    A spur of the moment decision to stop for dinner as we passed this restaurant which was across the large Wayne Ave. Garage where we had parked. The delicious smells hit directly into our faces as the front door was opened. This looks like a popular neighborhood establishment. We were greeted and seated immediately on a Wed. evening. The setting is a bit dark with neon lights and table booths with their BBQ grills arranged around the restaurant. It did feel a bit tight for my legs due to the way the BBQ grill was set into the table. Service was great. The person attending to us helped explain the menu, how to order and decide on which proteins to be brought out. He would occasionally pop over and help grill our meats when we became too busy talking instead of cooking our meals. We ordered the All You Can Eat Option A and you are given 1 1/2 hr. to eat, don't know how strict they would be with that. Unless you are truly hungry, I would order an à la carte dinner instead of the all you can eat option. I particularly enjoyed the thick cut pork belly, steamed egg and spicy tofu stew. There were a few small portions of Banchan to go with our meal and you would need to order additional side dishes of noodles or rice dishes separately from the all you can eat menu choices. There were tried and true hearty portions of meats to grill and it was quite filling. Nothing extraordinary but tasty and a nice place to visit on a regular basis if you want a satisfying Korean meal.

    Honestly, this is my new spot. We frequent Iron Age, but decided to give firepan a try this time. All the protein was really good quality. The steak was amazing. We did try one of the sushi rolls. I would skip on those the rice on. It was very mushy. Other than that, everything was really good. The side dishes were good and the service was exceptional.

    We love firepan. They always have great service and delicious food! Our go to is- steamed egg, rice, salad, firepan steak (literally almost like la galbi) my friend said bulgogi was her favorite, pork belly and sliced brisket. Its pretty busy in the area I would recommend reserving if you go in the middle of lunch or dinner time. We went early on sunday afternoon around 3 pm, people were still eating & busy! I also like the vibe in there. It was a bit cold but the heat from the grill was adjusting :)

    So glad they gave refills of the radish! Good refreshing banchan to combat the greasiness of the meat. The staff kept coming over to our table even though we chose to grill ourselves, so that wasn't ideal, but at least the staff is attentive and makes sure that their patrons don't burn down the restaurant (?). Good prime steak and brisket that wasn't too fatty. I wish they had more veggie options but this is KBBQ! They have good marinated bulgolgi from their option A too! Their ventilation is pretty good as well--my hair didn't end up smelling all Smokey! Came out very full and happy!

    Finally dined in and loved the quality of meat and serving size! Our waiter was friendly and offered to help with the cooking which I love as it takes the pressure off of the table paying attention and cooking. Really spacious with lots of space for walk ins on the Sunday we went! My only problem is while it was affordable for lunch ( around 35 per person for one of the all you can eat options) I really love Galbi and the combo that included galbi was quite the price jump. But def worth it despite that personal preference ! There's still so many great options - way more than a lot of places to pick from - and rice and sides are included.

    Great time at FirePan. The service was exceptional. I like that our server provided us with the option to cook on the grill. It allowed us to just enjoy the food without the worry of burning the food. The food was really good as well. My favorite were the short ribs. Delicious. I'll definitely be back.

    Solid KBBQ spot in the heart of Eden Center! Good service and quality meat, but a bit overpriced compared to some other options farther out--however, the location is in the perfect spot surrounded by other fantastic eateries and shops which makes it a go-to for us. A bit busy on certain evenings, so be prepared to be on a waiting list if you don't get a reservation.

    For the price in quality of the meat served at this Korean barbecue place I don't think you can beat the price! Not only do you get quality meat, but the quantity served as well is substantial to the point that you do not get hungry trying to flag your waiter down again for a second or third order set. For lunch on weekdays it is $23. All you can eat for the A package for dinner and weekends. The price is $30 per person. Will be returning here and also a great date spot to take someone if you like to enjoy privacy and have a full meal!!

    The ACYE option has more options than what most places I've been to have. With option C, the ribeye steak with butter was so worth the up charge! You get sushi, more "premium" meats and everything else in the other options Our server was really great and made sure to constantly come back to our table to make sure we had everything we needed. Excellent customer service and food was just great! Definitely recommend coming to the Eden center and coming here!

    The service was OK, my niece did end up with a plate of raw chicken on her lap, but that was totally an accident. The server just fell. The overall ambience of the restaurant is really small and there's not very many places to sit so it's kind of a longer wait if you wanna sit down and meet it's very nicely decorated and it's clean. The food is good. They have all kinds of options for steak chicken seafood. I would go there again, but I probably would not take my kids with me.

By far…read more The ribs are superb - dry rubbed with a light sauce coating but intense flavor and the cuts aren't all choppy keeping the meat intact on the bone until it slides off when eaten. The brisket takes the show though - spectacular beef flavor, smoky with excellent bark with the excess fat rendered down keeping it juicy without a huge layer under the surface. Sides are great - the slaw has a good vinegar strength to cut the meat sweats, and the cornbread was solid. Super wide range of sauces for every taste including multiple Carolina styles, KC, Alabama white, and some spicy pepper sauces. Self serve, open seating, and expect there to be a line on weekends, but totally worth it.

