My friend and I walked in here hoping to get Thai food about 2 hours before closing. The host informed us that they have KBBQ for $30 a person and we thought it was a great deal and ended up going with the KBBQ menu instead.
We weren't expecting the KBBQ to also include K-Pot, which really sealed the deal for us. The food was actually also phenomenal. All the meats were marinated. They offered free sides + refills of the fries, drunken noodles and fried rice, as well as the kimchi. It was a really great portion for an even better price. The K-Pot was one of the best I've had.
We learned that the chef actually lived in Korea for about a decade and hence why the entire vibe felt so authentic. I really enjoyed the food and the service was also really great. Despite us walking in 2 hours before closing, there was no rush to kick us out. In fact, they kept asking if we wanted more refills.
We will definitely be returning here.

The food is pretty decent, however, the place is filthy, especially the restroom. The kitchen looks very dirty and the folks that serve never wears a glove or never change it. The same glove is used to clean the tables, floors, and serve the food. I hate giving such a negative review but the truth must be told. Thanks.

I didn't expect they would use can warmer gel to cook your food. I was actually disappointed when I saw that. Service was good, food not good. Wasn't worth the $$ and hype you see on TikTok or IG.

Very bad experience. The heating system was not working even though the outside temperature was -6°C, making it extremely uncomfortable. The food was horrible, and although the restaurant was busy, there were only two staff members working, resulting in very poor service. The staff did not attend to us properly. On top of that, the entire restaurant was filled with smoke from the kitchen, which was unacceptable. This was supposed to be a family get-together, but the experience was completely ruined.

We visited this restaurant for a family get-together, and unfortunately it was a very disappointing experience. The heat was not working at all, even though the temperature outside was around 17°F. No alternative heating was provided, which made it extremely uncomfortable for everyone. On top of that, the food quality was much worse than what we’ve had here before. When we raised our concerns, there was no apology from the staff, and they did not offer any discount or complimentary item to make up for the situation. Overall, this place is not suitable for large gatherings. Very poor experience.

This place is problematic from top to bottom and I'll tell you why. Such a shame!
As soon as you walk in, you'll immediately get hit with an awful smell in a space that is so conjusted that you'll bump into other diners. If you still want to give it a try since you're just curious to see what they have in store for a $10 AYCE, don't walk but run away from here.
A heads up, they charge you for water without even informing you beforehand. I'm not aware which dine-in restaurants charge their diners for water? Not even in Manhattan and they're up with this crap here in Astoria? We ate halfway through and the staff never checked in, nor did he ask if we wanted to drink anything. When we requested for some water, he gave us a small packaged water bottle (we were three adults) and handed us a menu for drinks. After we were done eating and handed the check, we saw that the water was $2. What kind of deception is this? Why was it so difficult to inform us earlier that they charge for water?
The Thai AYCE is such a fail. Just a reminder, this is not even an inch close to authentic Thai. The Fried Rice isn't cooked properly, it's dry, hard and chewy. Other dishes lack spices, seasoning and flavor. All of the dishes are also cold! And who mixes chicken and beef together to make a 'Thai Sizzler' or whatever? It seemed a joke. Labeling isn't done properly. There was a veggie label, we opened it to find fried rice. One label said Chili Chicken/Fish, we opened it and found no fish. That Chili Chicken was dry as hell and dunked in sauce. The overall taste is below average. Probably the only good thing was the Egg Chowmein.
This place is poorly understaffed. Only one person who's the host, they're also the waitstaff, and they're also the person to pack to-go orders. I felt sorry for him.

The service was really bad. Asked $17 for service charge for them to do nothing at all. We served ourselves, we cooked ourselves, and we got the utensils ourselves as well. The place was FREEZING. We asked to turn the heat up but NOTHING. it was so cold that we didn’t want to eat and wanted to get out asap. The only thing he did was give water. NEVER COMING BACK! NOT WORTH THE PROCE EITHER!

Ordered delivery via GrubHub. The lunch specials were a good deal and come very neatly packed in a divided box. I loved the Pad See Ew (drunken noodles). The chicken lollipops were nice and crunchy and popped right off the bone.
Got the Korean BBQ. Food was absolutely great. Overall had a really great time.

Food was okay, its bengali-asian fusion. Serving sizes are big but beef/chicken is less.

Their quality of food and service has gone down SO MUCH recently. this place used to be so great and now its terrible. they obviously made their portions smaller, their steaks are so bad and they forgot to give me my order, and when I asked about it 20 minutes later, they said they forgot about it. The owner has like 1 guy working the whole store, another girl came later and its a mess. There were uber eats drivers waiting so long for their pickups in the front. The owner needs to do something to fix his store ASAP.

Great healthy food! The reviews don’t match at all. The people probably order off of uber eats
