Absolutely disgusting. One of the filthiest restaurants I've ever seen. Some of the worst food I've…read moreever eaten. The littered parking lot and dirty front door should have told me to not walk in. But, I thought maybe I was being too "judgy" and plucked up my courage. Since They billed themselves as Asian fusion, I was hoping to see some unique Thai, Korean Japanese, etc offerings. I asked the gal at the front counter for suggestions and she recommended French fries. Fries are your best dish?!? She couldn't answer any of my questions about the rest of the menu. Strike 1. A phone call came in while we were discussing the menu and she took it. While she was on the phone, I noticed all the upcharge signs. A 4% charge for using a credit card. A charge if you want a chili oil. A charge if you wanted a cup of water. A charge saying all sauces are extra. Strike 2. I finally settled on one of their "Fan Favorites" - a pork ramen bowl. Paid (no, I'm not tipping you for taking my order) and sat down. The tables all looked really dirty. But I couldn't tell if it was dirt or rust. I sat down and immediately noticed dozens of dead bugs in the dust on the windowsill. They were on the floor, too. And they were flying all over the place trying to get out of the windows. Maybe I should have followed their instincts and tried to get out too. Strike 3. I picked up my dish when the buzzer rang (Seriously, WHY are you asking for tips?). First impressions were that it looked really bland. Basically a bunch of wet noodles and a half of an egg and some sketchy looking meat rolls. I dove in and it was just pure salt. No other flavors. Salty AF. Tried the meat. It was supposed to be "fatty pork" and it didn't disappoint...in a bad way. Stringy globs of inedible fat. It was so gross, I dumped it all. Strike 4. While exiting, I looked at the other diners meals. Most of them had the fries. Maybe I should have taken the cashier's suggestion...

The stuff chicken wings were good to me. Filled with vermicelli noodles. My favorite meat was the roasted pork dipped in the sauce. The only bad thing was the cabbage, it tasted spoiled. There's a lot of seatings and it was cool for a hot day. So if you're in the area, stop by and give it a try!!!

The inside looks a bit outdated, but it was not that big of a deal to me as everything was running properly. I thought that the chefs were very cool to watch. I got the Hibachi Chicken. It was a really filling meal! This place does not skimp out on portions. I enjoyed how tender the zucchini and chicken were cooked and the shrimp sauce made it taste a lot better (who does not love shrimp sauce?!). I thought that everything was seasoned well, but a bit too well? My meal was a bit salty for my liking, but that is just a personal preference. As my first hibachi experience, I would probably give this place a 3.5/5 stars if I could. It is not overly fancy and works for a place like Hickory.

No draft beers from what I saw, only bottled beer which is fine. We all got Sapporo which was nice, 22oz tall boys. For food we all got hibachi which was delicious - I was surprised how flavorful and delicious it was. I personally got the steak and chicken and loved it. Like all hibachi you get soup, salad, shrimp, and the hibachi meal you ordered with fried rice. We all left full and happy. The staff was super friendly and we were sat quickly, our orders were taken quickly and the food and drinks came out quick. Only thing that could have been improved was the hibachi tricks! Spinning knives and the egg in the hat are a classic - but no onion volcano !? no sake water gun!? Gotta step up the production value here lol, overall a great spot though.

A lot of Korean restaurants in America will swap out ingredients for cheaper options, but this restaurant included the seasoned shiitake mushrooms, squash, and bean sprouts. Additionally, the fried egg was a perfect circle. You could tell that Baek really cares about the food it serves. It's no surprise that the lady working in the kitchen is very kind. The restaurant is also very clean. For anyone from NYC or Atlanta or Korea, Baek is a solid 5 stars for Hickory. If you're in the area craving Korean, it'll more than scratch the itch.

You order from the counter and a sweet korean auntie brings your food to the table. The owner came by at the end of the meal and checked up on us. The service and ambiance was simple and pleasant. We ordered the Japchaebab (stir-fried glass noodles), Kimchi Jjikae (stew), and Ozingo Bokeum (squid stir fry). Everything came out quickly and was absolutley delicious! You can tell that a lot of care went into the food. My only complaint is that there was only one soup/stew on the menu (not including the ramen). Normally I appreciate a smaller menu where the focus is on quality and not quantity, however, I love Korean soups and stews and wish they had more of that. That being said, the kimchi stew was pretty good and it hit the spot that night. The stew had a tomato base which really balanced out the kimchi. I don't believe a tomato base is the norm but heck, it worked! I look forwars to going back and trying more of the menu. Definitely give this spot a try.
