We weren't allowed to cook ourselves for whatever reason the waitress insisted on taking over and we could not cook to our level of wellness. She constantly took the meat off the grill before it was done enough. For the price you pay you don't get quite what you would expect for meat variety. They don't explain anything to you. Meat was chewy and I do not believe we had waygu steak. Rice and shrimp was good. Nice ambiance but would not return.

Had a fantastic dinner here tonight. Everything was delicious, service was prompt and thorough. I would highly recommend this for a more elevated Korean BBQ experience!
Really enjoyed taking the family there. We love the wagyu AYCE. It’s one of the best value in the area for wagyu!

Food was amazing. Favourite was the spicy wagyu. Very kind waitress she showed much care and effort when it came to my onion allergy!!!! Even cooked it in a way that there wasn’t too much smell so I didn’t have any reaction!!! As well as changing out the metal things so that my food would never be contaminated with any of my allergens!! She was very kind and patient with our 1 yr old as well not once making a complaint or scene when it came to her tantrums and when she did act up never once made us feel embarrassed about it!!!!10/10 would definitely go again!!!Loved that they served halal options as well for my Muslim friends ♥️??
We loved the waygu menu option. The thin brisket and beef bulgogi were the best for us. The fried rice cakes were the best I have had in a while, so were the dumplings. The added sauces/ wine salt were some of the vest additions to our meals, the jalapeño being our favorite. The waitress was fantastic and kept our food rolling couldn't have had a better expirence!
Update:My first experience was great but felt compelled to leave a new review after our last meal. Downgrading them down to 3 stars because we felt they purposely slowed down the amount of meat we were getting. Our server was great but we often were waiting almost 20 minutes in between each refill. Manager ordered us to stop ordering meat before our party got full. They gave us 120 minutes but we spent more than half of it waiting. They also forced a mandatory 22% tip for 6 people which is more than similar places. Won't be back.5 years ago: Very nice restaurant which offers both traditional Korean meals and a wide range of steaks. Prices were pretty reasonable as we were expecting it to be more. Staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is very nice. I plan to go back more to try more. :)

Delicious, and great service! We bought desert from the attached bakery to go, and though we've yet to try it all, everything we've eaten so far has been delicious as well!

반찬이 아마 최고였을 거예요The green beans were 맛있는Sorry this is going to be a lot because I’m half Korean and I was a little disappointed.I’m from GA so KBBQ is pretty popular and has great flavors. We have Korean town and Korean is the most spoken language besides English and Spanish. I have had tried over 50 Korean bbq and planning to go more around the world to try. I’m visiting in Murfreesboro right now and was craving for some 냉면 (cold noodles)I have a favorite back home but of course I know every restaurant is different. My husband and I were very hungry too so we wanted Korean.My husband and I came here wanting to try it since we’ve been hearing that there’s a new restaurant. It was so hard to try not to judge too much due to the fact we love the flavors from KBBQ in GA. Especially since this is the only KBBQ in the area near us. Might as well, you know? Their Banchan was good. It was simple and not to much sides. I liked the green beans, fish cake, radish, and their cucumber kimchi. The cabbage kimchi was a little on the sweet side and kind of bland. Didn’t have that fermented sourness to it. But it was still good. We had meat from the a la carte. My husband and I enjoyed the brisket and it was delicious. We love pork and wanted their spicy pork. I didn’t know it was like a bulgogi. Kind of wish they did spicy pork belly. Kind of disappointed on that the most. It was sour and over marinated. Idk if it was the salt or fish sauce, for marinated meat you have to balance the salt with the gochujang and gocharu; add sugar probably?? We also had the korean chicken soup, since my husband and I were feeling somewhat under the weather because it’s warm and raining then cold and sunny ?, it was very delicious and comforting. Their cold noodles though…. I’m also disappointed in that. For spicy cold noodles it’s like a bibibap but the noodles are soo dry you need some of the broth to be able to mix the noodles and the sauce. It was overly sweet and not spicy. It had a lot of sesame oil too which made it taste weirder than adding the right amount to someone’s taste. It didn’t have that umami kick of deliciousness. It was too sweet. ?I’m trying not to make this into a bad review because the food was good at first. There are some dishes we probably will not reorder but my husband may not be able to come back. He said the after taste is still sitting in his mouth no matter how much water or juice. He said it was not a nice after taste.Our service was ok. They were nice but it took a while to get what we asked. I think my husband waited 10 minutes for a refill of water but we saw our server sing happy birthday after the 10 minutes. So it was an ok service. I also had to cook the meat myself as soon as the meat was sent to our table. I kind of looked confused if this was a KBBQ restaurant that has their customers cook their own meat. Every restaurant is different just confused me because I guess we’re not used to it from K-Town in GA. But It wasnt busy till we started to leave so service was confusing as well.I also brought a toddler and used a highchair to prevent them from touching the grill in the middle but the knob to turn on the grill was right in the middle outside of the booth and my child kept touching and playing with it. Maybe not safe have your child on the outside of the booth.Overall we liked our first experience, maybe we will be back, but we did enjoy the time and food for the moment. I hope some of you guys who read my review don’t get hesitant towards the food here. This is just my opinion due to have been eating a lot KBBQ over the years and experience. My taste buds is different but honestly speaking this is a good restaurant just not as good as the restaurants I’ve tried over the years and places I’ve been. It could be better but of course it’s just my opinion. Still come and enjoy the KBBQ experience.

The food was amazing, the place was neat. But the worse part? The service AND the fact that I got food poisoning the next day. I've been here twice, the second time was just to make sure I wasn't just sick. But it was definitely the food, because I woke up with food poisoning the next day. The service was horrible both times. There were absolutely no servers, and after 10 minutes of waiting when we finally got one, she didn't even bring us half of what we ordered.

I have a few things to share that are highlighted....The macaroons you can buy at the front cake/sweets shop are amazing. They are beautiful and delicious. Super fluffy!The service is amazing! Our server was so great. Helped with selections. Brought us smaller portions of things so that we could try more. Helped with the cooking. Brought all the sides. Just was excellent.We tried the higher all you can eat and tried so many sides....salad, Kim chi, cheese corn, fried dumplings. KFC, Kim chi fried rice, rice cakes....all were excellent. We also tried the pork belly, the spicy shrimp, the waygu short ribs and brisket. All the meats were excellent.This was one of my favorite Korean BBQ places! We also did not leave smelling like a BBQ. Their ventilation was great!
Very good restaurant. This is probably one of the best restaurants in town. This replaced a lousy mexican restaurant. This restaurant is also near the movie theather.
