Helllllllo Owner! Are you out there? If so, I kindly ask that you take my advice.
Flavors are not there. I’m not by any means an expert - but, being that my family originates from North Korea, and I partake in Korean cooking regularly, I hope you’ll hear me out.
Invest in your people. Teach them what Korean seasoning and flavors are supposed to be. If you wouldn’t serve the food in your own restaurant to your family members, then it’s not what should be served in your restaurant. You’re not far off the track! The seasoning on the bulgogi beef, and the cucumber banchan were the closest I tasted to authentic this evening.
I can see your people are good workers - they want to do the right thing, but you need to show them! Spend time, teach them real authentic Korean flavors, and I believe they will deliver. And, your customers will respond. I’d gladly revisit in the future, but please focus on your flavors and quality if you wish to have repeat clientele.
Best of luck to you.

Food was ok. The meat was sticking to the grill and didn't come out good.

Love the food not so much the service. The server wasn't friendly or inviting. Kept putting everything in front of my 1.5 year old. Including the boiling hot soup bowl. Seemed like she was too bothered to walk around the table and serve the other end of our group.

As a Korean, I don’t endorse this business as a Korean restaurant. The flavors and quality of the dishes don’t match what’s considered authentic at all.

The food was good, however I had ordered the garlic edamame as an appetizer and after 3, I realized they were overcooked and chewy, I asked our waitress if I could send them back and was told “No, since you already ate them, they aren’t going to refund you”. Not even an offer to replace them with something.

I’ve been to numerous Korean bbq spots $148 for two people when in Salem Oregon you get choices on meats even in groups a waitress came maybe twice and I don’t care about cost but if Salem or has a spot you spend $40 per person and get to choose 10-20 different meats each time yet this place you get one choice and then no other meats or anything so $148 plus a tip for two people I’m sorry this place is not good kimchi was nasty sprouts poor soup cold and no one there disappointed and never will go back don’t care about any negative comments bc this is my opinion coming from eating Korean bbq this is not it!!!
For the money the food is a bit expensive. $33 for not much meat, asked for extra sides and to charge me more and server didn’t do either.

Food is super flavorful and fun. This to me is an actively with food I think the tables with the built in fire pit is so cool. My parents and kids love cooking their meat on the little grill and the tables are super spacious so it's comfortable to sit and chat and enjoy a drink too. For 2 or more people on the BBQ expect a bill of around $120+. Regular menu items $20ish per plate.
