Pretty decent place for kbbq. I made a reservation here for a big party, but they couldn't sit us all together unfortunately. I enjoyed the variety of sides that they have, especially the corn cheese and steamed egg. We got option C which has a good amount of meat to choose from, and the quality was great. The service could be better since they took a while to give us our meat and change our grill, but our server was really nice. It was really loud and noisy since there was a lot of people. Overall, I would come back here when it's not as busy.

I came with a party of 16 and made reservation 2 days prior for a Sunday around 5:30pm. The service was really good and accommodating. Our group was initially going for the basic menu, but at the time there was a price increase we didn't know and ended up doing premium. We really enjoyed the beef belly and short rib. The menu pictured is from July 2023, my friend recently went and said it's back to $20 now.

First time coming to this place, I came with a friend on a Thursday night. Plenty of parking and no wait! At first I wasn't so sure whether the quality will be good since 20$ is such a great deal. We decided not to try the premium since I wanted to see what the basic menu is like for my first time. We ordered basically the entire half of the options such as beef/pork bulgolgi, beef/pork belly, brisket, and thinky sliced pork belly. The meat quality was very good to my surprise! They looked very fresh and came out as soon as we placed the order. Side dishes had a good selection, portions were bigger than ones from other places I've been! Service was very fast and they checked on us almost every ten minutes. Not sure if it's because it was a Thursday night but we were very impressed. I remember this spot was another kbbq years and years ago and was closed. It is now a very vibrant place, looks very new, and spacious. The plaza has a Korean marketplace so it was fun to explore the area before eating. Now that I've tried the basic menu, I'd like to come back and really experience the premium and have a better review!

I came back to eat here today after an unsatisfying visit the last time I came here, which was nearly a year ago. However, I am completely satisfied with my visit here today. First off, it surprised me to see that they lowered down their AYCE price. They went back down to 20 dollars per person for all day. Second, the lady who served us today was much nicer. Couldn't tell if she was the same lady from last time because her hair was tied back. However, it was good customer service and I appreciate her! Their options are still the same from before. The beef belly is the best to order. Definitely will be coming back now!

Great food and great service. They only let you order three items at once but i think it's a great system for people like me because I get full fast. The food is seasoned very well and the side dishes are really good. They accommodate for large parties and the interior really matches the fun kbbq vibes well.

Was craving Korean bbq so my friend and I decided to settle for this location since she only lived a block away! Food - typically when going to Korean bbq restaurants, there's always that one side dish or meat that you didn't like but everything here was delicious especially the Thinly Sliced Pork Belly. I don't remember ever trying it at other places but I found my new favorite besides Brisket! Service - TOP TIER. The service was amazing and it shows because all the workers here work together and treats every table as their table. We had to ask for many different things a few times and I never once had to raise my hand or look around. It was always perfect timing when the servers would come by. Ambiance - for a Friday night, there was no wait which was a huge plus since most places would have a long wait and we were hungry. They do also play good music!
