Reviews
Overall the food is very good and self service banchan bar is awesome. Items not always being available and some not being as incredible as I remember is te only thing keeping me from returning to 5 stars. Kalbi was a bit of a let down again as well, but other dishes were all very good, line the tofu soup and jajiangmien.

Definitely still recommending this place but had to round down based on my latest visit.
Two dishes that didn’t live up to my last visit were the cold noodles and Kalbi ribs. The cold noodles had a different flavor and texture to the broth. Good, just not as good as I recall. Not a deal breaker. The Kalbi ribs were even more disappointing. Fatty and chewy.
On the positive side, the two new dishes we tried were awesome. Jjajang mien, which was sold out las time was amazing. Great flavors, actually had meat which some places stopped adding, and was a very large serving. No wonder they sell out! Also tried the soon tofu soup which was equally amazing in flavors, meat ratio and portion size. Definitely must tries.
Service and self service banchan was still great. Almost makes up for the self service pick up and clean up 🙂
—————-
Probably more 4.5 stars, but will round up until I can try them again and see how consistent they are.
The good:
Service is very friendly and helpful
Self serve banchan bar – love that you don’t have to wait, but it is hard not to fill up too much as they were all very good.
Food food food!
Cold noodles – some great flavors and huge servings
Galbi jim – again, great broth and lots of lean meat
Kalbi – add as a combo and save some money. Delicious and much less fatty than many other places nearby
Purple rice!!!
Plenty of parking!
No language barrier – spoke perfect Korean and English. Some Spanish too from what I heard.
Needs improvement:
They ran out of the dish I went there for, which is the Jajangmyun, so that’s a bummer. Will try again.
Parts of the self serve concept. Utensil box was empty at our table and they do expect that you take your dirty dishes back to the front. The place isn’t expensive, but not cheap either. I always get confused with how much to tip in places like this. Still tipped 18%, but not going over that for self serve like i would at full service places. Not a deal breaker, but food for thought.

I was expecting table service but the restaurant is self-service. Walk up to the cashier to order your food and they’ll call your ticket number when the food is ready.
Meanwhile, they have a self-service appetizer bar which I thought was a nice touch. They only have a few selection like kimchi, fish pancake, bean sprouts, chopped lettuce, and pickles. The kimchi was perfect for me, not too spicy nor too salty. The fish pancake was a little under seasoned and could have used some salt.
I ordered Dolsot Bibimpab and it was okay. I like how the clay pot was extremely hot which made the rice crispy on the bottom. It was under seasoned and I had to put a lot of gochujang for taste. I wish there was more meat in it though.
I’ll definitely go back there again to try their other items. I give Somunnan 3.5 stars.
Suggestion: Get rid of the styrofoam bowls/saucers and plastic utensils. It makes the feel of the restaurant more like a cafeteria than a restaurant.
