They never let me down! 've been there couple times. They are famous for their cheesy chicken but their beef bbq is excellent too. read more

This place is amazing! I had such a good time here tonight with my friends! The service was very friendly even though we had to ask multiple times for some things, but they were really busy so I'll give them that. The food was very satisfying. We ordered beef ribs and pork belly, along with the spicy chicken with cheese (minimum two orders) -and it was all so good! The melted cheese just makes it 10x better! The beef was deliciously marinated. They were very generous with sides, there were 5 of us and they gave us double the sides. It also comes with tofu soup that gets heated in the middle of the grill. We had also ordered the seafood pancake -very crispy at the edges! And calamari. Everything came to a total of less than $35 per person after tax and tips! A must try for Korean bbq lovers! I will definitely come back for more. Make sure to go in a group to make room for the kbbq meats and the minimum 2 orders of spicy chicken/squid. read more

Came during covid and sat at the patio. They had a smaller menu which includes cheese ring, bbq, and not much. Got unlucky and had to sit in the hot sun without an umbrella yet they pulled out umbrellas for other people. Service was meh, our buzzer didn't work and when they gave us a new buzzer we still had to call the waiters, guess it was just busy. Glad they do temperature checks but if you're gonna host people in 30degree weather, there should be shaded areas to eat. read more

My first time here. Came with a group of 11. That probably wasn't the best idea. We were given our own section, and it had two tables that could comfortably seat four. We were fairly squished. At any other restaurant, sitting with chairs so close that we couldn't get up unless the people next to us moved would already be an issue. Here, it was worse. The problems started about as soon as we sat down. They gave us bowls to eat out of, and the entire stack was oily. Not just a little oily. I could see the oil on my fingers. We asked for clean bowls. They server looked unhappy with our request. They gave us more bowls. The majority of these ones had some sort of dried food stains on them, so we once again asked for more. Pretty sure the third time, they were still slightly oily, but we gave up asking again. During this, they also didn't give us enough tea or cold water for our cups, or enough sets of cutlery even though we asked a couple of times. Short staffed? Probably an issue here. On the upside, they do answer when you press the buzzer on the wall. Things went crazy after the food started coming. The issue with sitting all crammed at a restaurant like this is that if the tables aren't big enough, there isn't enough space to put the food. I ordered 6 portions of BBQ meats (beef : $24.99/order, thick pork belly: $16.99/order and thin pork belly: $15.99/order), 2 orders of spicy chicken and cheese (minimum 2 portions), a Kobi nabe set (fish cake, udon, hard boiled eggs, mussels, dumplings), and a 2 person portion of cold noodles. Each of the BBQ items said a minimum of 2 orders, so that I did. There was not nearly enough space on the two tables for all the food, and the servers did next to nothing (other than separate our cold noodles into portions for us) to alleviate the problem. With the side dishes, the lettuce (served in measuring cups), the sauces, etc., my aunt was literally holding onto the raw meat plate as she began to grill so that we would have space on the table. The grilled meats come with a bowl of rice. The spicy chicken does not. None of the rice came until I ordered it at the end of the meal. Not cool. I mean, we're pretty much done our meat before we have to ask for rice? I did get an extra bowl of rice as "service". Did that make up for the previous issues? Not in the least. I suppose they didn't give us rice because there was no space on the table for it, but that's not my problem. If I'm with a party of two and you sit me at a two person table and I don't have enough space because I ordered a lot of food, fine. I accept that it's my fault. This, however, was slightly ridiculous. We ended up putting things on the table dividers and stuff. It made for a fairly tasking dining experience. That being said, they get 3 stars because their food is quite tasty, and the portions are very reasonable for the price. They also gave us steamed egg as a free appetizer, and that was a nice touch. The spicy chicken was not very spicy, but definitely delicious, especially with the cheese (mozz, I think). We also thought there wasn't enough cheese. It looks like a lot, but when you dip the chicken in, it disappears really quickly. Still not worth the price though, at $18.99/serving, seeing as it isn't even served with rice. Here I thought Joon's was expensive. This tasted much better than Joon's though. In terms of grilled meat, the thin pork belly was too thin (think super-thin bacon). It cooked wayyy too quickly and lacked any sort of substance. Think shaved deli meat/hotpot meat. Shouldn't be a grilled option. The thick pork belly and the beef were both delicious and super tender though. While the beef was well marinated and had good marbling, the thick pork belly was my favorite because it was just that incredibly juicy. With the lettuce wraps and that lovely vinegary sauce they provided (the one that looks like soy sauce), it doesn't even feel fatty. Perhaps I would be back on a weekday with a considerably smaller party, but I would have to get over the dirty dishes first. read more

