$26 for 3oz of thinly sliced beef bulgogi. This place has changed used to get a good amount of beef. Now they have too many employees and have cut back on food quantity and increase prices to pay everyone.

I came to this place with my girlfriend for Valentine’s Day and the food was just okay, do not expect any spectacular taste. Prices are just a little bit high for how big the portions are. However, the ramen is by far the worst thing in the menu, because is LITERALLY instant soup as you can see on the picture but they charge you 11 dollars which is insane. However, service is very friendly and they treat you well, but the ramen is directly scam.

Order Beef bulgogi dol-pan. Highly not recommended. First time ever seen that this dish using ground beef instead of real beef. The rice was burned out because of the pot was too hot when serving. The dish has no taste. There’s no marinated beef as bulgogi tastes. Really poor taste

If you’ve been to the “previous” Koreatown this spot might not be your favorite anymore. The food lacks a bit in flavor and the portions have shrunk. We tried both KBBQ and Dine in, overall decent food & great service!

I do NOT recommend! I used to love this restaurant, but ever since the new ownership, the quality has really gone downhill. The food doesn’t taste the same anymore—it’s bland and lacking the authentic flavors that made it special. On top of that, the portion sizes have noticeably gotten smaller, which makes it feel like you’re not getting your money’s worth. Really disappointing to see such a decline. I won’t be coming back anytime soon.

I've been going here for years. New management as of November, and the food is a shadow of its former quality. I am so disappointed.

Different owner and different menu. They shouldn’t keep the old reviews. Food was bad and price was really high. Very disappointing. Two dishes were 40 dollars. It’s a scam.
Huishan Lin
Two dishes cost 50...it seems a bit too expensive! Sorry I didn’t take a photo, the portion wasn’t huge...a bit disappointing

DIFFERENT OWNERS. DIFFERENT MENU AS OF NOVEMBER 5th. Less food, 1/10th of the menu size, there was no one there. The food offerings were the same as every other mediocre Korean restaurant.
The old owners had awesome portion sizes, and a bunch of variety of food. Not these guys. Just expect the same old food as you can get at any other half-baked Korean restaurant. Old restaurant owners had salmon, jap chae, BIG seafood pancake, etc. where did they go???
Whole restaurant was basically empty, we asked to sit at the next table over because we didn’t want to be right next to the only table doing the BBQ and get smokey, and they were sooooo awkward about it.
New owner, new menu. Not at all fair to keep the same name and the same reviews. The new menu is extremely limited.

Really good service here. They have such a small menu. They're trying to get complimentary barley tea. But they don't have that yet or seafood pancake. Which is my favorite Korean appetizer. It's a new place. So, I can't judge it too harshly. But the food was just ok.

The service and atmosphere and banchan were good, but the meal was disappointing last night. Maybe the cook had a bad night because all three dishes my friend and I ordered were subpar.
From the first spoonful of the silken tofu soup I put in my mouth, my tongue met cold tofu. The server kindly took the soup back to the kitchen to be heated longer, but then the bubbling hot soup she brought back from the kitchen a few minutes later was no longer distinguishable as tofu soup because the tofu had been mashed down into nothing.
The kimchi pancake was not fried crispy on the outside, was mushy and thick, and fell apart when picking up with chopsticks.
The tteokbokki was too sweet and watery. The fishcake added to it had the taste of freezer burn.
With this disappointing dining experience and the availability of several other Korean restaurant options in the area, I will not be returning to Koreatown. I think I will try Jin BBQ down the street.

Galbi short rib beef was amazing, going back again just for that dish!! Large portions so best to have with many people. We also got their fried chicken which was good but would try something else next time we’re there. Service was A+ and will def be back!

The food was fantastic. Good service. But it was too hot inside the restaurant. More AC please.
