Overall 4.5/5: First time going to a dedicated skewer restaurant. It was a cool experience and…read moreenjoyed it, despite the music being too loud for my liking. There was a lot of energy in the place. The wait staff were friendly. Food was great but was pricey per skewer. Food 5/5: Delicious and tasted close to skewer cart (this is a win!). Would have loved to try more things but some skewers were up to $3 each so it got pricey fast. They did have a large selection of skewers to choose from. You get a wrist band with a QR code that tracks what skewers you order. Non-skewer items could be ordered using your phone. Everything was fresh. They had house-made spice and sauce packets at each table. Every table had a cheat sheet showing how long to barbecue each type of skewer. We tried the bbq scallops which were full of garlicky goodness and cold noodles which was a refreshing balance to the heat of the grill. Service 5/5: Friendly waiter. Gave us the run down on how things worked in the restaurant. Periodically checked in on us. No complaints. Ambiance 4/5: Prefacing that the high energy environment was not really my cup of tea but I know others may prefer it. Bright flashing lights and loud music playing over speakers drowned out conversation. That said, the tables were spaced well so every party had their own personal space and restaurant was clean.

Ordered by scanning the qr code and checking off different items from you phone for them to bring the items to your table. Beef, shrimp, chicken, lamb and various seafood to cook on skewers that rotate on the table grill. Price ranges around 2 to 5$ per stick of meat. They didn't have okra and some items were out of stock when I went.

Beware: The plates near the grill will burn you…read more We had a table of six, but the restaurant only turned on one grill. Because of this, a plate of meat had to be passed across the table to me. The side of the plate that had been sitting near the flame was scalding hot. The moment I touched it, I suffered a first-degree burn and instantly dropped the plate. Management's solution to this hazard? A single, casual sign posted on the opposite wall that customers can easily miss. The rest of my night was completely ruined. I spent the entire meal holding my hand in ice. To make matters worse, the meat was incredibly tough--to the point where I had to spit it out.

I do wish they had the standard Korean barbecue sauce. I felt like that was missing and would have made the experience much better. The service overall was good, and the ambiance is what you'd expect out of your classic Korean barbecue restaurant. I just wish the meat quality was a little better considering the price of around $50 per person.

If you haven't tried grilling your own meat, you are missing out. This was such a fun experience…read moreand it's great being able to cook your food to your own taste. I prefer my beef medium rare so this was just the perfect place for me. They provide the seasonings on the side for you to add and that stuff is crack!! They have an extensive Chinese and Korean menu that I personally have not really explored but the food definitely looks good. I come here for one thing only:skewers This is definitely a hole in the wall type place as you need to walk into a basement to find it. There's only one side of booth seating and it can get pretty toasty with all the grills running. It's a loud and obnoxious restaurant that wreaks of smoke but if you can get past that, you'll get to enjoy a delicious meal. Don't expect 5 star service since the staff is running around all over the place. It's difficult to get anyone's attention but they are pretty nice.

This was my third time back, and I still think this is the best option around if you're looking to…read moreindulge in quality meat. We went on a quiet Friday afternoon. There were several occupied tables, but we still received plenty of attention from the servers throughout the meal. I've tried a few similar places, and this one continues to stand out. The meat portions are generous, and they can handle high heat well enough to develop a great sear. One major change since my previous visits is the appetizer selection. The menu has shifted heavily toward sushi and sashimi offerings. If you're someone like me who enjoys both premium cuts of meat and fresh sashimi, this is pretty much the ideal combination. They now offer many more specialty rolls than before, and the quality of the salmon and tuna also seemed noticeably better. My husband, however, would disagree. Since he doesn't really care for sashimi and prefers not to fill up on rolls, he would have liked to see a stronger selection of traditional appetizers and sides. Another welcome change is that lobster is now unlimited instead of being restricted to a single serving. The lobsters themselves are smaller, which I didn't mind, but both the cheese lobster and the garlic butter lobster were incredibly salty. I'm not sure if it was the seasoning or the type of lobster being used, but the garlic butter version was "clog-my-arteries" salty. I mentioned it to the kitchen simply as feedback, although I wasn't planning on ordering any more regardless. The only items limited to one order per person were the Kumamoto oysters topped with uni and caviar, the sweet shrimp with caviar, and one other premium item that I can't quite remember. Everything else was unlimited, including their new sauce station and ice cream machine. I especially appreciated the expanded sauce selection. On my previous visits, they only offered their Asian spice blend, which is still my favorite. But when I saw they had A1 sauce available, I had to do it--I dipped the A5 in A1. I can't believe they offered it, but once I saw it there, it felt like a rite of passage. One disappointment was that they had run out of foie gras. I had my cash ready and everything. If you pay cash, you receive complimentary foie gras with the Wagyu and uni, so I was definitely looking forward to it. To their credit, they offered us a premium abalone appetizer as a substitute, but I politely declined and opted to pay by credit card instead. The servers were friendly, attentive, and incredibly efficient. There was never any concern about running out of time during the 90-minute dining window. In fact, by the time the 90 minutes were up, I couldn't imagine fitting in another bite. The manager, or at least who I assumed was the manager also stopped by to check on us, made conversation, and was very pleasant. One thing I especially appreciate about this place is that I've never felt rushed. Even when we've gone beyond the 90-minute mark, the staff still comes by to ask if we'd like to order anything else. There's no countdown or "last call" pressure like you often find at other ACYE spots. Overall, it was another very enjoyable meal. I left unbelievably stuffed and, despite a few minor criticisms, still felt it was absolutely worth it.

I love that they have a huge variety of flavors and seasonings: 3 sauces, korean ssamjang peppers and garlic, 3 spice blends for dipping. The servers were all very friendly and gave us some great recommendations on what to order, so we got a combination of beef and pork cuts, as well as veggies and eel. The eel is so fresh and juicy, the waitress told us they get their eels live and process it in their own kitchen. They cook everything right in front of you, unlike kbbq places where you cook meat yourself. I also appreciated the good ventilation, we didn't smell like meat at all after leaving the restaurant! Additional notes: - we thought it was funny that they put sprinkles in the potato salad, it may seem kind of odd but definitely very Chinese (compliment btw) - it ended up being almost $50 pp for 4 people - we got lucky and didn't have to wait, but I hear there's usually a line, so definitely call ahead to suss out the wait
