It was by far the worst experience we’ve had here in Hawaii! The waitress was rude and the food was of low quality but expensive. I will never go back to this restaurant! We ordered kalbi and we got some irregularly cut pieces of meat that looked strange. I’ve never seen kalbi meat brought out like that at a barbecue restaurant.

The skirt steak here is amazing. This is a low frills, kbbq ran by some Korean aunties. Food is amazing. Service is friendly, but sometimes they get busy, so it won't always be perfect. My fav KBBQ on the island.

The food is average for a Korean restaurant, so you can choose according to your preference, but the waitress service is extremely disgusting.
The server working during lunch time had a very irritable attitude and an irritating tone when dealing with customers, which was quite unpleasant.

This is my GO TO Korean BBQ spot on Oahu.This back alley, cinder block laden restaurant is a no frills spot that serves up some of the best meat selections. Ambiance is rustic, in a Hawaiian sense, and very casual. It can get smoky inside if the place is packed so be prepared to smell like meat and BBQ when you leave.We ordered the Jumolook and pork belly and both were great quality. I love that they provide the sesame oil dipping sauce without mention. All of the sides were very good too and of generous portions.Service is authentic and quick! Don’t expect much unless you’re proficient in Korean, but they’re a lovely staff.

The food was all right but nothing special. Prices are very high for what you get and definitely not worth it. The worst service I have experienced in a long time. Generally rude waitress. Rushed order. Poor service throughout meal. Extended wait for check. Overall poor experience. Would not go back.

The amount of meat was amazing, but the skirt steak was meaty and the ribs were completely different from Japanese ribs, so it was just normal meat.
Furthermore, I had to order meat that cost 40$ per person, and I couldn't finish it!! ️
It was a terrible store.
There are a lot of reviews that praise the meat here as being the best, but I think it's just a lie.
Then, at the checkout, you will receive a 15% tip on your bill.
It is better for Japanese people not to go ❤
I will never go there again!

I have been going to this store for about 10 years. I don't know if it was due to COVID-19, but the management has changed. I was a little confused, but it turned out a little better. Maybe the manager is a relative? I was also able to see the face of the mom who ran the previous business. The meat we use is very fresh, so it has a different taste than aged meat. I think it's a good place to go with family and friends. The price may seem high to Japanese people, but it's worth stopping by. I hope this is helpful.

It's been a long time since the owner changed, and they're doing business as if they've been doing it before. Haha. Taste? service? I can't manage anything. Please be careful. It will tarnish your previous reputation...
The other remaining reviews are all from previous restaurants, so if you read them, you'll probably regret it a lot.
It would be better to reject the house next door.
My companion's stove was not working properly and I heard a sound like oil splattering, which was scary.
Parking: There isn't much parking available, but there are plenty of street parking spots around.
