Honest review: The meat (we got the 4 person set), kimchi seafood pancake, and soybean soup were great (4/5). However, it’s overpriced for the quantity. Cocktails weren’t great, very watered down. Service was not the best compared to ones I’ve had at Korean restaurants. And there isn’t much ventilation in the back so your clothes will smell like kbbq. If you go to check it out, sit at the front of the restaurant. Super smoky in the back. Overall 3.5/5.

I'll start off with the good: The meats were high quality and cooked well. The thinner cuts were tender and tasted great, and the service was good in terms of attentiveness and how much work they put in to make sure each dish is made at your table in a timely manner while also serving others.
However, I'm not really sure how this is Korean BBQ to be perfectly honest. It's really more of a hibachi experience, as each table has an induction burner and a cast iron skillet that food is cooked on. There's nothing barbecue about it, and that was very disappointing. Also, the skillets are heated on high with cooking oil and there are no vents to handle the smoke, so it was blowing right into my face for the entire meal which was very unpleasant. The entire restaurant was very smoky inside.
Lastly, the menu was not very descriptive and we went for the "feast for 4" thinking we would get a nice mix of things but all we got was beef and some very small sides of kimchi, green onions, pickles and hot sauces. I was expecting more of a variety of things and we all left feeling hungry after spending over $400. I wish it was served with some rice or noodles or something more substantial but that might be our fault for not realizing this. Regardless, this felt very expensive for what we got.
Maybe we were all just not used to eating fattier cuts of meat but all 4 of us felt very sick the next day. I don't think there was anything wrong with the food, it's just very heavy and fatty so be aware of that and order some additional sides!!

It is a premium kbbq. I like the presentation and the service. The taste is also good, the quality of meat is on point! . The side dishes also very good. A little too pricey for me for the quantity of the food.

Be aware that there is no ventilation system at this restaurant, which is a must for the table top bbq due to smoke. Food was decent, but all the smoke made my eyes sting and my clothes still smell like kbbq. Servers were nice, but were understaffed. Wine price is decent. Highly recommend the fried rice.

If you don’t give 15% tip, Korean server will come out and ask you for more even though the food is just okay?

Got seated 30mins past our resy. Had to remind the staff three times about our cocktails - we got them 45mins later halfway through our "large feast" meal. I understand they were understaffed but no apologies- nothing. Still got charged.
Our main server was nice. Another server came to cook the meats and blasted the grill heat. Splattered near my eye and didn't apologize. Seems like a pattern. Anyways, the food was good but there are better options out there for the price. I've heard good things about it here but I'll give it some time before returning.. not the best experience.

We are 2 people and order combo for 2，come with 2 different beef and pork belly, Both beef was delicious, but the pork belly was a little overcooked. Next time i will only order beef, not combo.

We were excited to try this restaurant, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to expectations. Despite wearing a sweater, the AC made it uncomfortably cold inside. The food was a mixed bag — while the oysters were fresh and the BBQ meat was of excellent quality, it came at a steep price. The seafood pancake had a slight sour note, which was unexpected. Service was another downside. The restaurant was packed, and with only a few staff on duty, it felt like they were too busy to properly manage orders or deliver food in a timely manner. Sadly, this experience didn’t leave us eager to return.
I entered the store as a delivery person, the woman working there understood this and avoided even saying hello and did not even look at me. I have never seen such disgrace. Shame on that woman who discriminates between professions.

Had a party of 11 people, 80 per person is a bit pricey for a kbbq. The meat quality was good but wasn’t worth $80 to be honest. The seafood pancake was amazing. Oysters tasted fresh and the kimchi fried rice after bbq was too soggy. Wish they had steamed egg as an option at least. Free white rice was pretty surprising though, most places charge extra for rice. Customer service and waiters were amazing. Restaurant couldn’t play happy birthday song though and doesn’t admire the fact it’s a birthday dinner which is a bit sad but overall not bad but not worth how pricey it is.
