This place used to be great… and now the servers are super stingy and weird about bringing side dishes. They give you an uncomfortable look for asking for any refills, and say that unless we order more or pay extra, they can’t bring side dishes. Being made to feel uncomfortable for asking for small side dishes while the bbq meat prices have increased exorbitantly is outrageous. The food is fine but nothing out of the ordinary. I stopped coming here because the servers make you feel like you’re a burden/inconvenience for dining with them.

Great spot! Love the bbq, the miso, and really haven’t been disappointed with anything we’ve ordered before.

The food here was genuinely fantastic — flavorful, fresh, and beautifully prepared. If this review were based on the kitchen alone, it would easily be five stars. Unfortunately, the service, specifically our waiter, made the night far more frustrating than it needed to be.

From the moment we sat down, it felt like we were an inconvenience. Our waiter was dismissive, barely made eye contact, and acted annoyed whenever we asked simple questions about the menu..

It’s disappointing because the place clearly has potential, but one person’s attitude can really drag down the whole experience.

Terrible service overall. The waitress was extremely rude to my family and me, which made the experience very unpleasant.

The sign says they close at 10pm. We walk in at 9pm and they tell us they are closed. Won't come here again

Packed at 6pm on a Sunday night, but I dined solo so I got the last seat available!

Service was a bit slow considering the full house but was still very friendly! I ordered:

Yukhoe: Was so good and reminded me of Yukhoe back in Korea! Great portion size too (and they have a smaller size available).

Chicken Teriyaki: A tad bit too sweet for my liking but the chicken was so juicy and paired perfectly with this rice.

Perfect for comfort food anytime, anywhere

Excellent food and drinks. Best toppoki ever. Scallion pancakes and barbecue were top notch.

There wasn’t a single Korean — it was full of foreigners, and everyone seemed to be truly enjoying the food! Definitely a place that satisfies all tastes. Though… the bill was a bit of a surprise. 😅
