Now I'm confused!! Are we talking about Korea Garden (on Lamar) or Korea House (on Anderson)? I've been to both and enjoy both, but Korea House tends to be a bit cheaper. However, I've been there two times in a row and the service has been lacking, particularly in one waitress who told a friend of mine she wouldn't translate the menu on the wall because it was for Koreans and he wouldn't like it, being an American! Although, I must add that the other times I've gone and been served by some of the other people, the service has been great!:) I haven't noticed that much difference in the food between the two places, but I'm vegetarian (it could make a difference...). I think both restaurants get their kimchi from the same distributor (what a shame!! It's got an americanized taste to it), but definitely try one or the other. Eleni
