Great place to dine with family, friends, and acquaintances. The booths are large and comfortable. The service is quick and attentive. The food options are enough to satisfy picky/restrictive eaters, and it is fresh and tasty. For larger groups, it is more economical to pay ale carte than all you can eat, especially if you have kids/folks that eat like birds.

Food was very good
It was very busy so the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed
Would definitely recommend checking this place out

The food here is always so delicious! My favorite is the spicy pork bulgogi. Our waiter, Daniel, gave us great service! He was super friendly, quick, and very attentive. Definitely recommend this place! 10/10 :)

Overall it's probably the best in Utah so what are ya gonna do.....not much competition. However, the last experience was a tick down compared to typical experience here. Dunno why, but this last time I went they were a bit slow to bring us the next plates we ordered, and not particularly engaging service 🤷♂️. It is what it is..... For what it's worth, It's also usually a bit too loud for me. I mean I like some music, but hardly can have a conversation across the table.

One of the best Korean spots I’ve been to—seriously.
Korean BBQ is always the star of the show, and theirs was FANTASTIC —but what really impressed me was that the banchan and other sides weren’t just filler. The japchae, soups, crispy Korean fried chicken and more were delicious.
The service was friendly and welcoming, place was spotless, and the prices phenomenal. Bonus points for outdoor seating (pet-friendly!), TVs inside, and free Wi-Fi.
Highly recommend—go check it out!

Oh my gosh. This is the first time me and my dad have had KBBQ and I nod have a new favorite resturaunt because this id genuinely AMAZING. First off, they give you this absolutley BANGER soy sauce that is apparently a special recipie from the restaurant (im a bit sad that I wont be able to get some from a store but tbh that just means there's even more effort there) and they give you that soy sauce with chili flakes as well, and some sugar or salt (i didnt end up trying it, it skipped my mind, but im sure it was rlly good) for me and my dad, 2 people, it was about 90 dollars with tip and tax on the all you can eat buffet thingy- now that sounds bad, but actually, for what youre getting, its amazing. Their meats are super high quality, and the grill at our table was completely clean, which is actually a bit surprising because they have got to be very difficult to keep clean, from me own experience with cooking meat on ports and pans. They also gave us some very goods rice, it was the perfectly sticky kind and it went wonderfully with the meats. If I had to choose the best thing we had there, id say it was either the sliced beef, or the spicy beef bolgogi (im bad at spelling sorry if I butchered that) although in my mind the spicy one wasn't super duper spicy, It was still very enjoyable and did fulfill my need for spice that day. They had us use chopsticks, and I have alot of experience with them, so it was fine, but I will say that if you dont have much chopsticks skills, that you should look up how to use them, and basic etiquette just to be safe. I also like that the place in general wasn't too loud. Ive been to many restaurants that blast crappy Kanye west and stuff all over their speakers for 'atmostphere' but this place wasn't like that. Their music wasn't neccisarily my taste, but it was definitely better than alot of places, plus, they didnt make it too loud. And this isnt even really a thing with the actual restaurant, but I will say that we got there before the lunch rush, and it was very nice and quiet, which is really good because people in my family get very overstimulated easily. The atmosphere was really good, and the staff there were great, and the guy at our table explained what the sauces were to me, and also explained at the start how to actually do the actual cooking and eating and such when we asked what the actual deal of the place was. I will also say that visually, it was a very pretty restaurant. In general, if I wasn't super broke, I would be going here every week. Wonderful place.

It was ok. Place and people were great but the food options aren’t all that great. The Ombu (also Korean bbq) fives you more options of food. It was still good.

the food and staff is always great, but the real reason for this review is the song choice. hsm2 soundtrack was on.

I’ve tried all the Korean BBQ’s in the area and this is mine and my husband’s favorite. We go a few times a month. The food is excellent, the side dishes are our favorites, the sauces are so good. My pick eaters kids even love this place.
