One thing I like about this place is the great variety of side dishes given, this week, it could be bean sprouts, vegetables, lotus roots, next week, it could be tofu, potato, radish, another week, another entirely different set of cold side dishes, only the kimchi remains the staple of the cold dishes.  So it is hard to get bored coming to this place for a meal and it definitely helps a lot that the most of the side dishes are very tasty and appetizing.  Though the kimchi tends to be a bit too spicy as compared to the Chongga kimchi I love.  The grilled meats are fresh and juicy, throughly marinated with a delicious sauce and the result is absolutely delicious, tasty meats.  Though at a most recent visit, I found that the short rib pork was dry, a bit tough, tasted quite different from the usual sinful, moist pork I had previously.  Not sure if that was a one off thing or there is a change of chef.  Will update on the next visit.  The ginseng chicken soup is not too salty and tasted full of ginseng goodness.  The place is nice, simple and clean, the staff is generally okay, they seem to be really busy, so it is kind of hard to catch their attention.  This is the place I'll go to whenever I want to eat Korean food.

Last Friday - decided to take my better half to a place that had a combination of good ambience and food. After lookign over the recommendations made in this site i decided to try out Gaia Restaurant.

The beef hot pot was not only generously served up with good cuts of meat but the mushrooms (straw and shitake) and fresh veg were a welcome addition. The sides consisting of several small dishes of kim chee and lightly seasoned veg were very refreshing actually.

We could tell the staff was harried by the hungry diners but they were on top of things and were helpful and pleasant despite being needed at 3 different tables at one time.

Definitely returning and i would recommend Gaia not just for the food but for the chill out factor and after work peacefulness to help one unwind.

Great Food, Great Service!

Reasons to go to Gaia Korean Restaurant:

1. Their meat is delicious! (sorry vegetarians!) Try the following: Bulgogi, Gaia Pork Special

2. BANCHAN PARTY! The best part of Gaia is the extensive variety of banchan. Everything was delicious and authentic: the spicy cucumbers, kimchee, potato salad, dried anchovies, pickled radishes, spinach, odeng bokkeum.. yum

3. Excellent Service! Friendly and attentive

4. After bbq, you must try Neng Myung (cold noodle), it's by far the best neng myun in town. refreshing and tasty!