3.5 I love spicy sauce, and am in love with cheese...so of course I had to try this place, since it specializes in "Spicy Chicken Cheese" and "Spicy Squid Cheese." FOOD: I went with the chicken this time, and was pretty impressed with the chicken portions, as mixed in with white onions, yams, and peppers. As you would think, this dish is pretty hot, but not "I need a glass of milk right now!" hot...this would probably be well tolerated by most. Most of the mains come with the traditional array of Korean apps, as well as a steamed egg soup (which was pleasantly fluffy and filling). The menu selection is not huge, but other decent options Korean/BBQ options available here too. PRICE: I must say I'm not a fan of the way pricing is displayed in the menu. There's some vague note about "minimum 2 portions." In the menu though, there's a picture of "2 portions" of the spicy chicken/squid ($36+) listing the "one portion" price ($18+). A bit misleading in my opinion...Other than this, the rest of the prices were fairly standard for this type of place. SERVICE: Given how busy they were on a Friday night, they were actually surprisingly attention. They were quick to respond to the bell notifications that some Korean BBQ places have. I did start wondering about the possibility of the whole place burning down though, because the servers don't really seem to explain how and how long to operate the grill...and when to turn it off - they just kind of assumed we knew? VERDICT: A bit stuffy and crowded, but a decent place to grab some spicy/cheesy food and/or soju on a weekend. read more

I didn't really understand the hype about this place even before I came, and after trying it, I still don't. We went for the chicken and cheese, which is one of their more unique offerings. It comes in an interesting pan with chicken, rice cakes, vegetables, etc. in the middle of the pan, and a separate section surrounding it which is filled with shredded cheese, which melts once cooked. We also ordered the Kobi Nabi, which is like a bunch of stuff cooked in broth - apparently it's like Korean street food but just seemed like regular hotpot to me (except all the food is preselected for you and already placed in the broth.) This came with a couple skewers of fish cakes, udon noodles, dumplings, eggs, and mussels. The food tasted okay, but it was like $20 and I just looked at it thinking about how even I could prepare something like this at home, and I don't even like to cook. Like boiled eggs, dumplings, and udon? That was pretty much my every day diet while I was a student at school, give me a break... The spicy chicken with cheese we ordered was okay but didn't blow me away. We requested for it to be made less spicy, but I still found it to be a bit too spicy. The main issue I found was that there wasn't enough time to enjoy the whole thing before the cheese dried out and got hard. We also found the lack of instruction and attention from the staff to be a bit frustrating. After the initial set up, our waitress helped us stir around the meat and veggies for a bit and then disappeared, never to be seen again. We weren't sure if the food was ready to be eaten, so just sat around waiting for a bit until we got too hungry. I didn't even think it was that exciting to dip the food into the cheese (like fondue) - I greatly prefer it when the cheese is just mixed into the food, like at Joon's. We ordered two portions of the spicy chicken with cheese (minimum two orders required), the Kobi Nabi, and two bowls of steamed rice for four people and it was more than enough food. The chicken and cheese also came with a little bowl of steamed egg. Price-wise it ended up being quite cheap because we paid less than $20/person, but even so, I don't think I liked it enough to come back. read more

Ordered the spicy chicken and shrimp with cheese. Overall a decent experience Pros: cool experience, great customer service, anything covered in cheese is delicious, more than enough for 2 people Cons: had not one bit of spice in it, no flavours kind of tasted like everything was thrown in tomato sauce, pineapples in cheese ( no mention of that in the menu), minimum order of 2 orders Would come back to try something else on their menu but not for the chicken and cheese dish read more

