Pretty authentic for a KBBQ place, hard to find in the Tampa Bay Area. Dolsot bibimbap is great and I always get pork belly bbq (over AYCE). Can’t go wrong with pork belly!

This place used to be my fav whenever I came back to visit Carrollwood village. I never had a problem with sharing about the place with my friends. Today I visit it again and everything went down grade. From food and services. Now they charge extra for the food and the whole service experience was bad today.

Very overpriced and very limited menu. On top of the menu being limited and overpriced, there are still items that they want you to pay for each plate. I came from HI, the most expensive state in the US and we were paying 27.95 for two full pages of food selections and nothing was an additional price except drinks. Also, you would never be able to get a table on a Saturday evening however it is 7pm and the place is empty. Wonder why?.Many more similar restaurants in area at a more affordable price. Disappointing.

3 things about this place: 1. I've been looking for an amazing Korean spot in Tampa and haven't found one yet. The other Korean restaurants are good but not great. I have decided to try this place for a while and had the time to do it. From outside, the place does not seem big, but when you go inside the restaurant, it is more spacious than you'd expect. The staff were extremely friendly and greet you with a warm smile which was a plus for me. I was seated right away and was delivered with a cup of water. The price is extremely fair and the portions of the foods were fair. They are closed during the day to serve the most fresh foods for that night and cut their meats almost every day also. 2. Deep Fried Dumplings, Korean Fried Chicken with a side of sweet and spicy sauce, and Beef Tripe Soup were ordered. All the orders came out fast and didn't have to wait that long. The dumplings came out extremely hot and was very crispy. The sauce was well prepared to go with the dumplings. I was really amazed at the Korean Fried Chicken with the sweet and spicy sauce. The chicken was well marinated and just eating it without any sauce was good too. The sweet and spicy sauce is very hard to make and this place made it to perfection and not heavy with the gochujang (Korean pepper paste) compared to other Korean restaurants. Beef Tripe Soup was HUGE. The flavor was perfect and the vegetables and the tripe were very fresh. If you don't clean the tripe well, there will be some odd smell but didn't smell any of that from the tripe. They cleaned it very well and I can see the passion for what they serve to customers. 3. Second time I came and had the AYCE Korean BBQ and the meats were all fresh also. For that price, you can't really beat that. Comes with appetizers like fried chicken, steamed egg, and a MUST to get is their Korean soy bean paste soup. It's an additional cost but definitely worth it. Overall, highly recommend this place to anyone wanting Korean food. I've been to different Korean places in Tampa area and nothing beats this place. Will be back to try different items on their menu and found my Korean favorite spot in Tampa!

Always incredible and open late enough for last-minute dinner.
I can eat Bulgogi and Kimchi endless here if I could, nice place for a date, has good food, and good atmosphere. Self grill or full service. Something was done right here...Parking: Sometimes difficult to find parking, especially accessible ones.Wheelchair accessibility: Very spacious. Per usual, booths not too wheelchair accessible, but there are tables too.

K-chicken is honestly one of my favorite Korean restaurants! I love their unlimited side dishes and the food is always consistently delicious.P.s. try their Korean fried chicken, you won’t be disappointed!
Come here hungry ?. First time here, came for lunch. Start by only ordering 3 to 4 proteins (2 of us). We got the thick pork belly, spicy beef bulgogi, chicken bulgogi and the ribeye steak. The condiments of pickled veggies come with the meal and got side orders of shrimp shumei and KFC wings. Lastly we ordered cheesy corn. As much as we wanted to keep eating we were absolutely stuffed. Everything was delicious and fresh. The pickled dacon, Kim chi and fried tofu skin were so addictive. They end the meal by giving you a probiotic yogurt shot. Can't wait to come back!

The only AYCE (all you can eat) Korean barbecue restaurant in Tampa Bay. Other places have “combo options” with limits; this place does too, but their AYCE is unbeatable. Amazing quality meats, super extensive options of sides that come with it, very clean environment, I can’t believe how this is possible! Joy, Bekk, and Daniel are the best servers; they’ve been here since the beginning & have outlived every other server. Veterans that make this place go. Their entrees are amazing too for something lighter.This place needs more business to keep thriving! (Overheard the owner about the hardships to keep this place open…) the quality is unbeatable in Tampa bay! My favorite place!

Amazing!!Craving some good fried chicken, we decided to try this restaurant and are very happy with our decision!We walked in to smiling faces and fun K-pop music. We were seated immediately and after the staff patiently walked us through the menu, we settled on a couple dishes and some hot green tea.We were served some complimentary banchan which we thoroughly enjoyed, while sipping on hot green tea. Our favorites are the cucumber kimchi and the pickled daikon radish.Shout out to Bekk for the wonderful and kind service. He suggested a great combination for our meal and I am already looking forward to the suggestions made by him for our next visit to the restaurant! Thank you Bekk!!The rest of the food followed soon. The chicken looked delicious as it made to our table and the crispiness was spot on, while the chicken was tender and juicy inside! We thoroughly enjoyed the scrumptious chicken and the fries. We dared to get the crazy hot sauce and it blew our mind. Bekk had however prepared us, so we started slow and enjoyed the mind numbing heat level of the sauce!The Bulgogi fried rice was also so enjoyable!!! It made a great balance to the heat from the crazy hot chicken!Both the chicken and fried rice were generous portions.We were the last ones to leave the restaurant but Bekk did not rush us out the door. He continued to give us great suggestions for the next time we're at the restaurant and we just cannot wait!
