Business Description from the Web
Li Hua, which means flower, puts a pretty face on this otherwise grungy corner of Grand Street. Two bay windows stretch the length of the wall, letting in lots of light; painted on frosted-glass walls around the rest of the room are crimson line drawings of petals and stems.

When I don't have time to go to mid-town to enjoy Korean food, this is where I go. I go to this restaurant pretty often and all my Korean and non-Korean friends enjoy eating here.

I am a native Korean and this is where to go when you miss authentic Korean food. I think the taste is the best in the city. They have this amazing infusion stove that cooks all their hot pot dishes that are excellent. The banchan could be improved but considering the price, you can't argue with that. The service is good and clean.
Pros
+ Inexpensive
Cons
- Parking