Went there today for lunch with my friends. The food was ok, nothing special. However, the service was really bad. I don't know how to describe it, but the waitress acted like we owe her lots of money... She was unresponsive to our questions-- like, no joke, she rolled her eyes on us until we ask the next question. We had a pot of tea with us. She took it away and said we are not allowed to keep the tea pot on our table. Just ask her when we need to drink tea-- she comes by every half an hour though...... The funny thing was, when we almost done lunch, she suddenly became so friendly and started asking how we were doing-- still wouldn't bring napkins or tea or new chopsticks to us when we requested tho, but she actually looked at us in the eyes... So yea, customer service was really bad, but we had fun watching her being mad at a bunch of customers tho :) read more

We ordered two portions of pork belly & beef for our table top bbq. The cuts were tender & marinated well. The banchans were also tasty, and can be refilled limitlessly. I only wish that they had vents over the grill so that the smell doesn't stick to my clothes. read more

Chicken and Cheese!! We ordered two portions to share between four people and it was still a lot. It does take time to cook so we ordered the thick pork jowl to BBQ for the meantime. Both was so delicious and the price was amazing. My parents loved it and thought it was one of the best Korean BBQ they've had. read more

Kobi Korean BBQ - Barbeque Near Me - Vaughan, Ontario

Kind of racist with mediocre food. I read the yelp reviews online and still decided to come here as the photos of the food looked good. Yikes One thing to note: For the hotplates, you HAVE to order 2 servings ($20 per serving) so you're paying $40 for one hotplate. [4/5 stars] For the kbbq: the quality of meat is not worth its price. If you are coming here, the sliced beef is the best choice. Kbbq Porkbelly (not the thinly sliced one): [1/5] We opted for the more expensive meats to start since this place was popular and what a disappointment.. You pay $16 for 4 slices and when it came, the slices were small, short, not fresh.. please avoid this one. Kbbq Sliced Beef: [3/5] One of the better picks out of the others, not worth paying $25 for though In the end, I paid over $130 for 4 people and it wasn't that filling as we had to keep reordering (kbbq portions are small, hotplate was big). With this amount of money, it would be more worth going to Little Piggy's or all you can eat Gyubee kbbq for the same price, a lot better quality. Service: [0/5] Seems like everyone on yelp had a problem with their service. The people who worked there, mostly part-time young adults from the looks of it, does not know how to work at customer service at all (I should know because I worked part-time the past few school terms). You can tell that they dislike working service jobs. Not to mention, all the staff (except for the girl with brown hair) were rude to us and other customers that were not Korean. It was a sad sight to see as they treated the Korean customers nicely, but the other ethnicity's like they didn't give a shit. I began reading the reviews again before writing this one and everyone had the same problem. Why go to a restaurant to feel mistreated. read more

I came here based on the Yelp reviews here and pictures from Instagram and knew I had to visit. So on Christmas Day, we came here for an early dinner. It wasn't that busy so service was quite efficient. We decided to order the pork belly (the thick cut kind) and the mok sal which I believe is the neck part. Anyway, not only do you get your typical side dishes, but it also comes with a bowl of steamed egg, soybean stew that goes right in the middle of the grill so it's hot the entire time, lettuce leaves, a bowl of green onions and lettuce, a plate of sliced onions, dipping sauce, and a bowl of which I believe is sauce for the meat (and apparently you put your onions in the sauce so it can soak up) - I didn't know this. If you want extra lettuce leaves, rice or steam egg they charge you extra. What I did was ripped the lettuce leaves into small pieces so there would be enough for some of the meat. Onto the meat itself, I found the pork neck (?) most juicy, it was really flavourful. I think I prefer it more than the pork belly itself. But don't get me wrong, I love myself some pork belly and those were delicious as well! If you're a big eater like me, I don't think two servings will fill you up. It'll just make your stomach content. The service was good, but one of the waitress accidentally dropped my change on the ground and couldn't find it- most likely .10 cents but who cares lol. Overall, will definitely come back again. I think this place is a bit cheaper than most korean bbq restaurants out there! read more

