This meal was super good and the service outstanding. I had the bul go gi dish which was Korean style. I never had anything like that. It was so good, we almost went back for lunch. This is the menu description of my meal: Tender sirloin and rib-eye is first sliced thin and bathed in our delicious sesame-soy-garlic & onion marinade then finished in a scorching pan. My wife had Thai coconut curry with lemongrass which was also outstanding. I felt their chef that night was outstanding....
