We used to come here often and get the dinner buffet (more expensive). Their meat selection and quality used to be superb. Now, it's very disappointing. They had short ribs in the dinner buffet the last time we went (last year). Now, they removed it and did not even updated their online menu. Their beef bulgogi was once flavorful, now it tasted like it's watered down. By the way, it's the same price, but shitty selections. They added more side dishes and it's lesser meat. Will never come back here again.

After trying many Korean BBQ places in Calgary, this one is easily the best. Truly the best.

I have been here twice, and both experiences were excellent. The service was consistently attentive and friendly, the food was very fresh, and the restaurant itself was clean and well maintained.

One thing I really appreciate is that the beef is not overly marinated or drowned in heavy sauces. Since we work out regularly, this lighter preparation is much more suitable for us, and you can really taste the quality of the meat. The ventilation is also good, so the smoky smell is not overwhelming compared to many other BBQ places.

It honestly has all the strengths you would expect from a great Korean BBQ restaurant. During winter, the window seating can be a bit cold, but once we mentioned it to the staff, they immediately offered to move us and even cleaned an extra table for us. We truly appreciated the effort and kindness.

I would confidently recommend this place to anyone looking for high quality Korean BBQ in Calgary.

The menu for the BBQ and sushi buffet claims there's much more food than there actually is. The buffet room is small and crowded when busy and the sushi is often left out in the open, covers not closed. Saw a few large fruit flies. The tables are low and the chairs are uncomfortable and unstable but handy because you can put your stuff in them. Bonus I suppose. Way way way to expensive for what you get. Not a lot of variety other than meat and stuff that's been sitting out. Yuck!

The food is incredible, the variety and selection allows for everyone to find and enjoy their favorite items whether it be Sushi, meats, corn cheese, hot pot, ramen. The service is fantastic, I would only recommend getting larger tables to help accommodate everyone's experience.

For all you can see bbq and sushi is a disappointment. Sub par cooked food section. Most of the cooked food either been sit for a long time or is empty without refilling. Bbq Meat selection, Roman lettuce, cabbage salad often ran out without refilling. Plates hardly get clear out from the table. Only decent I can say is the sushi. Sorry only one time customer for me.

Visited this BBQ joint and, honestly, mixed feelings. Food was okay, nothing to write home about. But cleanliness? Big NO NO. Washroom was stinky, floors were super dirty didn't exactly scream 'safe dining experience. Customer service was ok tho. Atmosphere? Didn't vibe with me at all. Wouldn't recommend unless they sort up their cleanliness game. Definitely won't be back 🙅‍♀️. Very disappointed!!

Sizzling plate not at all sizzling, rice cold and day old, meat wasn’t seared as it would be if there was a sweet/spicy sauce and a sizzling hot pan as advertised.
Appetizer was never brought to the table.
It’s really too bad. I went here for a solo lunch to get a feel for it and to see if I could have a group BBQ meal over the holidays. I really wanted to like this place.

prices went up! so expensive. we wanted to eat here because we were craving but we got kicked out twice because apparently dine in closes 1hour before they close? they should've cancel our reservation or called us, it was almost half an hour drive from our house, such a waste of time and gas.

This place has gone downhill rapidly. There is much better Kbbq spots to go to. The buffet style is not great and not fresh. Very disappointing as i use to like this location.
