Eat there only if you want to be treated like dirt.
I am sick and tired of their way of treating their customers. They don't do reservations and their wait system is unforgiving and insane.
1. Long wait times like 1.5 hours
2. But with that long wait time, they only give you 10 minutes to "all be there" when they tell you table is ready.
3. That's not even the worst. They put a "wait time" estimate near their check in table. So you would think that is a solid...read full review

Thirsty Cow is a popular restaurant renowned for its exceptional Korean BBQ experience, offering a clean and welcoming atmosphere. The cozy interior features rustic elements and plays K-pop music in the background, creating a fun dining environment. The establishment is well-known for its high-quality meat cuts, particularly its Wagyu options, which are consistently delicious and tender. The menu includes a range of choices, with the $47 premium menu considered a great value compared to other AYCE Korean BBQ places. Most diners focus on the beef items, with recommendations for the marinated bulgolgi and the bone-in short rib. While the beef tongue might not be as tender for everyone, the overall quality is impressive.
Service is generally attentive, with waiters frequently checking in to see if diners want to order more or change the grill. However, there can be inconsistency, especially with refills of condiments like kimchi, onions, and turnip paper. A unique feature of Thirsty Cow is the complimentary Melona ice cream served after payment, available in strawberry or mango flavors. With big portions and a lively atmosphere, Thirsty Cow is an excellent choice for friends' gatherings, dates, or regular dining experiences. Visitors should be prepared for potential long wait times, especially during dinner, and find parking plentiful, although closer spots may fill up quickly. Reservations are not accepted, so arriving early or waiting in nearby areas is recommended.