I found the male serving us to be rude, lacking in knowledge and presumptive. I was very greatful he decided to randomly switch and give us another server, she was wonderful and didn't drip of his disgusting entitled, prejudiced aura. She was quite lovely and served us with good humor and a smile. The food was delicious, but we received as I can tell from looking at the photos of others served in this establishment the very bare basics, no rice, no lettuce etc... I honestly felt discriminated against in a passive aggressive manner, the male server had the audacity to remind me I was ordering pork... as if every brown person was unable to eat that meat, but didn't bring this up with my Caucasian friends ordering pork belly, I was not impressed. I believe some decorum and manners are needed for that gentleman as well as a reminder Canada is diverse and I probably speak more Korean than you...lol The food however I cannot fault, the meat though expensive was delicious and flavourful. The Dukbokki was spicy and honestly made me very happy. Our lovely female server was knowledgeable and pleasant. In the end it was a wonderful experience with both service and food quality. I am greatful the server was changed at the beginning of the experience. In all it's worth checking out. But I think I will not be returning as I feel the prejudice behavior of the male, the missing items from our order, the exclusively Korean menu etc says... you aren't welcome here. read more

Pleasantly surprised with this place. We arrived 5:45PM and there were already a lot of people but had a table within minutes. We were 3 adults with two kids and we ordered the pork belly and marinated beef for the BBQ, a pork bone soup, and a cold noodle. When the food arrived, our table was completely covered! All the food was delicious and very filling. The only negative would have been the lack of ventilation. By the end of our meal, the whole dining area was thick with smoke. Otherwise, we will definitely come back. read more

The snow lately has been making me crave for some warm, bubbling korean food! We decided to be a bit more adventurous and ordered the tofu and intestine casserole. The tofu and the vegetables (wintermelon, lettuce, carrots) were great. However, I was not a big fan of the intestines and found the taste and texture to be a bit off. Maybe next time I will stick to BBQ-ing some regular cuts of meat! read more

Good Korean BBQ place for groups. They require you to order at least two orders per table cooking (like BBQ or the stove top). I went with a group of 7 and we ordered 3 orders of the chicken and cheese and one order each of the bbq pork belly, sliced pork belly and sliced beef. The chicken and cheese go so well together. Wow would definitely recommend. The meats were good and prices are better than some other restaurants in the area. There were 6 or 7 or so different apps but in tint dishes so we had ask for refills many times. But overall the service is fast and food is good. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon and decided to binge on the cheesey spicey chicken and spicey squid mix. This was my 2nd time here and I had to say it gave a better impression than the first time. I guess it was because the afternoon was their down time while friday dinner time (which was when I went the first time) was kinda too crazy for the service and food to keep up. The service was better, the lady came to check up on us a couple of times throughout the meal and refilled our side dishes, the food came fast and the definitely not as over cooked as my first experience. So my advice, go for lunch or late lunch instead of dinner. You would get a better meal experience. read more

If you're here for the spicy meat and cheese, there are more and better options at other Korean restaurants - you are in K-town after all. They cheaped out with only 5 appetizers instead of the normal 6, and my boyfriend could handle the kimchi spiciness which means that it wasn't spicy or flavourful at all. The menu wasn't entirely clear as to what a portion of the cheese and chicken was either. We ordered the Korean noodle tabletop cooking with beef, mushroom and water parsley for two. However, we were not full afterwards -- it was not enough for two. It was so unappetizing, we didn't even bother taking pictures. read more

I tried Kobi based on the hype of the Cheese-Ring Chicken and heres what I think of it Although it was nice to look at the food was not as nice to eat. We ordered the spicy chicken and cheese and opted for the extra ramen and rice cakes. We ordered the minimum of two orders between four people. On the side we also ordered the Pork Belly table-cooking. The pork belly was pretty standard no real "wow" factor to it, the chicken and cheese was also very too spicy for some people in our table which they didnt warn us as we can usually eat mild to medium foods. Other than it being too spicy there wasn't alot of chicken anyways, the only positive thing about the food was the chicken was very tender and juicy which shows that it is fresh at the very least. The service wasn't as quick as some Yelpers stated but it was also pretty busy when I went, not very attentive if theyre not being flagged down as we were trying to see if it was a good idea to turn down the stove as the cheese was frying faster than we could scoop it. I would come again not but for the chicken and cheese, if you want good dukgalbi I would go down the street to Joons. The washroom was standard nothing special no poo on the wall but no gold toilets as well. the quest for the 5-star washroom continues. read more

