Sun & Moon Korean - East Providence

Ordered tuna gimbap appetizer and kalbitang main. The gimbap was not too strong, but not too weak on flavor; it just met expectations. The kalbitang however was underwhelming in flavor, could have added more seasoning, because the bone broth tasted like a diluted/watered down bone broth with a hint of salt and pepper, otherwise there are 2 large chunks of meat that fall right off the bones very easily and was somewhat tender. And in traditional Korean fashion, you are served with free side dishes, im not sure if the side dishes change from day to day, but in my case I was served with seasoned bean sprouts, kimchi (of course, but it tasted like the “fresh/unfermented” kimchi) and marinaded cucumbers. Overall, this place is average, I’d give it 3.5 stars for food, service, and atmosphere (I like small and compact pocket places like this). Side note: I’m from the west coast born and raised where 1/3 of the city population is korean and I go to SK for 1 month every year so I know how everything is supposed to taste.

Hidden gem of a Korean restaurant. The storefront is unsuspecting, but once you order and start eating, then know why the reviews for this place is excellent. Did not disappoint and will be going back. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes: Bibimbap in Bowl, Stone

The only place around Providence that offers traditional straight up Korean cuisine, none of the fusion stuff that seems to be prevalent in the area. Everyone is very kind and food arrives in a timely manner! Free sides include pickled cucumber, kimchi and beansprout banchan. Appetizers are a little pricey for the amount you get but the mains are tasty and very much worth it. Service: Dine in

This is our owner doctor 's favorite Korean restaurant in the Providence area, despite other fancier and more trendy and expensive ones downtown. Nice staff and great serving size. As another business in the area, we highly recommend this place!
