For a side dish they bring out house-made pickles, and they're so crisp and full of savory flavor that I went back to the self-serve bar for more.

[Classic Combo Set (1 pizza + 1 pasta), ₩42,000] The combo lets you pick one pizza and one pasta, no extra charge whichever you choose — I went with the half-and-half pizza so I could try both flavors.

That's the birria taco pizza and the potato pizza. It's topped generously with Mexican birria meat cooked low and slow, giving a rich, deep flavor that fills your mouth.

You could park on the street in front, but since enforcement can show up anytime, I'd recommend using a nearby paid parking lot if you're driving, just to be safe. There's no parking fee support provided, so keep that in mind before you visit.