I went on Saturday afternoon for late lunch and the place wasn't as crowded as I thought it would be. Server greeted us and we were seated immediately. There were 3 of us and we ordered spicy chicken and cheese (min order of 2) and a bibimbap - plenty of food and we had to take the leftover home. The sauce of the chicken and the melted ooey gooey cheese complement each other very well. We also love the steamed egg soup - very fluffy. Overall, it was a good experience. read more

Went to this Korean restaurant about 12pm, me and my friend ordered a spicy chicken with cheese and a cold noodles. We've overestimated the amount of spicy chicken, we thought it would be just a small amount so that we ordered a cold noodles with beef bulgogi. The set dishes and the steamed egg cane along were good but the kimchi and the egg were relatively lack of flavour. For the spicy chicken with cheese, the chicken wasn't that spicy and we didn't get to choose the spiciness. While the cheese didn't workout as we expected, we couldn't stretch it out to cover the chicken or anything in the pot. And lastly for the cold noodles and beef, the cold noodles had no flavour, you'll need to add some mustard and vinegar. read more

Me and my friend went to Kobi tonight and the food and service was actually amazing. I was not expecting a good service based on the previous reviews I had read here, but the servers were all friendly and amazing. The lady serving us did all her best to tell us about the dishes and she was very quick brining our side dishes and main. She also came back 3-4 times to make sure everything is okay and asked how we like the food. We ordered beef and pork. For me the beef was better and next time I'll probably order two servings of beef instead of beef + pork. Overall I was very happy with the food and service and the price was reasonable. read more

Came here on Saturday around 7:30 for 2ppl. Note for next time, DO NOT WALK IN AT THIS TIME!! Wait time was about an hour, we didn't reserve because they only do reservations for groups of 4 or more. We ordered the spicy chicken & spicy squid with cheese. We also did the kbbq with salted beef and pork belly. Everything was really good and well worth the wait in my opinion. They also offered free dokbokki on the house for the wait time! Food came very quickly once we were seated and everyone was very friendly. Would come again but with reservations and maybe not at that time!! read more

The place had one entrance and 2 restaurants. Both restaurants are the same. I think one side does bbq and other does both. You can order the traditional korean dishes (bit pricer) however they are known for the cheese chicken. Bbq korean chicken and a ring of melted cheese. Its like fondu with bbq chicken. I would recommend adding the fried rice (they will fry with your left overs at the end). $18.99 for chicken for 1 serving. Serving are good portion so i say 2 serving for 3 people is more than enough. Parking usually pretty easy to find. They bring the small dishes like any korean restaurants which they will refill for free. I give 5 star only for the uniqueness of the fondu. 4 stars or lower if you come here for the other korean food. read more

Heard a lot about this place, and finally had the chance to visit yesterday. We ordered the spicy chicken with cheese BBQ and it was delicious!

Wait time: Party of two came on a Sunday at 6:30pm and had to wait a bit over half an hour. Daylight saving ended that night so its' more like the hunger of 7:30pm may attribute to why there were a lot more people. Food: ordered the spicy chicken and cheese and it was only ok (minimum of two orders). As we were a party of two we really couldn't order anything else. It's not the kind of cheese that I like it was the stringy white cheese similar to cheesestring. I prefer Joons for the cheesiness. I prefer Home of Hot Taste for spiciness and flavour. The difference is in the offering and presentation of the food. The chicken, dukbokki, cabbage, onions, and I think yam slices are in the centre with the sauce. The outer ring is of cheese corn and pineapples. You have to wait a bit for everything to cook and the cheese to melt then you dip all your food in the cheese. Service: The host was friendly and tried to get people and put there info onto the infamous white board. Kept reassuring us of the wait time and checking in once in a while. The servers, some spoke english and some had broken english but all very polite and smiled a lot which I appreciate. it's busy so in terms of attentiveness they aren't very. Which is probably why they installed a "call" button system. Pricing: single serving of chicken is $18.99 so the minimum of two orders is $37.98 before tax and tips. For that price and only trying one dish wasn't particularly economical to me. I think if you go in a group and try a lot of different dishes it will be more worth it. I won't come again unless my friends who have never tried want to go in a big group. That way we can also get reservations. Happy Fooding! read more

