We were given water and menus immediately. I ordered some plum soju and my partner ordered a glass of Chardonnay. Both lovely. I went with beef bibimbap (which came with miso soup) and an adorable, delicious caterpillar roll. My partner ordered an Alaska roll and beef bulgogi (which came with ban chan).

I ordered the pork bulgogi and soondubu jjigae, and both were flavorful and comforting. The bulgogi was well-seasoned, and the soondubu had a rich, satisfying broth.

One thing to note: they only accept cash or Visa, no Apple Pay or Amex.

I'd been wanting to try this place for a while but since it's a bit out of the city and in the…read moresuburbs, I didn't walk in with super high expectations. I'm Korean and grew up with Korean food in Chicago, so I know what the real thing tastes like, and this is the real thing. I got the soondae stew and it completely hit the spot. The flavor profile was so authentic and satisfying!! Came out boiling still, so fresh. The banchan selection was great too and the waitress was really sweet about bringing more if you wanted. My only small note is that I wished the side dishes came out a little earlier rather than alongside the main food, because I was starving by the time everything arrived! But that's a minor thing. There's also a karaoke spot right next door that I heard gets pretty lively at night. I haven't made it over there yet but that is absolutely next on my list. 한동안 이곳에 가보고 싶었는데, 시내에서 좀 떨어진 외곽에 있다 보니 솔직히 기대를 크게 하지 않았어요. 그런데 깜짝 놀랐어요. 순대국을 시켰는데 정말 맛있었어요. 맛의 깊이가 딱 제가 찾던 그 느낌이었어요. 반찬 종류도 다양하고 좋았고, 웨이트리스분도 친절하게 더 가져다 주셔서 너무 좋았어요. 한 가지 아쉬운 점은 반찬이 메인 음식이랑 같이 나왔으면 하는 거예요. 너무 배고픈 상태였거든요 그래도 사소한 부분이에요. 바로 옆에 노래방도 있는데 밤에 꽤 활기차다고 들었어요. 아직 가보진 못했지만 다음엔 꼭 가볼 생각이에요.

We had a group of 7 and we ordered 4 dishes (each serving 2) and we had more than enough for at least 2 more people. The side dishes were pretty good. I was particularly happy they provide lettuce for wraps. A lot of places have stopped providing that. The drink menu was pretty good as well with several different options of soju, beer, and makoli. There are also karaoke rooms in back -- we didn't try them this time ... But maybe next time. Everyone left totally full and satisfied.

We're long time Izakaya Ren fans and were very interested to see what the new ownership added to the experience...loved it! Chef Jimmy was great and has added some nice new touches to the menu. He also was kind enough to put together one of our favorite rolls from the past, thank you so much! We started with the seaweed salad and were pleasantly surprised by the addition of thinly sliced cucumber. What a nice addition and it made the salad just a touch larger in portion...very nice starter with great flavor. Then 3 rolls...crazy salmon, corona (our special request) and a rainbow roll. All were fantastic and yes, we also think they are larger in portion! This is the first time we've taken leftovers home and we were both stuffed (in a good way). No let down under new management at all. I anticipate there will be great sushi at Izakaya Ren for a long time to come. And, I can't finish this review without mentioning our server Erica...what a fun, engaging and friendly server. She really made our sushi experience complete. Great job Chef Jimmy, Erica and all the staff at Izakaya Ren...still our favorite sushi restaurant. If you are looking for a fresh take on a previously solid sushi restaurant please give Izakaya Ren a try.

Coming in from AZ, I was pretty shocked how lacking the AYCE KBBQ scene is here, but there was a KPOT in AZ that we didn't try. We finally got to try it here, and really liked the meat quality! I miss the typical banchan options from traditional korean bbq houses, but I really liked their kimchi!! The daikon was also pretty good so those really made the meal for me. There is a whole sauce bar for meats, and fries, egg rolls, and sesame balls. We didn't opt for any hot pot, but we might try it next time. The place was pretty big, and there are two parking lot areas nearby.

I expected Asian style appetizers or something more on theme, the servers brought too much food out at once which caused chaos and confusion, the grills kept turning off, the staff didn't not clear empty dishes fast enough, they need better ventilation. You can see the smoke upon entry and you leave smelling like the food. The ambiance is nice and the place is spacious. Wouldn't recommend for a large group.

TLDR: Good Food, But A Lot of Red Flags…read more I had been wanting to try Shabu Day for a while and finally made it out. The food was honestly really good -- but there is a lot this place needs to fix before I can fully recommend it. The first thing that hit me when I walked in was the smell. And not in a good way. It smelled like a sewer. Not what you want when you are about to sit down and eat. It lingered the entire time we were there and was really hard to get past. The front of the restaurant looks okay at first glance. But once you sit down you start noticing things. The tables are wobbly and clearly rigged up with makeshift fixes. Extension cords are running visibly across the floor which looks bad and feels unsafe. The menus and sauce bottles were sticky -- like they had not been wiped down in a long time. Little things like that add up fast. I caught a glimpse of the back of the house and it looked grimy and dirty. That is a problem at any restaurant, but especially at a place where you are cooking your own food right at the table. The staff were not very welcoming either. They were hard to find when you needed something and did not seem very interested in making sure you were having a good time. Now here is the thing -- the food was actually fresh and delicious. The broth was flavorful and the ingredients were good quality. That part genuinely impressed me. But for the price they are charging? The total package is just not there yet. Good food can only carry a restaurant so far. They need to clean things up -- literally -- before I come back.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ UPDATE: One more thing worth mentioning that I think is really important. Shabu Day is strictly all you can eat -- and that is the only option they offer. For most people that is fine. But for anyone with a medical condition that limits how much they can eat, this format is a serious problem. You are being charged full all you can eat prices for food you physically cannot consume in that quantity. That is not fair and it is not inclusive. A lot of restaurants in this space offer a la carte or smaller portion options for exactly this reason. Shabu Day should do the same. It is a simple change that would make a big difference for a lot of people and would show that they actually care about all of their customers -- not just the ones who can eat the most. Clean things up, fix the smell, train your staff to be more welcoming, and give people a fair way to order. The foundation is there. Now build on it.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
