Staff are the best! Always on top of food orders and grill changes! Meat quality does not drop as they stay consistent. Bang for the buck 100%. Just make sure not to order too much bc then it starts to taste not so great đ but don't forget to get your ice cream at the end :)

Iâm honestly shocked by how we were treated. After sitting for about two hours, the girl who I assume is the manager, came to our table and threatened to charge us extra for âstaying too longâ without any prior warning. We had already paid and stopped ordering, yet there was still food on our table, which we were perfectly fine finishing.
The overall service was terrible, and her attitude was rude and unprofessional. After reading other negative reviews, it seems this same manager has caused problems for other customers. The restaurant needs to take responsibility and address her behavior. Itâs unbelievable that a restaurant would treat paying customers this way.

I come expecting Korean BBQ not party place. Vibe ghetto and uncomfortable. Music to loud from back like club not restaurant. Hard to enjoy food. Outside the employee cars playing loud music also. Before even walk in already feel bad. Homeless people around and area feel unsafe. As woman I dont feel comfortable here. Korean restaurant should feel warm and welcoming. This place is not I will not come back

I really enjoy going here, this is my go to Korean bbq spot for when Iâm in San Jose. The only thing about this place is that the seating is quite close together, so you may be bumping elbows with other people.

I've never had to leave a negative review before, but I feel obligated to share an incident from yesterday :
This used to be our go-to spot, but unfortunately we experienced some nasty and aggressive behavior from one of the Managers, Manny, who deliberately went out of her way to antagonize us. She slammed dishes really aggressively at us and physically bumped into us a few times without apologizing. There was a particular instance where she aggressively hit our tongs out of the way when changing the grill, and when I looked up at her in disbelief, she smiled in a mocking way.
Nobody deserves to be subjected to this type of behavior. I understand they are busy and may be under some stress, but this type of temperament does not belong in the front of house, period.
Will only be back as a last resort. There are so many great AYCE places that treat you with baseline respect.

My family has been a regular like years. I always join the waitlist on Yelp, but at the moment they open at 5pm, I tried to join but the waitlist was closed. At 5:33 pm I called to ask how long the current wait was, the lady staff said there is currently no wait. I said I will be there in 20 mins. When we got to the restaurant, she said the current wait is 2 hours while she was taking reservations on the phone. She couldve told us or added us on the waitlist the first place I called. We ended up leaving the restaurant. Unprofessional and lack of communication. Overall, the service was lacking. Slow, inattentive, and not very organized.

Took my co-workers here for his birthday, first time here. The waitress wasnât clear at explaining the menu to us. She sat us down on the small little round table for (4). Round table so small, hardly any space to put the Sapporo. Waitress doesnât tell us to scanned QR code menu to start. We just sat there for 10â minutes wondering why no menu. Then 45â into our bad experiences, something exploded at the counter. Smokes overwhelmed the air , everyone had to dashed for the door. Overall services can be much better( tell new customers to scanned QR CODE MENU to start). Cleared the sauce bottles on the table, for bid more space. Will not recommend anyone I know to come here. A lot better Korean barbecue restaurants, I have been.

Good food, decent service. Requested water at least 9 times and got none of it. Workers were nice though.
My new favorite KBBQ in the Bay Area. The meat quality and selection are exceptional. I wish it was warmer inside, I have to keep my jacket on while eating.

I visited this restaurant recently and had a pretty chilly experienceâliterally. The kitchen door was left open the entire time, and the cold wind just kept blowing inside, making it uncomfortably cold. On top of that, the service was quite slow. We had to ask three or four times just to get a pair of tongs for the meat, and they never actually brought them. Also, the beef strangely had a bit of a porky taste to it, which was kind of odd

Overall Very good, meats were ok better than Gen but -1 star because why was the front receptionist was answering the phone and talking for so long while there was a line of people waiting. I feel like customers there should be prioritized and the caller should be left on hold first.
Didnt really like this kind of grill because it was âstickyâ if you know what i mean didnt really give the best charr compare to other type of kbbq grill
Table was quite small but its ok not a big deal to me
Still had a good meal, would come back again bc its good for price compared to other kbbq