Food 4/5 We ordered the spicy chicken with cheese (min. 2 orders) and pork belly for table cooking (also min. 2 orders). The food arrived fairly quickly and before we knew it, the table was covered with our orders, side dishes and steamed egg. To start, aside from the egg, the other side dishes can be commonly found at other Korean restaurants. The egg came piping hot and was fluffy yet juicy with a nice broth. The spicy chicken was served on a hot plate with a mixture of rice cake, potatoes and cabbage surrounded by shredded cheese. Once the cheese is melted, you can dip your chicken in it which toned down the spice. The pork belly was a bigger cut compared to certain restaurants that give you slightly thicker versions of bacon. It's not cooked on the normal grills which was definitely better since it was less greasy and was fine to eat without rice. A soybean paste stew accompanied the pork belly which wasnt too strong in flavour but was a nice to the greasy meal. Service 4/5 When we first got there, we notified them that we were still waiting for another friend to arrive. The staff were very understanding and didn't rush us but also didn't provide us with tea until we asked. However service did turnaround once our food arrived. The staff were friendly and came by frequently to check on our food, served us each dish and even provided us with freebies (pancake and extra order of steamed egg). Another thing I appreciated was the staff would continuously come over to clear anything to make more room for us. One thing many Asian eateries lack is they generally clear everything after you leave. Overall, service was great after the initial hiccup. The food is also very satisfying on a cold night or if you're looking to optimize on cheat day! read more

I love this place! I have never had chicken and cheese more delicious than Kobi's. The staff and the manager is very friendly. My boyfriend and I try to come here as often as we can. The booths are also spacious and they often play kpop, which is a bonus for me. I love eating here. read more

I've been dying to try the spicy chicken and squid with the cheese around it for so long after seeing pictures and videos of it everywhere, but when i finally got the chance to go, it disappointingly didn't have much taste; plus, the price is so misleading! The menu says $18.99 for the chicken and $19.99 for the squid so I was assuming that would be the price for the entire thing and thought it was such a great deal. It was actually the price per person! What way of pricing is that??? It's not even all you can eat so it doesn't make sense to have it like that. read more

Came here to try out this new hype with dipping the spicy chicken in a cheese ring. Spicy Chicken with Cheese ($18.99) It was minimum 2 servings to order this, so essentially it costs $28 bucks to order it since $18.99 is the cost of one serving. The chicken wasn't too spicy, more on the sweet side, really tasty. It came with onions, thinly sliced potatoes, and rice cakes. You also have the option of adding more ingredients if you think its not filling enough. Careful with the cheese though, ours burnt fast and harden - it only tastes good when you dip the chicken in the oosey cheese. If you ordered other items, you might want to just focus on eating the chicken and cheese ring first. I know in most eyes people will think this is a gimmicky kind of thing, which no lie it is, but I'm a cheese lover so I thoroughly enjoyed it. Marinated Pork Ribs ($18.99) & Pork Belly ($16.99) We ordered bbq grill food - marinated pork ribs and pork belly. The marinated pork ribs was for patio only. The meat was tender, not chewy or tough at all which I liked. Goes really well dipping in the soya sauce mixed with raw onions. The pork belly portion was smaller than I expected it to be - came with only 3 long strips and the pieces were really fat, probably 40% meat. After grilling it, mixing it with the spicy onions and korean sauces in a lettuce wrap tastes really good. I still think the pork belly alone lacked flavor though. The grill also comes with a soy bean hot pot soup which was good, but felt small as it was less than half full. The service was not the greatest. We were sitting at the patio outside so it was hard to get a hold of them, and when we did they seemed frustrated. Overall the food was good, I do think its more towards the expensive side but I enjoyed my meal and I would come again. read more

