Dont bring your kids. This place is way too good to have ruined by spoiled brats. Spend a couple hours order drinks and tip big. These people put a lot of hard work into their service

Wow. DO NOT GO HERE!
I should’ve read the reviews before I went.
This place is not an authentic Korean restaurant. The food was all just garbage. The beef was so close to rotting, and you could tell all the seafood was frozen and not fresh. As for the side dishes, the kimchi had an awful taste, and even the tofu had an unpleasant rag smell from refrigerator. The grill was also so weak, that it took so long for the meats to cook.
I really don’t know how they are able to run the restaurant like this. I don’t think they understand the basics of anything. I spent $180 total for 4 people. We couldn’t even finish anything of what we ordered because it was all too gross to finish. The waitress also just sat there watching something on her phone. We failed to get her attention so my husband had to get up to her to ask for napkins, and she only gave him 2 sheets.
Please trust me that this place is not worth your money or time!!!

I would say it’s worth the money. $35/person all you can eat. You can cook the meat while eating sushi and other stuffs.

My husband and I had our first experience and I have never left a restaurant so unsatisfied and disappointed in my life mainly for the PRICE!!! it’s supposed to be an all you can eat buffet I could’ve gone to the Mandarin for the same price and enjoyed my meal much more so where I could actually SEE the food I’m eating and pick it out myself opposed to off a piece of paper just in writing not my ideal service for buffet / all you can eat style
It certainly isn’t what it is made out to be everything we ordered came to the table RAW vegetables and all the meat was dry and gross tasted like jerky i understand there’s a “grill too cook your own” that’s okay if the grill was half way decent will never go back

Clean, friendly, great service & high quality food. Will absolutely be back! A hidden gem in Barrie. Very welcoming for the whole family. Kimchi was amazing. We had the all you can eat BBQ & sushi/sashimi. They do use electric grills, so it does take a bit longer then gas. But Everything was amazing. The steamed shrimp dumplings were some of the best ever. Mango & vanilla ice cream too

Okay so I don’t usually do this to mom and pop shops but this had to be done. This restaurant only cares about making a profit, not your health. My wife and I ate here last night and we have been very sick since. I had to visit the doctors office today to be told that I am having dangerous side effects to heavy doses of msg. My system has issues dealing with msg but when it’s in heavy doses, like what this restaurant puts into all of their food, it can be very dangerous. They want you to eat less so that they can make a profit, so their food (mainly the batters, sauces and meat marinate) are heavily saturated with msg. The food quality was also very questionable to say the least. I would stead away from this restaurant if you value your health.

What an amazing little hole in the wall! Peaceful atmosphere, great service, clean grill and table area. Food was outstanding! We had beef, chicken, baby corn, mushrooms and onions that we cooked on the grill. The meat came pre marinated and it was delicious.
The sushi was amazingly fresh and delicious. Spring rolls were top notch as well. Not one bad thing to say about this place. We will for sure be returning!
