“Took my son here for his birthday! 🎂 Loved the food! My only issue was the shrimp. Had to peel and take off the heads.😳 Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. This is his favorite restaurant!”
“Delicious!! And you can’t beat the price of only $32 for AYCE dinner. The service was quick and our server was very helpful since it was our first time. The bulgogi, both regular and Hawaiian, were the best meats we tried! We also had the spicy pork steak, pork belly, soy marinated steak, shrimp, and spicy chicken. The pork belly we overcooked a bit so maybe helpful if we could have received time suggestions. The sides were yummy too, especially the spicy rice cakes!”
“If it were up to me, I can honestly eat here every week and never get tired. Their pork belly and Iron Age steak + their chili sauce is so goated 😋”
“Love coming to this place for a bite. They have a fabulous limited lunch menu at a discount. Their dinner menus is really good as well. Would definitely recommend this place. Can get busy at certain times in the evening.”
“I'm pretty sure that most of the people that complain about getting sick from the food here don't know how to cook. Give this place a try, it's a cheaper option and the quality of the meats/ flavors are really good. The wait times can be long and the service can use some work, but this is our go-to spot.”
“I love this place. It’s so good. I went for the first time. The waiter was so nice. Wish I knew his name. He provided amazing service! The meats came so fast. They were on it with switching the plates so our meat doesn’t stick. The soju was great! All the food was fresh my favorite was the Brisket was so thin. I loved it. Bulgogi with pineapple was tasty!”
“Was my first time eating here. I enjoyed the food. The brisket was my favorite along with the spicy beef.”
“I'm writing this review with great disappointment about our experience last night. My two friends and I (all girls, so we didn't order a huge amount) had dinner here. We were first-time customers and ordered pork, beef, and squid. Initially, everything seemed fine, and we were even chatting at the table after finishing our meal. Then, I started feeling intense stomach pain and had to rush to the restroom with diarrhea. The worst part? It wasn't just me. Soon, all three of us were experiencing the same symptoms. We spent the entire night suffering from severe diarrhea, which completely ruined our next day, including our work. The fact that all of us got sick confirms that the issue was with the food here. To think we waited in line for an hour for this outcome is just adding insult to injury. I am utterly disappointed and will never return”
“This place is always great!! A must try if your in the area!! Food and service and atmosphere is always top notch!”
“Our server, he was kind and listen to our every need. Made sure our metal stove tray was changed every cooked session, drinks kept refilled. I had a wonderful time 10/10.”
