Definitely a great spot to kick back, enjoy a delicious meal, and spend some quality time with friends!
Tasty all-you-can-eat Korean barbecue at The Fire Spot on Convoy Street! So fun, and so tasty. We got the original plan which was $38 per person. We enjoyed the house choice steak, marinated short rib, marinated lamb, miso pork belly, garlic finger meat, and button mushroom. They have Sapporo and other beverages available. Friendly and attentive staff. Recommend!
