a little slow, so prepared for that ... we were not in a hurry, so it was okay!
I was visiting the town and happened to randomly walk by. But it was a pleasant surprise as the food was authentic and good. I especially liked their kimchi stew, but the others were also good and the food presentation was also neat. Highly recommend. Book a table now
Delicious food, fun vibe! We all have the Bibimbap in the stone shell and loved it. I'm sure you can enjoy the crunchy rice on the ground. The decor is fun and full of plants.
I was very blatantly told they would not/could not accommodate a vegan diet by the hostess.
