“ Excellent panchan and great taste of all foods. I'm happy they open all day . Great service and easy parking . Highly recommended ”
“ Went here on Tuesday for a pre Christmas celebration and there was no one in the restaurant so I was kinda skeptical, but my sister and brother-in-law kept reassuring me it was delicious. Service was great because we were the only ones there. We ordered AYCE and I usually don't like going to restaurants to cook my own food, but IT WAS DELICIOUS. The sides were yummy (which is my favorite part) and the short ribs were amazing. It was better than Gen, which I personally think is overrated. Will definitely be back! ”
“ Great service. Kind server. Tons of meat. AND so yummy! Forget the new and hyped up places that are too busy for your attention and service. I got served many times over in less than 10-20 mins than 2 hours at other KBBQs. Hope they get more customers. Yakult for dessert too. ”
“ Had dinner here with my wife on a Thursday night. We were worried because the place was almost empty of customers. It's a pleasant and spacious dining room, with many booths equipped with in-table grills. The air conditioning was set pretty cold, which was a bit uncomfortable for a cold winter night. We ordered a combo meal, which came with three kinds of beef and a soup/stew. The meat was delicious, the banchan selection was very good, and we felt we got our money's worth. However, they did forget to bring the stew. We were already feeling well-fed, so we didn't make a fuss over it, but next time we will make sure to insist on getting our complete order. ”
“ When I was told we were going to eat here, I was a little hesitant because of the other reviews... so happy we have this place a chance! We ate here for dinner, 5:30 on a Sunday night. As soon as we entered, we were greeted and seated. Within five minutes of being seated, our order was taken and our drinks were served. We decided to go with (I think it was called) combo b $65 where we cooked our own meat - serves 2 to 3 people, marinated ribeye, pork-belly and another cut of beef. They were out of cow tongue so they offered to give us another serving of marinated ribeye. With that, we were each given rice and soup to share. Since jap chae was not part of the banchan, we ordered it as a side. I recommend it because it was really delicious! We were given 8 different types of banchans... from the time we sat down and we received our food, it was probably a total of 10 minutes? I was surprised at how fast we got our food and drinks, especially because of what the others said in their reviews. The food was delicious and the service was really good. They checked on us occasionally, refilled some of our banchans and even gave us a pitcher of iced water to refill our glasses. I do recommend not wearing your favorite outfit, not unless you enjoy smelling like smoke and Korean BBQ LOL. We'll definitely be back! ”