Clean restrooms and tons of indoor seating. Loved their sauce bar- Alabama, Kansas City, Carolina style to make all the different bbq lovers happy. I agree with the sentiment of wishing they had combo plates as one sausage was like 6 bucks which is wild. Foodwise - tried the coleslaw, mac and cheese, jalapeno cheddar sausage, and the pulled pork. Best thing hands down was the mac and cheese - creamy but with great flavor and a great cheese ratio. Coleslaw was so so- good but some wilted pieces and was a bit thrown by the pickle pieces (though I love pickles). Jalapeno cheddar sausage was good but in my opinion, a bit overpriced for just one sausage. Lastly - the pulled pork. While not bad quality meat, the aftertaste was a bit off putting and I think the chips they may use in their smoker are just not my vibe. With the sauces, you didn't notice it as much but just on generic taste, not my favorite pulled pork in the area. Cornbread and butter were great - no complaints there. Overall solid spot- I'd come back for sausage, maybe try the brisket, but will definitely get some mac and cheese again.

    Delivery review ahead!…read more I have not yet visited this place in person so I'm unsure how it is inside and how the service is. Delivery: well packaged for a long trip to DC and it remained fresh and hot. Food: Sweet potato tater tots El Lomo Saltado Both of these selections were AMAZING! The sweet potato tater tots were genius! Perfectly prepared, packing flavor in each bite. The El Lomo Saltado was DIVINE! Allow me to break down the flavors: Biscuit: gosh this biscuit was buttery and soft. And yes, the juices from the steak did not make it soggy. But back to the biscuit...the top was flaky and the inside was soft! Soft and buttery. Egg: I asked for a well done fried egg (the main dish contains over easy) the egg was perfectly cooked and delicious. Steak: the steak pieces were generous and the seasoning on the meat...dangerous! There was a slice of provolone cheese melted on the egg and the sandwich also contained pieces of potatoes and tomatoes inside. All of the flavors in this biscuit meshed together so well, making this a reallllllllllllllly good sandwich. Now I'm sold! What other fun dishes can I try on their menu?!

    1 Star is too much -- Very disappointing experience…read more We were really excited to try this restaurant because we were hoping for an authentic Argentinian dining experience. Unfortunately, it was nothing like what we expected, and the food was extremely disappointing. Then I found out the owner is Bolivian not even Argentinian. The chimichurri was red and had a very different taste than what we expected. The green hot sauce was basically like eating raw jalapeño--extremely overpowering. The mashed potatoes were watery and very salty, and the broccoli was literally sitting in so much water that almost half of the bowl was full of it. The rice tasted like microwave rice, and the French fries were just ordinary fries. The biggest disappointment was the meat. It was extremely fatty, chewy, and had almost no flavor. The chicken was overcooked and tasted like leftovers that had been reheated. For an Argentinian restaurant, the quality and preparation of the meat should be one of the highlights, but unfortunately, it was the complete opposite. Honestly, we could barely eat our food and ended up leaving most of it. What made the experience even worse was that, despite barely being able to eat the food, we were still charged half of the meal. The total bill was over $85, and that included $5 for a small cup of what tasted like microwave rice. Just in case the food looks half-empty in the pictures, we did put some of the food onto our plates to try it. Unfortunately, we couldn't eat it, so that's why some of the containers look partially empty. As someone who was genuinely looking forward to trying Argentinian food, this experience was incredibly disappointing. In my opinion, this restaurant does not represent the quality or flavors that people expect from Argentinian cuisine. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this restaurant, and I would not return.

We ordered a variety of appetizers, such as the the empanadas, calamari, and garlic shrimp. My favorite items were the empanadas and calamari, which were extra tasty with the accompanying sauces. We also ordered a variety of grilled meats, including the two large Parrillada meat platters and picanha . The accompanying sides we tried were the fries, cheese rice, fried yucca, and plantains. I really liked the plantains, but the cheese rice was not was I expected. It was more like grits than cheesy rice. The meats were cooked to how we requested it, and of course tastes especially good with the sauces. My favorite cuts were the strip steak, beef rib, and picanha. I didn't really care for the sweet breads, but that is a personal preference. Value wise, the Parrillada platters could easily feed 4 - 5 people, so we had plenty of leftovers. I would definitely recommend checking out La Estancia if you enjoy grilled meats!

Jeff does a stellar job every Tuesday with trivia. There are themed trivia nights (Disney, Harry Potter, Marvel, etc.) sometimes that tend to get PACKED. So if you're planning to go, plan ahead and go early. The kitchen staff rock and are efficient at getting food out quickly. Everything is cooked in an oven. The pretzel and beer cheese is very popular and yummy. The food overall is average, but Darren does a good job of rotating specials throughout the year. Some of my personal favorite items (note some are specials) : Philly cheesesteak eggrolls, BBQ chicken nachos, German brat, CBR flatbread + drunken onions and peppers, the Apple pie quesadilla and the Elvis dilla. If you're looking for an amazing sit down dinner, this probably isn't your spot. But if you're looking for a great beer selection, awesome people, and a bite to eat this is definitely for you! The staff are all friendly and knowledgeable on beer. A few of them have the level 1 Cicerone certification. Admittedly, I bartended here for a year and just recently left due to moving. I frequented this place before I started working and I will return from time to time now as a customer. This is my honest feedback.