Amazing Korean BBQ here! My gf and I decided to try something new in this plaza and we decided on kobi. The staff was like any other as they greeted us in Korean with smiles on their faces. The menu is not as large as some other restaurants, which to me is fine. Just means the dishes should come out at a certain level of quality. Oh man the Korean bbq was on some next level! We ordered thin slices pork belly and large slices pork belly... it was literally heaven. We had meat sauce, wrap sauce, Kimchi soup, steamed egg soup, Kimchi green onion salad and red onions. Out of most of the Korean places I've been to, I haven't seen so many ingredients to use or eat when doing Korean bbq. The price for kbbq is actually quite cheap compared to other places. Although you have to order rice separately if you want it. I definitely will come back to try more stuff hopefully! I might be stuck on this Korean bbq trip doee read more

It was a nice atmosphere with such welcoming staff. We came with our 2 little ones, ages 4 and 6 and it was great. They really enjoyed their experience.

We will definitely be returning during our next visit! read more

Realistically, it is more of a 3.5 star than a 3. I love cheese and korean food so when someone told me this place had a cheese ring where you could dip your food in, I had to try it. we came for Thursday night dinner and it was BUSY! We waited a solid half an hour if not a little more. The food was tasty, but the a little sweeter than I expected. The cheese was stringy but over time with cooking, became a little chewy. It was more than enough for 2 people. As always, it came with side dishes and a steamed egg soup. The main issue I had was with the service - it was so slow!! The servers were not very attentive. We had to ask 3 different servers just to get a refill of water. It wasn't that they were all busy, a few of them were just standing around. read more

Used to love this place cause of the unlimited side dishes and onion/green onion/lettuce. But it looks like they got rid of the indoor bbq table top cooking...something to do with their ventilation system not working or its under reno. They'll cook the meat in the kitchen and serve it on a plate over a jelly candle. However the table top cooking is still available if you are dine outside in the patio. It looks like they also changed their side dishes and the price of the seafood pancake went up. Overall it wasn't as good as it was before. I would only go back if they brought back the indoor table top cooking so I can cook the meat to my liking. read more

Tried the spicy chicken and cheese. The cheese was a little salty. The chicken was good, and really mild in terms of spiciness. We also had the seafood pancake. Lots of green onions. Taste good but prefer if they were thinner. Service was okay. We had to ask about our seafood pancake when we were almost done our spicy chicken. read more

Delicious chicken and cheese dish for two. Although super cheesy for someone who hasn't eaten much cheese as of late. But delicious nonetheless. And the seafood pancake was also really good but on the oily side. Picked this over the dumplings. read more

The food is very good here. For sure you should Try the BBQ and the chicken or seafood cheese hot pot. Super good, with Korean flavour. No one pick up the call for reservations, when I first time went there, I had to wait for about a hour. So, if you plan to go , better be there early. read more

The meal came with lettuce, bowl of red onions, bowl of spicy cabbage and green onions, bowl of soy paste soup, bowl of steamed egg, rice and five side dishes. There were three sauces, one for soaking the red onions in and two for dipping. Wrapping the meat in lettuce with all the fillings, it was delicious. The pork belly was fat and the grill made the sides crunchy. The marinated beef was tender and flavourful. Pretty expensive considering what comes in an order. It was filling and it was nice to try something new. Ran by real Korean people, waitress wasn't great at English so don't expect answers to questions that are a little too long. She was trying to be helpful but she put the entire plate of meat on the grill all at once. The meat all ended up cooking and couldn't eat it fast enough so had to put it to the side and eat cool meat. Overall, will come back for some lettuce wrapped grilled meat in the future but not anytime soon. read more

Amazing food with amazing company. I was here a week ago to celebrate my friend's birthday. Unfortunately, the vents were being replaced so we couldn't do the table cooking. Everything was cooked in the back and brought to us which was fine. The cheesey dish with spicy chicken was so good! Came with sides and steamed egg. Service was ok, pricing is average. Would come again for the cheese. read more
